Miller Industries (NYSE: MLR) posts weaker 2025 results but guides higher for 2026
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Miller Industries reported a sharp slowdown for 2025 while outlining major growth plans. Full-year net sales fell to $790,271,000 from $1,257,500,000, with net income down to $23,014,000 from $63,494,000. In Q4 2025, net sales were $171,168,000 versus $221,907,000 a year earlier, and diluted EPS declined to $0.29 from $0.91.
The company approved a new 200,000+ square foot facility at its Ooltewah, Tennessee headquarters, with expected cost of approximately $100 million, and plans to fund most of it from operating cash flow. Management highlighted more than $150 million in global military commitments and issued 2026 revenue guidance of $850 million to $900 million, targeting revenue of about $250 million per quarter in the second half of 2026 and gross margins in the mid‑13% range. The board raised the quarterly dividend 5% to $0.21 per share and the company returned $15.1 million in 2025 through dividends and share repurchases.
Positive
- Capacity and growth investments: The company approved a 200,000+ sq ft expansion at its Ooltewah facility costing approximately $100 million, tied to European demand and global military production, and guided 2026 revenue to $850 million–$900 million with gross margins expected in the mid‑13% range.
- Shareholder returns and military commitments: Miller highlighted more than $150 million in global military commitments, raised its quarterly dividend 5% to $0.21 per share, and returned $15.1 million in 2025 through dividends and buybacks.
Negative
- Significant revenue and earnings decline: Full-year 2025 net sales fell from $1,257,500,000 to $790,271,000, with net income down from $63,494,000 to $23,014,000. Q4 2025 diluted EPS dropped to $0.29 from $0.91, marking a materially weaker profitability profile.
Insights
Results weakened sharply in 2025, but Miller is investing heavily and guiding to revenue recovery in 2026.
Miller Industries saw full-year net sales drop from $1,257,500,000 to $790,271,000, with net income falling from $63,494,000 to $23,014,000. Q4 2025 showed similar pressure, as diluted EPS declined from $0.91 to $0.29. This signals a materially weaker earnings base heading into 2026.
At the same time, the company is committing approximately $100 million to expand its Ooltewah manufacturing footprint, intending to fund most of this from operating cash flow. Management also cites more than $150 million in global military commitments, suggesting a growing defense-related demand stream, though timing and conversion into revenue will depend on program execution and customer schedules described only at a high level.
Looking ahead, guidance calls for $850 million to $900 million of 2026 revenue, with production volumes starting near Q4 2025 levels and activity increasing through the first and second quarters of 2026. Revenue is expected to approach $250 million per quarter in the second half of 2026 and gross margins to return to the mid‑13% range for the year, indicating management’s expectation of a rebound from 2025’s downturn.

1 All comparisons are made to prior year period unless otherwise specified
“We are extremely proud of how our team executed throughout 2025,” said William G. Miller II, Chief Executive Officer. “From normalizing distributor inventory levels to strengthening our European footprint and preparing for major military programs, we enter 2026 with tremendous momentum.”
Miller continued, “Our manufacturing expansion in Ooltewah, combined with our European investments and disciplined financial approach, should position us to meet global demand, and continue delivering value to our shareholders for years to come.”
Ooltewah, TN Manufacturing Capacity Expansion
To support future growth, European needs and defense production commitments, Miller Industries announced that it is adding a new 200,000+ sq ft facility at its Ooltewah headquarters site, at a cost of approximately $100 million. As the Company expects to continue its strong cash generation, Miller Industries anticipates funding the majority of this expansion through operating cash flow over the next several years.
This expansion is intended to:
1.Increase Overall Production Capacity and Efficiency
| ● | With distributor inventories returning to historically average levels, production volumes are expected to rise meaningfully throughout the first and second quarters of 2026 and return to a steady level to meet retail deliveries. |
| ● | The new facility will significantly expand output capacity to meet growing domestic and international demand, reduce lead times, and reinforce Miller Industries’ global leadership in heavy‑duty recovery vehicle technology. |
| ● | In particular, the expansion will increase output capacity for heavy‑duty recovery units, which remain the Company’s largest global export. |
2.Support European Demand Through U.S. Backfill, Integrated Capacity & Regional Expansion
| ● | U.S. production will continue to serve as a critical backbone for European demand with the addition of Omars, the expansion of Jige’s heavy‑duty integration, and production enhancements at the Company’s Boniface facility. |
| ● | The combination of Jige expansion, Omars integration, and Boniface growth supported by U.S. backfill capability will help to ensure production stability, improved lead times, and a fully integrated supply strategy globally. |
3.Prepare for Higher-Volume Global Military Production
| ● | With more than $150 million in military commitments secured and additional global RFQs underway, the new facility will be capable of supporting higher-volume global defense‑grade recovery vehicle production. |
| ● | Military programs production is scheduled to begin in 2027 and accelerate into 2028 and 2029, requiring enhanced capacity, specialized equipment, and advanced production flow capabilities. |
Return of Capital to Shareholders
The Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.21, a 5% increase from the $0.20 dividend declared in the prior year period. The dividend is payable March 23, 2026, to shareholders of record as of March 16, 2026, and represents the sixty-first consecutive quarter that Miller Industries has paid a dividend. Additionally, Miller Industries repurchased approximately $2.2 million of stock during the fourth quarter of 2025, and paid $15.1 million in total dividends and share repurchases in 2025 as part of its commitment to driving shareholder value creation.
2026 Guidance and Production Outlook
The Company expects to generate $850 million to $900 million in revenue for the full year 2026.
With distributor inventories returning to historical average levels during 2025, Miller Industries expects 2026 production volumes to begin at approximately fourth quarter 2025 levels, with manufacturing activity increasing throughout the first and second quarters. Production volumes are expected to meet retail activity levels in the third and fourth quarter of 2026, with
revenue approaching $250 million per quarter by the second half of 2026. As product shifts to a historical percentage of manufactured product and chassis, gross margins are expected to return to historical levels in the mid‑13% range for the full year of 2026.
