Record EBITDA and $7.4B bookings for Visteon (NASDAQ: VC) in 2025

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Visteon Corporation reported solid fourth quarter and full-year 2025 results with record profitability on key non-GAAP metrics despite lower GAAP earnings. Full-year net sales were $3.77 billion, slightly below 2024, while net income attributable to Visteon was $201 million, or $7.28 diluted EPS, down mainly due to changes in deferred tax valuation methodology.

The company delivered record adjusted EBITDA of $492 million, a 13.1% margin, and operating cash flow of $410 million with $292 million of adjusted free cash flow. Visteon booked a record $7.4 billion of new business and launched 86 new products across 19 OEMs. Capital deployment included $57 million of share repurchases, $50 million of acquisitions, and a quarterly dividend that will increase 36% in Q1 2026 to $0.375 per share. For 2026, guidance targets sales of $3.625–$3.825 billion, adjusted EBITDA of $455–$495 million, and adjusted free cash flow of $170–$210 million.

Insights

Equity Analyst

Visteon posted record 2025 EBITDA and cash generation, while GAAP earnings fell on tax accounting changes.

Visteon delivered full-year net sales of $3.77 billion, slightly below 2024, but improved profitability with record adjusted EBITDA of $492 million and a 13.1% margin. Operating cash flow reached $410 million, supporting both growth investments and shareholder returns.

GAAP net income attributable to Visteon declined to $201 million (diluted EPS $7.28) from 2024, primarily due to a change in accounting for U.S. deferred tax assets and related valuation allowance, rather than a deterioration in operating performance. Adjusted net income rose to $214 million.

The company reported record $7.4 billion in new business wins and launched 86 products, indicating strong commercial traction in digital cockpit and adjacent markets. Capital allocation remained balanced with $57 million of share repurchases, $50 million of acquisitions, and a 36% dividend increase to $0.375 per share payable on March 16, 2026. 2026 guidance implies broadly stable adjusted EBITDA and lower adjusted free cash flow of $170–$210 million versus 2025, suggesting a consolidation year after strong gains.

NEWS RELEASE

Visteon Delivers Record Gross Margin

and Adjusted EBITDA in 2025

VAN BUREN TOWNSHIP, Mich., Feb. 19, 2026 — Visteon Corporation (NASDAQ: VC) today reported fourth quarter and full-year 2025 financial results. Highlights include:

•$948 million net sales in Q4 and $3,768 million for the full year

•Net income of $74 million in Q4 and $201 million for the full year

•Q4 earnings per share (EPS) of $2.67 and adjusted EPS of $2.96

•Adjusted EBITDA of $110 million in Q4 and record $492 million for the full year

•Operating cash flow of $410 million and adjusted free cash flow of $292 million for the full year

•Launched 86 new products and won record $7.4 billion of new business in 2025

•Repurchased $57 million of shares in 2025

•Increasing quarterly dividend in Q1 2026 by 36% to $0.375 per share

Fourth Quarter Financial Results

Visteon reported net sales of $948 million, reflecting solid demand for cockpit products. Sales performance was supported by continued strength in displays and clusters, particularly in Europe, partially offset by lower battery management system (BMS) volumes and previously disclosed customer production disruptions, including the temporary shutdown at Jaguar Land Rover and the impact of the Novelis fire affecting Ford. For the quarter, we delivered 7% market outperformance relative to Visteon customer vehicle production globally, driven primarily by display growth and new program launches.

Gross margin in the fourth quarter was $122 million. Net income attributable to Visteon was $74 million, or $2.67 per diluted share. Net income decreased from the prior year, primarily due to year-over-year changes in the Company’s valuation allowance assessment. The decline also reflects slightly lower adjusted EBITDA, and a non-cash charge related to the transfer of a portion of the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension obligations to a third-party insurer.  

Adjusted EBITDA was $110 million, representing a margin of 11.6%. Results reflect continued operating discipline and productivity across the business. The Company benefited from a one-time customer recovery that was more than offset by specific warranty expense.

Full-Year Financial Results

Visteon reported full-year 2025 net sales of $3,768 million. Sales performance reflected continued strength in digital cockpit electronics, partially offset by lower battery management system (BMS) volumes and reduced customer recoveries. Visteon delivered approximately 2% growth-over-market globally, absorbing a 7% growth-over-market headwind from BMS and China.

Gross margin for the full year was $532 million. Net income attributable to Visteon was $201 million, or $7.28 per diluted share, reflecting a decline from the prior year due to year-over-year changes in the

Company's valuation allowance assessment, offset in part by lower restructuring costs and higher earnings from non-consolidated affiliates.

Adjusted EBITDA was a record $492 million representing a margin of 13.1%. The results reflect the benefit of strong operational performance, cost and commercial discipline, and continued progress on our vertical integration and insourcing initiatives.

Cash provided by operations was $410 million. Adjusted free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure as defined below, was $292 million. Cash flow benefited from the strong year-over-year improvement in adjusted EBITDA and disciplined capital investments.

Visteon continued to execute on its balanced capital allocation strategy. During 2025, the company repurchased $57 million of shares, initiated a quarterly dividend, and invested $50 million in acquisitions. In addition, on February 18, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors increased the quarterly dividend to $0.375 per share on its common stock. The dividend is payable on March 16, 2026, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 2, 2026.

New Business Wins and Product Launch Highlights

Visteon won a record $7.4 billion of new business with strong representation in all digital cockpit product categories. Wins included $3.6 billion of displays, $2.1 billion of SmartCore™ and infotainment including a High-Performance Compute program with integrated edge AI, $1.4 billion of clusters, and $0.3 billion of electrification business.

Highlights during the fourth quarter include a center information display for a heavy-duty trucks platform for a North American OEM, a display and infotainment system for SUV and truck models for a Japanese OEM, a driver display for an entry-level sedan in China for a Japanese OEM, and our third SmartCore™ HPC win with a domestic Chinese OEM. We also secured $1.1 billion of new business in the commercial vehicle and two-wheeler segments, demonstrating our continued expansion into adjacent markets.

Visteon launched 86 new products across 19 OEM customers in 2025, including an increasing mix of hybrid, multi-powertrain, and adjacent-market programs. Launches were balanced regionally, with roughly one-third in each key region - Americas, Europe, and Asia. Key fourth quarter launches included a SmartCore™ and multi-display system with Mahindra for the popular XUV7XO in India, a SmartCore™ for the Zeekr 7 electric SUV in China, and digital clusters on the Toyota Corolla in China and Tata Sierra in India. Other launches included a hybrid cluster for Ford's best-selling vehicle, the F-150, and a center display on the Mazda CX-5 in China.

Outlook for 2026

Visteon's full-year 2026 guidance anticipates sales in the range of $3.625 billion to $3.825 billion, adjusted EBITDA in the range of $455 million to $495 million, and adjusted free cash flow in the range of $170 million to $210 million.

“2025 was another year of disciplined execution and strategic progress for Visteon,” said President and CEO Sachin Lawande. “Looking ahead, 2026 is about positioning the company for the next phase of growth -- scaling our next-generation cockpit platforms, deepening engagement with growth-oriented customers, and expanding into adjacent markets.”

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(In millions except per share amounts)

(Unaudited)

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA is presented as a supplemental measure of the Company's performance that management believes is useful to investors because the excluded items may vary significantly in timing or amounts and/or may obscure trends useful in evaluating and comparing the Company's operating activities across reporting periods. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to the Company adjusted to eliminate the impact of depreciation and amortization, net restructuring, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, non-cash, stock-based compensation expense, net interest (income) expense, net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests, equity in net (income) loss of non-consolidated affiliates, and other gains and losses not reflective of the Company's ongoing operations. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

*Amounts shown reflect the change in accounting principle related to the method for assessing the realizability of U.S. deferred tax assets described in the Company's 2025 Form 10-K.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under U.S. GAAP and does not purport to be a substitute for net income as an indicator of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and is not intended to be a measure of cash flow available for management's discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. In addition, the Company uses adjusted EBITDA (i) as a factor in incentive compensation decisions, (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company's business strategies, and (iii) because the Company's credit agreements use similar measures for compliance with certain covenants.

1 Based on mid-point of the range of the Company's financial guidance.

Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow: Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are presented as supplemental measures of the Company's liquidity that management believes are useful to investors in analyzing the Company's ability to service and repay its debt. The Company defines free cash flow as cash flow provided from operating activities less capital expenditures, including intangibles. The Company defines adjusted free cash flow as cash flow provided from operating activities less capital expenditures, including intangibles as further adjusted for restructuring related payments. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP and do not purport to be a substitute for cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow have limitations as analytical tools as they do not reflect cash used to service debt and do not reflect funds available for investment or other discretionary uses. In addition, the Company uses free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow (i) as factors in incentive compensation decisions and (ii) for planning and forecasting future periods.

2 Based on mid-point of the range of the Company's financial guidance.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings Per Share: Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are presented as supplemental measures that management believes are useful to investors in analyzing the Company's profitability, providing comparability between periods by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of recurring business operating results. The Company believes management and investors benefit from referring to these supplemental measures in assessing company performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. The Company defines adjusted net income as net income attributable to Visteon adjusted to eliminate the impact of net restructuring, other gains and losses not reflective of the Company's ongoing operations and related tax effects. The Company defines adjusted earnings per share as adjusted net income divided by diluted shares. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
