He noted that the company is working with its suppliers and customers to address the current geopolitical environment and related challenges -- specifically tariffs and pricing. The company's solid financial position and cash flow generation support its competitive position and anticipated future growth. Joffe noted that over the last several years, the company proactively has focused on significantly reducing its reliance on Chinese suppliers, which today represents less than 25 percent, and has an established footprint in North America that could be utilized to further reduce this reliance going forward. Joffe highlighted that the company generated cash of approximately $45.5 million from operating activities during fiscal 2025, reduced net bank debt by $32.6 million for the fiscal year to $81.4 million from $114.0 million and also utilized $4.8 million for share repurchases.

Gross profit for fiscal 2025 increased 16.1 percent to a record $153.8 million from $132.6 million a year earlier. Gross margin for fiscal 2025 was 20.3 percent compared with 18.5 percent a year earlier. Gross margin for fiscal 2025 was impacted by $13.5 million, or 1.8 percent, of non-cash expenses, and $5.9 million, or 0.8 percent, of one-time cash expenses, as detailed in Exhibit 4. Interest expense decreased by $4.5 million for fiscal 2025 to $55.6 million from $60.0 million a year ago, impacted by lower average outstanding balances under the company's credit facility and lower interest rates. Net loss for fiscal 2025 was $19.5 million, or $0.99 per share, including the impact of non-cash expenses of $25.0 million, or $1.27 per share, and one-time cash expenses of $6.9 million, or $0.35 per share, as detailed in Exhibit 2. Net loss for the prior fiscal year was $49.2 million, or $2.51 per share, including the impact of non-cash expenses of $50.3 million, or $2.56 per share, and cash expenses of $7.0 million, or $0.36 per share, as detailed in Exhibit 2. Share Repurchase During fiscal 2025 fourth quarter, the company repurchased 274,004 shares for $2.7 million at an average share price of $9.98, and for the full fiscal year, the company repurchased 542,134 shares for $4.8 million at an average share price of $8.91 under its current authorization program, supported by solid cash generation from operating activities. The company anticipates further opportunities to build shareholder value through enhanced profitability and strong cash generation. Fiscal 2026 Guidance Motorcar Parts of America expects net sales for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 to be between $780 million to $800 million, representing between 3.0 percent and 5.6 percent year-over-year growth. Operating income is expected to be between $86 million and $91 million, representing between 4.3 percent and 10.4 percent year-over-year growth. The company estimates depreciation and amortization will be approximately $11 million. These estimates do not include certain non-cash items and one-time expenses and exclude the impact of tariffs recently enacted due to the uncertainty and continuing changes. Use of Non-GAAP Measure This press release includes the following non-GAAP measure – EBITDA, which is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial performance. The company believes this non-GAAP measure, when considered together with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to the company's results of operations. However, this non-GAAP measure has significant limitations in that it does not reflect all the costs and other items associated with the operation of the company's business as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the company's non-GAAP measures may be calculated differently and are therefore not comparable to similar measures by other companies. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP. For a definition and reconciliation of EBITDA to net income, its corresponding GAAP measure, see the financial tables included in this press release. Also, refer to our Form 8-K to which this release is attached, and other filings we make with the SEC, for further information regarding this measure.

The company's solid financial position and cash flow generation support its competitive position and anticipated future growth. Joffe noted that over the last several years, the company proactively has focused on significantly reducing its reliance on Chinese suppliers, which today represents less than 25 percent, and has an established footprint in North America that could be utilized to further reduce this reliance going forward. Joffe highlighted that the company generated cash of approximately $45.5 million from operating activities during fiscal 2025, reduced net bank debt by $32.6 million for the fiscal year to $81.4 million from $114.0 million and also utilized $4.8 million for share repurchases.

These estimates do not include certain non-cash items and one-time expenses and exclude the impact of tariffs recently enacted due to the uncertainty and continuing changes. Use of Non-GAAP Measure This press release includes the following non-GAAP measure – EBITDA, which is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial performance. The company believes this non-GAAP measure, when considered together with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to the company's results of operations. However, this non-GAAP measure has significant limitations in that it does not reflect all the costs and other items associated with the operation of the company's business as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the company's non-GAAP measures may be calculated differently and are therefore not comparable to similar measures by other companies. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP. For a definition and reconciliation of EBITDA to net income, its corresponding GAAP measure, see the financial tables included in this press release. Also, refer to our Form 8-K to which this release is attached, and other filings we make with the SEC, for further information regarding this measure.

Insiders Of Motorcar Parts of America Reap Rewards After Their Investment Jumps Another US$833k

Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. (NASDAQ:MPAA) insiders who bought shares over the past year were rewarded handsomely last week. The stock rose 12%, resulting in a US$21m rise in the company's market capitalisation, translating to a gain of 73% on their initial investment. Put another way, the original US$1.14m acquisition is now worth US$1.98m. Although we don't think shareholders should simply follow insider transactions, we would consider it foolish to ignore insider transactions altogether. AI is about to change healthcare. These 20 stocks are working on everything from early diagnostics to drug discovery. The best part - they are all under $10bn in marketcap - there is still time to get in early. Over the last year, we can see that the biggest insider purchase was by Director Douglas Trussler for US$874k worth of shares, at about US$5.86 per share. Although we like to see insider buying, we note that this large purchase was at significantly below the recent price of US$10.16. Because it occurred at a lower valuation, it doesn't tell us much about whether insiders might find today's price attractive. Motorcar Parts of America insiders may have bought shares in the last year, but they didn't sell any. The chart below shows insider transactions (by companies and individuals) over the last year. If you click on the chart, you can see all the individual transactions, including the share price, individual, and the date! See our latest analysis for Motorcar Parts of America Motorcar Parts of America is not the only stock that insiders are buying. For those who like to find small cap companies at attractive valuations, this free list of growing companies with recent insider purchasing, could be just the ticket. Another way to test the alignment between the leaders of a company and other shareholders is to look at how many shares they own. I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. Motorcar Parts of America insiders own about US$12m worth of shares. That equates to 6.3% of the company. We've certainly seen higher levels of insider ownership elsewhere, but these holdings are enough to suggest alignment between insiders and the other shareholders. It doesn't really mean much that no insider has traded Motorcar Parts of America shares in the last quarter. But insiders have shown more of an appetite for the stock, over the last year. Insiders do have a stake in Motorcar Parts of America and their transactions don't cause us concern. So while it's helpful to know what insiders are doing in terms of buying or selling, it's also helpful to know the risks that a particular company is facing. For example - Motorcar Parts of America has 1 warning sign we think you should be aware of. Of course, you might find a fantastic investment by looking elsewhere.

Why Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. (MPAA) Is Surging in 2025

We recently published an article titled Why These 15 Vehicles & Parts Stocks Are Surging In 2025. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. (NASDAQ:MPAA) stands against the other vehicles and parts stocks. Certain automotive companies have held up surprisingly well in the current environment, and that's especially true with companies that supply automotive parts. The high interest rate regime was supposed to crush automotive companies across the board, and early tariffs specifically targeted countries that produced the most automotive parts for the U.S. Even then. These stocks have done well since high interest rates have made it difficult for low-income consumers to buy new cars. Instead, they have opted for repairing their existing vehicles, which has been a tailwind for automotive parts companies for the past two years. The average age of vehicles was already at a record 12.6 years in 2024, so this tailwind isn't going away anytime soon. Customers who have higher incomes have kept on buying new vehicles. It is mostly because of them that consumer spending has held up across the board. Here are the biggest winners from this trend. Even during bear markets, there are pockets of the market that perform exceptionally well. For example, I identified 15 Financial Services Stocks that are up the Most in 2025 in another article. Methodology For this article, I screened the best-performing vehicles & parts stocks year-to-date. I will also mention the number of hedge fund investors in these stocks. Why are we interested in the stocks that hedge funds pile into? The reason is simple: our research has shown that we can outperform the market by imitating the top stock picks of the best hedge funds. Our quarterly newsletter's strategy selects 14 small-cap and large-cap stocks every quarter and has returned 373.4% since May 2014, beating its benchmark by 218 percentage points (see more details here).

(NASDAQ:MPAA) Number of Hedge Fund Holders In Q4 2024: 16 Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. (NASDAQ:MPAA) is a remanufacturer, manufacturer, and distributor of automotive aftermarket parts including alternators, starters, wheel bearing assemblies, brake components, and test solutions for electric vehicle powertrain development. In its fiscal third-quarter 2025 earnings report, Motorcar Parts of America significantly exceeded Wall Street expectations with earnings per share of $0.11 (versus forecasted $0.02) and revenue of $186.2 million (exceeding expected $178.7 million).

We Like These Underlying Return On Capital Trends At Motorcar Parts of America (NASDAQ:MPAA)

If you're not sure where to start when looking for the next multi-bagger, there are a few key trends you should keep an eye out for. In a perfect world, we'd like to see a company investing more capital into its business and ideally the returns earned from that capital are also increasing. Ultimately, this demonstrates that it's a business that is reinvesting profits at increasing rates of return. So on that note, Motorcar Parts of America (NASDAQ:MPAA) looks quite promising in regards to its trends of return on capital. Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. If you haven't worked with ROCE before, it measures the 'return' (pre-tax profit) a company generates from capital employed in its business. To calculate this metric for Motorcar Parts of America, this is the formula: Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities) 0.098 = US$59m ÷ (US$950m - US$349m) (Based on the trailing twelve months to December 2024). Thus, Motorcar Parts of America has an ROCE of 9.8%. On its own, that's a low figure but it's around the 11% average generated by the Auto Components industry. See our latest analysis for Motorcar Parts of America Above you can see how the current ROCE for Motorcar Parts of America compares to its prior returns on capital, but there's only so much you can tell from the past. If you're interested, you can view the analysts predictions in our free analyst report for Motorcar Parts of America . We're glad to see that ROCE is heading in the right direction, even if it is still low at the moment. The data shows that returns on capital have increased substantially over the last five years to 9.8%.
