Here are the DEF 14A proxy statements from Core Molding Technologies, Inc. (CMT) in our archive over the last 12 months, newest first, and each one links through to the document itself with the summary and the scores our analysis gives it.
A DEF 14A covers the proxy statement, with executive pay and the shareholder votes, so if you follow CMT and want that one kind of document rather than the whole filing history, this is the page to keep. The company's other filings, of every form, are on the full CMT filings page.
Core Molding Technologies, Inc. is asking stockholders to elect seven directors, approve a non-binding advisory vote on executive pay, amend its 2021 long‑term equity incentive plan, and ratify Crowe LLP as auditor at the May 14, 2026 annual meeting.
The proxy highlights a transformational 2025 focused on growth investments, including a $20 million Volvo roof program, a $21 million SMC compound win and a new Monterrey facility. Net sales were $273.8 million, net income was $11.2 million and earnings per share were $1.29. Liquidity totaled $88.1 million with debt to trailing 12‑month adjusted EBITDA of 0.64 times.
Return on capital employed was 8.0% and the company reports a total shareholder return of 224% during CEO David Duvall’s tenure. Because 2025 EBIT and operating cash flow missed targets, executives received 0% of their short‑term incentive opportunity, while long‑term equity grants shifted to 50% performance‑based awards. The filing also details CEO succession: Duvall will retire at the end of May 2026, with COO Eric Palomaki becoming CEO on June 1, 2026, and Duvall remaining as an executive consultant through December 2027.
