NN INC Q3 FY26 Results

NN has delivered several consecutive years of improved adjusted EBITDA and sales growth wins, is now benefitting from the launching of these programs, and has a solid multi-year outlook for continued growth. This enabled the Company to initiate a transformation of its equity and debt structure. We paid off all of our preferred stock via several debt-for-equity transactions over the last 4 months. We also raised strategic capital to fund additional programs that were previously on hold due to lack of funding. Taken together, this represented $143 million of capital transactions. We executed decisively and I want to thank our Board of Directors, our new investors, and our advisors. This transformation is behind us now and we are already underway leveraging our newly enhanced flexibility. We are operating under a new reality whereby we can move faster and improve on multiple fronts at once. While we are on track for our best year ever in 2026, our momentum is continuing into 2027, as part of an achievable multi-year growth outlook. We have a full basket of opportunities to improve, and we are taking on the next set of big improvements during 2027 now that we have the financial capacity to do so. The last remaining balance sheet financial improvements are with regards to our ABL and Term Loan, which we will fix at the right time. While we are happy with our last four years of sustained results improvement, we are at the same time determined to continue elevating the business to a higher plane of performance. This will require us to continue shifting our portfolio. We are taking forward actions on targeted sales growth, exiting low profit auto programs, and continuously taking out costs. We are on track for our multi-year targets. We are pleased that we have secured many new customers and introduced multiple new products in 2026. Further, we have a refreshed investor roster with growth-minded investors aligned with our forward goals. We are already accelerating our pace of improvement with our newfound financial flexibility. Our 5 Pillar growth program is our touchstone. Now we are in a position to also explore logical, small bolt-on acquisitions to further enhance our goals and growth trajectory. We are pleased that many of our new sales programs require ‘Immediate Startup’. Overall, the new wins numbers are very good, but we have areas where we want a significantly higher level of wins and growth, especially Data Center, Medical, and Defense. We are disciplined about improving our margins at the same time, walking away from dilutive business, and exiting minimal margin, minimal ROI business. We believe we have more room to increase our gross margins, adjusted EBITDA margins, and ROIs. Given the results we have delivered in 2026 year to date and our strong forward outlook, we are raising our full-year 2026 guidance. We will be more specific about 2027 when we have completed our 2027 business planning process which is underway now. We are updating our thinking now that we have more financial firepower that has been enabled by our balance sheet transformation of 2026.

Given the strength of our results year to date and the continued momentum in our targeted growth markets, we are again raising our full-year 2026 guidance across our key metrics. As we look ahead to the final quarter of 2026 and into 2027, our outlook reflects continued profitable growth and keeps us well on track to maintain pace with our 2029 financial goals. Our new capital structure enables NN to enter 2027 with a stronger balance sheet and greater financial flexibility to invest in our growth.
