Posted on August 5, 2026August 5, 2026 by [email protected]

August 5, 2026

Follows Sales of Two Detention Facilities in California

BRENTWOOD, Tenn., Aug. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CoreCivic, Inc. (NYSE: CXW) (CoreCivic or the Company) announced today that it has completed the sales of its 1,600-bed Prairie Correctional Facility in Appleton, Minnesota and its 1,033-bed Midwest Regional Reception Center in Leavenworth, Kansas to the United States of America and its assigns, by and through the Department of Homeland Security for an aggregate gross sales price of $734.0 million, including $495.6 million for the Prairie Correctional Facility and $238.4 million for the Midwest Regional Reception Center. These purpose-built facilities were specifically designed to care for individuals in a secure environment. After federal and state income taxes of approximately $182.2 million and transaction costs, the Company anticipates its net proceeds from these asset sales to be approximately $522.5 million. The Company currently expects to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include debt reduction and the repurchase of the Company’s common stock.

The Company currently expects to continue to operate the Prairie Correctional Facility and Midwest Regional Reception Center under the existing management contracts with Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE), although the terms of the management contracts may be modified to reflect the change in ownership. However, the Company can provide no assurance that it will continue to manage these facilities in the future, or that the terms of the existing management agreements will remain the same. As has always been the case, ICE has the ability to terminate the management contracts for non-appropriation of funds or for convenience. The management contracts for the Prairie Correctional Facility and Midwest Regional Reception Center expire in August 2031 and September 2027, respectively. Following the sale of these facilities, the Company will own or control via a long-term lease 61 correctional, detention, and reentry facilities with a total design capacity of approximately 67,000 beds and manage an additional eight facilities it does not own with a total design capacity of 13,000 beds.

Patrick Swindle, CoreCivic’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are further demonstrating the value of the Company’s underlying real estate portfolio through the sales of our Prairie Correctional Facility and Midwest Regional Reception Center, following our sales of two detention centers in California last month. We remain committed to growing the Company’s businesses and returning value to our shareholders, while remaining a dependable and flexible partner for government.”

In addition to the recently completed facility sales, the Company has recently begun discussions with ICE about the potential acquisition of additional detention facilities from the Company. These discussions are in preliminary stages, and the Company can provide no assurance that any additional sales will occur.

BRENTWOOD, Tenn., Aug. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CoreCivic, Inc. (NYSE: CXW) (“CoreCivic”) announced today that it has been awarded a new contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”) to utilize the Company’s 1,600-bed Prairie Correctional Facility located in Appleton, Minnesota, a facility that has been idle since 2010.

The new contract commences on August 11, 2026, for a term of five years. The agreement provides for a fixed monthly payment plus an incremental per diem payment based on detainee populations. Taking into account start-up activities and the phased commencement of intake operations, we currently expect an immaterial impact to earnings for the remainder of 2026. Once the facility is fully activated, we expect this facility to generate total annual revenue of approximately $75 million. We expect to begin receiving detainees in the fourth quarter of 2026, with the full ramp estimated to be complete in the second quarter of 2027.

Patrick D. Swindle, CoreCivic’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to announce the new contract at our Prairie Correctional Facility. While this facility has been idle since 2010, we have made investments to help ensure an efficient reactivation in the event of a new contract. The geographic location of this facility, similar to our other recent contract awards, improves our ability to support our government partner throughout the United States.”

Second quarter revenues of $195 million, EPS of $(0.25), Adjusted EBITDA of $5.4 million
Strong revenue growth across all three business segments
Raises full-year 2026 guidance

NEW ALBANY, Ohio, Aug. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CVG (NASDAQ: CVGI), a diversified industrial products and services company, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Second Quarter 2026 Highlights (Results from Continuing Operations; compared with prior year, where comparisons are noted)

Revenues of $195.2 million, up 13.5%, primarily driven by increased demand across all three segments.
Gross margin expansion of 140 basis points versus Q2 2025 and 120 basis points sequentially versus Q1 2026 primarily from increased revenues and operational efficiency improvements.
Operating income of $1.6 million, up $0.8 million, compared to $0.8 million. Adjusted operating income of $2.6 million, compared to $1.9 million.
Net loss from continuing operations of $8.7 million, or $(0.25) per diluted share and adjusted net loss of $4.6 million, or $(0.13) per diluted share, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $4.1 million, or $(0.12) per diluted share and adjusted net loss of $2.9 million, or $(0.09) per diluted share. Net loss includes a $3.4 million pre-tax warrant liability revaluation expense.
Adjusted EBITDA of $5.4 million, compared to $5.2 million, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 2.8%, down from 3.0%.
Net proceeds of approximately $11.6 million from the at-the-market equity issuance program used to pay down term loan.

James Ray, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are encouraged by the strong revenue growth and gross margin expansion we delivered in the second quarter. All three segments generated year-over-year revenue growth, driven by the continued ramp of new business and increased customer demand. North American Class 8 truck production began to improve late in the quarter. We continued to deliver sequential gross margin expansion, reflecting the improvements from our operational efficiency and footprint rationalization initiatives and position CVG to benefit from increased demand.”

Mr. Ray continued, “Our Trim Systems & Components segment returned to year-over-year growth despite a lower Class 8 build rate compared with the prior-year quarter, driven in part by new business ramping in our wiper systems business. Global Seating continued to benefit from customer demand growth in international markets. Global Electrical Systems benefited from the ramp of new business, including the Zoox robotaxi program and a more diversified end market mix driving consistent growth. As we look to the second half of 2026, we remain focused on disciplined execution, continued margin improvement, and free cash generation. We expect CVG to be positioned to capitalize on improving market conditions.”

Angie O’Leary, Interim Chief Financial Officer, added, “During the second quarter, we continued to strengthen our balance sheet and execute our capital allocation priorities. Building on the progress from earlier this year, we further reduced outstanding debt with proceeds from our recently executed at-the-market equity offering program, which we expect to contribute to lower cash interest expense going forward. We also continue to make targeted investments in working capital to support key program launches and the growth opportunities across our businesses. SG&A expense increased from the prior year driven by higher incentive compensation and advisory service fees. We remain focused on driving profitable growth, generating free cash flow, and advancing toward our long-term net leverage objective of approximately two times. Based on our first-half revenue performance, and the momentum we see across all three segments, we are raising our revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance ranges for the year.”

Second Quarter Financial Results from Continuing Operations
(amounts in millions except per share data and percentages)

Consolidated Results from Continuing Operations

Second Quarter 2026 Results

Second quarter 2026 revenues were $195.2 million, compared to $172.0 million in the prior year period, an increase of 13.5%. The overall increase in revenues was primarily due to increased customer demand in international markets and the ramp of previously awarded new business wins across all three of our segments.
Operating income in the second quarter 2026 was $1.6 million, up $0.8 million compared to the prior year period. Second quarter 2026 adjusted operating income was $2.6 million, compared to adjusted operating income of $1.9 million in the prior year period. The increase in adjusted operating income was primarily attributable to higher sales and improved gross margin performance, partially offset by higher SG&A expense that was driven by higher incentive compensation and advisory service fees.
Interest associated with debt and other expenses was $2.9 million and $2.3 million for the second quarter 2026 and 2025, respectively, with the increase for the second quarter 2026 due to higher interest rates.
Net loss from continuing operations was $8.7 million, or $(0.25) per diluted share, for the second quarter 2026 compared to net loss of $4.1 million, or $(0.12) per diluted share, in the prior year period. Net loss includes a $3.4 million pre-tax warrant liability revaluation expense. Second quarter 2026 adjusted net loss from continuing operations was $4.6 million, or $(0.13) per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss of $2.9 million, or $(0.09) per diluted share.

On June 30, 2026, the Company had $24.8 million of outstanding borrowings on its U.S. revolving credit facility and $2.9 million outstanding borrowings on its China credit facility, $36.0 million of cash and $91.2 million of availability from the credit facilities (subject to customary borrowing base and other conditions), resulting in total liquidity of $127.2 million.

Second Quarter 2026 Segment Results

Global Seating Segment

Revenues were $80.0 million compared to $74.5 million for the prior year period, an increase of 7.5%, due primarily to increased customer demand in international markets.
Operating income was $3.0 million, compared to $2.7 million in the prior year period, an increase of $0.3 million, driven by higher sales and improved gross margin performance. Second quarter 2026 adjusted operating income was $4.0 million compared to $3.1 million in the prior year period.

Global Electrical Systems Segment

Revenues were $62.0 million compared to $53.6 million in the prior year period, an increase of 15.8%, primarily as a result of ramping new business wins.
Operating income was $1.7 million compared to operating income of $0.7 million in the prior year period. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to higher revenues.

Trim Systems and Components Segment

Revenues were $53.2 million compared to $43.9 million in the prior year period, an increase of 21.1%, primarily due to higher sales volume as a result of increased customer demand in North America, including improved product mix.
Operating income was $2.2 million compared to operating income of $0.1 million in the prior year period. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to higher demand and improved operational efficiencies.

Outlook

CVG updated the Company’s outlook for the full year 2026, based on current market conditions:

Metric	Prior 2026 Outlook ($ millions)	Updated 2026 Outlook ($ millions)
Revenues	$660 – $700	$725 – $755
Adjusted EBITDA	$24 – $30	$26 – $31
Free Cash Flow	Positive	Positive

This outlook reflects, among others, current industry forecasts for North America Class 8 truck builds. According to ACT Research, 2026 North American Class 8 truck production levels are expected to be at 274,111 units, up 9% versus the 2025 actual Class 8 truck builds of 251,251 units.

The outlook for the Construction end market reflects mid-single digit growth in 2026.

Research News and Market Data on RAIL

08/03/2026

Exceptional Order Intake and Increasing Market Share Drive Sequential Backlog Growth of 121%

Aftermarket Revenue Growth of 13% Year over Year; Second Aftermarket Acquisition Completed Following Quarter End

Operating Cash Flow of $12.1 Million and Free Cash Flow of $11.3 Million, Up 43% Year over Year

CHICAGO, Aug. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FreightCar America, Inc. (NASDAQ: RAIL) (“FreightCar America” or the “Company”), a diversified manufacturer and supplier of railroad freight cars, railcar parts and components, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Second Quarter 2026 Highlights

Revenues of $113.1 million, compared to $118.6 million in the second quarter of 2025, with railcar deliveries of 927 units compared to 939 units in the prior year period
Aftermarket revenues grew 13% year over year, reflecting continued organic growth in parts and components and the contribution from our recent acquisition
Gross margin of 5.5% with gross profit of $6.2 million, inclusive of $2.2 million of workforce realignment costs, compared to gross margin of 15.0% with gross profit of $17.8 million in the second quarter of 2025
Recorded a $24.9 million non-cash loss related to share price appreciation accounting on the warrant liability, resulting in a net loss of $30.1 million, or $(0.94) per diluted share, and adjusted net loss of $0.8 million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $3.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, in the prior year period
Holder exercised outstanding warrants during the quarter, reducing the warrant liability to $14.0 million at June 30, 2026 from $119.4 million at March 31, 2026 and resulting in positive stockholders’ equity of $36.2 million
Adjusted EBITDA of $1.2 million, representing a margin of 1.0%, compared to $9.3 million and a margin of 7.8% in the second quarter of 2025
Ended the quarter with a backlog of 3,972 units valued at $344 million, reflecting a diversified mix of new railcar builds, conversions and retrofits

“Our second-quarter results reflect two different realities,” said Nick Randall, President and Chief Executive Officer of FreightCar America. “Commercially, we delivered one of the strongest order quarters in our recent history, with backlog value increasing 121% sequentially and our share of industry new-railcar orders reaching approximately 45%. Operationally, the production ramp began later than planned due to customer delivery timing, reducing fixed-cost absorption and shifting a portion of expected 2026 deliveries into early 2027.”

Randall continued, “We realigned our Castaños operating footprint to the productivity improvements achieved over the past two years, while preserving the installed capacity and critical capabilities required to scale. As a result, we expect to generate approximately $12 million of annualized structural savings, with benefits beginning in the third quarter. Combined with 13% growth in aftermarket revenue and the addition of our second acquisition following quarter-end, we enter the second half with a substantially larger backlog, a lower cost base and a broader presence across the railcar lifecycle.”

Fiscal Year 2026 Outlook

The Company has updated its outlook for fiscal year 2026 as follows:

	Updated Fiscal 2026 Outlook	Year-over-Year Change at Midpoint of Range
Railcar Deliveries	3,500 – 3,900 railcars	(10.3)%
Revenue	$410 – $460 million	(13.2)%
Adjusted EBITDA1	$36 – $44 million	(2.9)%

1. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA guidance due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying adjustments necessary to calculate such non-GAAP measure without unreasonable effort. Material changes to such adjustments, including warrant liability and non-core operating items, could affect future GAAP results.

Mike Riordan, Chief Financial Officer of FreightCar America, added, “Free cash flow rose 43% year over year to $11.3 million, while we maintained solid balance sheet flexibility. We also closed our second aftermarket acquisition in under a year, an immediately accretive addition to our business as we continue to execute on our capital allocation priorities. While our updated full-year outlook reflects the shift in new railcar delivery timing, our lower cost structure and robust order intake support stronger results in the back half. Our long-term growth trajectory and value we are building for the years ahead remain firmly on track.”

Second Quarter 2026 Conference Call & Webcast Information

The Company will host a conference call and live webcast on Tuesday, August 4, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) to discuss its second quarter 2026 financial results.

Joe Gomes, CFA, Managing Director, Equity Research Analyst, Generalist , Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Overview. Titan’s second quarter results reflect solid improvement from the prior year. The Company continues to benefit from its diverse business model, even in the face of ongoing challenging Agriculture end markets. This quarter, it was the Consumer segment that drove performance. Titan’s one-stop-shop product and distribution strategy is a key element of the diverse business model, in our view.

2Q26 Results. Driven by a 27.2% increase in Consumer segment revenue, Titan’s consolidated revenue grew 5.2% to $484 million in the second quarter. This was towards the high end of management’s guidance. We were at $480 million. Adjusted EBITDA of $34 million was up 13.3% y-o-y and exceeded the high end of management’s guidance. We were at $29 million. Titan reported quarterly net income of $6.3 million, or $0.09/sh, partly driven by tariff refund recoveries.

Record Quarterly Sales in Both Segments Drives EPS, Cash Flow and Value Creation Raising Fiscal Year 2027 Guidance

FORT WORTH, Texas, July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — AZZ Inc. (NYSE: AZZ), the leading independent provider of hot-dip galvanizing and coil coating solutions, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended May 31, 2026.

Fiscal Year 2027 First Quarter Overview (as compared to prior fiscal year first quarter⁽¹⁾):

Total Sales of $448.5 million, up 6.3%
- Metal Coatings sales of $210.3 million, up 12.3%
- Precoat Metals sales of $238.2 million, up 1.5%
Net Income of $52.0 million, down 69.6%; prior year results were meaningfully impacted by equity in earnings from our minority interest in the AVAIL JV related to the sale of the Electrical Products Group to nVent Electric plc; Adjusted net income of $55.8 million, up 3.6%
GAAP diluted EPS of $1.72 per share, down 69.6% due to equity in earnings from the AVAIL JV as mentioned above; Adjusted diluted EPS of $1.85, up 3.9%
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $99.5 million, or 22.2% of sales, versus prior year of $106.4 million, or 25.2% of sales; prior year Q1 included $7.7 million equity in earnings⁽²⁾ from AVAIL JV operations
Segment Adjusted EBITDA margin of 30.3% for Metal Coatings and 21.7% for Precoat Metals
Cash flow from operations of $37.1 million
Cash dividend of $0.20 per share to common shareholders paid during the quarter, recently announced 20% increase in dividend to $0.24 per share

⁽²⁾ Excludes $165.8 million of the $173.5 million of equity in earnings from the AVAIL JV that is included in prior year Q1 GAAP net income.

Tom Ferguson, President, and Chief Executive Officer of AZZ, commented, “We are off to a great start in the fiscal year as sales grew to $448.5 million, up 6.3% over the prior year quarter. Our sales momentum and disciplined operational execution resulted in Adjusted EBITDA of $99.5 million, or 22.2% of sales, which generated adjusted diluted EPS of $1.85, up 3.9%. Metal Coatings achieved strong, double-digit sales gains on higher volume of galvanized steel. Meanwhile, Precoat Metals reached record first-quarter sales, fueled by a combination of price increases to offset materials and input cost inflation and the ongoing production ramp-up at the Washington, Missouri facility. We are on track to set new sales and profitability records in fiscal year 2027 due to external market visibility as we continue to execute our strategic plans; therefore, we have increased our annual guidance range.”

“We ended the quarter with a strong balance sheet and low net debt leverage of 1.4x, providing meaningful financial flexibility as we progress through the year. In the first quarter, we generated $37.1 million in cash from operations and will remain focused on disciplined management of working capital, capital expenditures, and debt throughout the fiscal year. Driven by a proven strategy and disciplined approach to M&A, we are actively pursuing an expanding pipeline of high-quality acquisition targets that will contribute to long-term shareholder value. Finally, I want to thank our AZZ employees as I am proud to work with such a talented group that incorporates pride and passion in everything they do,” Ferguson concluded.

Segment Performance
First Quarter 2027 Metal Coatings
Sales of $210.3 million increased by 12.3% over the first quarter of last year, primarily due to increased volume supported by project spending in several end markets, including construction, industrial, and infrastructure. Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $63.8 million resulted in Adjusted EBITDA margin of 30.3%, a decrease of 260 basis points from the prior year first quarter due to the sale of land in the prior year quarter and share growth in large projects this year.

First Quarter 2027 Precoat Metals
Sales of $238.2 million increased by 1.5% compared to the first quarter of last year, primarily due to increased sales from the Washington, Missouri facility and the pass-through of higher paint and input costs, partially offset by lower volume due to decreases in construction, infrastructure, HVAC and appliance end markets. Segment EBITDA of $51.8 million resulted in EBITDA margin of 21.7%, an increase of 100 basis points from the prior year first quarter, primarily due to higher sales.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Capital Allocation
The Company generated operating cash of $37.1 million for the first three months of fiscal year 2027 through improved earnings, coupled with a continued focus on working capital management. At the end of the first quarter, the Company’s net leverage was 1.4x trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA. During the first three months of fiscal year 2027, the Company made no debt repayments and returned cash to common shareholders through cash dividend payments totaling $6.0 million. Capital expenditures for the first three months of fiscal year 2027 were $18.7 million, and full fiscal year capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $80 – $100 million.

Financial Outlook — Raising Fiscal Year 2027 Guidance
We are raising our fiscal year guidance for the year ending February 28, 2027, which reflects our confidence in the Company’s strategic execution, operational resilience, and market positioning. Fiscal year 2027 guidance reflects our best estimates given expected market conditions for the full year, an annualized effective tax rate of 25% and excludes M&A activity and any federal regulatory changes that may emerge.
