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. The Company’s ITAR-registered facilities are prepared to serve the specialized needs of customers with ITAR-controlled projects while its FFL license ensures responsible manufacturing in firearms-related categories. Together, these credentials enhance NN’s role as a trusted partner to aerospace companies, Tier-1 defense primes, and advanced technology customers.
Within its Aerospace and Defense segment, NN’s General Metal Finishing (GMF) division has supported high-reliability defense programs for more than 50 years. GMF provides manual rack, barrel, and vibratory plating, stainless steel electropolishing, and a broad range of precious and non-precious metal finishes that meet stringent military specifications. With NADCAP accreditation, ISO 13485:2016 and ISO 9001:2015 certifications, and more than 50,000 square feet of production space, GMF processes millions of parts annually for applications such as hybrid microelectronic packages, refractory metal heatsinks, and machined aluminum housings.
NN’s Polymet division adds advanced clad metal solutions to the portfolio, supplying aerospace and defense customers with overlay, inlay, and corelay materials, as well as precious metal wire and electrical contact tapes. These products are used in weaponry components, aerospace connectors, electronic heatsinks, and sighting systems, providing performance advantages that single-alloy components cannot achieve. Polymet’s ISO 9001:2015 quality systems and rigorous ASTM testing standards support reliable supply into mission-critical programs.
The Company’s Aerospace and Defense-capable facilities are strategically located across its U.S. manufacturing network, providing plating, machining, clad metals, and electronics production in secure environments. These capabilities allow NN to support programs ranging from guided munitions and avionics to optics, scopes, and specialty firearms assemblies.
NN expects its Aerospace and Defense-related revenue to increase as new opportunities emerge across government programs, prime contractors, and aerospace initiatives. The Company also plans to expand its Aerospace and Defense capabilities, products and certifications, and highlight them with a larger presence on its corporate website.

Second Quarter Developments. NN leveraged the soft market environment to upsize its business development activities and investments. The soft top-line centers around certain automotive customers, which NN was able to partially offset through the contribution of new business launches and precious metals pass-through pricing.
Changing for the Better. Management continues to work on its transformation plan to position the Company for significant upside when end markets improve. For example, YTD, the 18.2% adjusted gross margin is an expansion of 190 basis points over the past two years and well on the way to the 20% gm goal.

Improvement in Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, and New Business Program
Company Reiterates Full Year 2025 Guidance
CHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NN, Inc. (NASDAQ: NNBR) (“NN” or the “Company”), a global diversified industrial company that engineers and manufactures high-precision components and assemblies, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.
Second Quarter Highlights: (results from continuing operations compared with prior year, where comparisons are noted)
Net sales of $107.9 million, down 2.4% on a pro forma basis
Gross margin of 16.9%, and adjusted gross margin of 19.5%
Operating loss of $1.5 million and adjusted operating income of $4.9 million, an increase of $2.8 million
Adjusted EBITDA of $13.2 million, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.2%
New business wins were $32.7 million in the first half of 2025, and NN has over 100 programs launching in 2025 that are expected to add greater than $45 million in future sales at full run-rate
Harold Bevis, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “NN delivered a solid quarter for gross margins, operating income, adjusted operating income, and adjusted EBITDA. We are pleased with our reported results, new business acquisition, and new business launches. We leveraged the soft market environment to upsize our business development activities and investments. Our soft top-line centers around certain automotive customers. Conversely, we have been able to partially offset this weakness through the contribution of new business launches and precious metals pass-through pricing.”
“We have increased the size of our new business program in terms of prospecting, launching, and investing. We now have over 40 people in business development and launch, and we expect to launch over 100 new programs in 2025. We expect those launches will add over $45 million in future sales at run-rate. We plan to invest $18 to $20 million on capital projects in 2025. The twin goals of lowering our costs overall as a company while adding increased focus on growth is working and will be the main drivers of sustained top-line growth and increased profitability.”
Mr. Bevis continued, “Our current expectation is that some of our automotive markets may have similar soft patterns in the second half of 2025. In response, we have activated our own mitigation levers including tight cost controls and working capital actions. We are underway with tariff mitigation efforts with our customers and have positioned ourselves as a tariff problem solver.”
“We are using this opportunity to accelerate our transformation activities. We are actively investing in growth capex, and we have hired additional personnel to accelerate growth in our targeted areas. We recently announced the hiring of Tim Erro as NN’s new Chief Commercial Officer and have also added new account managers in our targeted areas of medical, stampings, and electrical products. We now have a core team of electrical harness experts and are evaluating an organic entry into this new market, just as we have done to enter the medical market.”
Mr. Bevis concluded, “Our transformation plan is working and we have increased our efforts during this slow auto market. Lastly, we have fully kicked off an M&A program and are seeking targets that are consistent with our strategy and can help refinance our preferred stock.”
Second Quarter Results
Net sales were $107.9 million, a decrease of 12.3% compared to the second quarter of 2024 net sales of $123.0 million, primarily due to the rationalization of underperforming business and plants in 2024, the sale of our Lubbock operations in 2024, and lower automotive volumes. These decreases were partially offset by the contribution of 70 new business launches in the first half of 2025 and higher precious metals pass-through pricing. Loss from operations for the second quarter of 2025 was $1.5 million, an improvement of 28.6% compared to the second quarter of 2024 loss from operations of $2.1 million.
Second Quarter Adjusted Results
Pro forma net sales when adjusted for rationalized sales, currency changes, and the sale of Lubbock, were a decrease of 2.4% in the second quarter when compared to the second quarter of 2024.
Adjusted income from operations for the second quarter of 2025 was $4.9 million compared to adjusted income from operations of $2.1 million for the same period in 2024. Adjusted EBITDA was $13.2 million, or 12.2% of sales, compared to $13.4 million, or 10.9% of sales, for the same period in 2024.
Adjusted net income was $0.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss of $0.7 million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, for the same period in 2024. Free cash flow was a use of cash of $3.2 million compared to a use of cash of $1.3 million for the same period in 2024.
Power Solutions
Net sales for the second quarter of 2025 were $44.6 million compared to $50.2 million in the same period in 2024. The decrease is primarily due to the sale of our Lubbock operations, partially offset by higher precious metals pass-through pricing. Income from operations was $5.8 million compared to income from operations of $5.3 million for the same period in 2024.
Adjusted income from operations was $8.4 million compared to $8.1 million in the second quarter of 2024. The increase in adjusted income from operations was primarily due to favorable product mix, and lower operating costs.
Mobile Solutions
Net sales for the second quarter of 2025 were $63.4 million compared to $72.9 million in the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in sales was primarily due to rationalized volume and lower automotive volume. Loss from operations was $1.1 million compared to loss from operations of $1.6 million for the same period in 2024.
Adjusted income from operations was $2.3 million compared to adjusted loss from operations of $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2024. The increase in adjusted income from operations was primarily due to improved margin mix of sales and lower operating costs.
2025 Outlook
NN is maintaining its full-year 2025 outlook.
Net sales to range between $430 to $460 million
Adjusted EBITDA to range between $53 to $63 million
Free cash flow to range between $14 to $16 million; guidance assumes receipt of CARES Act refund in 2025
New business wins to range between $60 to $70 million
Chris Bohnert, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, “Our second quarter results were largely in line with expectations. We are maintaining our current guidance and given the ongoing tariff-driven uncertainties and the anticipated downstream effects for our customers, we continue to direct expectations towards the lower end of our guided ranges. We note that the uncertainty of the current macroeconomic environment, particularly the potential for shifts in trade policy and interest rates could drive variability in our results, which may fall above or below our current forecasts. Irrespective of the near-term macroeconomic backdrop, we continue to pursue expense mitigation and operational efficiencies to partially offset potential impacts to end market demand. We are investing in commercial enhancements to accelerate future growth, and we remain optimistic about the strong pace of our transformation and growth opportunities.”

NN will discuss its results during its quarterly investor conference call on August 7, 2025, at 9 a.m. ET. The call and supplemental presentation may be accessed via NN’s website, www.nninc.com.

CHARLOTTE, N.C., July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NN, Inc. (NASDAQ: NNBR), a global diversified industrial company that engineers and manufactures high-precision components and assemblies, today announced Timothy Erro has joined as its new Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer. In this position, Mr. Erro will lead NN’s global commercial team and report directly to Harold Bevis, President and CEO.
NN has a successful new business program and as a function of this early success, the Company is announcing a commitment to expand this program with this announced leadership change. NN has shown strong initial results in the last two years.
Approximately $160 million of new business wins since launching the initiative in 2023, with success primarily in the Company’s traditional markets and emerging success in electrical and medical end markets.
NN’s new business pipeline remains robust at more than $700 million across all products and targeted growth areas.
NN is revising and increasing its overall new business objectives:
Increasing its targets and the pace for achieving new wins, specifically in electrical and medical markets;
Setting higher annual award goals; and
Strategically expanding product offerings and solutions.
Tim Erro has led a highly successful global team and program, and has overseen a significant amount of business growth and new wins, including:
Leading a global team effort that has averaged more than $50 million per year in new business wins of electrical products, more than three times the historical annual new business wins generated by NN’s Power Solutions division; and
Entering eight new markets, through which his teams have added many new customers in pursuit of electrical products and systems that fit his prior company’s operating assets and know-how.
Harold Bevis, President and Chief Executive Officer of NN commented, “Tim brings an outstanding track record with him and is currently leading one of the most successful new wins programs in the electrical industry globally. He is an expert at entering new markets and expanding market share in existing markets. He has a great blend of technical and commercial expertise, operations know-how, and executive leadership experience, all of which align with our commercial strategy and will help take NN’s growth program to the next level. He and I have worked together in the past, where he led a tremendously successful global program focused on electrical and electronic products at a much larger scale than our current program. His track record of developing and leading high-performing sales organizations will help us achieve our goals faster.”
Erro has more than 30 years of experience with electrical and electronic products across a wide variety of end markets and global geographies, including:
Mr. Bevis concluded, “From our past experience together, I can attest that Tim will increase our focus, pace, hit rates, and the accountability of our global commercial team along our chosen paths. He will strengthen our team and immediately bring in new talent. As part of our enhanced commercial efforts, we especially want to grow at a more accelerated pace in electrical products and medical products.”
Tim Erro commented, “I am excited to join NN’s leadership team and am eager to put my background and industry experience to work in strengthening NN’s commercial results and our global team. Our engineering and production capabilities are unique and highly valued in the market, and I look forward to working with the talented team at NN to set even higher goals and achieve them with consistency. This is going to be an exciting next phase for NN, and I plan to bring in additional experienced veterans to lead the way with our customers.”
Mr. Erro brings an extensive commercial and operations background with him. Prior to joining NN, he served as VP of Global Sales and New Business Development for Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc., and has had a focused set of sales and operations roles at Aptiv (formerly Delphi Automotive), Leoni Wiring Systems, General Motors, and United Technologies Automotive.

Transformation Plan on Track. The enterprise transformation is now roughly 70% complete. Notably, the diversification is away from the automotive industry. Of the $160 million (peak value) of new wins over the past seven quarters, one-quarter are non-auto, and about half of the pipeline is now in non-auto verticals.
New Business. NN shifted the business development focus to closing and winning immediate ramp up sales, given the softness in certain end markets. The Company now has 120 programs that are ramping up this year worth $55 million in annualized sales, an increase over the 50 programs reported at the end of 4Q24.

Commercial Traction Building. NN added $16.4 million of new business in the first quarter. The Company is well on pace to hit the lower end of its $60 to $70 million full-year target. NN continues to see positive traction in targeted markets, including medical, high-value automotive, and electrical components. Additionally, the Company’s commercial pipeline is strong at over $740 million.
Mixed Financial Start Amidst Transition. First quarter net sales came in at $105.7 million, compared to $121.2 million a year ago, with the decline primarily reflecting the Lubbock sale and rationalized business lines. On a pro forma basis, revenue was down just 1.3% year-over-year. Power Solutions declined to $43.5 million from $48.2 million in 2024 due to the sale of Lubbock. Mobile Solutions revenue fell to $62.2 million compared to $73.1 million during the same prior year period, due to the closing of the Juarez plant. Adjusted EBITDA was $10.6 million, slightly lower than last year’s $11.3 million and lower than our $11.6 million estimate. Adjusted EPS loss for the quarter improved year-over-year to $0.03 from a loss of $0.08.
