Third quarter sales of $152 million, EPS of $(0.20), Adjusted EBITDA of $4.6 million
Returns to growth in Global Electrical Solutions segment
Updates full year 2025 guidance
NEW ALBANY, Ohio, Nov. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CVG (NASDAQ:CVGI), a diversified industrial products and services company, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2025.
Third Quarter 2025 Highlights (Results from Continuing Operations; compared with prior year, where comparisons are noted)
- Revenues of $152.5 million, down 11.2%, primarily due to softening in North American demand.
- Operating loss of $1.1 million, flat compared to operating loss of $1.1 million. Adjusted operating income of $1.6 million, compared to adjusted operating loss of $0.4 million. The increase in adjusted operating income was primarily attributable to improved gross margin performance and lower SG&A expenses.
- Net loss from continuing operations of $6.8 million, or $(0.20) per diluted share and adjusted net loss of $4.6 million, or $(0.14) per diluted share, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $0.9 million, or $(0.03) per diluted share and adjusted net loss of $0.4 million, or $(0.01) per diluted share.
- Adjusted EBITDA of $4.6 million, up 7.0%, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 3.0%, up from 2.5%.
James Ray, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "In the face of ongoing lower demand in our key Construction, Agriculture, and Class 8 truck end markets, we were pleased with the resilience seen in our third quarter results. We continued to benefit from our operational efficiency improvement and right sizing our manufacturing footprint and enterprise structural cost, evidenced by the continued sequential expansion in our adjusted gross margin in the quarter, despite the lower demand environment. Furthermore, as part of our efforts to preserve margins and position CVG for an eventual end market recovery, we remain focused on reducing SG&A expenses, and we have made demonstrable progress with customers as it relates to mitigating tariff impacts. I want to sincerely thank every member of the CVG team for their commitment, resilience, and focus on execution."
Mr. Ray continued, "We are encouraged by the continued improvement in Global Electrical Systems segment performance, which returned to year-over-year revenue growth in third quarter, driven by new business wins outside of the Construction and Agriculture end markets, which continue to see lower demand. This segment also saw continued margin expansion year-over-year. In addition, our Global Seating segment expanded margins, as we see the benefits of our operational efficiency improvements, even in a softer demand environment. Our North American-focused Trim Systems and Components segment continues to see weakness as Class 8 production declines year-over year. However, we are taking proactive actions to improve profitability in the face of lower production levels. As an organization, we remain laser-focused on the levers we can control to improve financial performance, drive operational efficiency, and while continuing to launch previously won new customer programs across all segments to best position CVG for the future."
Andy Cheung, Chief Financial Officer, added, "We are encouraged by our margin performance in the quarter, particularly against a difficult demand backdrop. We continue to optimize our operations to account for individual end market outlooks, particularly in the North American Class 8 truck market. While softer orders led to an inventory increase in the third quarter, we expect to reduce working capital in the fourth quarter. We remain focused on cash generation, with an expectation to drive at least $30 million in free cash flow for the full fiscal year. Continued free cash generation and debt paydown remain our near-term focus areas as we look to drive further cost reductions and improve overall operational efficiency."

Consolidated Results from Continuing Operations
Third Quarter 2025 Results
- Third quarter 2025 revenues were $152.5 million, compared to $171.8 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 11.2%. The overall decrease in revenues was due to lower sales as a result of a softening in customer demand, primarily in the Global Seating and Trim Systems & Components segments.
- Operating loss in the third quarter 2025 was flat compared to the prior year period at $1.1 million. Third quarter 2025 adjusted operating income was $1.6 million, compared to loss of $0.4 million in the prior year period. The increase in adjusted operating income was primarily attributable to improved gross margin performance and lower SG&A expenses.
- Interest associated with debt and other expenses was $4.1 million and $2.4 million for the third quarter 2025 and 2024, respectively, due to higher interest rates.
- Net loss from continuing operations was $6.8 million, or $(0.20) per diluted share, for the third quarter 2025 compared to net loss of $0.9 million, or $(0.03) per diluted share, in the prior year period. Third quarter 2025 adjusted net loss from continuing operations was $4.6 million, or $(0.14) per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss of $0.4 million, or $(0.01) per diluted share.
On September 30, 2025, the Company had $20.2 million of outstanding borrowings on its U.S. revolving credit facility and $4.2 million outstanding borrowings on its China credit facility, $31.3 million of cash and $96.5 million of availability from the credit facilities (subject to customary borrowing base and other conditions), resulting in total liquidity of $127.8 million.
Third Quarter 2025 Segment Results
Global Seating Segment
- Revenues were $68.7 million compared to $76.6 million for the prior year period, a decrease of 10.4%, due to lower sales volume as a result of decreased customer demand.
- Operating income was $1.4 million, compared to loss of $1.5 million in the prior year period, an increase of $2.9 million, driven by improved gross margin performance and lower SG&A expenses. Third quarter 2025 adjusted operating income was $2.9 million compared to loss of $0.8 million in the prior year period.
Global Electrical Systems Segment
- Revenues were $49.5 million compared to $46.7 million in the prior year period, an increase of 5.9%, primarily as a result of ramping new business wins.
- Operating income was $0.8 million compared to loss of $1.5 million in the prior year period, an increase of $2.3 million. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to higher sales volumes. Third quarter 2025 adjusted operating income was $1.4 million compared to loss of $0.2 million in the prior year period.
Trim Systems and Components Segment
- Revenues were $34.3 million compared to $48.4 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 29.2%, primarily due to lower sales volume.
- Operating loss was $0.9 million compared to an operating income of $5.4 million in the prior year period. The decrease in operating income was primarily attributable to lower demand and a gain on a facility sale in the prior period. Third quarter 2025 adjusted operating loss was $0.3 million compared to income of $4.1 million in the prior year period.
Outlook
CVG updated the Company's outlook for the full year 2025, based on current market conditions:
| Metric | Prior 2025 Outlook ($ millions) | 2025 Outlook ($ millions) |
| Net Sales | $650 - $670 | $640 - $650 |
| Adjusted EBITDA | $21 - $25 | $17 - $19 |
| Free Cash Flow | > $30 | > $30 |
This outlook reflects, among others, current industry forecasts for North America Class 8 truck builds. According to ACT Research, 2025 North American Class 8 truck production levels are expected to be at 239,000 units, down 28% versus the 2024 actual Class 8 truck builds of 332,372 units and down 5% from the time of our second quarter 2025 earnings release, when ACT Research was forecasting 252,000 units for 2025 North American Class 8 truck production.
Construction and Agriculture end markets are projected to decline approximately 5-15% in 2025. However, we expect the contribution from new business wins outside of Construction and Agriculture end markets in Electrical Systems to soften this decline.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
This earnings release contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). In general, the non-GAAP measures exclude items that (i) management believes reflect the Company's multi-year corporate activities; or (ii) relate to activities or actions that may have occurred over multiple or in prior periods without predictable trends. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate the Company's performance, engage in financial and operational planning and to determine incentive compensation.
Management provides these non-GAAP financial measures to investors as supplemental metrics to assist readers in assessing the effects of items and events on the Company's financial and operating results and in comparing the Company's performance to that of its competitors and to comparable reporting periods. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements set forth above should be carefully evaluated.
