"We delivered a strong start to 2026, achieving double-digit earnings growth and margin expansion versus last year," said Lucian Boldea, president and chief executive officer. "We are raising our full-year outlook to reflect this performance as well as improving customer demand across several end-market sectors.

"The Timken team is taking actions designed to accelerate profitable growth and create significant value for shareholders. The recent announcements of the acquisition of Bijur Delimon and the planned sale of the belts business demonstrates our 80/20 approach to the portfolio and commitment to margin expansion. The momentum is building as we execute on our strategic priorities, and we are excited to share more details at our upcoming Investor Day on May 20 in New York City."

First-Quarter 2026 Highlights

Timken delivered sales in the first quarter of $1.23 billion, up 8 percent from the same period a year ago. The increase was driven primarily by higher pricing, favorable foreign currency translation and higher volumes in the Industrial Motion segment. Organically, sales were up 4.3 percent as compared to the first quarter of 2025.

The company posted net income in the first quarter of $98.2 million or $1.40 per diluted share. This compares to net income of $78.3 million or $1.11 per diluted share for the same period a year ago. The company's net income margin in the quarter was 8.0 percent, compared to 6.9 percent in the first quarter of last year.

Excluding special items (detailed in the attached tables), adjusted net income in the first quarter was $117.3 million or $1.67 per diluted share. This compares to adjusted net income of $98.6 million or $1.40 per diluted share for the same period in 2025. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) in the quarter were $231.0 million or 18.8 percent of sales, compared with $208.1 million or 18.2 percent of sales in the first quarter of last year.

Net cash provided by operations in the quarter was $39.3 million, and free cash flow was $0.5 million. During the quarter, Timken returned $53.3 million of cash to shareholders through the payment of its 415^th consecutive quarterly dividend and the repurchase of 282 thousand shares of company stock. Timken also acquired Bijur Delimon, a leading manufacturer of automated lubrication systems, which expands the company's presence in key market verticals like rail, power generation and mining. The company ended the quarter with a strong balance sheet; net debt to adjusted EBITDA was 2.1 times as of March 31, 2026.

First-Quarter 2026 Segment Results

Engineered Bearings sales of $806.2 million increased 6 percent from the same period a year ago driven primarily by higher pricing and favorable foreign currency translation as volumes were flat compared to last year.

Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $159.0 million or 19.7 percent of sales, compared with $159.2 million or 20.9 percent of sales in the first quarter of last year. Adjusted EBITDA in the current quarter benefited from positive price/mix, lower material & logistics costs and the favorable impact of currency, offset by incremental tariff costs and higher operating costs.

Industrial Motion sales of $425.1 million increased 12 percent compared with the same period a year ago driven primarily by higher demand across most sectors, higher pricing and favorable foreign currency translation.

Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $91.3 million or 21.5 percent of sales, compared with $67.1 million or 17.7 percent of sales in the first quarter of last year. The increase in adjusted EBITDA was driven primarily by the impact of higher volume and positive price/mix, partially offset by incremental tariff costs.

2026 Outlook

Timken is increasing its 2026 outlook, with full-year earnings per diluted share now forecasted to be in the range of $4.70 to $5.20 and adjusted earnings per diluted share in the range of $5.75 to $6.25. The company is planning for 2026 revenue to be up approximately 5 percent in total at the midpoint from 2025, an increase from its prior outlook of 3 percent growth at the midpoint.

Reconciliation of Total Debt to Net Debt, the Ratio of Net Debt to Capital, and the Ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA:
(Unaudited)
These reconciliations are provided as additional relevant information about the Company's financial position deemed useful to investors. Capital, used for the ratio of net debt to capital, is a non-GAAP measure defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents plus total shareholders' equity. Management believes Net Debt, the Ratio of Net Debt to Capital, Adjusted EBITDA (see next page), and the Ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA are important measures of the Company's financial position, due to the amount of cash and cash equivalents on hand. The Company presents net debt to adjusted EBITDA because it believes it is more representative of the Company's financial position as it is reflective of the ability to cover its net debt obligations with results from its core operations.
