Safe Harbor Statement 2 This presentation and the accompanying oral discussion contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward looking statements are generally identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms "anticipate," “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “illustrative,” “intend,” “likely,” “may,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “shall,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would” and, in each case, their negative or other various or comparable terminology. Such forward-looking statements include, among others, statements regarding: (1) our strategy, outlook and growth prospects, including the Company's full year fiscal 2027 guidance, consisting of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS for fiscal 2027, as well as the associated assumed inputs for fiscal 2027 regarding interest expense, including the amount of non-cash amortization of deferred financing fees, amortization expense, depreciation expense, effective tax rate and Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding; (2) our operational and financial targets and capital distribution policy, including regarding our expectation that the dividends payable on the Preferred Shares (as defined herein) will be accrued, accumulated and compounded, rather than being paid in cash, during fiscal 2027 (3) general economic trends and trends in our industry and markets; (4) our ability to successfully integrate the Kito Crosby Acquisition and achieve targeted net cost synergies and leverage reduction targets; (5) our ability to expand margins in future periods; and (6) the competitive environment in which we operate. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts, but instead represent our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. It is not possible to predict or identify all such risks. These risks include, but are not limited to, (1) risks relating to the competitive environment in which we operate; (2) the risk that the integration of Kito Crosby's business and operations into the Company will be more costly or difficult to complete than expected, or that the Company is otherwise unable to achieve its target synergies or that the timeline of such net cost synergy realization may be delayed, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; (3) risks related to the general competitive, economic, political and market conditions and other factors that may affect future results of the Company; and (4) the other risk factors that are described under the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 as well as in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are available on its website at www.sec.gov. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Columbus McKinnon undertakes no duty to update publicly any such forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law, regulation or other competent legal authority. Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Forward-looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation will discuss some non-GAAP (“adjusted”) financial measures which we believe are useful in evaluating Columbus McKinnon’s performance. You should not consider the presentation of this additional information in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures are noted and reconciliations of comparable historical GAAP measures with historical non-GAAP financial measures can be found in tables either included in the Supplemental Information portion of this presentation or our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
