Focused on Business Wins and Costs. NN is continuing to achieve business wins with $15 million in new business wins in the quarter, totaling $49 million year-to-date, near the bottom of its $55-70 million range for the year. The Company’s transformation program is moving faster than anticipated, as evidenced by the new business growth, along with operational efficiency and structural cost reductions. An example of the latter being the previous sale of the plastics plant in July and closure of the Dowagiac plant to move operations to China, further lowering costs.

3Q Results. Third quarter results were slightly below expectations with net sales of $113.6 million, below last year’s $124.4 million and our estimate of $125 million, due to the sale of the Lubbock operations. Excluding the sale, rationalized volume at plants undergoing turnarounds, and a customer settlement, sales were down 0.5%. Adjusted EBITDA was $11.6 million, down from $14.5 million last year and our $13.9 million estimate. With decisions such as the plant closure and higher margins of new business, we expect improved performance in the short term.
