Wabash Announces Third Quarter 2025 Results

  • Quarterly revenue of $382 million - Softer than expected demand, particularly in our Truck Body business, led to revenue coming in below our guidance range. Parts & Services generated positive revenue growth sequentially and year-over-year.
  • GAAP operating income of $58 million or Non-GAAP adjusted operating loss of $24 million; Excludes impact of $81 million gain related to the settlement of the Missouri legal verdict.
  • Quarterly GAAP EPS of $0.97 or Non-GAAP adjusted EPS of $(0.51). Missing Expectations due to revenue miss and operational inefficiencies associated with lower than expected volumes.
  • Total backlog of $829 million ending Q3; Market environment continues to be challenging as economic concerns and uncertainty remain.
  • 2025 revenue outlook reduced to $1.5B, Non-GAAP adjusted EPS outlook reduced to $(2.00), excluding impact in connection with the settlement of the Missouri legal verdict.

LAFAYETTE, Ind., Oct. 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wabash (NYSE: WNC), a leader in end-to-end supply chain solutions for the transportation, logistics and infrastructure markets, today reported results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.

The Company's net sales for the third quarter of 2025 were $381.6 million, reflecting a (17.8)% decrease compared to the same quarter of the previous year. The Company generated consolidated gross profit of $16 million, equivalent to 4.1% of sales. GAAP operating income amounted to $58 million as the company recognized a $81 million gain as a result of a settlement agreement related to the legal verdict. Non-GAAP adjusted operating loss was $23.6 million for the quarter. Third quarter GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.97 or $(0.51) on a Non-GAAP adjusted basis.

As of September 30, 2025, total Company backlog stood at approximately $829 million, as customers continue to take a wait-and-see approach to capital spending.

For the full-year ending December 31, 2025, the Company reduced its revenue outlook to $1.5 billion and reduced its Non-GAAP adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $(1.95) to $(2.05).

“Our Truck Body business continued to face challenging market conditions through the third quarter, reflected in softness across medium-duty chassis production. Demand eased across most end markets as freight activity, construction, and industrial sectors slowed further,” explained Yeagy. “Based on early customer discussions and the latest forecasts, we remain cautiously optimistic that 2026 could mark the beginning of a gradual recovery, supported by pent-up replacement needs and improving freight conditions. As we close out the third quarter, we’ve stayed true to our values while making the prudent—but sometimes difficult—decisions needed to manage our cost base in this environment. Our balance sheet is working, and our liquidity provides the flexibility to navigate near-term headwinds while investing in long-term growth.”

Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the financial information included in this release contains non-GAAP financial measures including adjusted operating (loss) income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net (loss) income, adjusted diluted (loss) earnings per share, free cash flow, adjusted segment EBITDA, and adjusted segment EBITDA margin. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures and results calculated in accordance with GAAP, including net income (loss), and reconciliations to GAAP financial statements should be carefully evaluated.

Adjusted operating (loss) income, a non-GAAP financial measure, excludes certain costs, expenses, other charges, gains or income that are included in the determination of operating income under U.S. GAAP, but that management would not consider important in evaluating the quality of the Company’s operating results as they are not indicative of the Company’s core operating results or may obscure trends useful in evaluating the Company’s continuing activities. Accordingly, the Company presents adjusted operating (loss) income excluding these special items to help investors evaluate our operating performance and trends in our business consistent with how management evaluates such performance and trends. Further, the Company presents adjusted operating (loss) income to provide investors with a better understanding of the Company’s view of our results as compared to prior periods. A reconciliation of adjusted operating (loss) income to operating income (loss), the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in the tables following this release.

Adjusted EBITDA includes noncontrolling interest & excludes loss from unconsolidated entity and is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, the Missouri legal matter, impairment and other, net, and other non-operating income and expense. Management believes providing adjusted EBITDA is useful for investors to understand the Company’s performance and results of operations period to period with the exclusion of the items identified above. Management believes the presentation of adjusted EBITDA, when combined with the GAAP presentations of operating income (loss) and net income (loss), is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the Company’s operating performance. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in the tables following this release.

Adjusted net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders and adjusted diluted (loss) earnings per share reflect an adjustment for the Missouri legal matter and the related tax effect of that adjustment. Management believes providing adjusted measures and excluding certain items facilitates comparisons to the Company’s prior year periods and, when combined with the GAAP presentation of net income (loss) and diluted net income (loss) per share, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the Company’s performance. A reconciliation of adjusted net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders and adjusted diluted (loss) earnings per share to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders and diluted earnings (loss) per share, the most comparable GAAP financial measures, are included in the tables following this release.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities minus cash payments for capital expenditures minus expenditures for revenue generating assets. Management believes providing free cash flow is useful for investors to understand the Company’s performance and results of cash generation period to period with the exclusion of the item identified above. Management believes the presentation of free cash flow, when combined with the GAAP presentations of cash provided by operating activities, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the Company’s operating performance. A reconciliation of free cash flow to cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in the tables following this release.

Adjusted segment EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, includes noncontrolling interest & excludes loss from unconsolidated entity and is calculated by adding back segment depreciation and amortization expense to segment operating income, and excludes certain costs, expenses, other charges, gains or income that are included in the determination of operating income (loss) under GAAP, but that management would not consider important in evaluating the quality of the Company’s segment operating results as they are not indicative of each segment's core operating results or may obscure trends useful in evaluating the segment's continuing activities. Adjusted segment EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted segment EBITDA by segment total net sales. A reconciliation of adjusted segment EBITDA to (loss) income from operations, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in the tables following this release.

Information reconciling any forward-looking adjusted operating (loss) income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net (loss) income, adjusted diluted (loss) earnings per share, free cash flow, adjusted segment EBITDA and adjusted segment EBITDA margin to GAAP financial measures is unavailable to us without unreasonable effort. We cannot provide reconciliations of the above noted forward looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP financial measures because certain items required for such reconciliations are outside of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Preparation of such reconciliations would require a forward-looking balance sheet, statement of income and statement of cash flows, prepared in accordance with GAAP, and such forward-looking financial statements are unavailable to us without unreasonable effort.
