Confidence: high Filing date: 2026-05-29 Report date: 2026-04-30 Item 2.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview This discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included herein. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates if different assumptions were used or different events ultimately transpire. Our critical accounting policies, which require management to make judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain, are described in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” under the heading “Critical Accounting Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2025. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended April 30, 2026. Our business is comprised of two operating segments: the Flight Support Group (“FSG”), consisting of HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. and HEICO Flight Support Corp. and their respective subsidiaries; and the Electronic Technologies Group (“ETG”), consisting of HEICO Electronic Technologies Corp. and its subsidiaries. Our results of operations for the six and three months ended April 30, 2026 have been affected by the fiscal 2025 acquisitions as further detailed in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2025 and the fiscal 2026 acquisitions as further detailed in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this quarterly report. 28 Index Results of Operations The following table sets forth the results of our operations, net sales and operating income by segment and the percentage of net sales represented by the respective items in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (in thousands): Six months ended April 30, Three months ended April 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 Net sales $2,554,295  $2,128,042  $1,375,713  $1,097,820  Cost of sales 1,529,806  1,284,576  806,188  660,016  Selling, general and administrative expenses 414,153  368,509  219,088  189,652  Total operating costs and expenses 1,943,959  1,653,085  1,025,276  849,668  Operating income $610,336  $474,957  $350,437  $248,152  Net sales by segment: Flight Support Group $1,749,427  $1,480,244  $929,427  $767,070  Electronic Technologies Group 830,207  672,482  459,532  342,167  Intersegment sales (25,339) (24,684) (13,246) (11,417) $2,554,295  $2,128,042  $1,375,713  $1,097,820  Operating income by segment: Flight Support Group $443,797  $351,096  $243,064  $184,980  Electronic Technologies Group 195,055  154,336  121,809  77,880  Other, primarily corporate (28,516) (30,475) (14,436) (14,708) $610,336  $474,957  $350,437  $248,152  Net sales 100.0 % 100.0 % 100.0 % 100.0 % Gross profit 40.1 % 39.6 % 41.4 % 39.9 % Selling, general and administrative expenses 16.2 % 17.3 % 15.9 % 17.3 % Operating income 23.9 % 22.3 % 25.5 % 22.6 % Interest expense (2.5 %) (3.1 %) (2.5 %) (3.0 %) Other income .1 % .1 % .1 % .1 % Income tax expense 3.7 % 2.8 % 4.9 % 4.1 % Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests 1.2 % 1.3 % 1.2 % 1.3 % Net income attributable to HEICO 16.6 % 15.3 % 17.0 % 14.3 % 29 Index Comparison of First Six Months of Fiscal 2026 to First Six Months of Fiscal 2025 Net Sales Our consolidated net sales in the first six months of fiscal 2026 increased by 20% to a record $2,554.3 million, up from net sales of $2,128.0 million in the first six months of fiscal 2025. The increase in consolidated net sales principally reflects an increase of $269.2 million (an 18% increase) to a record $1,749.4 million in net sales of the FSG and an increase of $157.7 million (a 23% increase) to a record $830.2 million in net sales of the ETG. The net sales increase in the FSG reflects robust organic growth of 16% and net sales of $36.1 million contributed by fiscal 2025 and 2026 acquisitions. The FSG's organic net sales growth reflects increased demand within its aftermarket replacement parts, repair and overhaul parts and services, and specialty products product lines resulting in net sales increases of $161.9 million, $40.3 million, and $30.5 million, respectively. The net sales increase in the ETG reflects very strong organic growth of 12% and net sales of $79.8 million contributed by fiscal 2025 and 2026 acquisitions. The ETG's organic net sales growth is mainly attributable to increased demand for its other electronics, aerospace, and defense products resulting in net sales increases of $30.7 million, $21.8 million, and $19.9 million, respectively. Sales price changes were not a significant contributing factor to the change in net sales of the FSG and ETG in the first six months of fiscal 2026. Gross Profit and Operating Expenses Our consolidated gross profit margin improved to 40.1% in the first six months of fiscal 2026, up from 39.6% in the first six months of fiscal 2025, principally reflecting a .6% increase in the FSG’s gross profit margin. The increase in the FSG's gross profit margin principally reflects a more favorable product mix within its aftermarket replacement parts product line. Total new product research and development expenses included within our consolidated cost of sales were $68.4 million in the first six months of fiscal 2026, up from $56.3 million in the first six months of fiscal 2025. Our consolidated selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $414.2 million in the first six months of fiscal 2026, as compared to $368.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2025. The increase in consolidated SG&A expenses reflects $19.3 million attributable to our fiscal 2025 and 2026 acquisitions, an $11.3 million increase in share-based compensation expense, and costs incurred to support the previously mentioned net sales growth, which resulted in increases of $11.8 million and $3.2 million in other selling expenses and other general and administrative expenses, respectively. Our consolidated SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales improved to 16.2% in the first six months of fiscal 2026, down from 17.3% in the first six months of fiscal 2025. The decrease in consolidated SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales principally reflects efficiencies realized from the previously mentioned net sales growth. 30 Index Operating Income Our consolidated operating income increased by 29% to a record $610.3 million in the first six months of fiscal 2026, up from $475.0 million in the first six months of fiscal 2025. The increase in consolidated operating income principally reflects a $92.7 million increase (a 26% increase) to a record $443.8 million in operating income of the FSG and a $40.7 million increase (a 26% increase) to a record $195.1 million in operating income of the ETG. The increase in operating income of the FSG principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth, SG&A expense efficiencies realized from the net sales growth, and the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin. The increase in operating income of the ETG principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth and SG&A expense efficiencies realized from the net sales growth. Our consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales improved to 23.9% in the first six months of fiscal 2026, up from 22.3% in the first six months of fiscal 2025. The increase in consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects an increase in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales to 25.4% in the first six months of fiscal 2026, up from 23.7% in the first six months of fiscal 2025, and an increase in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales to 23.5% in the first six months of fiscal 2026, up from 23.0% in the first six months of fiscal 2025. The increase in the FSG's operating income as a percentage of net sales reflects a 1.1% impact from a decrease in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales, mainly due to the previously mentioned SG&A expense efficiencies and the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin. The increase in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects the previously mentioned SG&A expense efficiencies. Interest Expense Interest expense decreased to $63.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2026, down from $65.3 million in the first six months of fiscal 2025. The decrease in interest expense was principally due to a lower weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, partially offset by an increase in the amount of debt outstanding. Other Income Other income in the first six months of fiscal 2026 and 2025 was not material. Income Tax Expense Our effective tax rate was 17.1% in the first six months of fiscal 2026, as compared to 14.4% in the first six months of fiscal 2025. The increase in our effective tax rate principally reflects a smaller tax benefit from stock option exercises recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. We recognized a discrete tax benefit from stock option exercises in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and 2025 of $22.3 million and $27.2 million, respectively. 31 Index Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests relates to the 20% noncontrolling interest held by Lufthansa Technik AG in HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. and the noncontrolling interests held by others in certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $31.1 million in the first six months of fiscal 2026, as compared to $27.3 million in the first six months of fiscal 2025. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests principally reflects improved operating results of certain subsidiaries in which noncontrolling interests are held. Net Income Attributable to HEICO Net income attributable to HEICO increased by 31% to a record $424.0 million, or $3.01 per diluted share, in the first six months of fiscal 2026, up from $324.7 million, or $2.31 per diluted share, in the first six months of fiscal 2025, principally reflecting the previously mentioned higher consolidated operating income. Comparison of Second Quarter of Fiscal 2026 to Second Quarter of Fiscal 2025 Net Sales Our consolidated net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 increased by 25% to a record $1,375.7 million, up from net sales of $1,097.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase in consolidated net sales principally reflects an increase of $162.4 million (a 21% increase) to a record $929.4 million in net sales of the FSG and an increase of $117.4 million (a 34% increase) to a record $459.5 million in net sales of the ETG. The net sales increase in the FSG reflects strong organic growth of 19% and net sales of $17.4 million contributed by fiscal 2026 acquisitions. The FSG's organic net sales growth reflects increased demand within its aftermarket replacement parts, specialty products, and repair and overhaul parts and services product lines resulting in net sales increases of $102.4 million, $22.7 million, and $19.7 million, respectively. The net sales increase in the ETG reflects strong orga [Excerpt truncated for page length; source filing is linked above.] ## Latest 10-K MD&A Extracted from Item 7 to the first post-MD&A boundary after HTML sanitization.

Additionally, our results of operations in fiscal 2025 have been affected by recent acquisitions as further detailed in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 35 Index Presentation of Results of Operations and Liquidity and Capital Resources     The following discussion and analysis of our Results of Operations and Liquidity and Capital Resources includes a comparison of fiscal 2025 to fiscal 2024. A similar discussion and analysis that compares fiscal 2024 to fiscal 2023 may be found in Item 7, "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024. Results of Operations     The following table sets forth the results of our operations, net sales and operating income by segment and the percentage of net sales represented by the respective items in our Consolidated Statements of Operations (in thousands): Year ended October 31, 2025 2024 Net sales $4,485,044  $3,857,669  Cost of sales 2,698,580  2,355,943  Selling, general and administrative expenses 767,466  677,271  Total operating costs and expenses 3,466,046  3,033,214  Operating income $1,018,998  $824,455  Net sales by segment and intersegment: Flight Support Group $3,117,277  $2,639,354  Electronic Technologies Group 1,413,120  1,263,626  Intersegment sales (45,353) (45,311) $4,485,044  $3,857,669  Operating income by segment and corporate and other: Flight Support Group $750,395  $593,074  Electronic Technologies Group 324,952  288,193  Other, primarily corporate (56,349) (56,812) $1,018,998  $824,455  Net sales 100.0 % 100.0 % Gross profit 39.8 % 38.9 % Selling, general and administrative expenses 17.1 % 17.6 % Operating income 22.7 % 21.4 % Interest expense (2.9 %) (3.9 %) Other income .1 % .1 % Income tax expense 3.3 % 3.1 % Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests 1.2 % 1.2 % Net income attributable to HEICO 15.4 % 13.3 % 36 Index Comparison of Fiscal 2025 to Fiscal 2024 Net Sales Our consolidated net sales in fiscal 2025 increased by 16% to a record $4,485.0 million, up from net sales of $3,857.7 million in fiscal 2024. The increase in consolidated net sales principally reflects an increase of $477.9 million (an 18% increase) to a record $3,117.3 million in net sales of the FSG and an increase of $149.5 million (a 12% increase) to a record $1,413.1 million in net sales of the ETG. The net sales increase in the FSG reflects strong organic growth of 14% and net sales of $110.6 million contributed by fiscal 2025 and 2024 acquisitions. The FSG's organic net sales growth reflects increased demand within its aftermarket replacement parts, repair and overhaul parts and services, and specialty products product lines resulting in net sales increases of $263.9 million, $67.8 million and $35.6 million, respectively. The net sales increase in the ETG reflects strong organic growth of 7% and net sales of $63.9 million contributed by fiscal 2025 and 2024 acquisitions. The ETG's organic net sales growth is mainly attributable to increased demand for its defense, space, other electronics, and aerospace products resulting in net sales increases of $29.6 million, $28.4 million, $20.6 million, and $16.2 million, respectively, partially offset by decreased demand for its medical products resulting in a net sales decrease of $9.4 million. Sales price changes were not a significant contributing factor to the change in net sales of the FSG and ETG in fiscal 2025. Our net sales in fiscal 2025 and 2024 by market consisted of approximately 58% and 56% from the commercial aviation industry, respectively, 31% and 32% from the defense and space industries, respectively, and 11% and 12% from other industrial markets including electronics, medical and telecommunications, respectively. Gross Profit and Operating Expenses Our consolidated gross profit margin improved to 39.8% in fiscal 2025, up from 38.9% in fiscal 2024, principally reflecting a 1.5% increase in the FSG's gross profit margin. The increase in the FSG's gross profit margin principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth within its repair and overhaul parts and services product line and a more favorable product mix within the specialty products product line. Total new product research and development expenses included within our consolidated cost of sales were $120.9 million in fiscal 2025, up from $111.3 million in fiscal 2024. Our consolidated selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $767.5 million in fiscal 2025, as compared to $677.3 million in fiscal 2024. The increase in consolidated SG&A expenses principally reflects $31.0 million attributable to our fiscal 2025 and 2024 acquisitions, $22.8 million due to changes in the estimated fair value of accrued contingent consideration, $17.5 million of higher other selling expenses, and a $15.6 million increase in share-based compensation expense. Our consolidated SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales improved to 17.1% in fiscal 2025, down from 17.6% in fiscal 2024. The decrease in consolidated SG&A expenses as a 37 Index percentage of net sales principally reflects efficiencies realized from the previously mentioned net sales growth, partially offset by a .5% impact from the previously mentioned changes in the estimated fair value of accrued contingent consideration. Operating Income Our consolidated operating income increased by 24% to a record $1,019.0 million in fiscal 2025, up from $824.5 million in fiscal 2024. The increase in consolidated operating income principally reflects a $157.3 million increase (a 27% increase) to a record $750.4 million in operating income of the FSG and a $36.8 million increase (a 13% increase) to a record $325.0 million in operating income of the ETG. The increase in operating income of the FSG principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth, improved gross profit margin, and SG&A expense efficiencies realized from the net sales growth. The increase in operating income of the ETG principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth and SG&A expense efficiencies realized from the net sales growth. Our consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales improved to 22.7% in fiscal 2025, up from 21.4% in fiscal 2024. The increase in consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects an increase in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales to 24.1% in fiscal 2025, up from 22.5% in fiscal 2024, and an increase in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales to 23.0% in fiscal 2025, up from 22.8% in fiscal 2024. The increase in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin. Interest Expense Interest expense decreased to $129.9 million in fiscal 2025, down from $149.3 million in fiscal 2024. The decrease in interest expense was principally due to a lower weighted-average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility and a decrease in the amount of outstanding debt. Other Income     Other income in fiscal 2025 and 2024 was not material. Income Tax Expense Our effective tax rate decreased to 16.6% in fiscal 2025, down from 17.5% in fiscal 2024. The decrease in our effective tax rate principally reflects a larger tax benefit from stock option exercises recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. We recognized a discrete tax benefit from stock option exercises in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 of $27.2 million and $13.6 million, respectively. 38 Index Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests     Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests relates to the 20% noncontrolling interest held by Lufthansa Technik AG in HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. and the noncontrolling interests held by others in certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $55.2 million in fiscal 2025, as compared to $45.0 million in fiscal 2024. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests principally reflects improved operating results of certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG in which noncontrolling interests are held. Net Income Attributable to HEICO Net income attributable to HEICO increased by 34% to a record $690.4 million, or $4.90 per diluted share, in fiscal 2025, up from $514.1 million, or $3.67 per diluted share, in fiscal 2024, principally reflecting the previously mentioned higher consolidated operating income. Outlook Looking ahead to fiscal 2026, we anticipate net sales growth in both the FSG and ETG, driven by organic growth from increased demand for the majority of our products as well as growth through our recent acquisitions. We will continue to pursue selective acquisition opportunities to complement this growth. Our disciplined financial management remains dedicated to creating long-term shareholder value through a balanced combination of making strategic acquisitions and organic expansion, while maintaining financial resilience and flexibility. Inflation We have generally experienced increases in our costs of labor, materials and services consistent with overall rates of inflation. The impact of such increases on net income attributable to HEICO has been generally minimized by efforts to lower costs through manufacturing efficiencies and cost reductions as well as selective price increases. Liquidity and Capital Resources     The following table summarizes our capitalization (in thousands): As of October 31, 2025 2024 Cash and cash equivalents $217,781  $162,103  Total debt (including current portion) 2,167,945  2,229,374  Shareholders’ equity 4,379,175  3,697,406  Total capitalization (debt plus equity) 6,547,120  5,926,780  Total debt to total capitalization 33% 38% 39 Index     Our principal uses of cash include acquisitions, interest payments, capital expenditures, cash dividends, distributions to noncontrolling interests and working capital needs. Capital expenditures in fiscal 2026 are anticipated to be approximately $80 to $90 million. We finance our activities primarily from our operating and financing activities, including borrowings under our revolving credit facility.     As of December 19, 2025, we had approximately $1,078 million of unused committed availability under the terms of our revolving credit facility. Based on our current outlook, we believe that net cash provided by operating activities and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. Operating Activities Net cash provided by operating activities was $934.3 million in fiscal 2025 and consisted primarily of net income from consolidated operations of $745.6 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $196.1 million (a non-cash item), $34.4 million in share-based compensation expense (a non-cash item), net changes in other long-term liabilities and assets related to the HEICO Corporation Leadership Compensation Plan (the "LCP") of $23.5 million (principally participant deferrals and employer contributions), and $20.4 million in employer contributions to the HEICO Savings and Investment Plan (a non-cash item), partially offset by a $58.7 million increase in net working capital and a $48.6 million deferred income tax benefit (a non-cash item). The increase in net working capital is inclusive of a $75.6 million increase in accounts receivable resulting from increased net sales and timing of collections, and a $44.9 million increase in inventories to support an increase in consolidated backlog, partially offset by a $44.6 million increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and a $15.4 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $261.9 million (a 39% increase) in fiscal 2025, up from $672.4 million in fiscal 2024. The increase is principally attributable to a $186.5 million increase in net income from consolidated operations, an $84.3 million decrease in net working capital, principally reflecting a lower investment in inventories, a $22.8 million increase in accrued contingent consideration, a $20.7 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense and a $15.6 million increase in share-based compensation expense, partially offset by a $42.7 million decrease in the "Other" caption mainly from a larger receipt of advance long-term customer deposits in fiscal 2024 and a $26.6 million increase in deferred income tax benefits. Net cash provided by operating activities was $672.4 million in fiscal 2024 and consisted primarily of net income from consolidated operations of $559.1 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $175.3 million (a non-cash item), net changes of $53.5 million included in the "Other" caption (principally the receipt of advance deposits on certain long-term customer contracts), net changes in other long-term liabilities and assets related to the LCP of $21.6 million (principally participant deferrals and employer contributions), and $7.5 million of intangible asset impairment expense (a non-cash item), partially offset by a $143.0 million 40 Index increase in net working capital. The increase in net working capital principally reflects a $132.9 million increase in inventories to support an increase in consolidated backlog. Investing Activities Net cash used in investing activities totaled $731.7 million in fiscal 2025 and related primarily to acquisitions of $629.8 million, capital expenditures of $72.9 million, and LCP funding of $33.0 million. Further details regarding our acquisitions may be found in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Net cash used in investing activities totaled $293.2 million in fiscal 2024 and related primarily to acquisitions of $219.3 million, capital expenditures of $58.3 million, and LCP funding of $19.9 million. Financing Activities Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2025 totaled $150.7 million. During fiscal 2025, we made $550.0 million of payments on our revolving credit facility, $38.5 million of distributions to noncontrolling interests, paid $32.0 million of cash dividends on our common stock, and redeemed $22.4 million of common stock related to stock option exercises, partially offset by $495.0 million of borrowings on our revolving credit facility to fund certain fiscal 2025 acquisitions. Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2024 totaled $389.4 million. During fiscal 2024, we made $365.0 million of payments on our revolving credit facility and $34.3 million of distributions to noncontrolling interests, redeemed $29.9 million of common stock related to stock option exercises, paid $29.1 million of cash dividends on our common stock and $26.6 million to acquire certain noncontrolling interests, and made $24.8 million of contingent consideration payments and $13.9 million of net payments on short-term debt, partially offset by $130.0 million of borrowings on our revolving credit facility to fund certain fiscal 2024 acquisitions. Revolving Credit Facility In November 2017, we entered into a $1.3 billion Revolving Credit Facility Agreement ("Credit Facility") with a bank syndicate. The Credit Facility may be used to finance acquisitions and for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures. In December 2020, we entered into an amendment to increase the capacity by $200 million to $1.5 billion. In April 2022, we entered into an amendment to extend the maturity date of our Credit Facility by one year to November 2024 and to replace the Eurocurrency Rate with Adjusted Term SOFR as an election in which borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest, as such capitalized terms are defined in the Credit Facility. In July 2023, we entered into a third amendment to our Credit Facility, to, among other things, (i) increase the capacity by $500 million to $2.0 billion, (ii) extend the maturity date to July 2028, and (iii) increase the applicable rate with respect to certain total leverage ratio tiers in the pricing 41 Index grid. The Credit Facility includes a feature that will allow us to increase the capacity by $750 million to become a $2.75 billion facility through increased commitments from existing lenders. Borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at our election of the Base Rate or Adjusted Term SOFR, plus in each case, the Applicable Rate (based on the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio), as such capitalized terms are defined in the Credit Facility. The Base Rate for any day is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) the Prime Rate; (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus .50%; and (iii) Adjusted Term SOFR for an Interest Period of one month plus 100 basis points. Adjusted Term SOFR is the rate per annum equal to Term SOFR plus a Term SOFR Adjustment of .10%; provided that Adjusted Term SOFR as so determined shall never be less than 0%. The Applicable Rate for SOFR Loans ranges from 1.125% to 2.00%. The Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans ranges from .125% to 1.00%. A fee is charged on the amount of the unused commitment ranging from .15% to .35% (depending on the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio). The Credit Facility also includes a $200 million sublimit for swingline borrowings and $100 million sublimits for borrowings made in foreign currencies and for letters of credit. Outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts payable under the Credit Facility may be accelerated upon an event of default, as such events are described in the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility is unsecured and contains covenants that require, among other things, the maintenance of a Total Leverage Ratio and an Interest Coverage Ratio, as such capitalized terms are defined in the Credit Facility. We were in compliance with all financial and nonfinancial covenants of the Credit Facility as of October 31, 2025. Senior Unsecured Notes On July 27, 2023, we completed the public offer and sale of senior unsecured notes, which consisted of $600 million principal amount of 5.25% Senior Notes due August 1, 2028 (the "2028 Notes") and $600 million principal amount of 5.35% Senior Notes due August 1, 2033 (the "2033 Notes" and, collectively with the 2028 Notes, the "Notes"). Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, and commenced on February 1, 2024. The 2028 Notes and 2033 Notes each have an effective interest rate of 5.5%. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of our existing and future subsidiaries that guarantee our obligations under the Credit Facility (the “Guarantor Group”). We were in compliance with all covenants related to the Notes as of October 31, 2025. Other Obligations and Commitments The holders of equity interests in certain of our subsidiaries have rights (“Put Rights”) that require us to provide cash consideration for their equity interests (the “Redemption Amount”) at fair value or at a formula that management intended to reasonably approximate fair value based solely on a multiple of future earnings over a measurement period. As of October 31, 2025, management’s estimate of the aggregate Redemption Amount of all Put Rights that we could be required to pay is approximately $467.4 million, which is included within redeemable noncontrolling interests in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The estimated aggregate Redemption Amount of the Put Rights that are currently puttable, previously put, or becoming 42 Index puttable during fiscal 2026 is approximately $191.4 million, of which approximately $94.6 million would be payable in fiscal 2026 should all of the eligible associated noncontrolling interest holders elect to exercise their Put Rights during fiscal 2026. See Note 13, Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. See Note 5, Long-Term Debt, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding our long-term debt obligations. See Note 8, Fair Value Measurements, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information pertaining to contingent consideration obligations. As of October 31, 2025, none of the estimated fair value of contingent consideration was payable in fiscal 2026. See Note 9, Leases, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information pertaining to future minimum lease payments relating to the Company’s operating and finance lease obligations. Guarantor Group Summarized Financial Information The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of July 27, 2023 (the “Base Indenture”), between HEICO and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Subsidiary Guarantors") and Truist Bank, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of July 27, 2023 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), between us, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. The Notes are direct, unsecured senior obligations of HEICO and rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. Each Subsidiary Guarantor is owned either directly or indirectly by the Company and jointly and severally guarantee our obligations under the Notes. None of the Subsidiary Guarantors are organized outside of the U.S. A list of the Subsidiary Guarantors is set forth in Exhibit 22 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Under the Indenture, holders of the Notes will be deemed to have consented to the release of a subsidiary guarantee provided by a subsidiary guarantor, without any action required on the part of the Trustee or any holder of the Notes, upon such subsidiary guarantor ceasing to guarantee or to be an obligor with respect to the Credit Facility. Accordingly, if the lenders under the Credit Facility release a subsidiary guarantor from its guarantee of, or obligations as a borrower under, the Credit Facility, the obligations of the subsidiary guarantors to guarantee the Notes will immediately terminate. If any of our future subsidiaries incur obligations under the Credit Facility while the Notes are outstanding, then such subsidiary will be required to guarantee the Notes. In addition, a subsidiary guarantor will be released and relieved from all its obligations under its subsidiary guarantee in the following circumstances, each of which is permitted by the indenture: 43 Index •upon the sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger), in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of a majority of the total voting stock of such subsidiary guarantor (other than to us or any of our affiliates); or •upon the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the property of such subsidiary guarantor (other than to any of our affiliates or another subsidiary guarantor); provided, however, that, in each case, such transaction is permitted by the Credit Facility and after giving effect to such transaction, such subsidiary guarantor is no longer liable for any subsidiary guarantee or other obligations in respect of the Credit Facility. The subsidiary guarantee of a subsidiary guarantor also will be released if we exercise our legal defeasance, covenant defeasance option or discharge the Indenture. We conduct our operations almost entirely through our subsidiaries. Accordingly, the Guarantor Group’s cash flow and ability to service any guaranteed registered debt securities will depend on the earnings of our subsidiaries and the distribution of those earnings to the Guarantor Group, including the earnings of the non-guarantor subsidiaries, whether by dividends, loans or otherwise. Holders of the guaranteed registered debt securities will have a direct claim only against the Guarantor Group. The following tables include summarized financial information for the Guarantor Group (in thousands). The information for the Guarantor Group is presented on a combined basis, excluding intercompany balances and transactions between us and the Guarantor Group and excluding investments in and equity in the earnings of non-guarantor subsidiaries. The Guarantor Group’s amounts due from, amounts due to, and transactions with non-guarantor subsidiaries have been presented in separate line items. The consolidating schedules are provided in accordance with the reporting requirements of Rule 13-01 under SEC Regulation S-X for the issuer and guarantor subsidiaries. As of October 31, 2025 Current assets (excluding net intercompany receivable from non-guarantor subsidiaries) $1,927,805  Noncurrent assets 5,280,470  Net intercompany receivable from/ (payable to) non-guarantor subsidiaries 260,672  Current liabilities (excluding net intercompany payable to non-guarantor subsidiaries) 721,365  Noncurrent liabilities 2,751,782  Redeemable noncontrolling interests 337,818  Noncontrolling interests 63,792  44 Index Year ended October 31, 2025 Net sales $3,808,827  Gross profit 1,487,664  Operating income 879,170  Net income from consolidated operations 739,571  Net income attributable to HEICO 695,407  Year ended October 31, 2025 Intercompany net sales $13,182  Intercompany management fee 4,236  Intercompany interest income 9,488  Intercompany dividends 99,327  Critical Accounting Estimates     We believe that the following are our most critical accounting estimates, which require management to make judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain.     Assumptions utilized to determine fair value in connection with business combinations, contingent consideration arrangements and in goodwill and intangible assets impairment tests are highly judgmental. If there is a material change in such assumptions or if there is a material change in the conditions or circumstances influencing fair value, we could be required to recognize a material impairment charge. See Item 1A., Risk Factors, for a list of factors which may cause our actual results to differ materially from anticipated results. Valuation of Inventory Inventory is reported at the lower of cost or net realizable value, determined using either the first-in, first-out method or the average cost basis. Any losses are recognized entirely in the period of identification. We regularly assess the carrying value of inventory, considering factors such as its physical condition, sales trends, and anticipated future demand to estimate provisions for slow-moving, obsolete, or damaged inventory. Our inventory valuation reserves are established through analysis and estimates that consider many factors such as current order levels, forecasted demand, market conditions, and expected product life cycles. Changes in business or economic conditions, consumer confidence, market dynamics, demand fluctuations, evolving technology, or inaccurate demand projections may necessitate adjustments to these reserves. Should actual market conditions deviate from management's expectations, additional provisions for excess and obsolete inventory could be required and may be material to our results of operations. Changes 45 Index in estimates did not have a material effect on net income from consolidated operations in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023. Business Combinations We allocate the purchase price of acquired entities to the underlying tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities and any noncontrolling interests assumed based on their estimated fair values, with any excess recorded as goodwill. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities and noncontrolling interests assumed requires management’s judgment and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. For example, the fair value of intangible assets acquired considers forecasts of future cash flows, revenue, earnings, royalty rates, discount rates and asset lives. We determine the fair values of intangible assets acquired generally in consultation with third-party valuation advisors. As part of the agreement to acquire certain subsidiaries, we may be obligated to pay contingent consideration should the acquired entity meet certain earnings objectives subsequent to the date of acquisition. As of the acquisition date, contingent consideration is recorded at fair value as determined using a probability-based scenario analysis approach. Under this method, a set of discrete potential future subsidiary earnings is determined using internal estimates based on various revenue growth rate assumptions for each scenario. A probability of likelihood is then assigned to each discrete potential future earnings estimate and the resultant contingent consideration is calculated and discounted using a weighted average discount rate reflecting the credit risk of HEICO. Changes in either the revenue growth rates, related earnings or the discount rate could result in a material change to the amount of contingent consideration accrued. As of October 31, 2025 and 2024, $46.2 million and $30.2 million of contingent consideration was accrued within our Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively. During fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, such fair value measurement adjustments resulted in net increases (decreases) to SG&A expenses of $12.9 million, ($9.9) million and ($.7) million, respectively. For further information regarding our contingent consideration arrangements, see Note 8, Fair Value Measurements, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Valuation of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets We test goodwill for impairment annually as of October 31, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may exceed its fair value. When testing goodwill for impairment, we may perform a qualitative assessment as the initial step for all or selected reporting units. We are also allowed to bypass the qualitative analysis and perform a quantitative analysis if desired. When performing the qualitative test, we consider factors including, but not limited to, macroeconomic conditions, industry conditions, the competitive environment, changes in the market for our products and services, regulatory and political developments, entity specific factors such as strategy and changes in key personnel, and overall financial performance. If, after completing this assessment, it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we proceed to a quantitative impairment test. 46 Index When performing the quantitative impairment test, we compare the fair value of each of our reporting units to its carrying value to determine potential impairment and an impairment loss is recognized in the amount by which the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its fair value. The fair values of our reporting units are determined using a weighted average of a market approach and an income approach. The market approach estimates the value of reporting units by comparing to guideline public companies or guideline transactions. Various valuation multiples are calculated utilizing financial data of companies that are economically and operationally similar resulting in ranges of multiples. Judgmental adjustments are often necessary to ensure comparability. The selection of the appropriate multiple within a range requires judgment, considering various qualitative and quantitative factors. Changes in assumptions or estimates could materially affect the estimated fair value of our reporting units and the potential for impairment. The income approach estimates fair value by taking estimated future cash flows that are based on internal projections and other assumptions deemed reasonable by management and discounting them using an estimated weighted average cost of capital. Assumptions used in the analysis include estimated future revenues and expenses, the weighted average cost of working capital, capital expenditures, and other variables. The discount rate utilized for each reporting unit is indicative of the return an investor would expect to receive for investing in such a business. Based on the annual goodwill impairment test as of October 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, we determined there was no impairment of our goodwill. The fair value of each of our reporting units calculated as part of our quantitative impairment test significantly exceeded its carrying value as of October 31, 2025. We test each non-amortizing intangible asset (principally trade names) for impairment annually as of October 31, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. To derive the fair value of our trade names, we utilize an income approach, which relies upon management's assumptions of royalty rates, projected revenues and discount rates. We also test each amortizing intangible asset for impairment if events or circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The test consists of determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, we recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. The determination of fair value requires us to make a number of estimates, assumptions and judgments of underlying factors such as projected revenues and related earnings as well as discount rates. Based on the intangible impairment tests conducted, we recognized no impairment loss in fiscal 2025, an aggregate impairment loss of $7.5 million during fiscal 2024, and an immaterial impairment loss in fiscal 2023. The impairment loss we recognized in fiscal 2024 related to the write-down of trade names at two ETG subsidiaries due to a reduction in the expected future cash flows associated with such intangible assets. The impairment loss was recorded as a component of SG&A expenses in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations. See Note 8, Fair Value Measurements, for additional information regarding the Company’s fiscal 2024 impairment loss. 47 Index New Accounting Pronouncements     See Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - New Accounting Pronouncements, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
