Previous Earnings Reports
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| May 07 | Earnings timing notice | Neutral | +3.6% | Announcement of Q1 2026 results release date and accompanying conference call. |
| Apr 23 | FY 2025 results | Negative | -5.7% | Full‑year 2025 results with revenue decline, losses and going‑concern disclosure. |
| Apr 20 | Earnings timing notice | Neutral | -1.9% | Scheduling of Q4 2025 and FY 2025 results release and conference call. |

| Nov 10 | Q3 2025 results | Negative | -8.1% | Q3 2025 results showing lower revenue but higher margins and ongoing losses. |
Actual earnings releases (Q3 2025 and FY 2025) tended to see negative price reactions, while timing/notice releases around earnings were neutral‑to‑positive.
Over the past few quarters, Westport has evolved into a smaller, more focused business after divesting its Light‑Duty segment and leaning more on the Cespira joint venture. Earnings communications in 2025‑2026 have highlighted declining legacy revenues, persistent net losses, and repeated going‑concern language, alongside improving Cespira growth. Notices about upcoming earnings calls (Mar 12, 2026, Apr 20, 2026, May 7, 2026) drew modestly positive or mixed reactions, while detailed result releases on Nov 10, 2025 and Apr 23, 2026 coincided with share price declines.
Historical Comparison
Past earnings‑tagged news for WPRT saw an average move of -1.9%, with detailed result releases drawing selling while simple timing notices were steadier.
Earnings communications progressed from Q3 2025 updates through FY 2025 results into Q1 2026, consistently emphasizing Cespira’s growth alongside shrinking legacy revenue and recurring going‑concern language.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement details Q1 2026 results showing revenue declining to $2.3M, a net loss from continuing operations of $5.7M, and Adjusted EBITDA of - $4.9M, offset by strong Cespira revenue of $22.249M and lower long‑term debt of $1.9M. Management again notes substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern and is exploring financing options. Investors may focus on liquidity trends, Cespira’s growth trajectory, and execution of cost controls in upcoming quarters.

First Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights
- Revenues for the first quarter of 2026 decreased to
$2.3 million compared to$7.3 million in the same quarter last year. As planned, our Heavy-Duty OEM segment ended its transitional service agreement with Cespira at the end of Q2 2025 resulting in reduction in revenue when comparing period over period. - For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Cespira, our joint venture with Volvo Group, increased its revenue by
$5.6 million or33% compared to the prior year quarter. Cespira reduced its net loss by$4.6 million and reliance on funding from its partners in the quarter. Westport reduced its capital contributions to Cespira in the quarter from$4.7 million to$2.9 million . - For the three months ended March 31, 2026, our High-Pressure Controls segment increased its revenue by
$0.4 million or21% compared to the prior year quarter. - Net loss from continuing operations of
$5.7 million for the quarter compared to a net loss from continuing operations of$5.3 million for the same quarter last year. - Adjusted EBITDA1 of negative
$4.9 million compared to nil for the same period in 2025. The increase in negative adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by a decrease in gross profit, partially offset by lower operating expenditures and loss from investments accounted for by the equity method. Included in the prior year quarter's adjusted EBITDA was our discontinued operations' performance, which had a net profit of$2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. - Cash and cash equivalents were
$24.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Cash used in operating activities was$3.3 million , primarily driven by operating losses in the quarter and changes in working capital. Cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations primarily consisted of proceeds received from holdback receivables, partially offset by capital contributions in Cespira of$2.9 million Cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was debt repayments of$1.0 million in the quarter. - Long term debt, including the current portion, was
$1.9 million as at March 31, 2026, compared to$2.9 million at December 31, 2025.

Liquidity and Going Concern
As at March 31, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of
Based on our projected capital expenditures, debt servicing obligations and operating requirements under our current business plan, we are projecting that our cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our operations through the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of this MD&A. These conditions raise substantial doubt about Westport's ability continue as a going concern within one year after the date of this MD&A is issued.
Management is currently evaluating several different options to improve Westport's liquidity position, including raising funds from the public markets and borrowing debt or other financing alternatives. These plans are not final and are subject to market and other conditions not within our control. As such, there can be no assurances that Westport will be successful in obtaining sufficient funding. Accordingly, we concluded under the accounting standards that these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt about Westport's ability to continue as a going concern.

GAAP and NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). These U.S. GAAP financial statements include non-cash charges and other charges and benefits that may be unusual or infrequent in nature or that we believe may make comparisons to our prior or future performance difficult. In addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Westport and certain investors use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as an indicator of our ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow to fund working capital needs, service debt obligations and fund capital expenditures. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures in its review and evaluation of the financial performance of Westport. EBITDA is also frequently used by investors and analysts for valuation purposes whereby EBITDA is multiplied by a factor or "EBITDA multiple" that is based on an observed or inferred relationship between EBITDA and market values to determine the approximate total enterprise value of a company. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures also provide additional insight to investors and securities analysts as supplemental information to our U.S. GAAP results and as a basis to compare our financial performance period-over-period and to compare our financial performance with that of other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons of our core operating results from period to period and to other companies by, in the case of EBITDA, removing the effects of our capital structure (net interest income on cash deposits, interest expense on outstanding debt and debt facilities), asset base (depreciation and amortization) and tax consequences. Adjusted EBITDA provides this same indicator of Westport's EBITDA from continuing operations and removing such effects of our capital structure, asset base and tax consequences, but additionally excludes any unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses, stock-based compensation charges and other one-time impairments and costs which are not expected to be repeated in order to provide greater insight into the cash flow being produced from our operating business, without the influence of extraneous events.
Segment Information
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are intended to provide additional information to investors and analysts and do not have any standardized definition under U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA exclude the impact of cash costs of financing activities and taxes, and the effects of changes in operating working capital balances, and therefore are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under U.S. GAAP. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently.
Segment earnings or losses before income taxes, interest, depreciation, and amortization ("Segment EBITDA") is the measure of segment profitability used by the Company. The accounting policies of our reportable segments are the same as those applied in our consolidated financial statements. Management prepared the financial results of the Company's reportable segments on basis that is consistent with the manner in which Management internally disaggregates financial information to assist in making internal operating decisions. Certain common costs and expenses, primarily corporate functions, among segments differently than we would for stand-alone financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These include certain costs and expenses of shared services, such as IT, human resources, legal, finance and supply chain management. Segment EBITDA is not defined under U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered a substitute for net earnings or other results reported in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of reportable segment information to consolidated statement of operations can be found in section "Non-GAAP Measure & Reconciliations" within this this press release.
