ParkOhio Reports Fourth Quarter 2025 Results, including Strong Free Cash Flow; Transformation Initiatives Position Company for Growth Across Infrastructure, Power Management and Aerospace and Defense Markets in 2026

Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ:PKOH) today announced its results for the fourth quarter and full year 2025.

"We will look back on 2025 as a pivotal year in implementing our long-term strategy, which is built around three core principles. First, reshaping our industrial portfolio around our most competitive products and services to drive more durable growth and operating leverage. Second, allocating capital toward productivity-enhancing tools, including vertical integration, automation and information systems to improve execution and support organic growth across our Supply Technologies, Assembly Components and Engineered Products segments. Lastly, strengthening our ability to generate consistent cash flow and improve predictability over time.

"As we enter 2026, we are increasingly aligned with powerful secular trends including electrical infrastructure modernization, data center expansion, aerospace and defense investment, semiconductor production and advanced manufacturing. Our record bookings, expanding backlog and ongoing operational improvements position us to participate meaningfully in these markets as we return to growth and execute on our margin improvement objectives," said Matthew V. Crawford, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

• Revenue of $395.0 million, compared to $388.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, up 2% year-over-year.

Fourth Quarter 2025 Segment Highlights

• Supply Technologies – Revenue of $187.1 million compared to $181.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, up 3%. Sales growth year-over-year occurred in the electrical distribution market for data center expansion, as well as in powersports, semiconductor and commercial aerospace end markets. Operating margins improved to 11.1%, an increase of 240 basis points year-over-year, reflecting ongoing investments in information management tools, automation and AI-enabled transaction processing initiatives designed to improve productivity and reduce operating costs across our global distribution network, which expands our role as a technology-enabled supply chain partner.

• Assembly Components – Revenue of $91.6 million compared to $89.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2024; stable volumes year-over-year with over $40 million of new business launched in 2025. Our vertically integrated polymer extrusion and molding capabilities, combined with a global manufacturing footprint, position us to support fluid routing and critical component applications across traditional, hybrid and electrified powertrains, as well as broader industrial markets. We continue to leverage our long-standing OEM relationships to expand into new product development and innovation opportunities.

• Engineered Products – Revenue stable at $116.3 million compared to $116.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024; record bookings of $217 million in 2025 driven by demand across defense, steel production, mining, power generation and electrification-related end markets. Backlog at December 31, 2025 totaled $180 million, up 24% from year-end 2024. Through our expanding global aftermarket parts and service operations and investments in production efficiency, we are enhancing lifecycle value for customers and positioning the segment for improved operating performance as backlog converts to revenue. Results include non-cash asset impairment charges of $8.9 million in our forged and machined products group to align our investment with current business levels.

• Free Cash Flow: $20 million to $30 million.

The Company does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EPS, to the most comparable GAAP financial measures due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting certain items, including non-cash or infrequent charges, which are not available without unreasonable effort.

Long-Term Positioning

As we mentioned in our commentary last quarter, we believe we are in the early innings of significant demand for electrical infrastructure-related spending. While the diversity of our end markets is a strength, we are tactically positioning the business to take advantage of these trends. As we exit a year of transformation, we remain committed to our goal of building a diverse integrated group of leading high value industrial companies, each of which has a deep competitive moat built over decades on brand, customer relationships, process innovation and intellectual property.
