Growing data center market opportunities provide counterweight to below average power outage environment

WAUKESHA, Wisc., Oct. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Generac Holdings Inc. (NYSE: GNRC) (“Generac” or the “Company”), a leading global designer and manufacturer of energy technology solutions and other power products, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2025 and provided an update on its outlook for the full-year 2025.

Third Quarter 2025 Highlights

• Net sales decreased 5% to $1.11 billion during the third quarter of 2025 as compared to $1.17 billion in the prior-year third quarter. Core sales, which excludes both the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency, decreased approximately 6%.
  • Residential product sales decreased approximately 13% to $627 million as compared to $723 million last year.
  • Commercial & Industrial (“C&I”) product sales increased approximately 9% to $358 million as compared to $328 million in the prior year.
• Net income attributable to the Company during the third quarter was $66 million, or $1.12 per share, as compared to $114 million, or $1.89 per share, for the same period of 2024.
• Adjusted net income attributable to the Company, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $108 million, or $1.83 per share, as compared to $136 million, or $2.25 per share, in the third quarter of 2024.
• Adjusted EBITDA before deducting for noncontrolling interests, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $193 million, or 17.3% of net sales, as compared to $232 million, or 19.8% of net sales, in the prior year.
• Cash flow from operations was $118 million as compared to $212 million in the prior year. Free cash flow, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $96 million as compared to $184 million in the third quarter of 2024.
• The Company is updating its overall net sales guidance for the full-year 2025 to be approximately flat as compared to the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA margin, before deducting for non-controlling interests, is now expected to be approximately 17.0%.
  
  

“Home standby and portable generator shipments grew sequentially in the quarter but were below expectations as a result of a power outage environment that was significantly below baseline average and the lowest third quarter of total outage hours since 2015,” said Aaron Jagdfeld, President and Chief Executive Officer. “This softer seasonal demand was partially offset by robust growth in our shipments of residential energy technology products and a strong increase in global C&I product sales. The third quarter also included initial shipments of our new large-megawatt generators to the data center market, and we continue to rapidly develop a pipeline of opportunities with our backlog for these products doubling over the last 90 days.”

Jagdfeld continued, “The mega-trends that support our future growth potential remain intact as lower power quality and higher power prices will be an ongoing challenge given the more frequent and severe weather patterns and broader electrification trends. Importantly, the massive increase in data center power demand is expected to further stress the already fragile power grid by amplifying the growing electricity supply/demand imbalance. As a leading energy technology company, we believe Generac is uniquely positioned at the center of these numerous mega-trends that have the potential to drive substantial and sustainable growth in the years ahead.”

Additional Third Quarter 2025 Consolidated Highlights

Gross profit margin was 38.3% as compared to 40.2% in the prior-year third quarter. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to unfavorable sales mix together with the impact of higher tariffs and lower manufacturing absorption, partially offset by increased price realization.

Operating expenses increased $20.2 million, or 6.7%, as compared to the third quarter of 2024 as a result of certain legal and regulatory charges in the current year, as disclosed in the accompanying reconciliation schedules.

Provision for income taxes for the current year quarter was $11.8 million, or an effective tax rate of 15.0%, as compared to $33.5 million, or a 22.7% effective tax rate, for the prior year. The decrease in effective tax rate was primarily driven by certain favorable discrete tax items in the current-year quarter that did not occur in the prior year.

Cash flow from operations was $118.4 million during the third quarter, as compared to $212.3 million in the prior year. Free cash flow, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $96.5 million as compared to $183.7 million in the third quarter of 2024. The change in free cash flow was primarily driven by an increase in inventory levels during the current year quarter and lower operating income.

Business Segment Results

Domestic Segment

Domestic segment total sales (including inter-segment sales) decreased approximately 8% to $938.1 million as compared to $1.02 billion in the prior year, including an approximate 1% benefit from acquisitions. The core total sales decrease was primarily driven by weaker home standby and portable generator sales as a result of the significantly lower power outage environment in the current year quarter together with a strong prior year comparison which included multiple major landed hurricanes. This was partially offset by robust growth in residential energy technology shipments and an increase in C&I product sales to the telecom and industrial distributor channels.

Adjusted EBITDA for the segment was $165.8 million, or 17.7% of domestic segment total sales, as compared to $211.6 million, or 20.7% of total sales, in the prior year. This decline was primarily driven by unfavorable sales mix together with the impact of incremental tariffs and operating deleverage on lower sales volumes, partially offset by increased price realization.

International Segment

International segment total sales (including inter-segment sales) increased approximately 11% to $185.5 million from $166.7 million in the prior year quarter, including an approximate 3% favorable impact from foreign currency. The core total sales growth for the segment was primarily driven by strength in C&I product shipments to European markets as well as initial shipments of large-megawatt generators to data center customers.

Adjusted EBITDA for the segment, before deducting for noncontrolling interests, was $27.4 million, or 14.8% of international segment total sales, as compared to $20.3 million, or 12.2% of total sales, in the prior year. This margin increase was primarily driven by favorable sales mix.

2025 Outlook

As a result of the significantly weaker power outage environment in recent months impacting seasonal demand for home standby and portable generators, the Company is lowering its full-year net sales growth guidance to be approximately flat as compared to the prior year. This compares to the previous guidance range of an increase between 2 to 5%.

Additionally, net income margin, before deducting for non-controlling interests, is now projected to be approximately 6.0% for the full-year 2025 compared to the previous guidance range of 7.5 to 8.5%. The corresponding adjusted EBITDA margin is now expected to be approximately 17.0% compared to the previous guidance range of 18.0 to 19.0%.

Free cash flow conversion from adjusted net income is now expected to be approximately 80% as compared to the previous guidance range of 90 to 100%.

Non-GAAP Financial Metrics

Core Sales

The Company references core sales to further supplement Generac's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Core sales excludes the impact of acquisitions and fluctuations in foreign currency translation. Management believes that core sales facilitates easier and more meaningful comparison of net sales performance with prior and future periods.

Adjusted EBITDA

To supplement Generac’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company provides the computation of Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the Company, which is defined as net income before noncontrolling interests adjusted for the following items: interest expense, depreciation expense, amortization of intangible assets, income tax expense, certain non-cash gains and losses including certain purchase accounting adjustments and contingent consideration adjustments, share-based compensation expense, certain transaction costs and credit facility fees, business optimization expenses, provision for certain legal and regulatory charges, certain specific provisions, mark-to-market gains and losses on a minority investment, and Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests. The provision for legal and regulatory charges adjusts for matters that are not part of the ordinary routine litigation or regulatory matters incidental to the Company’s business, including but not limited to class action lawsuits, government inquiries, and certain intellectual property litigation. The adjustments to net income in computing Adjusted EBITDA are set forth in the reconciliation table below. The computation of Adjusted EBITDA is based primarily on the definition included in our Credit Agreement.

Adjusted Net Income

To further supplement Generac's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company provides a summary to show the computation of adjusted net income attributable to the Company. Adjusted net income attributable to the Company is defined as net income before noncontrolling interests adjusted for the following items: amortization of intangible assets, amortization of deferred financing costs and original issue discount related to the Company's debt, intangible impairment charges, certain transaction costs and other purchase accounting adjustments, business optimization expenses, provision for certain legal and regulatory charges, certain specific provisions, mark-to-market gains and losses on a minority investment, other non-cash gains and losses, and adjusted net income attributable to non-controlling interests.

Free Cash Flow

In addition, the Company references free cash flow to further supplement Generac's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, plus proceeds from beneficial interests in securitization transactions, less expenditures for property and equipment, and is intended to be a measure of operational cash flow taking into account additional capital expenditure investment into the business.

The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  Please see the accompanying Reconciliation Schedules and our SEC filings for additional discussion of the basis for Generac's reporting of Non-GAAP financial measures, which includes why the Company believes these measures provide useful information to investors and the additional purposes for which management uses the non-GAAP financial information.
