Management Comment
“Fiscal 2026 is off to a very strong start as the strength from the first quarter carried into the second quarter, with net sales growing 23.4% and diluted EPS increasing almost 63%. This quarter marks an important milestone for ePlus, as we posted quarterly gross billings exceeding $1 billion for the first time in our history. Our second-quarter performance reflects steady progress in executing our strategic priorities as we reported double-digit growth in key financial metrics: revenue, gross profit, net earnings from continuing operations, Adjusted EBITDA and EPS,” commented Mark Marron, president and CEO of ePlus. “Our results highlight the strength and resiliency of our business.
“We continue to build momentum across our diversified end markets while maintaining disciplined cost management. We ended the quarter with a cash position of $402 million, enabling both organic growth and M&A activity. We completed the acquisition of certain assets of Realwave in the quarter to further enhance our Artificial Intelligence (AI) capabilities, in line with our strategy to invest in fast growing categories including cybersecurity, networking, AI and cloud. Furthermore, our teams are executing on our long-term plan, focused on services, value-added solutions, stable growth, and financial discipline,” concluded Mr. Marron.
Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2026 Results
On June 30, 2025, we completed the sale of our domestic financing business. Consequently, alongside the results of our continuing operations, we are retrospectively presenting the results of our domestic financing business as discontinued operations, for all prior periods.
For the second quarter ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the second quarter ended September 30, 2024:
Consolidated net sales increased 23.4% to $608.8 million, from $493.4 million due to higher product sales and higher service revenue. Gross billings increased 26.5% to $1,022.7 million from $808.2 million.
Product segment sales increased 24.5% to $485.0 million from $389.6 million due to higher cloud, networking, and security products net sales, offset by decreases in net sales of collaboration products. Product segment margin was 24.5%, up from 22.9% last year due to a higher proportion of third-party maintenance and services sold in the current quarter, which are recorded on a net basis.
Professional services segment revenues increased 23.3% year over year to $76.3 million from $61.9 million, primarily due to the acquisition of Bailiwick Services, LLC, which occurred on August 19, 2024. Gross margin decreased to 38.2% from 41.3% during the same period last year due to the addition of Bailiwick Services, LLC whose services are generally at a lower margin than our legacy professional services.
Managed services segment revenue increased 13.5% to $47.4 million primarily due to additional revenue from enhanced maintenance support and cloud services. Gross profit from our managed services segment increased 13.1% from last year due to the increase in revenue, offset by a decline in gross margin to 29.4% from 29.5% in the prior year quarter.
Consolidated gross profit increased 27.4% to $162.1 million, from $127.3 million. Consolidated gross margin was 26.6%, compared with last year of 25.8%.
Consolidated operating expenses were $113.3 million, up 12.9% from $100.3 million last year, primarily due to increases in variable compensation commensurate with the increase in our gross profit, as well as additional salaries and benefits and general and administrative costs.
Consolidated operating income increased 80.9% to $48.8 million. Other income was $5.2 million compared to $0.3 million last year, due to foreign exchange gains recognized in the current three-month period compared to foreign exchange losses recognized in the prior three-month period. Additionally, there was increased interest income. Earnings from continuing operations before tax increased 97.7% to $54.0 million.
Our effective tax rate for the current quarter was 29.3%, higher than the prior year quarter of 27.5%.
Net earnings from continuing operations increased 92.7% to $38.2 million from $19.8 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA increased 61.6% to $58.7 million from $36.3 million in the prior year quarter.

Non-GAAP: Net earnings per common share from continuing operations was $1.53, compared with $0.94 in the prior year quarter.
Earnings from discontinued operations, net of taxes, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was a loss of $3.3 million, as compared to earnings of $11.5 million for the same three-month period in the prior year. The loss was due to a contingent liability of $4.6 million, related to a legal matter from our discontinued operations for which we remain responsible under the terms of the sale of our domestic financing business, offset by an income tax benefit of $1.3 million. Net (loss) earnings from discontinued operations per common share-diluted was $(0.13), compared with $0.43 in the prior year quarter.

Fiscal Year Guidance
Reflecting the strong financial performance to date and momentum we expect to continue, the Company is increasing its fiscal year 2026 net sales, gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA guidance. Net sales are now expected to grow at a rate in the mid-teens from fiscal year 2025’s $2.01 billion from continuing operations. Gross profit is also expected to grow at a rate in the mid-teens from fiscal year 2025's $515.5 million from continuing operations. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to increase from fiscal year 2025’s $141 million at approximately twice the rate of net sales growth for fiscal year 2026, as continuing operations results are expected to benefit from operating leverage.
This guidance does not factor in recessionary conditions or other unexpected developments. ePlus cannot predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort, the ultimate outcome of unusual gains and losses, the occurrence of matters creating GAAP tax impacts, fluctuations in interest expense or interest income and share-based compensation, and acquisition-related expenses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to ePlus' results computed in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, ePlus is unable to provide a reconciliation of GAAP net earnings to adjusted EBITDA for the full fiscal year 2026 forecast.
Summary and Outlook
“We delivered strong second quarter and first half results with record gross billings which reflect significant progress across our business. As a result, we have increased our fiscal year 2026 guidance.
“Looking ahead, we plan to maintain a disciplined capital allocation approach anchored around investment in the business, our capabilities, and areas where we can competitively differentiate ourselves while maintaining a strong balance sheet. By balancing positive performance today with thoughtful investments for tomorrow, we are building a foundation for lasting growth and long-term value creation” concluded Mr. Marron.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP INFORMATION
We included reconciliations below for the following non-GAAP financial measures: (i) Adjusted EBITDA, (ii) Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations and (iii) Non-GAAP Net earnings from continuing operations per common share - diluted.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings from continuing operations calculated in accordance with US GAAP, adjusted for the following: interest expense, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, acquisition and integration expenses, provision for income taxes, and other income (expense).
Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations and Non-GAAP Net earnings from continuing operations per common share - diluted are based on net earnings from continuing operations calculated in accordance with US GAAP, adjusted to exclude other (income) expense, share-based compensation, and acquisition related amortization and integration expenses, and the related tax effects.
We use the above non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures of our performance to gain insight into our operating performance and performance trends. We believe that these financial measures provide management and investors with a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business and operating results by excluding items that management believes are not reflective of our underlying operating performance. Accordingly, we believe that such non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results.
Our use of non-GAAP information as analytical tools has limitations, and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our financial results as reported under US GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, might calculate Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations and Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations per common share-diluted, or similarly titled measures differently, which may reduce their usefulness as comparative measures.
The amounts in the tables below are results from our continuing operations (in thousands):
