Commercial & Strategic Highlights

• Third consecutive year of achieving or beating target rate of new business wins, with approximately $70 million secured in 2025, exceeding guidance range, and bringing the three-year cumulative total to more than $200 million
  • New wins are accretive to consolidated margin profile
  • NN is achieving a >20% hit rate on new business opportunities
• NN has won more than 170 new sales program awards which have launched during 2025 or will launch in 2026

• Sales pipeline of more than $800 million across more than 800 programs, concentrated in targeted areas.
  • During 2025, NN significantly upsized the business development team for electrical products

“NN delivered a third consecutive year of improved financial performance in 2025, and we look ahead to 2026 with increased confidence in our trajectory for sales, margins, and adjusted EBITDA,” said Harold Bevis, Chief Executive Officer of NN, Inc. “In 2025 we drove adjusted EBITDA towards recent highs despite softness in automotive and commercial vehicle markets and record high precious metal prices. Importantly, we completed the most capital-intensive portion of our transformation plan that included plant closures, significant headcount realignment, and exiting dilutive business. As a result, NN enters 2026 as a healthier, leaner, and more focused company, performing on multiple fronts, while beginning our next chapter of net sales growth.”

Bevis continued, “We expect 2026 to be a meaningful inflection point, and we are guiding to a fourth consecutive year of improved adjusted EBITDA which we expect to range between $50 million to $60 million. Our forecasted sales growth is already underway in the first quarter of 2026, and we plan to launch approximately 100 new programs in 2026. These new programs carry accretive margins that will strengthen our EBITDA and cash flow profile as they ramp. Critically, the success of our new wins program, our planned launches, and more stable markets will return NN’s annual net sales growth. We expect real commercial momentum, and we are also increasing our goals for new business wins for the year to a range of $70 million to $80 million.”

Bevis concluded, “The progress we have made and the momentum we are carrying into 2026 and beyond gives us increasing confidence in NN’s forward net sales trajectory. Our business mix continues to shift toward higher-growth, higher-margin markets including data center power, electrical grid infrastructure, defense, and medical, and we recently secured our first direct data center win. We believe the combination of our operational transformation and accelerating sales growth positions NN to deliver meaningful and sustained value creation for shareholders both in 2026 and in the years ahead.”

Fourth Quarter Results

Net sales were $104.7 million, a decrease of 1.7% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 net sales of $106.5 million, which was primarily due to rationalization of underperforming business and plants and lower volumes partially offset by favorable foreign exchange impact of $2.1 million.

Loss from operations for the fourth quarter was $10.4 million compared to a loss from operations of $16.9 million for the same period of 2024. The year-over-year improvement was due to rationalization of underperforming business and plants, impairment of machinery and equipment recorded in 2024 at a plant that closed in 2025, and lower compensation expense due to decreased headcount.

Net loss for the fourth quarter was $12.5 million compared to net loss of $21.0 million for the same period in 2024. The year-over-year improvement was due to rationalization of underperforming business and plants, impairment of machinery and equipment recorded in 2024 at a plant that closed in 2025, and lower compensation expense due to decreased headcount.

Full-Year Results

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $422.2 million compared to $464.3 million for the same period of 2024, a decrease of $42.1 million, or 9.1%. This was primarily due to the rationalization of underperforming business and plants, the sale of our Lubbock operations, lower volumes, and unfavorable foreign exchange effects of $0.6 million. These decreases were partially offset by the contribution of new business launches and higher precious metals pass-through pricing. Power Solutions sales were up while Mobile Solutions sales were down primarily due to a decline in low-margin auto parts business.

Loss from operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $18.9 million compared to a loss from operations of $27.5 million for the same period of 2024. The year-over-year improvement was due to rationalization of underperforming business and plants, impairment of machinery and equipment recorded in 2024 at a plant that closed in 2025, decrease in depreciation due to the impact of historical purchase accounting step-up basis being fully depreciated in the second half of 2024, and lower compensation expense due to decreased headcount. The improvement is partially offset by lower volumes.

Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $34.0 million compared to net loss of $38.3 million for the same period of 2024. The year-over-year improvement was primarily due to our improvement in loss from operations. The improvement is partially offset by loss on extinguishment of debt in 2025.

Fourth Quarter Adjusted Results

Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $12.9 million, or 12.3% of sales, compared to $12.1 million, or 11.3% of sales, for the same period of 2024. Adjusted income from operations for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $3.3 million compared to adjusted income from operations of $2.4 million for the same period of 2024.

Adjusted net loss for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $0.1 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss of $0.9 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the same period of 2024.

Power Solutions

Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $45.5 million compared to $39.2 million in the same period in 2024, an increase of 16.1%. The increase was primarily due to steady volumes, higher precious metals pass-through pricing and favorable foreign exchange effects.

Loss from operations for the fourth quarter was $3.9 million compared to income from operations of $1.3 million for the same period of 2024.

Adjusted income from operations for the fourth quarter was $4.9 million compared to adjusted income from operations of $4.6 million for the same period of 2024. The increase in adjusted income from operations was primarily due to lower administrative costs.

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $178.6 million compared to $180.5 million for the same period of 2024, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 1.1%. This was primarily due to the sale of our Lubbock operations, lower volumes and unfavorable foreign exchange effects of $0.8 million. These decreases were partially offset by higher precious metals pass-through pricing.

Income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $10.3 million compared to income from operations of $13.1 million for the same period of 2024, a decrease of $2.8 million. This was primarily due to the sale of our Lubbock operations and lower volumes. The decrease is partially offset by lower administrative costs and lower depreciation and amortization expense due to sold or fully utilized assets.

Adjusted income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $26.9 million compared to adjusted income from operations of $24.7 million for the same period in 2024.

Mobile Solutions

Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $59.3 million compared to $67.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of 12.0%. The decrease was primarily driven by rationalization of underperforming business and plants and lower volumes and partially offset by favorable foreign exchange impact.

Loss from operations for the fourth quarter was $1.4 million compared to loss from operations of $12.9 million for the same period of 2024. The improvement was primarily driven by rationalization of underperforming business and plants, impairment of machinery and equipment recorded in 2024 at a plant that closed in 2025, and lower compensation expense due to decreased headcount.

Adjusted income from operations for the fourth quarter was $3.1 million compared to adjusted income from operations of $2.5 million for the same period of 2024. The increase in adjusted income from operations was primarily due to the rationalization of underperforming business and plants.

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $244.0 million compared to $283.9 million for the same period of 2024, a decrease of $39.9 million, or 14.1%. This was primarily due to rationalization of underperforming business and plants, lower volume in North America, and partially offset by favorable foreign exchange effects.

Loss from operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $8.0 million compared to loss from operations of $18.1 million for the same period of 2024. The improvement was primarily driven by rationalization of underperforming business and plants, impairment of machinery and equipment recorded in 2024 at a plant that closed in 2025, lower depreciation expense due to the impact of historical purchase accounting step-up becoming fully depreciated in the second half of 2024, and lower compensation expense due to decreased headcount.

Adjusted income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $7.3 million compared to adjusted income from operations of $1.5 million for the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily due to rationalization of underperforming business and plants and lower depreciation expense due to the impact of historical purchase accounting step-up becoming fully depreciated in the second half of 2024.

2026 Outlook

• Revenues are expected to range between $445 to $465 million with modest organic growth coupled with new business launches, values may vary based on metals cost
• Adjusted EBITDA expected to range between $50 and $60 million with modest operating leverage
• New business wins are expected to increase to $70 to $80 million
  

Chris Bohnert, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer commented, “For fiscal 2026, we are guiding net sales in the range of $445 million to $465 million and adjusted EBITDA in the range of $50 million to $60 million, reflecting a return to year-over-year net sales growth, and a notable expansion versus prior year. Importantly, this top-line growth will flow through a cost structure that has been fundamentally improved over the course of our transformation. The resulting operating performance is expected to drive adjusted EBITDA growth and margin expansion.”

Conference Call

NN will discuss its results during its quarterly investor conference call on March 5, 2026, at 9 a.m. ET. The call and supplemental presentation may be accessed via NN’s website, www.nninc.com. The conference call can also be accessed by dialing 1-877-255-4315 or 1-412-317-6579. For those who are unavailable to listen to the live broadcast, a replay will be available shortly after the call until March 6, 2027.

NN discloses in this press release the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted common share, and free cash flow. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures provides supplementary information about the impacts of restructuring and integration expense, acquisition and transition expenses, foreign exchange impacts on inter-company loans, amortization of intangibles and deferred financing costs, and other non-operating impacts on our business.

The financial tables found later in this press release include a reconciliation of adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted operating margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, free cash flow to the U.S. GAAP financial measures of income (loss) from operations, net income (loss), net income (loss) per diluted common share, and cash provided (used) by operating activities.

The Company is unable to include a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, without unreasonable effort due to the high variability with respect to the impact of items such as income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense and other items that are excluded from this non-GAAP measure.

Company Also Announces a New Weapons Customer for its North American Machining Operations

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NN, Inc. (NASDAQ: NNBR), a global diversified industrial company that engineers and manufactures high-precision components and assemblies, today provided an update on its Aerospace and Defense business, supported by registration with the U.S. Department of State’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and its recently obtained Federal Firearms License (FFL) issued by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Notably, the FFL allows NN to produce specific components for firearms manufacturing. NN’s ITAR registration and FFL license strengthen the Company’s ability to serve U.S. and allied defense customers with secure, high-quality manufacturing solutions.

“Our Aerospace and Defense business is a focus area and is scaling into a meaningful growth platform for NN,” said Harold Bevis, President and Chief Executive Officer of NN, Inc. “By pairing our existing ITAR registration and FFL license with our U.S.-based manufacturing capabilities, we believe we are uniquely positioned to deliver mission-critical components that meet the highest standards of security, precision, and quality. Looking ahead, we expect to strengthen and expand our foundation for growth while opening up new pathways to create value for our defense and commercial partners. Aerospace and defense customers seek suppliers like NN who can combine technical expertise with rigorous compliance, and NN is answering that call.”

In tandem with the announcement of its newly obtained licensing, NN is also announcing a new business win and commercial relationship for its North America machining operations. Rob Esch, NN’s CTO of Machining said, “Our experience with laser technologies and precision machining of exotic metal alloys has led to a breakthrough with a well-known manufacturer of specialty firearms. This has led directly to NN recently winning new business, and we are currently prototyping and launching many new parts for several new programs. This new area for NN has the potential to grow much larger for both parties. We are very excited to be building on our capabilities and supporting our partners this way.”

NN’s Aerospace and Defense operations deliver precision components, plating services and assemblies used in guidance systems, optics and scope housings, weapon components, laser systems, and electronic subsystems.
