Manitowoc (MTW) lifts Q1 2026 backlog to $939.9M on higher orders

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

The Manitowoc Company, Inc. reported first-quarter 2026 net sales of $494.6 million, up 5.0% from $470.9 million a year earlier, driven mainly by stronger tower crane demand in Europe and Africa and higher non-new machine sales.

The company posted a net loss of $6.0 million, or $0.17 per share, slightly better than the $6.3 million loss, or $0.18 per share, in 2025. Gross margin edged up to 19.3% as higher volumes and pricing offset unfavorable mix and higher tariffs. Operating cash flow improved to $27.4 million from $12.9 million, supported by working capital changes, while free cash flow rose to $19.2 million.

Orders increased 5.8% to $645.7 million and backlog grew to $939.9 million, up 18.4% from year-end 2025, reflecting solid demand outside the Americas. Total debt was $447.4 million and liquidity stood at $315.6 million, including $78.4 million of cash and significant availability under the asset-based revolver.

asset based revolving credit facility financial

"Borrowings under senior secured asset based revolving credit facility"

A credit line a company can draw on and repay repeatedly that is backed by its own assets — typically things like accounts receivable, inventory, or equipment. Think of it like a business credit card secured by items on the company’s balance sheet: the lender sets a changing borrowing limit based on the value of those assets, so it matters to investors because it provides flexible liquidity but can shrink quickly if asset values fall or lending rules tighten.

Section 232 tariffs regulatory

"The Company has paid approximately $18.0 million of Section 232 tariffs."

A U.S. law authority that lets the government impose import duties if certain goods are judged to threaten national security, commonly used for metals like steel or aluminum. For investors, these tariffs act like a sudden price hike or import tax on a company's raw materials or foreign competitors, which can raise costs, change profit margins, shift supply chains, and alter competitive advantage across affected industries.

International Emergency Economic Powers Act regulatory

"tariffs paid pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”)."

A U.S. law that gives the president broad authority to control trade, financial transactions, and assets during a declared national emergency, such as by imposing sanctions, freezing property, or restricting exports and imports. For investors it matters because those powers can suddenly block deals, cut off access to markets or funds, and change the value of companies or securities much like an emergency brake that can stop or reroute economic activity overnight.

Adjusted ROIC financial

"The Company’s Adjusted ROIC as of March 31, 2026 was 5.1%."

Adjusted ROIC measures how effectively a company turns the money it has invested in its business into profit, but after removing one-time items and accounting tweaks so the result shows the recurring operating performance. Think of it like checking a car’s fuel efficiency after unloading temporary extra weight: it gives investors a clearer view of the business’s true efficiency and helps compare companies or track whether management is improving returns on the capital used to run and grow the business.

cash flow hedges financial

"Losses on cash flow hedges ... FX Forward Contracts"

A cash flow hedge is an accounting label companies use when they enter financial contracts—like currency or interest-rate agreements—to protect expected future cash payments or receipts from unpredictable moves. For investors, it signals that the company is trying to smooth out future cash variability (think of locking in a price to avoid surprises), which can reduce reported profit swings but also means the company has exposure to derivative instruments and their associated risks.

Deferred Compensation Plan financial

"The Manitowoc Company, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Deferred Compensation Plan")"

A deferred compensation plan is an arrangement where an employer agrees to pay part of an employee’s pay or bonus at a later date instead of immediately, often to reduce current tax bills or to tie rewards to long-term performance. For investors it matters because these promises create future cash obligations and influence executive incentives and retention; they can affect a company’s reported liabilities, cash flow planning and the risk profile if the business faces financial trouble.

THE MANITOWOC COMPANY, INC.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025

1. Company and Basis of Presentation

The Manitowoc Company, Inc. ("Manitowoc" or the "Company") was founded in 1902, and is headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States. Manitowoc, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, provides high quality, customer-focused lifting products and services world-wide through its Grove, Manitowoc, National Crane, Potain, Shuttlelift, and Upfits by Aspen Equipment brands and its support-focused subsidiary MGX Equipment Services. For more information, visit www.manitowoc.com. The information on our website is not part of this or any other report we file with or furnish to the SEC and is not incorporated herein by reference.

The Company has three reportable segments, the Americas segment, the Europe and Africa ("EURAF") segment and the Middle East and Asia Pacific (“MEAP”) segment. The Americas segment includes the North America and South America continents. The EURAF reporting segment includes the Europe and Africa continents, excluding the Middle East region. The MEAP reporting segment includes the Asia and Australia continents and the Middle East region. The segments were identified using the “management approach,” which designates the internal organization that is used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Refer to Note 16, “Segments,” for additional information.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the cash flows for the same three month periods, and the financial positions as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, and except as otherwise discussed, such adjustments consist of only those of a normal recurring nature. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 was derived from the audited annual financial statements. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year and do not contain all of the information included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2025. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations dealing with interim financial statements. However, the Company believes that the disclosures made in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s latest annual report on Form 10-K.

All amounts, except per share data and per share amounts, are in millions throughout the tables in these notes unless otherwise indicated.

2. Recent Accounting Changes and Pronouncements

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2024-03, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 224-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expense." The amendments in this ASU require public companies to disclose more information about their expenses in their financial statements. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods with annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Net Sales

The Company defers revenue when cash payments are received in advance of satisfying the performance obligation. These amounts are recorded as customer advances in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The table below shows the change in the customer advances balance for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

		Three Months Ended March 31,
		2026				2025
Balance at beginning of period		$	18.3			$	18.0
Cash received in advance of satisfying    performance obligations			42.1				30.3
Revenue recognized			(38.0	)			(23.9	)
Currency translation			(0.4	)			0.5
Balance at end of period		$	22.0			$	24.9

7

The Company recognizes a contract asset for certain remanufacturing, repair, and field service work when service is completed but unbilled as of the end of the period. Contract assets are recorded in other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract assets were $10.1 million and $11.7 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities related to foreign currency exchange contracts (“FX Forward Contracts”) and The Manitowoc Company, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Deferred Compensation Plan") that were accounted for at fair value as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

		Fair Value as of March 31, 2026
		Level 1				Level 2				Level 3				Total				Recognized Location
Assets:
Deferred Compensation Plan - Program B		$	9.2			$	—			$	—			$	9.2			Other non-current assets
Current Liabilities:
FX Forward Contracts		$	—			$	0.6			$	—			$	0.6			Accounts payable and    accrued expenses

		Fair Value as of December 31, 2025
		Level 1				Level 2				Level 3				Total				Recognized Location
Assets:
FX Forward Contracts		$	—			$	0.6			$	—			$	0.6			Other current assets
Deferred Compensation Plan - Program B			9.5				—				—				9.5			Other non-current assets
Total assets at fair value		$	9.5			$	0.6			$	—			$	10.1
Current Liabilities:
FX Forward Contracts		$	—			$	0.5			$	—			$	0.5			Accounts payable and    accrued expenses

The fair value of the $300.0 million senior secured second lien notes due on October 1, 2031, with an annual coupon rate of 9.25% (the “2031 Notes”), was approximately $313.4 million as of March 31, 2026. Refer to Note 10, “Debt,” for a description of the 2031 Notes and the related carrying value.

The Company endeavors to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company estimates the fair value of its 2031 Notes based on quoted market prices of the instruments; because these markets are typically actively traded, the liabilities are classified as Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term variable debt, including any amounts outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility, approximate fair value, without being discounted as of March 31, 2026, due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

FX Forward Contracts are valued through an independent valuation source which uses an industry standard data provider, with resulting valuations periodically validated through third-party or counterparty quotes. As such, these derivative instruments are classified within Level 2. See Note 5, “Derivative Financial Instruments,” for additional information.

The Deferred Compensation Plan utilizes a rabbi trust to hold assets intended to satisfy the Company’s corresponding future benefit obligations. The plan assets and corresponding obligations for Program B under the Deferred Compensation Plan are classified within Level 1.

5. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company’s risk management objective is to ensure that business exposures to risks are minimized using the most effective and efficient methods to eliminate, reduce, or transfer such exposures. Operating decisions consider these associated risks and, whenever possible, transactions are structured to avoid or mitigate these risks.

From time to time, the Company enters into FX Forward Contracts to manage the exposure on forecasted transactions denominated in non-functional currencies and to manage the risk of transaction gains and losses associated with assets/liabilities in currencies other than the functional currency of certain subsidiaries. Certain of these FX Forward Contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. To the extent these derivatives are effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the derivatives’ fair value are not included in current earnings but are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”). These changes in fair value are reclassified into earnings as a component of cost of sales, as applicable, when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings. In addition, if the forecasted transaction is no longer probable, the cumulative change in the derivatives’ fair value is recorded as a component of other income (expense) – net in the period in which the transaction is no longer considered probable of occurring. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, $5.0 million of forecasted transactions were no longer probable of occurring, resulting in a net loss of $0.1 million being recorded to other expense - net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. No amounts were recorded related to forecasted transactions no longer being probable during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The Company had FX Forward Contracts with aggregate notional amounts of $75.7 million and $108.7 million in U.S. dollar equivalent as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The aggregate notional amount outstanding as of March 31, 2026 is scheduled to mature within one year. The FX Forward Contracts purchased are denominated in various foreign currencies. Net unrealized gains (losses), net of income tax, recorded in AOCI were $(0.1) million and $0.7 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

The net gains (losses) recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for FX Forward Contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are summarized as follows:

				Three Months Ended March 31,
		Recognized Location		2026				2025

Property, plant, and equipment is depreciated over the estimated useful life using the straight-line depreciation method for financial reporting and accelerated methods for income tax purposes.

Additions to property, plant, and equipment included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were $2.2 million and $1.8 million, respectively.

Assets Held for Sale

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company committed to a plan to sell its Bauxite, Arkansas facility and certain related assets. The Company determined the assets met the criteria for classification as held for sale under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment,” as the assets are available for immediate sale in their present condition and management has committed to and initiated an active program to locate a buyer.

The assets have been reclassified from property, plant, and equipment to assets held for sale on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2026. Depreciation on these assets ceased upon reclassification. The assets were recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or estimated fair value less costs to sell. Assets held for sale consisted of $0.7 million of buildings, $0.5 million of machinery and equipment, and $0.2 million of land and land improvements.

The Company expects to complete the sale of the assets within 12 months of the classification date. These assets are reported within the Americas segment. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to sell the assets at their estimated fair value or within the expected timeframe.

On March 25, 2019, the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Loan Parties”) entered into a credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”) with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative and collateral agent, and certain financial institutions party thereto as lenders, providing for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Revolving Credit Facility”) of up to $275.0 million. The borrowing capacity under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility is based on the value of inventory, accounts receivable and certain fixed assets of the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties’ obligations under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are secured on a first-priority basis, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, by substantially all of the personal property and fee-owned real property of the Loan Parties. The liens securing the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are senior in priority to the second-priority liens securing the obligations under the 2031 Notes and the related guarantees. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility includes a $75.0 million letter of credit sub-facility, $10.0 million of which is available to the Company’s German subsidiary that is a borrower under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility (the “German Borrower”).

On June 17, 2021, the Company amended the ABL Credit Agreement to adjust certain negative covenants which reduced restrictions on the Company’s ability to expand its rental business. On May 19, 2022, the Company further amended the ABL Credit Agreement to (i) extend the maturity date to May 19, 2027 (subject to a springing maturity date of December 30, 2025 if our senior secured lien notes due April 1, 2026 had not been repaid in full or refinanced prior to December 30, 2025), (ii) permit the inclusion, subject to certain limitations, of the crane rental assets of certain subsidiaries in the borrowing base used to calculate availability under the ABL Credit Agreement, (iii) permit separate financing of crane rental assets not included in the borrowing base and (iv) replace the U.S. dollar London Inter-bank Offered Rate with interest rates based on the secured overnight financing rate plus a credit spread adjustment (“SOFR”).

On September 18, 2024, the Company further amended the ABL Credit Agreement to (i) increase the aggregate commitment by $50.0 million to a total aggregate commitment of up to $325.0 million, of which $100.0 million is available to the German Borrower, (ii) increase the swingline sublimit by $20.0 million to an aggregate $50.0 million, of which $20.0 million is available to the German Borrower, and (iii) extend the maturity date to September 18, 2029.

Borrowings under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate using either the Alternate Base Rate or Term Benchmark, Applicable Overnight Rate, Central Bank Rate (“CBR”) or RFR rate (each as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) plus the applicable spread set forth below. The variable interest rate is based upon the average availability as of the most recent determination date as follows:

	Average quarterly availability	Alternative base rate spread	SOFR spread
Category 1	≥ 66% of Aggregate Commitment	0.25%	1.25%
Category 2	< 66% but ≥ 33% of Aggregate Commitment	0.50%	1.50%
Category 3	< 33% of Aggregate Commitment	0.75%	1.75%

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had borrowings on the ABL Revolving Credit Facility of $134.4 million and $144.6 million, respectively. The spreads for Term Benchmark, Applicable Overnight Rate, CBR and RFR spread and Alternative Base Rate borrowings were deemed to be in Category 2 for the period from January 1, 2026 to March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, there was excess availability of $187.2 million, which represents revolver borrowing capacity of $325.0 million less $134.4 million of borrowings outstanding and $3.4 million of U.S. letters of credit outstanding.

12

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had other indebtedness outstanding of $17.2 million that had a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 5.2%. This debt includes balances on local credit lines, overdraft facilities, and other financing arrangements.

On September 19, 2024, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an indenture with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association as trustee and notes collateral agent, pursuant to which the Company issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes with an annual coupon rate of 9.25%. Interest on the 2031 Notes is payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year. The 2031 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured second lien basis, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries that is either a guarantor or a borrower under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility or that guarantees certain other debt of the Company or a guarantor. The 2031 Notes and the related guarantees are secured on a second-priority basis, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, by pledges of capital stock and other equity interests and other security interests in substantially all of the personal property and fee-owned real property of the Company and of the guarantors that secure obligations under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility. The Company used the net proceeds from this offering, together with cash on hand, to redeem all of its outstanding 9.00% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2026 (“2026 Notes”).

Both the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and the 2031 Notes include customary covenants which include, without limitation, restrictions on the Company’s ability and the ability of the Company’s restricted subsidiaries to incur, assume or guarantee additional debt or issue certain preferred shares, pay dividends on or make other distributions in respect of the Company’s capital stock or make other restricted payments, make certain investments, sell or transfer certain assets, create liens on certain assets to secure debt, consolidate, merge, sell, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and designate the Company’s subsidiaries as unrestricted. Both the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and the 2031 Notes also include customary events of default. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility has customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, that all such representations and warranties are true and correct, in all material respects, on the date of the borrowing, including representations as to no material adverse change in the Company’s business or financial condition since December 31, 2021.

Additionally, the ABL Revolving Credit Facility contains a covenant requiring the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio under certain circumstances set forth in the ABL Credit Agreement.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with all affirmative and negative covenants in its debt instruments, inclusive of the financial covenants pertaining to the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and the 2031 Notes. Based upon management’s current plans and outlook, the Company believes it will be able to comply with these covenants during the subsequent twelve months.

11. Accounts Receivable Factoring

The Company has two non-U.S. accounts receivable financing programs with a maximum availability of €25.0 million and €40.0 million. Transactions under the non-U.S. programs were accounted for as sales in accordance with ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing.” Under these financing programs, the Company has the ability to sell eligible receivables up to the customer's maximum limit and the Company's maximum availability.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, cash proceeds from the factoring of accounts receivable qualifying as sales were $63.7 million and $52.6 million, respectively.

Financing charges incurred from the factoring of accounts receivable qualifying as sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were immaterial.

13

12. Income Taxes

The Company’s loss before income taxes includes income from both U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The annual effective tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% due to results of foreign operations that are subject to income taxes at different statutory rates. In addition, tax expense is impacted by losses in jurisdictions where no tax benefit can be realized.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded a benefit for income taxes of $3.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, were $16.4 million and $15.7 million, respectively.

13. Net Loss Per Common Share

The following is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted net loss per common share:

		Three Months Ended March 31,
		2026				2025
Basic weighted average common     shares outstanding			35,665,590				35,273,783
Effect of dilutive securities - equity    compensation awards			—				—
Diluted weighted average common    shares outstanding			35,665,590				35,273,783

Equity compensation awards for which total employee proceeds from exercise exceed the average fair value of the same equity incentive instrument over the period have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share during periods with net income, and accordingly, are excluded from diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Due to the net loss incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the assumed exercise of all equity instruments was anti-dilutive and, therefore, not included in the net diluted loss per share calculations for those periods.

No cash dividends were declared or paid during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

14. Equity

Authorized capital consists of 75.0 million shares of $0.01 par value common stock and 3.5 million shares of $0.01 par value preferred stock. None of the preferred shares have been issued.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company has $29.3 million remaining under an authorization from the Board of Directors to purchase up to $35.0 million of the Company’s common stock at management’s discretion.

(a)These accumulated other comprehensive loss components are components of net periodic pension cost (see Note 19, “Employee Benefit Plans,” for additional information).

15. Stock-Based Compensation

Equity compensation awards may be granted to certain eligible employees or non-employee directors. A detailed description of the awards granted prior to 2026 is included in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Company grants certain share-based payment awards that are classified as liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 718, "Compensation—Stock Compensation." These awards include cash-settled restricted stock units which vest in three annual increments over a three-year period and cash-settled performance share units which vest after three years and are earned based on the extent to which performance goals are met over the applicable performance period.

Liability-classified awards are measured at fair value at each reporting date until settlement. The fair value of these awards is determined using the closing stock price at the end of the reporting period, and is remeasured at each balance sheet date.

15

Changes in fair value are recognized as compensation expense in engineering, selling, and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations over the requisite service period.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company modified certain 2023 and 2024 restricted stock units and performance share units to settle them in cash in lieu of stock. The performance conditions, if applicable, and vesting schedules remain unchanged for these awards.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had a liability of $0.8 million recorded in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets related to awards that are expected to settle in cash.

Stock-based compensation expense, including cash-settled liability awards, was $3.3 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company reports stock-based compensation expense within engineering, selling, and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense over the award’s vesting period, subject to the retirement, death, or disability provisions of the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan or the 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as applicable.

The Company granted no restricted stock units and performance share units to employees or non-employee directors during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

16. Segments

The Company reports segment information based on the “management” approach. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by the President and CEO, who is also the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), for making decisions about the allocation of resources and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable operating segments.

The Company has three reportable segments: Americas, EURAF, and MEAP. The Americas reporting segment includes the North America and South America continents. The EURAF reporting segment includes the Europe and Africa continents, excluding the Middle East region. The MEAP reporting segment includes the Asia and Australia continents and the Middle East region.

The CODM evaluates the performance of the Company's reportable segments based on net sales and operating income. Segment net sales are recognized in the geographic region in which the product is sold. Each reportable segment has new and non-new machine sales. Operating income for each segment includes net sales to third parties, cost of sales directly attributable to the segment, selling and administrative costs directly attributable to the segment, and engineering costs directly attributable to the segment. Manufacturing variances generated by the manufacturing locations within each operating segment are maintained in each segment’s operating income. Operating income for each segment excludes other income and expense and certain expenses managed outside the operating segments. Costs excluded from segment operating income include various corporate expenses such as stock-based compensation expenses, income taxes and other separately managed general and administrative costs. The Company does not include intercompany sales between segments for management reporting purposes. The CODM does not evaluate performance of the reportable segments based on total assets.

16

The following table shows information by reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

		Three Months Ended March 31, 2026																Three Months Ended March 31, 2025

(a)The significant expense categories and amounts align with the segment-level information that is regularly provided to the CODM.

(b)Other segment items for each reportable segment include:

Americas — amortization expense and restructuring expense.

EURAF — restructuring expense.

(c)The amount of depreciation and amortization disclosed by reportable segment is included within cost of sales or engineering, selling, and administration costs, as applicable.

Net sales by geographic area for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are summarized as follows:

		Three Months Ended March 31,
		2026				2025
United States		$	239.3			$	241.2
Europe			150.5				141.5
Other			104.8				88.2
Total net sales		$	494.6			$	470.9

		2026				2025
New machine sales		$	328.9			$	310.3
Non-new machine sales			165.7				160.6
Total net sales		$	494.6			$	470.9

17. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business which have not been fully resolved. The outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain. When a loss related to a legal proceeding or claim is probable and reasonably estimable, the Company accrues its best estimate for the ultimate resolution of the matter.

As of March 31, 2026, various product-related lawsuits were pending. To the extent permitted under applicable law, all of these lawsuits are insured with self-insurance retention levels. The Company’s self-insurance retention levels vary by business and have fluctuated over the last 10 years. As of March 31, 2026, the largest self-insured retention level for new occurrences currently maintained by the Company is $3.0 million per occurrence and applies to product liability claims arising in North America.

17

As of March 31, 2026, current and long-term product liability reserves were $1.4 million and $7.3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, current and long-term product liability reserves were $2.0 million and $6.8 million, respectively. Current product liability reserves are included within other liabilities and long-term product liability reserves are included within other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. These amounts are not reduced for insurance recoveries for claims above the Company's self-insured retention level. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had zero estimated insurance recoveries included in other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Reserves for product-related lawsuits were estimated using a combination of actual case reserves and actuarial methods. Based on the Company’s experience in defending product liability claims, management believes the reserves are adequate for estimated case resolutions on aggregate self-insured claims and insured claims. Any recoveries from insurance carriers are dependent upon the legal sufficiency of claims and solvency of insurance carriers.

18. Guarantees

The Company periodically enters into transactions with customers that provide for buyback commitments. The Company evaluates each agreement at inception to determine if the customer has a significant economic incentive to exercise the buyback option. If it is determined that the customer has a significant economic incentive to exercise that right, the revenue is deferred and the agreement is accounted for as a lease in accordance with ASC Topic 842, “Leases” (“Topic 842”). If it is determined that the customer does not have a significant economic incentive to exercise that right, then revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer. The revenue deferred related to buyback obligations accounted for under Topic 842 included in other current and non-current liabilities as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $18.5 million and $18.7 million, respectively. The total amount of buyback commitments given by the Company and outstanding as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $41.2 million and $39.8 million, respectively. These amounts are not reduced for amounts the Company would recover from the repossession and subsequent resale of the cranes. The buyback commitments expire at various times through 2032. The Company also has various loss guarantees with maximum liabilities of $22.4 million and $24.0 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. These amounts are not reduced for amounts the Company would recover from the repossession and subsequent resale of the cranes securing the related guarantees.

In the normal course of business, the Company provides its customers a warranty covering workmanship, and in some cases materials, on products manufactured by the Company. Such warranties generally provide that products will be free from defects for periods ranging from 12 months to 60 months. In addition, the Company may incur other warranty-related costs outside of its standard warranty period. Costs for other warranty-related work are recorded in the period a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had reserves of $43.2 million and $45.0 million, respectively, for warranty and other warranty related work included in product warranties and other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Certain of these warranty and other related claims involve matters in dispute that may ultimately be resolved by negotiation, arbitration, and litigation.

Below is a table summarizing the warranty and other warranty related work for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

		Three Months Ended March 31,
		2026				2025
Balance at beginning of period		$	45.0			$	45.3
Adjustments for warranties issued in current period			6.2				6.0
Adjustments to pre-existing warranties			2.7				—
Settlements made (in cash or in kind) during    the period			(10.4	)			(6.5	)
Currency translation			(0.3	)			0.8
Balance at end of period		$	43.2			$	45.6

The long-term portion of the warranty liability is recorded in other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company sells extended warranty contracts, which it accounts for as a service type warranty under ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” Revenue associated with extended warranty contracts is deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the duration of the extended warranty period. As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025,

18

there was $10.6 million and $9.6 million, respectively, of deferred revenue included in both other liabilities and other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

19. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company provides certain pension, health care, and death benefits to eligible retirees and their dependents. The funding mechanism for such benefits varies based on the country where the plan is located and the related plan. Eligibility for pension coverage is based on retirement qualifications. Healthcare benefits may be subject to deductibles, co-payments, and other limitations. The Company reserves the right to modify benefits unless prohibited by local laws or regulations.

The components of net periodic benefit cost (income) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are summarized as follows:

		Three Months Ended March 31, 2026
										Postretirement
		U.S.				Non-U.S.				Health and

Orders and Backlog

Orders and backlog are not measures defined by GAAP and our methodology for determining orders and backlog may vary from the methodology used by other companies. Management uses orders and backlog for capacity and resource planning. The Company believes this information is useful to investors to provide an indication of future revenues. Backlog represents the dollar value of orders which are expected to be recognized in net sales in the future. Orders are included in backlog when an executed binding contract with a price that has a floor has been received but has not been recognized in net sales.

Orders for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased 5.8% to $645.7 million from $610.3 million for the same period in 2025. The increase in orders was primarily attributable to higher demand in the Company’s MEAP and EURAF segments. This was partially offset by lower demand in the Company’s Americas segment due to large stocking orders in the three months ended March 31, 2025 that did not reoccur. Orders were favorably impacted by $25.7 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

As of March 31, 2026, total backlog was $939.9 million, an increase of 18.4% from the December 31, 2025 backlog of $793.5 million, and an increase of 17.8% from the March 31, 2025 backlog of $797.8 million. Backlog was unfavorably impacted by $16.0 million from December 31 2025 and was favorably impacted by $20.7 million from March 31, 2025, from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased 5.0% to $494.6 million from $470.9 million in the same period in 2025. This increase was primarily attributable to $14.4 million of higher new machine sales in the Company's tower product line in the EURAF segment and $5.1 million of higher non-new machine sales. This was partially offset by $7.2 million of lower new machine sales in the MEAP segment. Net sales were favorably impacted by $18.9 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased 6.1% to $95.3 million as compared to $89.8 million for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher revenue partially offset by unfavorable product mix and incremental tariff costs. Gross profit was favorably impacted by $3.4 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Gross profit percentage for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased to 19.3% as compared to 19.1% for the same period in 2025.

Engineering, Selling, and Administrative Expenses

Engineering, selling, and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased 9.3% to $90.6 million from $82.9 million for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily due to marketing expenses related to the Conexpo triennial trade show and higher employee costs. Engineering, selling, and administrative expenses were unfavorably impacted by $3.8 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $8.9 million as compared to $8.7 million for the same period in 2025. Interest expense increased year-over-year primarily due to higher average outstanding balances on the Company's ABL Revolving Credit Facility. See further detail at Note 10, “Debt” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other Expense - Net

Other expense - net was $3.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and $5.0 million for the same period in 2025. Other expense - net during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily composed of $3.3 million of net currency transaction losses and $0.1 million of pension related costs, partially offset by $0.4 million of interest income. Other expense - net during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily composed of $4.9 million of net currency transaction losses and $0.5 million of pension related costs, partially offset by $0.3 million of interest income.

Benefit for Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded a benefit for income taxes of $3.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively. In addition, the Company’s effective tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% due to results of foreign operations that are subject to income taxes at different statutory rates and losses in certain jurisdictions where no tax benefit can be realized.

Segment Operating Performance

The Company manages its business primarily on a geographic basis. The Company has three reportable segments: the Americas segment, EURAF segment, and MEAP segment. Further information regarding the Company’s reportable segments can be found in Note 16, “Segments,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Americas

Americas segment net sales increased 3.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 to $268.4 million from $259.3 million for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to higher non-new machine sales and price realization, partially offset by lower new crane sales.

Americas segment operating income decreased $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 to $12.2 million from $17.7 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to unfavorable product mix and incremental tariff costs.

EURAF

EURAF segment net sales increased 15.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 to $167.4 million from $145.6 million for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to $21.2 million of higher new crane sales, primarily in the Company’s tower crane business. Segment net sales were favorably impacted by $14.6 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

EURAF segment operating loss decreased $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 to $5.3 million from $11.3 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease in operating loss was primarily attributable to the higher net sales and favorable product mix, specifically in the towers product line. Segment operating loss was unfavorably impacted by $0.9 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

23

MEAP

MEAP segment net sales decreased 10.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 to $58.8 million from $66.0 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to $7.2 million of lower new machine sales due to lower shipments into the Middle East as a result of the Iran war. MEAP segment net sales were favorably impacted by $3.8 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

MEAP segment operating income decreased $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 to $8.1 million from $11.4 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily due to the lower net sales. MEAP segment operating income was favorably impacted by $0.7 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Financial Condition

Cash Flows

A summary of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

		Three Months Ended March 31,
		2026				2025				Dollar Change
Net cash provided by operating activities		$	27.4			$	12.9			$	14.5
Net cash used for investing activities			(7.9	)			(23.6	)			15.7
Net cash (used for) provided by financing activities			(17.5	)			3.2				(20.7	)
Cash and cash equivalents			78.4				41.4				37.0

Cash Flows From Operating Activities

Cash flows provided by operating activities of $27.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $14.5 million from $12.9 million for the same period in 2025. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by $15.0 million of higher cash provided by the net change in operating assets and liabilities.

Cash Flows From Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities of $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased $15.7 million from $23.6 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease in net cash used for investing activities was primarily due to $12.9 million of cash outflows in the prior year related to the purchase of certain assets and territory from Ring Power Corporation and $2.6 million of lower capital expenditures.

Cash Flows From Financing Activities

Net cash used for financing activities of $17.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased $20.7 million from $3.2 million of cash provided by financing activities for the same period in 2025. The increase in net cash used for financing activities was primarily due to $17.9 million of borrowings in the prior year as compared to $9.0 million of payments in the current year under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s liquidity position as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 is summarized as follows:

		March 31, 2026				December 31, 2025
Cash and cash equivalents		$	78.4			$	77.3

Less: Borrowings on other debt			(4.4	)			(4.3	)
Less: Outstanding letters of credit			(3.4	)			(3.4	)
Total liquidity		$	315.6			$	297.7

The Company believes its liquidity and expected cash flows from operations are sufficient to meet expected working capital, capital expenditure, and other general ongoing operational needs in the subsequent twelve months.

24

Cash Sources

The Company has historically relied primarily on cash flows from operations, borrowings under revolving credit facilities and overdraft facilities, issuances of notes, and other forms of debt financing as its sources of cash.

The maximum availability under the Company’s current ABL Revolving Credit Facility is $325.0 million, of which $100.0 million is available to our German subsidiary. The borrowing capacity under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility is based on the value of inventory, accounts receivable and certain fixed assets of the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties’ obligations under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are secured on a first-priority basis, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, by substantially all the personal property and fee-owned real property of the Loan Parties. The liens securing the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are senior in priority to the second-priority liens securing the obligations under the 2031 Notes and the related guarantees. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility has a maturity date of September 18, 2029, and includes a $75.0 million letter of credit sub-facility, $10.0 million of which is available to the Company's German subsidiary that is a borrower under this facility.

In addition to the ABL Revolving Credit Facility, the Company has access to committed and non-committed lines of credit to fund working capital in Europe and China. There are seven facilities, of which five facilities are denominated in Euros totaling €37.0 million and two facilities denominated in Chinese Yuan totaling ¥80.0 million. On April 2, 2026, the Company cancelled its ¥30.0 million Chinese Yuan denominated facility, reducing total liquidity by $4.4 million. Total U.S. dollar availability as of March 31, 2026 for the seven facilities was $54.4 million, with $4.4 million outstanding.

Debt

Outstanding debt as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 is summarized as follows:

		March 31, 2026				December 31, 2025
Borrowings under senior secured asset based revolving credit facility		$	134.4			$	144.6
Senior secured second lien notes due 2031			300.0				300.0
Other debt			17.2				20.6
Deferred financing costs			(4.2	)			(4.4	)
Total debt			447.4				460.8
Short-term borrowings and current portion    of long-term debt			(10.8	)			(13.7	)
Long-term debt		$	436.6			$	447.1

Both the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and 2031 Notes include customary covenants and events of default. Refer to Note 10, “Debt,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussions of covenants under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and 2031 Notes. As of March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with all affirmative and negative covenants in its debt instruments, inclusive of the financial covenants pertaining to the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and 2031 Notes. Based upon management’s current plans and outlook, the Company believes it will be able to comply with these covenants during the subsequent twelve months. From time to time, the Company seeks to opportunistically raise capital in the debt capital markets and bank credit markets.

Non-GAAP Measures

The Company uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted net loss, adjusted diluted net loss per share ("adjusted DEPS"), adjusted return on invested capital ("ROIC") and free cash flows, which are financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, as additional metrics to evaluate the Company’s performance. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide important supplemental information to readers regarding business trends that can be used in evaluating its results because these financial measures provide a consistent method of comparing financial performance and are commonly used by investors to assess performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered together with, and are not substitutes for, the GAAP financial information provided herein.

Adjusted ROIC

Adjusted ROIC measures how efficiently the Company uses invested capital in its operations. Adjusted ROIC is not a measure defined by GAAP and the Company’s methodology for determining Adjusted ROIC may vary from the methodology used by other companies. Management and the Board of Directors use Adjusted ROIC as a measure to assess operational performance

25

and capital allocation. The Company believes this information is useful to investors as it provides a measure of value creation as a percentage of capital invested.

Adjusted ROIC is determined by dividing adjusted net operating profit after tax (“Adjusted NOPAT”) for the trailing twelve-months by the five-quarter average of invested capital. Adjusted NOPAT is calculated for each quarter by taking operating income plus the addback of amortization of intangible assets, and the addback or subtraction of restructuring expenses, other non-recurring items – net, and provision for income taxes, which is determined using a 15% tax rate. Invested capital is defined as net total assets less cash and cash equivalents and income tax assets - net plus short-term and long-term debt. Income tax assets - net are defined as net income tax payables/receivables, net deferred tax assets/liabilities, and uncertain tax positions.

The Company’s Adjusted ROIC as of March 31, 2026 was 5.1%. Below is the calculation of Adjusted ROIC as of March 31, 2026 and 2025.

		Trailing Twelve Months Ended March 31, 2026				Trailing Twelve Months Ended March 31, 2025

Other non-recurring items – net for the three months ended March 31, 2025 represents $8.9 million of costs associated with a legal matter with the U.S. EPA and $0.1 million of one-time costs.

Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted DEPS

The Company defines adjusted net loss as net loss plus the addback or subtraction of restructuring and other non-recurring items. Adjusted DEPS is defined as adjusted net loss divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding are adjusted for the effect of dilutive stock awards when there is net income on an adjusted basis, as applicable. The reconciliation of net loss and diluted net loss per share to adjusted net loss and Adjusted DEPS for the

26

three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are summarized as follows. All dollar amounts are in millions, except per share data and share amounts.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Other than the update below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 18, 2026.

Our business is subject to risks related to tariffs and trade policies, and changes in the interpretation, administration, or enforcement of such measures could materially adversely affect us.

Our supply chain in the United States includes imported components and raw materials, including steel and steel derivative products. Changes in U.S. trade policy, including the imposition, modification, or enforcement of tariffs and related trade measures, have increased uncertainty and may continue to result in higher input costs, supply chain disruptions, pricing pressure, reduced demand, and increased volatility in our results of operations.

Significant uncertainty also exists regarding the scope, duration, and administration of existing and potential changes to tariffs, including the outcome of legal and regulatory challenges to certain tariff authorities, the timing, availability, amount and administration of any tariff exclusions or refunds, the potential modification or reinstatement of certain tariffs, the results and potential impacts of any country-specific tariffs, any potential claim by customers for reimbursement of tariffs, and the risk of retaliatory measures by foreign governments. Any resulting incremental tariffs, refunds, credits, pricing concessions, disputes, or related administrative or legal costs could negatively affect our margins and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations.

We continue to evaluate mitigation strategies, including pricing actions, sourcing adjustments, duty recovery programs, and supply chain optimization; however, there can be no assurance that such measures will be successful or sufficient to offset the impacts of tariffs or related trade actions.

On April 30, 2026, the Company voluntarily submitted a prior disclosure to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) related to potential errors in the methodology used to calculate tariffs on the Company’s imports of steel and steel derivative products between April 29, 2021 and April 29, 2026. The disclosure was made proactively given uncertainty with respect to calculating certain tariffs and with the intent of mitigating potential penalties in the event errors are identified. The Company has paid approximately $18.0 million of Section 232 tariffs. The Company believes it has a strong legal and factual basis for the method of calculation and the amount of tariffs paid. The Company intends to vigorously defend any allegations of noncompliance; however, the ultimate outcome of this matter is uncertain.

In addition, in April 2026, the Company submitted a tariff recovery claim through CBP’s Commercial Accounting Program and Enforcement (“CAPE”) process seeking a refund of tariffs paid pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”). The Company estimates it paid approximately $25.0 million in IEEPA-related tariffs. The amount, timing, and realization of any refund or credit remain uncertain and subject to CBP review.

Based on management’s current assessment, no asset or liability related to these two CBP-related matters was recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026. The final resolution of these matters could result in material incremental tariffs, refunds, credits, legal or administrative costs, or customer claims and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
