Insights

Revenue grew modestly with strong Air & Liquid demand, but profit metrics softened.

Ampco-Pittsburgh generated $108.3 million in Q1 2026 net sales, up 3.9% year over year, yet posted a net loss attributable to Ampco of $0.9 million versus prior-year net income of $1.1 million. Adjusted EBITDA declined to $8.0 million and margin to 7.4%, reflecting steel-market headwinds and mix effects.

Performance diverged by segment. Forged and Cast Engineered Products saw net sales dip 2% to $70.8 million and adjusted operating income fall to $5.7 million, influenced by timing, mix, and higher-cost inventory from late 2025. Air and Liquid Processing net sales climbed 17.3% to $37.5 million, delivering record adjusted operating income of $5.7 million on favorable product mix and operational improvements.

Backlog increased sequentially by $16.6 million to $345.5 million, with quarterly bookings of about $124 million supporting near-term revenue visibility. Operating cash flow improved to $1.7 million, while Free Cash Flow was still negative at $(1.7) million and net debt stood at $124.9 million as of March 31, 2026. Subsequent filings may provide more detail on how improving demand and mix translate into earnings over the rest of 2026.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA of $8.0 million with Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 7.4%"
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.
backlog financial
"Backlog at March 31, 2026, increased $16.6 million sequentially to $345.5 million"
A backlog is the amount of work or orders that a company has received but hasn't completed yet. It’s like a restaurant with many dishes to serve; the backlog shows how many orders are still waiting to be finished. It matters because a large backlog can indicate strong demand or potential delays in delivering products or services.
Free Cash Flow financial
"Capital expenditures were $3.4 million, resulting in Free Cash Flow of $(1.7) million"
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
non-GAAP financial
"The Corporation presents non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted income from operations"
Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.
Change in estimated recovery, UES UK financial
"Change in estimated recovery, UES UK 875"
Adjusted margin from operations financial
"Adjusted margin from operations 8.06 % 15.24 % 7.37 %"
Net sales $108.3 million +3.9% year over year
Net (loss) income attributable to Ampco ($0.9 million), $0.04 loss per share from $1.1 million income, $0.06 per share in Q1 2025
Adjusted EBITDA $8.0 million from $8.8 million in Q1 2025
Backlog $345.5 million up $16.6 million sequentially
Guidance

The company indicated improving demand, a more favorable mix, and expected improved conversion over the balance of 2026, supported by strong Air and Liquid Processing orders and recovering steel-related activity.

Net sales increased 3.9% to $108.3 million compared to first quarter 2025
o
Forged and Cast Engineered Products Net sales decreased 2% to $70.8 million
o
Air and Liquid Processing Net sales increased 17% to $37.5 million
Net loss attributable to Ampco of $0.9 million; $0.04 per share

Q1 customer orders of $124 million, led by strong Air & Liquid demand with steel trends stabilizing
U.S. Defined Benefit Pension Plan achieved fully funded status as of February 9, 2026

Carnegie, PA, May 12, 2026 —Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation (the “Company” or “Ampco”) (NYSE: AP) announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2026 (“First Quarter 2026”).

“We delivered sequentially improving firstquarter results, reflecting continued execution against our strategic priorities and strong demand and performance in our Air and Liquid Processing segment,” said Brett McBrayer, CEO of AmpcoPittsburgh. “In Forged and Cast Engineered Products, results reflect ongoing progress following the 2025 steel industry slowdown, with trends stabilizing as the business aligns with historical volumes and mix. We are also realizing the benefits from the actions taken to optimize our operating footprint, including the closure of the U.K. plant and the ramp up of our Sweden facility, with most of those benefits expected to be realized over the balance of 2026.

Our Air and Liquid Processing segment delivered record Adjusted operating income in the quarter, driven by record customer orders and favorable demand across naval defense and power generation markets.

Demand conditions are improving, and our team continues to drive performance through disciplined execution and operational improvement. We remain focused on advancing our growth initiatives, strengthening our operating profile, and allocating capital to the highestreturn opportunities as we position AmpcoPittsburgh for sustainable longterm value creation.”

 


 

First Quarter 2026 Results

Net sales for the First Quarter 2026 increased 3.9% to $108.3 million, compared to $104.3 million for the prioryear period. The increase was driven by strong growth in the Air and Liquid Processing segment compared to prior periods, reflecting higher shipment volumes across all product lines, which more than offset the modest yearoveryear decline in Forged and Cast Engineered Products related to capacity realignment and product mix.

Net loss attributable to AmpcoPittsburgh was $0.9 million, or $0.04 per share, compared to net income of $1.1 million, or $0.06 per share, in the prioryear period, reflecting Forged and Cast Engineered Products timing and mix headwinds, the absence of prioryear tax benefits, and a write down of the receivable related to the 2025 U.K. facility closure, partially offset by strong performance in our Air and Liquid Processing segment.

Adjusted EBITDA for the First Quarter 2026 was $8.0 million, compared to $8.8 million in the prioryear period, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 7.4%, a decline of 100 basis points year over year. The yearoveryear decline primarily reflects the steel market slowdown experienced in 2025. Sequentially, Adjusted EBITDA increased meaningfully compared to the Fourth Quarter 2025, reflecting an improved mix driven by stronger results in the Air and Liquid Processing segment and improving operating conditions in the Forged and Cast Engineered Products segment as timing and mix effects began to moderate.

Backlog

Backlog at March 31, 2026, increased $16.6 million sequentially to $345.5 million, reflecting solid order activity and modestly improving demand conditions across several end markets. First Quarter 2026 bookings of approximately $124 million support improved near-term revenue visibility. Growth was driven by a record level of orders in the Air and Liquid Processing segment, with continued demand across power generation and defense markets. In Forged and Cast Engineered Products, order trends improved sequentially, reflecting strengthening customer activity from the lower levels experienced in 2025, with current order activity and underlying steel market indicators supporting backlog levels. Overall, backlog trends point to improving demand and continued shift toward higher-value opportunities, positioning the Company to anticipate improved conversion and growth as the year progresses.

First Quarter 2026 Segment Results

Forged and Cast Engineered Products

Net Sales for the Forged and Cast Engineered Products segment were $70.8 million, a decrease of 2% compared to the prior-year period, primarily reflecting the closure of the U.K. plant that was included in 2025 results. Net sales for U.S. operations were flat year over year, while the net sales at the remaining European operations increased more than 20%, driven by the ramp up of the Sweden facility. Adjusted operating income was $5.7 million, compared to $8.3 million in the prior-year period.

Performance in the quarter was impacted by timing and mix effects, including unfavorable regional shipment and product mix, and the flowthrough of inventory produced in late 2025 that carried a higher cost due to the operating shutdowns that occurred in late 2025. The Company expects these impacts to moderate as underlying demand for the segment’s products continues to improve.

Air and Liquid Processing

Net Sales for the Air and Liquid Processing segment were $37.5 million, an increase of 17.3% compared to the prior-year period, reflecting higher shipment volumes across the portfolio. Adjusted operating income


was $5.7 million, representing a record quarterly result for the segment, an increase of approximately $2.0 million compared to the prior-year period.

Performance in the quarter was driven by a favorable product mix, including higher shipments of nuclear heat exchangers and Navy aftermarket products. Results also reflect the benefits of ongoing operational improvement initiatives, which continue to drive manufacturing efficiency, increase effective capacity, and support improved operating leverage.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $9.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and total liquidity of $30.8 million.

Operating cash flow for the First Quarter 2026 was $1.7 million, compared to a use of $5.3 million in the prioryear period. Capital expenditures were $3.4 million, resulting in Free Cash Flow of $(1.7) million, compared to Free Cash Flow of approximately $(7.2) million for the First Quarter 2025. This improvement reflects continued focus of working capital management.

Net debt was $124.9 million as of March 31, 2026 (defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents), compared to $120.1 million as of March 31, 2025.

Full Year 2026 Outlook

The Company exited the First Quarter 2026 with solid order activity and sequential backlog growth, reflecting continued momentum in the business and improving demand trends. Air and Liquid Processing continues to see increasing demand across power generation and defense end markets. In Forged and Cast Engineered Products, order trends grew sequentially from the prior quarter, as conditions continue to improve following the 2025 steel industry slowdown.

 

The Company expects a more favorable mix and improved conversion over the balance of the year. Overall, the Company believes current trends support ongoing improvement in operating performance as 2026 progresses.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”) provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by us or on behalf of Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Corporation”). This press release may include, but are not limited to, statements about operating performance, trends and events we expect or anticipate will occur in the future, statements about sales and production levels, timing of orders for our products, restructurings, the impact from pandemics and geopolitical conflicts, profitability and anticipated expenses, inflation, the global supply chain, the continued impact of tariffs, global trade conditions, and cash outflows. All statements in this document other than statements of historical fact are statements that are, or could be, deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Act and words such as “may,” “will,” “intend,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “target,” “goal,” “forecast,” and other terms of similar meaning that indicate future events and trends are also generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made, are not guarantees of future performance or expectations, and involve risks and uncertainties. For us, these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: inability to maintain adequate liquidity to meet our operating cash flow requirements, debt service costs, net asbestos payments, and other financial obligations; cyclical demand for our products, economic downturns and insufficient demand for our products; excess global capacity in the steel industry; inability to successfully restructure our operations, complete internal reorganizations, scale our operations, and/or invest in operations that will yield optimal long-term value to our shareholders; inability to obtain necessary capital or financing on satisfactory terms to acquire capital expenditures that may be necessary to support our growth strategy; liability of our subsidiaries for claims alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos-containing components historically used in certain products of our subsidiaries; limitations in availability of capital to fund our strategic plans or at acceptable interest rates; fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar and the functional (local) currency of our subsidiaries relative to other currencies; changes in the global economic environment, inflation, the ongoing impact of tariffs, elevated interest rates, recessions or prolonged periods of slow economic growth, global instability, consequences of pandemics, and actual and threatened geopolitical conflict; increases in commodity prices or insufficient hedging against increases in commodity prices, reductions in electricity and natural gas supply, or shortages of key production materials for us or our customers; inability to maintain compliance with the covenants, representations, or warranties of our various debt agreements; inoperability of certain equipment on which we rely; work stoppage or another industrial action on the part of any of our unions; changes in the existing regulatory environment; inability to satisfy the continued listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange; failure to maintain an effective system of internal control; potential attacks on information technology infrastructure and other cyber-based business disruptions; and those discussed more fully elsewhere in Item 1A, Risk Factors, in Part I of the Corporation’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K and Part II of the latest Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Additionally, as it relates to the insolvency proceedings of Union Electric Steel UK Limited (“UES-UK”), any forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties related to such proceedings, including but


not limited to: the actions of the certain insolvency practitioners of FRP Advisory Trading Limited as administrators of UES-UK and the High Court of Justice, Business and Property Courts at Leeds; the interpretation and application of U.K. insolvency law; potential claims by creditors or other stakeholders; the ability to recover assets; the rights of purported secured creditors to satisfy their claims and reduce our obligations to them; and the broader impact on the Corporation’s condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and strategic plans.

 

We cannot guarantee any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. In addition, there may be events in the future that we are not able to predict accurately or control which may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, we assume no obligation, and disclaim any obligation, to update forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, events or otherwise.


NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The Corporation presents non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted income from operations. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net (loss) income excluding interest expense, other income - net, income tax provision, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation along with significant charges or credits that are one-time charges or credits, unrelated to the Corporation’s ongoing results of operations, or beyond its control. Non-GAAP adjusted income from operations is calculated as income from operations excluding depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation along with significant charges or credits that are one-time charges or credits, unrelated to the segment’s ongoing results of operations, or beyond its control. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the non-GAAP financial measures were adjusted to exclude a change in the estimated recovery from the structured insolvency of our U.K. cast roll legal entity. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

 

These measures are key measures used by the Corporation's management and Board of Directors to understand and evaluate the operating performance of the Corporation and its segments. The Corporation's management and Board of Directors believe these non-GAAP measures enhance comparability to companies in its stated industry peer group. Additionally, a portion of the incentive and compensation arrangements for certain employees is based on the Corporation’s business performance.

 

The Corporation believes these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business that otherwise could be masked by the effect of the items it excludes from adjusted EBITDA and adjusted income from operations. The Corporation also believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management, shareholders and investors, and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allowing for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used by the Corporation’s management in its financial and operational decision-making. In particular, the Corporation believes the exclusion of the change in estimated recovery, UES UK can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of the Corporation’s core business performance.

 

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted income from operations are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations related to the use of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, rather than net (loss) income, or non-GAAP adjusted income from operations, rather than income from operations, which are the nearest GAAP equivalents. Among other things, there can be no assurance that additional expenses similar to the change in estimated recovery, UES UK will not occur in future periods.
