Q3 2026 net sales of $12.2 million came in below the company's own guidance of approximately $13.5 million, with OEM sales down 33.3% year-over-year and gross margin slipping to 27.0% from 29.7%. Net Loss Attributable to Common Stockholders was $(6.7) million. Offsetting positives: trucking revenue more than doubled to $1.3 million and Q4 guidance targets approximately breakeven Adjusted EBITDA, but that outlook leans partly on tariff-related refunds, and the revenue miss on the quarter just reported is the hard fact investors will trade on first.

Catalysts
  • ▼ Q3 net sales of $12.2 million versus prior guidance of approximately $13.5 million
  • ▼ Q4 2026 guidance of approximately $12.5 million net sales and roughly breakeven Adjusted EBITDA
Risk Factors
  • ▲ Trucking revenue is still small at $1.3 million versus total sales of $12.2 million
  • ▲ Breakeven Q4 EBITDA guidance relies on anticipated tariff-related refunds and cannot be reconciled without unreasonable effort
