Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. reported higher sales but a net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, as refinancing costs and prior-year one-time income weighed on results. Sales rose to $686.4 million from $667.1 million, helped mainly by favorable foreign exchange.
Gross profit improved to $82.4 million, or 12.0% of sales, driven by manufacturing and purchasing savings that offset inflation in labor and overhead. However, the company recorded a net loss of $33.3 million versus net income of $1.6 million a year earlier, including a $24.2 million loss on refinancing and extinguishment of debt and the absence of about $10.0 million of prior-year royalty income.
Cooper-Standard refinanced its capital structure by issuing $1.1 billion of 9.250% Senior Secured First Lien Notes due 2031 and redeeming its 2026 and 2027 notes, extending maturities and reducing required cash interest. Operating cash flow was an outflow of $69.2 million, reflecting higher cash interest, lower net earnings, and increased tooling-related payments, while cash and cash equivalents declined to $118.5 million.

The company posted a net loss of $33.3 million, or $(1.85) per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.6 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter. The loss included $24.2 million related to refinancing and extinguishment of debt and $4.6 million of restructuring charges.
On an adjusted basis, Cooper Standard recorded an adjusted net loss of $5.2 million, or $(0.29) per diluted share, versus adjusted net income of $3.5 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, last year. Adjusted EBITDA was $51.0 million, or 7.4% of sales, down from $58.7 million, or 8.8% of sales.
Net new business awards totaled $127.9 million in anticipated future annualized sales, including $31.8 million tied to battery electric or full-hybrid vehicle platforms. Cash and cash equivalents were $118.5 million, and total liquidity was $285.8 million as of March 31, 2026.

Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. is asking stockholders to vote at its virtual 2026 annual meeting on May 14, 2026. Holders of 17,755,284 shares of common stock as of March 20, 2026 may vote to elect nine directors, approve a say-on-pay advisory resolution, and ratify Ernst & Young LLP as independent auditor for 2026.
The proxy highlights 2025 as the company’s strongest operational year, with margin expansion, positive cash flow and a 24% increase in operating income versus 2024, plus $298 million in net new business awards, 74% from innovation products. The Board emphasizes strong governance, with eight of nine director nominees independent, fully independent key committees, active risk oversight, and an enterprise risk management framework. Executive pay is positioned as pay-for-performance, using Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow in annual incentives and performance-based long-term equity, with changes informed by shareholder outreach after lower say-on-pay support in 2025.
