Third Quarter Business Highlights

Our strong balance sheet and positive cash flow have allowed us to further invest in our leading proprietary technology platforms such as Intellify and xPerience.”

Exhibit 99.1
Update on Merger with Aya Healthcare

On December 3, 2024, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (Merger Agreement) with Aya Holdings II Inc., a Delaware corporation (Parent), Spark Merger Sub One Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (Merger Sub), and, solely for purposes of Section 11.14 thereto, Aya Healthcare, Inc. (Aya Healthcare), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (Aya Merger). The consummation of the Aya Merger is subject to the satisfaction of a number of closing conditions, including, without limitation, stockholder approval which was received at a special meeting held on February 28, 2025 and the successful completion of a review by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (HSR Act). On February 20, 2025, the Company and Aya Healthcare each received a request for additional information (Second Request) from the FTC in connection with the FTC’s review of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. As of August 29, 2025, each of the Company and Aya Healthcare had certified to the FTC that it had substantially complied with the Second Request and, as a result of discussions with the FTC, the HSR waiting period was set to expire on November 17, 2025. In addition, the Aya Merger end date was extended from September 3, 2025 to December 3, 2025. However, the FTC is closed during the government shutdown and the expiry of the HSR waiting period extends day-for-day while the government shutdown continues. As a result, absent any further agreement from the FTC, the HSR waiting period is now set to expire after the end date contemplated by the Merger Agreement, which is currently December 3, 2025. Absent agreement between the Company and Aya, if the transaction has not closed by December 3, 2025, either party may terminate the Merger Agreement. The Company and Aya are currently discussing an extension of the end date beyond December 3, 2025, but there can be no assurance that an agreement with respect to an extension will be reached. If the Aya Merger is completed, the Company will become a private company and its common stock will no longer trade on Nasdaq.

Conference Call

As previously disclosed, on December 3, 2024, the Company entered into a merger agreement with Aya Healthcare, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (Aya Merger, and such agreement, the Merger Agreement). In light of the pending transaction, the Company will not host an earnings conference call to review third quarter 2025 financial results, nor will it provide forward-looking guidance. This press release is also posted on the Company’s website at ir.crosscountry.com.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and the accompanying financial statement tables reference non-GAAP financial measures, such as gross profit margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and adjusted EPS. Such non-GAAP financial measures are provided as additional information and should not be considered substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures are provided for consistency and comparability to prior year results; furthermore, management believes such non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors when evaluating the Company’s performance, as such non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items that management believes are not indicative of the Company’s future operating performance. Pro forma measures, if applicable, are adjusted to include the results of our acquisitions, and exclude the results of divestments, as if the transactions occurred in the beginning of the periods mentioned. Such non-GAAP financial measures may differ materially from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The financial statement tables that accompany this press release include a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure and a more detailed discussion of each financial measure; as such, the financial statement tables should be read in conjunction with the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any statements contained in this press release that are not statements of historical fact, including statements relating to our future results (including business trends); statements regarding the proposed Aya Merger; the expected timing and closing of the proposed Aya Merger; the Company’s ability to consummate the proposed Aya Merger; the expected benefits of the proposed Aya Merger and other considerations taken into account by the Board in approving the proposed Aya Merger; the amounts to be received by stockholders in connection with the proposed Aya Merger; and expectations for the Company prior to and following the closing of the proposed Aya Merger, may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. All such forward-looking statements are intended to provide management’s current expectations for the future of the Company based on current expectations and assumptions relating to the Company’s business, the economy and other future conditions. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified through the use of words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “plans,” “projects,” “expects,” “expectations,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “predicts,” “targets,” “prospects,” “strategy,” “signs,” and other words of similar meaning in connection with the discussion of future performance, plans, actions or events. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others: (i) the timing to consummate the proposed Aya Merger, (ii) the risk that a condition of closing of the proposed Aya Merger may not be satisfied or that the closing of the proposed Aya Merger might otherwise not occur, (iii) the risk that the Aya Merger may not be completed on the terms or in the time frame expected by the Company, due to such factors as delays in obtaining regulatory approvals due to the U.S. government shutdown that began in October 2025, (iv) the diversion of management time on transaction-related issues, (v) risks related to disruption of management time from ongoing business operations due to the proposed Aya Merger, (vi) the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed Aya Merger could have adverse effects on the market price of the common stock of the Company, (vii) the risk that the proposed Aya Merger and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of the Company to retain customers and retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with its suppliers and customers, (viii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance or condition that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement,
4
Exhibit 99.1
including in circumstances requiring the Company to pay a termination fee, (ix) the risk that competing offers will be made, (x) unexpected costs, impairments, fees, charges or expenses resulting from the Aya Merger, (xi) potential litigation relating to the Aya Merger that could be instituted against the parties to the Merger Agreement or their respective directors, managers or officers, including the effects of any outcomes related thereto, (xii) worldwide economic or political changes that affect the markets that the Company’s businesses serve which could have an effect on demand for the Company’s services and impact the Company’s profitability, (xiii) effects from global pandemics, epidemics or other public health crises, (xiv) changes in marketplace conditions, such as alternative modes of healthcare delivery, reimbursement and customer needs, and (xv) disruptions in the global credit and financial markets, including diminished liquidity and credit availability, changes in international trade agreements, including tariffs and trade restrictions, cyber-security vulnerabilities, foreign currency volatility, swings in consumer confidence and spending, costs of providing services, retention of key employees, and outcomes of legal proceedings, claims and investigations. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by these forward-looking statements. Investors, therefore, are cautioned against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. Additional information regarding the factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements is available in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including the risks and uncertainties identified in Part I, Item 1A - Risk Factors of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as amended by Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A, and in the Company’s other filings with the SEC. The list of factors is not intended to be exhaustive.

These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this press release, and the Company does not assume any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement made in this press release or that may from time to time be made by or on behalf of the Company.

(a) Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, acquisition and integration-related (benefits) costs, restructuring (benefits) costs, legal and other losses, customer bankruptcy loss, impairment charges, gain or loss on derivative, loss on early extinguishment of debt, gain or loss on disposal of fixed assets, gain or loss on lease termination, gain or loss on sale of business, interest income, other expense (income), net, equity compensation, and system conversion costs. Adjusted EBITDA is not and should not be considered a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Management presents Adjusted EBITDA because it believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplement to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders as an indicator of operating performance. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes and as one performance measure in its incentive programs for certain members of its management team. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined, closely matches the operating measure as defined by the Company’s credit facilities. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by the Company’s consolidated revenue.
(b)    Acquisition and integration costs relate primarily to fees associated with the pending Aya Merger.
(c)    Restructuring costs were primarily comprised of employee termination costs, lease-related exit costs, and reorganization costs as part of planned cost savings initiatives.
(d)    Includes legal costs and other settlement charges as presented on the consolidated statements of operations and losses pertaining to matters outside the normal course of operations, and $19.4 million of credit loss expense driven by a bankruptcy filing by a single large customer for the nine months ending September 30, 2024.
(e)    Impairment charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were related to right-of-use assets and related property in connection with vacated leases during 2024.
(f)    Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 related to higher average cash on hand deposited in interest bearing accounts during the period.
(g)    System conversion costs include enterprise resource planning system costs related to the upgrading and integrating of our middle and back-office platforms, with certain development costs capitalized and amortized in accordance with the Company’s policies.
(h)    Adjusted EPS, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders per diluted share before the diluted EPS impact of acquisition and integration-related (benefits) costs, restructuring (benefits) costs, legal and other losses, customer bankruptcy loss, impairment charges, gain or loss on derivative, loss on early extinguishment of debt, gain or loss on sale of business, system conversion costs, and nonrecurring income tax adjustments. Adjusted EPS is not and should not be considered a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Management presents Adjusted EPS because it believes that Adjusted EPS is a useful supplement to its reported EPS as an indicator of operating performance. Management believes Adjusted EPS provides a more useful comparison of the Company’s underlying business performance from period to period and is more representative of the future earnings capacity of the Company than EPS. Quarterly non-GAAP adjustment may vary due to rounding.

(j)     Contribution income is defined as income (loss) from operations before depreciation and amortization, acquisition and integration-related (benefits) costs, restructuring (benefits) costs, legal and other losses, impairment charges, and corporate overhead. Contribution income is a financial measure used by management when assessing segment performance.
(k)     Corporate overhead includes unallocated executive leadership and other centralized corporate functional support costs such as finance, IT, legal, human resources, as well as public company expenses and Company-wide projects (initiatives).
(l)    Legal and other losses (gains) include legal costs and other settlement charges as presented on the consolidated statements of operations and losses pertaining to matters outside the normal course of operations.
(m)    Gross profit is defined as revenue from services less direct operating expenses. The Company’s gross profit excludes allocated depreciation and amortization expense. Gross profit margin is calculated by dividing gross profit by revenue from services.
(n)    FTEs represent the average number of Nurse and Allied Staffing contract personnel on a full-time equivalent basis.
(o)     Average revenue per FTE per day is calculated by dividing Nurse and Allied Staffing revenue, excluding permanent placement, per FTE by the number of days worked in the respective periods.
