Mistras Group, Inc. (NYSE:MG ), a leading "one source" global provider of technology-enabled asset protection solutions, reported record financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended May 31, 2011. Revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 was $102.1 million, an increase of 28%, over the $79.8 million reported in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 28% to $17.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 versus $13.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 grew by 27% to $6.7 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, versus $5.3 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.

During the fourth quarter, the Company achieved broad based revenue growth across all of its business segments and surpassed $100 million in quarterly revenue for the first time.
