NN (NASDAQ:NNBR) Misses Q2 Revenue Estimates
Industrial components supplier NN (NASDAQ:NNBR) missed Wall Street's revenue expectations in Q2 CY2025, with sales falling 12.3% year on year to $107.9 million. On the other hand, the company's outlook for the full year was close to analysts' estimates with revenue guided to $445 million at the midpoint. Its GAAP loss of $0.26 per share was 60% below analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy NN? Find out in our full research report. NN (NNBR) Q2 CY2025 Highlights: Revenue: $107.9 million vs analyst estimates of $110.8 million (12.3% year-on-year decline, 2.6% miss) EPS (GAAP): -$0.26 vs analyst expectations of -$0.16 (60% miss) Adjusted EBITDA: $13.18 million vs analyst estimates of $13.16 million (12.2% margin, in line) The company reconfirmed its revenue guidance for the full year of $445 million at the midpoint EBITDA guidance for the full year is $58 million at the midpoint, above analyst estimates of $53.41 million Operating Margin: -1.4%, in line with the same quarter last year Free Cash Flow was -$4.42 million compared to -$4.87 million in the same quarter last year Market Capitalization: $108 million Harold Bevis, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, 'NN delivered a solid quarter for gross margins, operating income, adjusted operating income, and adjusted EBITDA. We are pleased with our reported results, new business acquisition, and new business launches. We leveraged the soft market environment to upsize our business development activities and investments. Our soft top-line centers around certain automotive customers. Conversely, we have been able to partially offset this weakness through the contribution of new business launches and precious metals pass-through pricing.' Company Overview Formerly known as Nuturn, NN (NASDAQ:NNBR) provides metal components, bearings, and plastic and rubber components to the automotive, aerospace, medical, and industrial sectors. Revenue Growth A company's long-term performance is an indicator of its overall quality. Any business can experience short-term success, but top-performing ones enjoy sustained growth for years. Unfortunately, NN struggled to consistently increase demand as its $433.7 million of sales for the trailing 12 months was close to its revenue five years ago. This wasn't a great result and is a sign of poor business quality. We at StockStory place the most emphasis on long-term growth, but within industrials, a half-decade historical view may miss cycles, industry trends, or a company capitalizing on catalysts such as a new contract win or a successful product line. NN's recent performance shows its demand remained suppressed as its revenue has declined by 6.6% annually over the last two years. This quarter, NN missed Wall Street's estimates and reported a rather uninspiring 12.3% year-on-year revenue decline, generating $107.9 million of revenue. Looking ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 3.4% over the next 12 months. Although this projection suggests its newer products and services will fuel better top-line performance, it is still below the sector average. Software is eating the world and there is virtually no industry left that has been untouched by it. That drives increasing demand for tools helping software developers do their jobs, whether it be monitoring critical cloud infrastructure, integrating audio and video functionality, or ensuring smooth content streaming.

Operating Margin Operating margin is an important measure of profitability as it shows the portion of revenue left after accounting for all core expenses – everything from the cost of goods sold to advertising and wages. It's also useful for comparing profitability across companies with different levels of debt and tax rates because it excludes interest and taxes. NN's high expenses have contributed to an average operating margin of negative 3.3% over the last five years. Unprofitable industrials companies require extra attention because they could get caught swimming naked when the tide goes out. It's hard to trust that the business can endure a full cycle. Analyzing the trend in its profitability, NN's operating margin decreased by 5.2 percentage points over the last five years. NN's performance was poor no matter how you look at it - it shows that costs were rising and it couldn't pass them onto its customers. NN's operating margin was negative 1.4% this quarter. The company's consistent lack of profits raise a flag. Earnings Per Share Revenue trends explain a company's historical growth, but the long-term change in earnings per share (EPS) points to the profitability of that growth – for example, a company could inflate its sales through excessive spending on advertising and promotions. Although NN's full-year earnings are still negative, it reduced its losses and improved its EPS by 30.6% annually over the last five years. The next few quarters will be critical for assessing its long-term profitability. Like with revenue, we analyze EPS over a more recent period because it can provide insight into an emerging theme or development for the business. For NN, EPS didn't budge over the last two years, a regression from its five-year trend. We hope it can revert to earnings growth in the coming years. In Q2, NN reported EPS at negative $0.26, down from negative $0.12 in the same quarter last year. This print missed analysts' estimates. Over the next 12 months, Wall Street expects NN to improve its earnings losses. Analysts forecast its full-year EPS of negative $1.13 will advance to negative $0.59. Key Takeaways from NN's Q2 Results We were impressed by NN's optimistic full-year EBITDA guidance, which blew past analysts' expectations. We were also glad its full-year revenue guidance was in line with Wall Street's estimates. On the other hand, its revenue missed and its EPS fell short of Wall Street's estimates. Overall, this quarter was mixed. The stock traded up 2.3% to $2.20 immediately after reporting. Is NN an attractive investment opportunity at the current price? If you're making that decision, you should consider the bigger picture of valuation, business qualities, as well as the latest earnings.

NN, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results
Improvement in Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, and New Business Program Company Reiterates Full Year 2025 Guidance CHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NN, Inc. (NASDAQ: NNBR) ('NN' or the 'Company'), a global diversified industrial company that engineers and manufactures high-precision components and assemblies, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. Second Quarter Highlights: (results from continuing operations compared with prior year, where comparisons are noted) Net sales of $107.9 million, down 2.4% on a pro forma basis Gross margin of 16.9%, and adjusted gross margin of 19.5% Operating loss of $1.5 million and adjusted operating income of $4.9 million, an increase of $2.8 million Adjusted EBITDA of $13.2 million, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.2% New business wins were $32.7 million in the first half of 2025, and NN has over 100 programs launching in 2025 that are expected to add greater than $45 million in future sales at full run-rate Harold Bevis, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, 'NN delivered a solid quarter for gross margins, operating income, adjusted operating income, and adjusted EBITDA. We are pleased with our reported results, new business acquisition, and new business launches. We leveraged the soft market environment to upsize our business development activities and investments. Our soft top-line centers around certain automotive customers. Conversely, we have been able to partially offset this weakness through the contribution of new business launches and precious metals pass-through pricing.' 'We have increased the size of our new business program in terms of prospecting, launching, and investing. We now have over 40 people in business development and launch, and we expect to launch over 100 new programs in 2025. We expect those launches will add over $45 million in future sales at run-rate. We plan to invest $18 to $20 million on capital projects in 2025. The twin goals of lowering our costs overall as a company while adding increased focus on growth is working and will be the main drivers of sustained top-line growth and increased profitability.' Mr. Bevis continued, 'Our current expectation is that some of our automotive markets may have similar soft patterns in the second half of 2025. In response, we have activated our own mitigation levers including tight cost controls and working capital actions. We are underway with tariff mitigation efforts with our customers and have positioned ourselves as a tariff problem solver.' 'We are using this opportunity to accelerate our transformation activities. We are actively investing in growth capex, and we have hired additional personnel to accelerate growth in our targeted areas. We recently announced the hiring of Tim Erro as NN's new Chief Commercial Officer and have also added new account managers in our targeted areas of medical, stampings, and electrical products. We now have a core team of electrical harness experts and are evaluating an organic entry into this new market, just as we have done to enter the medical market.' Mr. Bevis concluded, 'Our transformation plan is working and we have increased our efforts during this slow auto market. Lastly, we have fully kicked off an M&A program and are seeking targets that are consistent with our strategy and can help refinance our preferred stock.' Second Quarter Results Net sales were $107.9 million, a decrease of 12.3% compared to the second quarter of 2024 net sales of $123.0 million, primarily due to the rationalization of underperforming business and plants in 2024, the sale of our Lubbock operations in 2024, and lower automotive volumes. These decreases were partially offset by the contribution of 70 new business launches in the first half of 2025 and higher precious metals pass-through pricing. Loss from operations for the second quarter of 2025 was $1.5 million, an improvement of 28.6% compared to the second quarter of 2024 loss from operations of $2.1 million. Second Quarter Adjusted Results Pro forma net sales when adjusted for rationalized sales, currency changes, and the sale of Lubbock, were a decrease of 2.4% in the second quarter when compared to the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted income from operations for the second quarter of 2025 was $4.9 million compared to adjusted income from operations of $2.1 million for the same period in 2024. Adjusted EBITDA was $13.2 million, or 12.2% of sales, compared to $13.4 million, or 10.9% of sales, for the same period in 2024. Adjusted net income was $0.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss of $0.7 million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, for the same period in 2024. Free cash flow was a use of cash of $3.2 million compared to a use of cash of $1.3 million for the same period in 2024. Power Solutions Net sales for the second quarter of 2025 were $44.6 million compared to $50.2 million in the same period in 2024. The decrease is primarily due to the sale of our Lubbock operations, partially offset by higher precious metals pass-through pricing. Income from operations was $5.8 million compared to income from operations of $5.3 million for the same period in 2024. Adjusted income from operations was $8.4 million compared to $8.1 million in the second quarter of 2024. The increase in adjusted income from operations was primarily due to favorable product mix, and lower operating costs. Mobile Solutions Net sales for the second quarter of 2025 were $63.4 million compared to $72.9 million in the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in sales was primarily due to rationalized volume and lower automotive volume. Loss from operations was $1.1 million compared to loss from operations of $1.6 million for the same period in 2024. Adjusted income from operations was $2.3 million compared to adjusted loss from operations of $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2024. The increase in adjusted income from operations was primarily due to improved margin mix of sales and lower operating costs. 2025 Outlook NN is maintaining its full-year 2025 outlook. Net sales to range between $430 to $460 million Adjusted EBITDA to range between $53 to $63 million Free cash flow to range between $14 to $16 million; guidance assumes receipt of CARES Act refund in 2025 New business wins to range between $60 to $70 million Chris Bohnert, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, 'Our second quarter results were largely in line with expectations. We are maintaining our current guidance and given the ongoing tariff-driven uncertainties and the anticipated downstream effects for our customers, we continue to direct expectations towards the lower end of our guided ranges. We note that the uncertainty of the current macroeconomic environment, particularly the potential for shifts in trade policy and interest rates could drive variability in our results, which may fall above or below our current forecasts. Irrespective of the near-term macroeconomic backdrop, we continue to pursue expense mitigation and operational efficiencies to partially offset potential impacts to end market demand. We are investing in commercial enhancements to accelerate future growth, and we remain optimistic about the strong pace of our transformation and growth opportunities.'

NNBR Q1 Earnings Call: Revenue Falls Short, Management Emphasizes Cost Cuts and New Business Pipeline
Industrial components supplier NN (NASDAQ:NNBR) missed Wall Street's revenue expectations in Q1 CY2025, with sales falling 12.8% year on year to $105.7 million. The company's full-year revenue guidance of $445 million at the midpoint came in 2% below analysts' estimates. Its non-GAAP loss of $0.03 per share was in line with analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy NNBR? Find out in our full research report (it's free). Revenue: $105.7 million vs analyst estimates of $109.7 million (12.8% year-on-year decline, 3.7% miss) Adjusted EBITDA: $10.58 million vs analyst estimates of $11.73 million (10% margin, 9.8% miss) The company dropped its revenue guidance for the full year to $445 million at the midpoint from $465 million, a 4.3% decrease EBITDA guidance for the full year is $58 million at the midpoint, above analyst estimates of $53.16 million Operating Margin: -4.5%, in line with the same quarter last year Market Capitalization: $109 million NN's first quarter performance was shaped by ongoing softness in its core automotive markets and broader industrial demand uncertainty. CEO Harold Bevis highlighted that sales lagged internal expectations, particularly among global automotive customers, with management shifting its business development efforts to immediate, profitable ramp-up sales to compensate. The company's new business program—nicknamed PIGS (Profitable Immediate Growth Strategy)—was a focal point, as management stated it successfully secured $55 million in new program wins ramping up throughout the year. Operational cost reductions, including a 16% workforce reduction since mid-2023, were a key lever to offset market headwinds, with management indicating these actions would support profit improvement in the coming quarters. Looking forward, NN's updated full-year guidance centers on a combination of new business launches, ongoing cost reductions, and working capital improvements. Management reiterated its confidence in hitting EBITDA and free cash flow targets, underpinned by what Bevis described as significant open capacity and a large pipeline of new business opportunities—particularly in industrial and medical segments. The company acknowledged persistent economic uncertainty and tariffs as factors influencing its revenue forecast, but expects its immediate ramp-up wins to partially offset base business weakness. CFO Chris Bohnert noted, 'Our Q1 results have NN on pace to achieve full-year guidance, and we anticipate maintaining this pace through 2025,' while also warning that market conditions could push results toward the lower end of the expected range. Management attributed first quarter results to a combination of softening base business demand and successful execution of new business programs, while emphasizing aggressive cost reduction and operational changes. Automotive demand remains volatile: Management cited lower volumes from global automotive customers, which make up 40% of sales, as a primary factor behind the quarter's weaker demand. The company noted a global slowdown in the transition from internal combustion engine (ICE) to electric vehicles (EV), leading to a more balanced market that leverages NN's existing capabilities. PIGS program drives new wins: The Profitable Immediate Growth Strategy (PIGS) was highlighted as a key initiative, with 120 new programs worth $55 million in annualized sales set to ramp up during 2025. Management said these wins are helping offset softness in legacy business lines and are expected to significantly impact results in the second half of the year. Cost reduction accelerates: The company completed a 16% reduction in its workforce since Q2 2023, with further headcount alignment and cost-cutting underway. Management stated that these initiatives are already improving EBITDA per salaried employee and will continue to support profit margins. Capacity utilization supports growth: NN operated most plants on a single shift, leaving substantial open capacity. This allows the company to pursue new business opportunities without significant capital expenditure, supporting both near- and long-term growth objectives. Transformation progress continues: Management reported its multi-year transformation plan is roughly 70% complete, including enhancements to leadership, plant optimization, and the exit of unprofitable business lines. This, paired with improved working capital efficiency, is positioned as a foundation for future margin improvement. NN's outlook is shaped by new business launches, ongoing cost actions, and uncertain demand trends in core markets. New business ramp-up timing: Management expects approximately half of the $55 million in new program wins to begin contributing meaningfully in the second half of 2025, with remaining wins phased in over the next three to nine months. The timing depends on customer-driven ramp schedules and certification processes, especially in medical and industrial segments. Cost savings execution: The $15 million cost reduction target for 2025 is expected to be mostly evenly distributed throughout the year, with some actions back-end loaded. These savings are intended to counteract pressure from lower base business volumes and support targeted EBITDA margins. Tariff and market uncertainty: Management acknowledged that tariffs and ongoing economic unpredictability continue to affect both quoting activity and customer order patterns, particularly in automotive. While NN is pursuing reshoring and tariff-driven requests for quotes, the company remains selective and cautious about new automotive business requiring significant capital investments. In the coming quarters, the StockStory team will be watching (1) the pace and profitability of new business program ramp-ups, particularly in medical and industrial segments; (2) further progress on cost reduction initiatives and their effect on margins; and (3) updates on plant optimization, including potential consolidations. Execution of tariff-driven opportunities and the company's ability to improve working capital efficiency will also be closely monitored. NN currently trades at a forward P/E ratio of 324.3×. Is the company at an inflection point that warrants a buy or sell? The answer lies in our full research report (it's free). Market indices reached historic highs following Donald Trump's presidential victory in November 2024, but the outlook for 2025 is clouded by new trade policies that could impact business confidence and growth.

NN (NASDAQ:NNBR) Reports Sales Below Analyst Estimates In Q1 Earnings, Stock Drops 11.5%
Industrial components supplier NN (NASDAQ:NNBR) missed Wall Street's revenue expectations in Q1 CY2025, with sales falling 12.8% year on year to $105.7 million. The company's full-year revenue guidance of $445 million at the midpoint came in 2% below analysts' estimates. Its GAAP loss of $0.23 per share was 15% below analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy NN? Find out in our full research report. NN (NNBR) Q1 CY2025 Highlights: Revenue: $105.7 million vs analyst estimates of $109.7 million (12.8% year-on-year decline, 3.7% miss) EPS (GAAP): -$0.23 vs analyst expectations of -$0.20 (15% miss) Adjusted EBITDA: $10.58 million vs analyst estimates of $11.73 million (10% margin, 9.8% miss) The company dropped its revenue guidance for the full year to $445 million at the midpoint from $465 million, a 4.3% decrease EBITDA guidance for the full year is $58 million at the midpoint, above analyst estimates of $53.16 million Operating Margin: -4.5%, in line with the same quarter last year Free Cash Flow was -$7.25 million compared to -$4.75 million in the same quarter last year Market Capitalization: $94 million 'NN marked another quarter of solid steps forward across key areas of our transformation, and our results for the quarter have kept us on track with our full-year outlook and five-year plan. Our strategic and transformation-led progress was highlighted by growth and new wins in targeted markets, including stamped, medical, and electrical products, as well as high-value automotive' said Harold Bevis, President and Chief Executive Officer of NN. Company Overview Formerly known as Nuturn, NN (NASDAQ:NNBR) provides metal components, bearings, and plastic and rubber components to the automotive, aerospace, medical, and industrial sectors. Sales Growth Examining a company's long-term performance can provide clues about its quality. Any business can experience short-term success, but top-performing ones enjoy sustained growth for years. NN struggled to consistently generate demand over the last five years as its sales dropped at a 1.3% annual rate. This wasn't a great result and suggests it's a low quality business. NN Quarterly Revenue Long-term growth is the most important, but within industrials, a half-decade historical view may miss new industry trends or demand cycles. NN's recent performance shows its demand remained suppressed as its revenue has declined by 5% annually over the last two years. NN Year-On-Year Revenue Growth This quarter, NN missed Wall Street's estimates and reported a rather uninspiring 12.8% year-on-year revenue decline, generating $105.7 million of revenue.
