Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation (NYSE: AP) Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Results

• 4 Q and FY 2025 GAAP net loss of $57.7 million ($2.85 per share) and $66.1 million ($3.28 per share)
• 4Q and FY 2025 losses include non-cash after-tax expenses of $54.3 million and $63.3 million, primarily for costs related to exiting U.K. cast roll businesses and an undiscounted asbestos-related revaluation charge.
• Q4 2025 Adjusted EBITDA of $3.2 million versus $6.0 million prior year
• Full Year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA of $29.2M up 4% versus prior year
• Successfully exited UK cast roll facility in Q4 2025, which is expected to result in an annual positive EBITDA improvement of $7 million to $8 million.

Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation (NYSE:AP) reported net sales of $108.8 million and $434.2 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $100.9 million and $418.3 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024. Both segments increased, aided by higher shipment volumes in the Air and Liquid Processing segment and despite the Forged and Cast Engineered Product segment's shutdown of the UK cast facility and the steel distribution business in Q4 2025.

The Corporation reported a net loss attributable to Ampco of $57.7 million, or $2.85 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2025, which included $42.4 million, or $2.09 per share, net deconsolidation charge and other costs to exit the UK cast roll business and $11.9 million after tax, or $0.59 per share, for a non cash asbestos revaluation charge. The Corporation's full year net loss attributable to Ampco was $66.1 million, or $3.28 per share, which included $52.2 million, or $2.60 per share, net deconsolidation charge and other costs to exit the UK cast roll business and a non-core steel distribution facility, as well as the non-cash asbestos revaluation charge of $11.9 million after tax, or $0.59 per share.

Adjusted EBITDA of $3.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was below prior year while Adjusted EBITDA of $29.2M for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 was above the prior year. The adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was lower than prior year primarily driven by lower overhead absorption which was the result of a curtailment of production days due to lower demand caused by the tariff impact on the steel market, lower volume of rolls versus FEP products, and the ramp up of the Sweden facility. The lower absorption was partially offset by lower SG&A expenses. The higher adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 was due to increased revenue, and lower SG&A spending partially offset by lower overhead absorption. The chart below bridges adjusted EBITDA for both Q4 and the full year.

Commenting on the performance, Ampco-Pittsburgh's CEO, Brett McBrayer, said, "While Q4 has significant one time non cash charges due to right sizing our operating footprint, we have accomplished the significant steps needed to fundamentally change the earnings power of our portfolio. We are currently shifting about 50% of the volume from the now former UK facility into our Sweden operating plant. As we emerge from the slowdown in the steel market, we expect closing the U.K. facility will have a positive annual EBITDA impact of $7 to $8 million. Meanwhile, our Air and Liquid Processing business continues to show growth potential as full year revenue increased for the fourth consecutive year and adjusted operating income was at a new record high in 2025. Ampco's adjusted EBITDA has risen by 54% over the last three years."

Interest expense of $2.8 million and $11.4 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, is comparable to interest expense for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024.

Other income – net for the three months and year-ended December 31, 2025, declined when compared to the three months and year-ended December 31, 2024, due to lower pension income and lower gains on foreign exchange during the quarter and lower pension income and higher foreign currency transaction losses for the year-ended. The lower pension income was due to a change in the target allocation of plan assets in the U.S. defined benefit pension plan resulting in a lower expected return on plan assets as the plan approached fully funded status as of December 31, 2025.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The Corporation presents non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh, non-GAAP adjusted net loss per share attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) from operations. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh and non-GAAP adjusted net loss per share attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh exclude significant charges or credits that are one-time charges or credits, unrelated to the Corporation's ongoing results of operations, or beyond its control. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net (loss) income excluding interest expense, other income - net, income tax (benefit) provision, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation along with significant charges or credits that are one-time charges or credits, unrelated to the Corporation's ongoing results of operations, or beyond its control. Non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) from operations is calculated as (loss) income from operations excluding depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation along with significant charges or credits that are one-time charges or credits, unrelated to the segment's ongoing results of operations, or beyond its control. During the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, the non-GAAP financial measures were adjusted to exclude the deconsolidation of our U.K. cast roll legal entity as well as severance and other exit costs (including accelerated depreciation) associated with our exit from U.K. cast roll operations and a charge to revalue our asbestos liability. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2025, the non-GAAP financial measures were adjusted to exclude severance and other exit costs (including accelerated depreciation) associated with our exit from U.K. cast roll operations and a non-core steel distribution facility as well as the benefit resulting from employee-retention credits received. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Beginning in 2025, the Corporation began presenting non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA along with non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) from operations. These measures are key measures used by the Corporation's management and Board of Directors to understand and evaluate the operating performance of the Corporation and its segments. While these non-GAAP measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies, the Corporation's management and Board of Directors believe these non-GAAP measures enhance comparability to companies in its stated industry peer group. Additionally, a portion of the incentive and compensation arrangements for certain employees is based on the Corporation's business performance.

The Corporation believes these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business that otherwise could be masked by the effect of the items it excludes from adjusted EBITDA and adjusted income (loss) from operations. The Corporation also believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management, shareholders and investors, and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allowing for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used by the Corporation's management in its financial and operational decision-making. In particular, the Corporation believes the exclusion of the deconsolidation charge, severance and other exit costs, asbestos charge (credit) and the employee-retention credits can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of the Corporation's core business performance.

Non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh, non-GAAP adjusted net loss per share attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) from operations are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations related to the use of non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh, rather than net loss attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh, non-GAAP adjusted net loss per share attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh, rather than net loss (income) per share attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, rather than net (loss) income, or non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) from operations, rather than (loss) income from operations, which are the nearest GAAP equivalents. Among other things, there can be no assurance that additional expenses similar to the deconsolidation charge, severance and other exit costs (including accelerated depreciation) and asbestos-related revaluation charge or additional benefits similar to the employee-retention credits will not occur in future periods.
