Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Astec Industries, Inc. (ASTE) reported third-quarter 2026 net sales of $352.4 million, up 0.7% year over year, and gross profit of $82.3 million, down 2.3%. It recorded a $3.3 million loss from operations and a $12.2 million net loss attributable to controlling interest, compared with operating income of $1.1 million and a $4.2 million net loss a year earlier; diluted loss per share was $0.53 versus $0.18. Astec attributed the gross-profit decline mainly to inflation in materials, labor and overhead.
For the first nine months, net sales rose 14.6% to $1,156.8 million and gross profit increased 8.8% to $288.2 million, while net loss attributable to controlling interest was $0.4 million versus $26.8 million of income. Operating cash flow was $70.2 million, compared with $25.3 million. Backlog reached $670.5 million as of September 30, 2026, up 49.2% year over year.
Astec completed the $70.1 million cash acquisition of CWMF on January 1, 2026. Its ERP transformation had incurred approximately $161 million through the third quarter; anticipated total implementation costs are $180 million to $200 million, with completion expected in 2028 or 2029.

How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Segment Operating Adjusted EBITDA financial
"measure of segment profit or loss used by our CEO"
contract assets financial
"contract assets of $4.4 million"
Contract assets are amounts a company has earned by doing work or delivering goods under a customer agreement but has not yet billed or collected because certain contract conditions remain. Think of it as completed work sitting in a company’s toolbox waiting for an invoice trigger. For investors, growing contract assets signal future cash and revenue potential but also raise questions about timing, cash collection risk and the real strength of reported sales.
noncontrolling interest financial
"the 7% interest in a consolidated subsidiary"
The portion of a business owned by investors other than the controlling owner when one company has control of another; it represents outside shareholders’ share of the subsidiary’s assets and profits. For investors, it matters because those outside claims reduce the amount of profit and net assets attributable to the parent owner — similar to saying part of a pizza belongs to someone else — and thus affects earnings, book value and valuation.
inventory fair-value step-up financial
"amortization of acquisition-related inventory fair-value step-up"
valuation allowances financial
"increased valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions"
A valuation allowance is an accounting reserve companies set against expected future tax benefits when they doubt those benefits will be realized. Think of it like discounting a coupon you might not be able to use: it reduces the reported value of future tax savings on the balance sheet. For investors, increases or decreases in this allowance signal management’s view of future profitability and can materially change reported earnings and equity.

Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Astec Industries, Inc. ("Astec" or the "Company") is a Tennessee corporation which was incorporated in 1972. The Company designs, engineers, manufactures, markets and services equipment and components used primarily in asphalt and concrete road building and related construction activities, as well as other products discussed below. The Company's products are used in each phase of road building, from quarrying and crushing the aggregate to application of the road surface. The Company's product portfolio includes both asphalt and concrete equipment. The Company also manufactures certain equipment and components unrelated to road construction, including equipment for the mining, quarrying, construction, demolition, land clearing, energy, hydro-electric and recycling industries and port and rail yard operators; industrial heat transfer equipment; commercial whole-tree pulpwood chippers; horizontal grinders; blower trucks; commercial and industrial burners; and combustion control systems.
The Company operates in two two
The Corporate and Other category consists primarily of the parent company and Astec Insurance Company ("Astec Insurance" or the "captive"), a captive insurance company, which do not meet the requirements as an operating segment or inclusion in one of the other reporting segments.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Astec and its subsidiaries and have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations governing interim financial statements. However, the Company believes that the disclosures made in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. All intercompany balances and transactions between the Company and its affiliates have been eliminated in consolidation.
Noncontrolling interest in the Company's consolidated financial statements represents the 7 % interest in a consolidated subsidiary which is not owned by the Company. Since the Company controls this subsidiary, the subsidiary's financial statements are consolidated with those of the Company, and the noncontrolling owner's 7 % share of the subsidiary's net assets and results of operations is deducted and reported as "Noncontrolling interest" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and as "Net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interest" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company executed an agreement in February 2022 with the noncontrolling interest holder to acquire their outstanding interest in full for R$10.0 million (approximately $2.0 million, subject to the effect of exchange rates). The transaction was completed on October 1, 2026, and thereafter, the consolidated subsidiary was 100 % owned by the Company.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include excess and obsolete inventory, inventory net realizable value, product warranty obligations, capitalized implementation costs, goodwill and other intangible assets impairment and the measurement of income tax assets and liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates these assumptions, judgments and estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations and comprehensive (loss) income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the financial position as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and the cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, and, except as otherwise discussed herein, such adjustments consist only of those of a normal recurring nature. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved in a full reporting year.
All dollar amounts, except per share amounts, are in millions of dollars unless otherwise indicated.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures," which requires entities to disclose specific categories in the income tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a specified quantitative threshold. The new standard requires disclosure of the amount of income taxes paid disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes and by jurisdiction for exceeding a specified quantitative threshold. Additionally, income or loss from continuing operations before income tax will be required to be disaggregated between domestic and foreign classifications, and income tax expense will be required to be disaggregated between federal, state and foreign classifications. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. The Company adopted this guidance prospectively beginning with the Form 10-K filing for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses", which requires entities to disclose specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement, among other disclosures. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its financial statement disclosures, but this standard will not impact the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
Recent accounting guidance not discussed above is not applicable, did not have or is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.
Note 2. Acquisitions
CWMF Acquisition
On January 1, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of CWMF, LLC ("CWMF"), a manufacturer of portable and stationary asphalt plant equipment and parts. The total cash consideration paid by the Company for CWMF was $70.1 million, and was funded by a combination of incremental borrowings on the Company's credit facilities and cash on hand. The acquisition increases production capacity in the Company's Infrastructure Solutions segment. Pro forma financial information is not included since the acquisition is not significant.
Acquisition-related costs of $0.4 million were expensed as incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. These costs are recorded in "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Additionally, $0.4 million related to the amortization of acquisition-related inventory fair-value step-up was recorded in "Cost of sales" during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

TerraSource Acquisition
On July 1, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of TerraSource Holdings, LLC ("TerraSource"), a market-leading manufacturer of material processing equipment and related aftermarket parts serving complementary crushing, screening and separation applications. Pursuant to the acquisition, the Company acquired 100 % of the equity interests of TerraSource. The total cash consideration paid by the Company for TerraSource was $252.6 million. The acquisition provides the Company with access to adjacent markets in materials processing equipment and related aftermarket parts. The acquired TerraSource business is included in the Company's Materials Solutions reportable segment.
The Company financed the purchase price and related fees and expenses using net proceeds from a credit agreement entered into with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto from time to time.
Total acquisition-related costs of $6.7 million were expensed as incurred related to the acquisition, of which $2.6 million and $4.7 million were incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. These costs are recorded in "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Additionally, $1.2 million and $4.3 million related to the amortization of acquisition-related inventory fair-value step-up was recorded in "Cost of sales" during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
In the first quarter of 2026, the Company recorded an adjustment of $2.1 million related to a refined valuation of deferred tax liabilities, which was offset in goodwill. In the second quarter of 2026, the Company recorded adjustments totaling $2.2 million, related to deferred tax and other liabilities, which were offset in goodwill, to finalize the purchase price allocation.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements
The Company has various financial instruments that must be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including marketable debt and equity securities held by Astec Insurance and marketable equity securities held in the Company's deferred compensation programs. The Company's deferred compensation programs ("DCP") include a non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") and a separate non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan. Although the DCP investments are allocated to individual participants, and investment decisions are made solely by those participants, they are non-qualified plans. Consequently, the Company owns the assets and the related offsetting liability for disbursement until such time as a participant makes a qualifying withdrawal. The DCP assets and related offsetting liabilities are recorded in non-current "Investments" and "Other long-term liabilities," respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company's subsidiaries also occasionally enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.
The carrying amount of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, trade receivables and contract assets, other receivables, accounts payable, short-term debt and long-term debt approximates their fair value because of their short-term nature and/or interest rates associated with the instruments. Investments are carried at their fair value based on quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or, where no quoted prices exist, other observable inputs for the asset. The fair values of foreign currency exchange contracts are based on quotations from various banks for similar instruments using models with market-based inputs.
Financial assets and liabilities are categorized based on the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The inputs used to measure the fair value are identified in the following hierarchy:
| Level 1 - | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |||||||
| Level 2 - | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. | |||||||
| Level 3 - | Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. | |||||||
12
INDEX
As indicated in the tables below, the Company has determined that all of its financial assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are Level 1 and Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy defined above:

Note 5. Product Warranty Reserves
The Company warrants its products against manufacturing defects and performance to specified standards. The warranty period and performance standards vary by market and uses of its products but generally range from three months to two years or up to a specified number of hours of operation. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its warranties and
13
INDEX
records a liability at the time product sales are recorded. The product warranty liability is primarily based on historical claim rates, nature of claims and the associated costs.
Changes in the Company's product warranty liability for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

Note 6. Accrued Loss Reserves
The Company accrues reserves for losses related to known workers' compensation and general liability claims that have been incurred but not yet paid or are estimated to have been incurred but not yet reported to the Company. The undiscounted reserves are actuarially determined based on the Company's evaluation of the type and severity of individual claims and historical information, primarily its own claims experience, along with assumptions about future events. Changes in assumptions, as well as changes in actual experience, could cause these estimates to change in the future.
Liabilities related to the Company's accrued loss reserves consist of the following:

Note 7. Income Taxes
For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $2.7 million, reflecting a (28.1 )% effective tax rate, compared to a benefit of $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, reflecting a 17.6 % effective tax rate. The income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was higher compared to the same period in 2025 primarily due to increased valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions partially offset by lower pretax book income.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recorded income tax expense of $8.7 million, reflecting a 106.1 % effective tax rate, compared to $10.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, reflecting a 27.7 % effective tax rate. The income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was lower compared to the same period in 2025 primarily due to lower pretax book income partially offset by increased valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions.
The Company's recorded liability for uncertain tax positions was $15.0 million and $14.1 million as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The increase is the result of $0.9 million of incremental reserves associated with a research and development credit generated during 2026.
The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of an adverse outcome resulting from examinations to determine the adequacy of its tax reserves. The Company is currently under examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") for tax year 2023. In addition, certain matters from prior IRS examinations involving tax years 2014 and 2016 through 2019 remain under consideration by the IRS Office of Appeals. The Company is also subject to various state and foreign tax examinations. As of September 30, 2026, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that the tax positions it has taken will be sustained upon the resolution of its audits, resulting in no material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. However, the final determination with respect to any tax audits, and any related litigation, could be materially different from the Company's estimates and/or from its historical income tax provisions and accruals and could have a material effect on operating results and/or cash flows in the periods for which that determination is made. In addition, future period earnings may be adversely impacted by litigation costs, settlements, penalties and/or interest assessments.
Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies
Certain customers have financed purchases of Company products through arrangements with third-party financing institutions in which the Company is contingently liable for customer debt of $0.4 million and $0.6 million as of September 30, 2026 and
14
INDEX
December 31, 2025, respectively. These arrangements expire at various dates through March 2030. The agreements provide that the Company will receive the lender's full security interest in the financed equipment if the Company is required to fulfill its contingent liability under these arrangements. The Company has recorded a liability of $0.1
The Company reviews off-balance sheet guarantees individually. Prior history is considered with respect to the Company having to perform on any off-balance sheet guarantees, as well as future projections of individual customer creditworthiness with respect to assessing credit losses related to off-balance sheet guarantees.
In addition, the Company is contingently liable for letters of credit issued under its $250.0 million revolving credit facility (the "2025 Credit Facility"). Outstanding letters of credit under the 2025 Credit Facility totaled $6.0 million as of September 30, 2026. The outstanding letters of credit expire at various dates through October 2027. Unused letters of credit under the 2025 Credit Facility were $24.0 million as of September 30, 2026. The Company is additionally contingently liable for a total of $2.9 million in performance letters of credit and retention guarantees primarily held by its foreign subsidiaries, of which $2.2 million are secured by separate credit facilities with various financial institutions as of September 30, 2026. Unused letters of credit under these separate credit facilities were $7.7 million as of September 30, 2026.
The Company is currently a party, and may become a party, to various claims and legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. If management believes that a loss arising from any claims and legal proceedings is probable and can reasonably be estimated, the Company records the amount of the loss (excluding estimated legal fees) or, when the loss is estimated using a range and no point within the range is more probable than another, the minimum estimated liability. As management becomes aware of additional information concerning such contingencies, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed, and the estimates are revised, if necessary. If management believes that a loss arising from such claims and legal proceedings is either (i) probable but cannot be reasonably estimated or (ii) reasonably estimable but not probable, the Company does not record the amount of the loss but does make specific disclosure of such matter.
Based upon currently available information and with the advice of counsel, management believes that the ultimate outcome of its current claims and legal proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, cash flows or results of operations. However, claims and legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and rulings unfavorable to the Company could occur. If an unfavorable ruling were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

Note 10. Operations by Industry Segment and Geographic Area
The Company has two
Segment Operating Adjusted EBITDA is the measure of segment profit or loss used by the Company's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), who is the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), to evaluate performance and allocate resources to the reportable segments. The CODM uses this measure to allocate resources, including headcount, financial resources and capital resources, for each segment, predominantly in the annual budgeting process. Additionally, Segment Operating Adjusted EBITDA is believed to strongly correlate with shareholder returns and is, therefore, included as a key component in the compensation of certain employees. This metric is used to monitor actual results versus budget and forecast on a monthly basis to assess segment performance as compared to expectations. Segment Operating Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income or loss before the impact of interest income or expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and certain other adjustments that are not considered by the CODM in the evaluation of ongoing operating performance. Beginning January 1, 2026, the Company's presentation of Segment Operating Adjusted EBITDA has been modified to include the gain or loss on sale of property and equipment. Prior periods have been revised to reflect this change.
A brief description of each segment is as follows:
Infrastructure Solutions - Sites within the Infrastructure Solutions segment design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of asphalt plants, concrete plants and their related components and ancillary equipment, including industrial automation controls and telematics platforms, as well as supply asphalt road construction equipment, industrial thermal systems, land clearing, recycling and other heavy equipment. The sites based in North America within the Infrastructure Solutions segment are primarily manufacturing operations, while those located outside of North America generally service and install equipment and provide parts in the regions in which they operate for many of the products produced by all of the Company's manufacturing sites. The primary purchasers of the products produced by this segment are asphalt and concrete producers, highway and heavy equipment contractors, commercial and residential paving contractors, utility contractors, forestry and environmental recycling contractors and domestic and foreign governmental agencies.
Materials Solutions - Sites within the Materials Solutions segment design and manufacture heavy equipment used in aggregate and minerals processing operations in addition to servicing, rebuilding and supplying parts. These operations support civil construction, energy, mining, hydro, recycling, ports, forestry and bulk handling markets. The sites within the Materials Solutions segment are primarily manufacturing operations, with sites in Australia, Canada, Chile, Sweden and Thailand functioning to
16
INDEX
market, service and install equipment and provide parts in the regions in which they operate for many of the products produced by all the Company's manufacturing sites. Additionally, the Materials Solutions segment offers consulting and engineering services to provide complete "turnkey" processing systems. The principal purchasers of aggregate processing equipment include distributors, highway and heavy equipment contractors, sand and gravel producers, demolition, recycling and crushing contractors, open mine operators, quarry operators, port and inland terminal authorities, power stations and foreign and domestic governmental agencies.

Note 11. Strategic Transformation, Restructuring and Other Operating Charges, net
The Company's strategic transformation program includes the ongoing multi-year phased implementation of a standardized enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system, which is replacing much of the existing disparate core financial systems. The upgraded ERP will initially convert internal operations, manufacturing, finance, human capital resources management and customer relationship systems to cloud-based platforms. An implementation of this scale is a major financial undertaking and requires substantial time and attention of management and key employees.
Net capitalized implementation costs associated with the ERP implementation totaled $25.6 million, of which $3.6 million and $22.0 million were included in "Prepaid expenses and other assets" and "Other long-term assets," respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2026. Net capitalized implementation costs totaled $28.2 million, of which $3.6 million and $24.6 million were included in "Prepaid expenses and other assets" and "Other long-term assets," respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2025. Accumulated amortization associated with these capitalized implementation costs totaled $12.0 million and $9.2 million as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

or losses on the sales of property and equipment collectively, with restructuring charges in "Restructuring and other operating charges (gains), net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations to the extent they are experienced.
During the second quarter of 2026, "Restructuring and other operating charges (gains), net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations included certain severance payments and benefits associated with the exit of a Group President.
Management continually reviews the Company's organizational structure and operations to ensure they are optimized and aligned with achieving near-term and long-term operational and profitability targets. In connection with this review, the Company effected workforce reductions during the third quarter of 2026, whereby charges of $1.4 million were incurred and recorded in "Restructuring and other operating charges (gains), net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Note 12. (Loss) Earnings Per Common Share
Basic (loss) earnings per common share is determined by dividing "Net (loss) income attributable to controlling interest" by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted (loss) earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of restricted stock units, performance stock units and stock held in the Company's deferred compensation programs, using the treasury stock method. Potential common shares that have an antidilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. Performance stock units, which are considered contingently issuable, are considered dilutive when the related performance criterion has been met.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the number of shares used in the computation of basic and diluted (loss) earnings per common share:

Recent Developments and Business Conditions
CWMF Acquisition – On January 1, 2026, we completed our acquisition of CWMF, a manufacturer of portable and stationary asphalt plant equipment and parts. The acquisition increases production capacity in our Infrastructure Solutions segment.
Strategic Transformation Program – Our strategic transformation program includes the ongoing multi-year phased implementation of a standardized ERP system, which is replacing much of our existing disparate core financial systems. To date, we have launched the human capital resources module worldwide and converted the operations of three manufacturing sites along with Corporate. We expect the project to conclude in 2028 or 2029 with total approximate implementation costs anticipated to range from $180 to $200 million. Through the third quarter of 2026, we have incurred total implementation costs of approximately $161 million.
See Note 11, Strategic Transformation, Restructuring and Other Operating Charges, net of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional discussion of the costs related to these strategic initiatives.
Economic Conditions – We monitor macroeconomic and other factors that may affect our business such as steel and oil prices and geopolitical conflicts, among others.
21
INDEX
Steel is a major component of our equipment. Increased steel demand in certain markets and elevated freight and energy costs have driven increased steel prices during 2026. We anticipate that steel prices will remain elevated during the remainder of 2026 and most of 2027.
Additionally, significant portions of our revenues from the Infrastructure Solutions segment relate to the sale of equipment involved in the production, handling, recycling or application of asphalt mix. Liquid asphalt is a by-product of oil refining, and changes in the price of oil impact the cost of asphalt, which is in turn likely to alter demand for asphalt and therefore affect demand for certain of our products. Oil prices have routinely fluctuated in recent years and have experienced a significant rise in 2026 due to the conflict in the Middle East. We anticipate that these high prices will persist in the short term.
New or ongoing geopolitical conflicts may cause a downturn in the construction industries in which we operate, cause an increase in oil prices, damage a significant portion of our inventory or materially impair our ability to distribute our products to customers. We monitor, adjust and potentially cease our operations in affected jurisdictions to ensure compliance with any governmental actions made in response to such conflicts.
Whenever possible, we attempt to cover increased costs of production by adjusting the prices of our products. The markets we serve are competitive in nature, and competition limits our ability to pass through cost increases in many cases.
Results of Operations
Net Sales
Net sales for the third quarter of 2026 were $352.4 million compared to $350.1 million for the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $2.3 million, or 0.7%. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by favorable pricing partially offset by net unfavorable volume and mix that generated increases in equipment sales of $2.0 million. Included in the net increase is $8.6 million of incremental net sales from the acquired CWMF business. Sales reported by our foreign subsidiaries in U.S. dollars for the third quarter of 2026 would have been $3.3 million lower had third quarter 2026 foreign exchange rates been the same as third quarter 2025 rates.
Net sales for the first nine months of 2026 were $1,156.8 million compared to $1,009.8 million for the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $147.0 million, or 14.6%. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by net favorable volume and mix coupled with favorable pricing that generated increases in equipment sales of $87.9 million and parts and service revenues of $59.4 million. Included in the net increase is $106.7 million of incremental net sales from acquired businesses. Sales reported by our foreign subsidiaries in U.S. dollars for the first nine months of 2026 would have been $11.8 million lower had the first nine months of 2026 foreign exchange rates been the same as the first nine months of 2025 rates.
Domestic sales for the third quarter of 2026 were $282.7 million, or 80.2% of consolidated net sales, compared to $280.4 million, or 80.1% of consolidated net sales, for the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $2.3 million, or 0.8%. Domestic sales increased primarily due to higher equipment sales of $3.2 million partially offset by lower parts and service revenues of $1.1 million. Included in the net increase is $8.6 million of incremental net sales from the acquired CWMF business.
Domestic sales for the first nine months of 2026 were $934.3 million, or 80.8% of consolidated net sales, compared to $816.2 million, or 80.8% of consolidated net sales, for the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $118.1 million, or 14.5%. Domestic sales increased primarily due to higher equipment sales of $72.7 million and parts and service revenues of $45.6 million. Included in the net increase is $87.6 million of incremental net sales from acquired businesses.
International sales for the third quarter of 2026 were $69.7 million, or 19.8% of consolidated net sales, compared to $69.7 million, or 19.9% of consolidated net sales, for the third quarter of 2025. Increases in international parts and service revenues were offset by lower equipment sales.
International sales for the first nine months of 2026 were $222.5 million, or 19.2% of consolidated net sales, compared to $193.6 million, or 19.2% of consolidated net sales, for the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $28.9 million, or 14.9%. International sales increased primarily due to higher equipment sales of $15.2 million and parts and service revenues of $13.8 million. Included in the net increase is $19.1 million of incremental net sales from the acquired TerraSource business.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2026 was $82.3 million, or 23.4% of net sales, as compared to $84.2 million, or 24.1% of net sales, for the third quarter of 2025, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 2.3%. The decrease in gross profit was primarily driven by the impact of inflation on materials, labor and overhead of $8.6 million. This decrease was partially offset by amortization of acquisition-related inventory fair value step-up in the prior year of $4.3 million and the impact of favorable pricing partially offset by net unfavorable volume and mix of $2.8 million.
Gross profit for the first nine months of 2026 was $288.2 million, or 24.9% of net sales, as compared to $264.9 million, or 26.2% of net sales, for the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $23.3 million, or 8.8%. The increase in gross profit was primarily
22
INDEX
driven by (i) the impact of net favorable volume and mix coupled with favorable pricing of $69.3 million, (ii) lower warranty program costs of $3.6 million and (iii) lower amortization of acquisition-related inventory fair value step-up of $2.8 million. These increases were partially offset by higher manufacturing and other period costs, inclusive of freight, duties and tariffs, of $29.2 million and the impact of inflation on materials, labor and overhead of $23.2 million.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $84.2 million or 23.9% of net sales, for the third quarter of 2026, compared to $83.3 million, or 23.8% of net sales, for the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $0.9 million, or 1.1%, primarily due to increased intangible asset amortization partially offset by lower acquisition and integration expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $259.9 million, or 22.5% of net sales, for the first nine months of 2026, compared to $222.2 million, or 22.0% of net sales, for the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $37.7 million, or 17.0%, primarily due to increases in intangible asset amortization, personnel-related costs and exhibit and promotional costs primarily due to our participation at the ConExpo industry trade show held once every three years. These increases were partially offset by lower acquisition and integration expenses and costs related to our strategic transformation program.
Interest Expense
Interest expense of $7.2 million was incurred in the third quarter of 2026, compared to $7.3 million for the third quarter of 2025, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 1.4%.
Interest expense of $21.7 million was incurred in the first nine months of 2026, compared to $11.4 million in the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $10.3 million, or 90.4%, primarily due to higher average outstanding borrowings coupled with higher interest rates on the 2025 Credit Facility as compared to our previous credit facility.
Income Tax
Our income tax expense for the third quarter of 2026 was $2.7 million compared to a benefit of $0.9 million for the third quarter of 2025. Our effective income tax rate was (28.1)% for the third quarter of 2026 compared to 17.6% for the third quarter of 2025. The income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was higher compared to the same period in 2025 primarily due to increased valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions partially offset by lower pretax book income.
Our income tax expense for the first nine months of 2026 was $8.7 million compared to $10.3 million for the first nine months of 2025. Our effective tax rate was 106.1% for the first nine months of 2026 compared to 27.7% for the first nine months of 2025. The income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was lower compared to the same period in 2025 primarily due to lower pretax book income partially offset by increased valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources are cash and cash equivalents on hand, borrowing capacity under our 2025 Credit Facilities and cash flows from operations. As of September 30, 2026, our total liquidity was $267.2 million, consisting of $63.2 million of cash and cash equivalents available for operating purposes and $204.0 million available for additional borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility, to the extent our compliance with financial covenants permits such borrowings. Our foreign subsidiaries held $32.7 million of cash and cash equivalents available for operating purposes, which is considered to be indefinitely invested in those jurisdictions.
Our future cash requirements primarily include working capital needs, debt service obligations, capital expenditures, vendor-hosted software arrangements including the related implementation costs, unrecognized tax benefits and operating lease payments. In addition, our variable cash uses may include transformation initiatives, strategic acquisitions, dividend payments and share repurchases under our share repurchase authorization. We believe that our current working capital, cash flows generated from future operations and available capacity under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet working capital and capital expenditure requirements for our existing business for at least the next 12 months.
On July 1, 2025, we entered into the 2025 Credit Agreement that provides for (i) the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility, a term loan facility, a swingline facility and a letter of credit facility, in an initial aggregate amount of up to $600.0 million and (ii) an incremental facilities limit in an aggregate amount not to exceed $150.0 million. We had outstanding principal indebtedness on the term loan facility of $328.1 million and $40.0 million outstanding borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2026. Our outstanding letters of credit totaling $6.0 million decreased borrowing availability to $204.0 million under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2026.
Certain of our international subsidiaries in Australia, Brazil, Canada, South Africa and the United Kingdom each have separate credit facilities with local financial institutions primarily to finance short-term working capital needs, as well as to cover foreign exchange contracts, performance letters of credit, advance payment and retention guarantees. The outstanding borrowings under such credit facilities of the international subsidiaries are recorded in "Short-term debt" in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Each of these credit facilities is generally guaranteed by Astec Industries, Inc. and/or secured with certain assets of the local subsidiary.
We regularly enter into agreements, primarily to purchase inventory, in the ordinary course of business. As of September 30, 2026, open purchase obligations totaled $215.4 million, of which $172.8 million are expected to be fulfilled within the remainder of 2026.
We estimate that our capital expenditures will be between $30.0 million and $40.0 million for the year ending December 31, 2026, which may be impacted by general economic, financial or operational changes and competitive, legislative and regulatory factors, among other considerations.

Net cash provided by operating activities
Our operating activities provided net cash of $70.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to $25.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. This increase is primarily due to lower net cash used by our operating assets and liabilities of $54.2 million partially offset by decreased cash inflows from net income adjusted for non-cash items of $9.9 million. The lower net cash used by our operating assets and liabilities was mainly driven by fluctuations in (i) customer deposits of $25.8 million, (ii) accounts payable of $20.6 million and (iii) inventories of $11.5 million. The lower net cash used was partially offset by fluctuations in higher employee-related payments of $18.7 million.
Net cash used in investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $90.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to $260.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to our lower cash used for acquisitions partially offset by increased capital expenditures of $10.2 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $13.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to $212.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to lower net debt borrowings in 2026.
Dividends
We paid quarterly dividends of $0.13 per common share to shareholders in the third quarter of both 2026 and 2025.
Financial Condition
Our total current assets increased to $833.4 million as of September 30, 2026 from $816.6 million as of December 31, 2025, an increase of $16.8 million, or 2.1%, due to increases in (i) inventories of $18.4 million, (ii) prepaid and refundable income taxes of $6.1 million and (iii) trade receivables, contract assets and other receivables of $1.8 million. These increases were offset by decreased cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $7.6 million.
Our total current liabilities increased to $360.4 million as of September 30, 2026 from $328.0 million as of December 31, 2025, an increase of $32.4 million, or 9.9%, primarily due to increases in accounts payable and customer deposits of $19.8 million and $17.4 million, respectively. These increases were partially offset by decreased accrued employee related liabilities of $8.7 million.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our CEO and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of September 30, 2026, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
We are currently undertaking a significant multi-year global ERP implementation to upgrade our information technology platforms and business processes. The implementation is occurring in phases over several years, which began in 2023. To date, we have launched the consolidations and reporting module, the human capital resources module, including the payroll application for all locations within the United States, and the ERP at Corporate and three manufacturing sites.
As a result of this multi-year implementation, we expect certain changes to our processes and procedures, which, in turn, will result in changes to our internal control over financial reporting. While we expect this implementation to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting by automating certain manual processes and standardizing business processes and reporting across our organization, we will continue to evaluate and monitor our internal control over financial reporting as processes and procedures in the affected areas evolve.
