Pattern Detected

Recent history shows some divergence where positive operational or acquisition news has coincided with short-term share price weakness, while select acquisition updates have aligned with modest gains.

Recent Company History

Over the past six months, LOAR has combined strong organic growth with acquisitions. Q3 2025 results on Nov 12, 2025 delivered record sales and margins but were followed by a -2.61% move. Completion of the LMB Fans & Motors deal on Dec 26, 2025 and the Harper Engineering acquisition on Jan 22, 2026 expanded the portfolio, with mixed near-term price reactions. The current Q4/FY25 record results and revised 2026 outlook build directly on this acquisition-driven growth and prior guidance framework.

Analysis

This announcement highlights record Q4 and full-year 2025 results, with net sales of $496.3M and Adjusted EBITDA of $189.1M, plus a higher 2026 outlook for net sales and Adjusted EBITDA after the LMB and Harper acquisitions. At the same time, management guides to roughly $80M of interest expense and a net income margin near 9%, reflecting increased debt. Investors may monitor execution on integration, margin sustainability, and whether growth offsets the heavier interest burden.

Key Terms

ebitda, adjusted ebitda, adjusted ebitda margin, adjusted earnings per share, +4 more
8 terms
ebitda financial
"References to "EBITDA" mean earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization"
EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.
adjusted ebitda financial
"references to "Adjusted EBITDA" mean EBITDA plus, as applicable for each relevant period"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
adjusted ebitda margin financial
"references to "Adjusted EBITDA Margin" refer to Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales"
Adjusted EBITDA margin shows how much profit a company makes from its core operations, expressed as a percentage of its total revenue, after removing certain one-time or unusual expenses and income. It helps investors understand the company's true earning ability from regular business activities, making it easier to compare performance over time or with other companies. Think of it as measuring the efficiency of a business in turning sales into profits, excluding irregular adjustments.
adjusted earnings per share financial
"References to "Adjusted Earnings Per Share" mean net income plus certain adjustments"
Adjusted Earnings Per Share shows how much profit a company makes for each share of stock, but it removes unusual or one-time items like big expenses or gains. This helps investors see the company's true ongoing performance, making it easier to compare how well different companies are doing over time.
non-gaap financial measures financial
"the use of non-GAAP financial measures as analytical tools has limitations"
Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.
diluted earnings per share financial
"Diluted earnings per share of $0.13, up 225.0% compared to the prior year's quarter"
Diluted earnings per share is a measure of a company's profit allocated to each share of stock, taking into account all possible shares that could be created through stock options, convertible bonds, or other securities. It shows the lowest possible earnings per share if all these potential shares were issued, helping investors understand the worst-case scenario for their ownership. This figure matters because it provides a more conservative view of a company's profitability per share.
net income margin financial
"Net income margin for the quarter improved to 9.5% compared to the prior year's quarter"
Net income margin measures the portion of a company’s sales that remains as profit after paying all costs, interest, and taxes, expressed as a percentage of revenue. It matters to investors because it shows how much profit a business keeps from each dollar of sales—like the slice of a pie left after all the bills are paid—helping compare profitability across companies and track whether management is improving efficiency or facing pressure on margins.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This press release includes express or implied forward-looking statements"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.

AI-generated analysis. Not financial advice.

WHITE PLAINS, NY / ACCESS Newswire / February 26, 2026 / Loar Holdings Inc. (NYSE:LOAR) (the "Company," "Loar," "we," "us" and "our"), reports record results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2025 and upward revisions to the full year 2026 outlook.

"As we close the year, I am pleased to report that Loar once again delivered record results across key financial metrics, including Net Sales, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin," said Dirkson Charles, Loar CEO and Executive Co‑Chairman of the Board of Directors. "Driven by favorable end‑market dynamics and disciplined execution across the organization, our team delivered strong operating performance while advancing our long‑term value creation strategy. These results underscore the scalability and resilience of our business model and reinforce Loar's position as a leading aerospace and defense component supplier. We also successfully completed the acquisitions of LMB Fans & Motors and Harper Engineering, further strengthening our portfolio and expanding our growth platform as we enter the next phase of the company's evolution."

Fourth Quarter 2025

  • Net sales of $131.8 million, up 19.3% compared to the prior year's quarter.

  • Net income of $12.5 million, up 239.5% compared to the prior year's quarter.

  • Diluted earnings per share of $0.13, up 225.0% compared to the prior year's quarter.

  • Adjusted EBITDA of $49.8 million, up 23.9% compared to the prior year's quarter.

  • Net income margin for the quarter improved to 9.5% compared to the prior year's quarter of 3.3%.

  • Adjusted EBITDA Margin for the quarter improved to 37.8% compared to 36.4% for the prior year's quarter.

  • Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $0.26, up 136.4% compared to the prior year's quarter.

Loar reported net sales for the quarter of $131.8 million, an increase of $21.3 million or 19.3% over the prior year's quarter. Organically(1), net sales increased 16.9% or $18.7 million, to $129.1 million.

Net income for the quarter increased $8.8 million to $12.5 million from $3.7 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. The increase in net income for the quarter was primarily driven by the contribution from higher sales and improved gross margins and lower interest expense, partially offset by higher income tax expense.

Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $49.8 million, an increase of 23.9% or $9.6 million compared to the prior year's quarter. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales was 37.8%, compared to 36.4% in the fourth quarter of the prior year. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales was due to the continued execution of our strategic value drivers, accretive impact of increased sales of higher margin products, and the leveraging impact of higher sales on operating costs.

During the fourth quarter we borrowed $445 million under our existing credit agreement to fund the acquisition of LMB Fans & Motors.

Full Year 2025

  • Net sales of $496.3 million, up 23.2% over the prior year.

  • Net income of $72.1 million, up 224.5% over the prior year.

  • Diluted earnings per share of $0.75, up 212.5% over the prior year.

  • Adjusted EBITDA of $189.1 million, up 29.2% over the prior year.

  • Net income margin improved to 14.5% compared to 5.5% in the prior year.

  • Adjusted EBITDA Margin improved to 38.1% compared to 36.3% in the prior year.

  • Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $1.04, up 147.6% over the prior year.

Net sales for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, were $496.3 million, an increase of $93.5 million or 23.2% over the prior year. Organically(1), net sales increased 12.7% or $51.4 million, to $454.2 million.

Net income for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased $49.9 million to $72.1 million from a net income of $22.2 million for the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months of 2025 was $189.1 million, an increase of 29.2% or $42.8 million over the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales was 38.1% for 2025, compared to 36.3% for the prior year.

Please see the attached Table 4 for a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin for the periods discussed in this press release.

(1)

Net organic sales represent net sales from our existing businesses for comparable periods and exclude net sales from acquisitions. We include net sales from new acquisitions in net organic sales from the 13th month after the acquisition on a comparative basis with the prior year period.

Full Year 2026 Outlook - Revised

"We revised our outlook for net sales, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin upward to include the impact of the LMB Fans & Motors and Harper Engineering acquisitions as well as the underlying strength of our business. We remain highly positive on end-market demand and our team's ability to execute on our strategic value drivers, delivering returns our stakeholders have come to expect," stated Mr. Charles.

"In conjunction with the acquisitions of LMB Fans & Motors and Harper Engineering, we borrowed an incremental $685 million of debt under our existing credit agreement," noted Glenn D'Alessandro, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. "This additional debt carries approximately $55 million of incremental interest expense." Mr. D'Alessandro then added that he expects "both acquisitions to be accretive to Loar's earnings within the year following the acquisition."

  • Net sales - between $640 million and $650 million, up from between $540 million and $550 million.

  • Net income - between $59 million and $63 million, down from between $80 million and $85 million.

  • Adjusted EBITDA - between $253 million and $258 million, up from between $209 million and $214 million.

  • Adjusted EBITDA Margin - approximately 40%, up from approximately 39%.

  • Diluted Earnings per share - between $0.60 and $0.65, down from between $0.82 and $0.88.

  • Net income margin - approximately 9%, down from approximately 15%.

  • Adjusted Earnings Per Share - between $0.76 and $0.80, down from between $0.98 and $1.03.

  • Interest expense - approximately $80 million, up from approximately $25 million.

  • Effective tax rate - approximately 25%.

  • Market Assumptions - Full year outlook is based on the following assumptions:

    • Commercial, Business Jet, and General Aviation OEM growth of low-double digits.

    • Commercial, Business Jet, and General Aviation aftermarket growth of low-double digits.

    • Defense growth of mid-single digits.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP financial measures provided in the "Full Year 2026 Outlook - Revised" section on a forward-looking basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP because to do so would be potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting event-driven transactional and other non-core operating items in any future period. The magnitude of these items, however, may be significant.

Loar has established relationships across leading aerospace and defense original equipment manufacturers and Tier Ones worldwide.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Information

We present in this press release certain financial information based on our EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share. References to "EBITDA" mean earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, references to "Adjusted EBITDA" mean EBITDA plus, as applicable for each relevant period, certain adjustments as set forth in the reconciliations of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, and references to "Adjusted EBITDA Margin" refer to Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. References to "Adjusted Earnings Per Share" mean net income plus certain adjustments as set forth in the reconciliations below to derive Adjusted EBITDA from EBITDA, less the tax effect of these adjustments. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are not measurements of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. We present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Earnings Per Share because we believe they are useful indicators for evaluating operating performance. In addition, our management uses Adjusted EBITDA to review and assess the performance of the management team in connection with employee incentive programs and to prepare its annual budget and financial projections. Moreover, our management uses Adjusted EBITDA of target companies to evaluate acquisitions.

Although we use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Earnings Per Share as measures to assess the performance of our business and for the other purposes set forth above, the use of non-GAAP financial measures as analytical tools has limitations, and you should not consider any of them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

  • EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest payments on our indebtedness.

  • Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and the cash requirements for such replacements are not reflected in EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin.

  • EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Earnings Per Share exclude the cash expense we have incurred to integrate acquired businesses into our operations, which is a necessary element of certain of our acquisitions.

  • The omission of the substantial amortization expense associated with our intangible assets further limits the usefulness of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin.

  • EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin do not include the payment of taxes, which is a necessary element of our operations.

Because of these limitations, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Earnings Per Share should not be considered as measures of cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. Management compensates for these limitations by not viewing EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Earnings Per Share in isolation and specifically by using other U.S. GAAP measures, such as net sales and operating profit, to measure our operating performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are not measurements of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and they should not be considered as alternatives to net income or cash flow from operations determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Earnings Per Share may not be comparable to the calculations of similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Future Looking Statements

This press release includes express or implied forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts, including those that reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, our operations and financial performance. The words "anticipate," "assume," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "future," "will," "seek," "foreseeable," the negative version of these words or similar terms and phrases may identify forward-looking statements in this press release, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

The forward-looking statements contained in this press release, including, but not limited to, the statements under the heading "Full Year 2026 Outlook - Revised" are based on management's current expectations and are not guarantees of future performance. Our expectations and beliefs are expressed in management's good faith, and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them, however, the forward-looking statements are subject to various known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, or changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict or quantify. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to changes in global, regional, or local economic, business, competitive, market, regulatory, and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We believe that these factors include but are not limited to the following: the almost exclusive focus of our business on the aerospace and defense industry; our heavy reliance on certain customers for a significant portion of our sales; the fact that we have in the past consummated acquisitions and our intention to continue to pursue acquisitions, and that our business may be adversely affected if we cannot consummate acquisitions on satisfactory terms, or if we cannot effectively integrate acquired operations; and the other risks and uncertainties described in Part I, Item 1A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 31, 2025, as well as the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K that will be filed following this earnings release, and other periodic reports filed by the Company from time to time with the SEC.

These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this press release. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this press release speaks only as of the date of this press release and is expressly qualified in its entirety by the cautionary statements included in this press release. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, investments, or other strategic transactions we may make. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by any applicable law.

To determine the applicable effective tax rate, transaction expenses, stock-based compensation, and acquisition and facility integration costs are excluded from adjusted net income and therefore we have excluded the impact those items have on the effective tax rate.
