“Our second quarter results reflect solid demand and order growth, though margin recovery progressed more slowly than we expected,” said Dave Huml, Tennant President and Chief Executive Officer. “Orders grew across most of our regions, robotics revenue grew approximately 37%, and backlog continued to build, underscoring the strength of underlying demand for our products. At the same time, residual ERP-related inefficiencies in North America and margin pressure in EMEA weighed on profitability more than we anticipated. We are taking targeted actions to address these challenges. Reflecting the strength of our order book, backlog, and continued robotics momentum, we are raising our full-year net sales guidance while lowering our full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance range to reflect both the profitability impacts experienced in the first half of the year and a more measured pace of margin recovery in the second half.”

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2026 totaled $324.0 million, a 1.7% increase compared to consolidated net sales of $318.6 million in the second quarter of 2025. The components of the consolidated net sales change were as follows:

Organic Sales

Organic sales, which exclude the effects of foreign currency and acquisitions, decreased 0.5% in the second quarter compared to the prior year. This decrease was the result of price realization being more than offset by lower volume, reflecting production and fulfillment constraints in North America and softer demand in certain EMEA and APAC markets.

Americas (b): The 1.4% increase in the second quarter was primarily driven by price realization and continued strength in Latin America, partially offset by lower volumes in North America due to production and fulfillment constraints.

EMEA (c): The 2.8% decrease in the second quarter was primarily due to lower equipment volumes in certain European markets, including parts of Southern Europe and the Benelux region, as well as softer demand in export markets impacted by geopolitical developments in the Middle East.

APAC (d): The 10.6% decrease in the second quarter was primarily driven by lower equipment volumes across most countries, reflecting softer market demand and distributor overstock in certain markets, partially offset by price realization and volume growth in India.

Operating Results

The gross profit margin of 39.5% in the second quarter of 2026 was 260 basis points lower compared to the second quarter of 2025. The margin rate decline was driven primarily by ERP-related recovery costs, supply constraints, and elevated freight and tariff-related material costs in North America. In EMEA, margin was pressured by competitive price concessions, volume deleverage, and unfavorable mix. These impacts were partially offset by price realization and cost management actions.

Selling and administrative ("S&A") expense totaled $99.5 million in the second quarter of 2026, a $5.8 million increase compared to the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by unfavorable foreign currency, higher people-related costs and technology spend, partially offset by lower bad debt expense and other administrative expenses. S&A expense as a percentage of sales was 30.7% in the second quarter of 2026, compared to 29.4% in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted S&A (a) as a percentage of net sales increased to 29.1% in the second quarter of 2026, compared to 27.3% in the second quarter of 2025.

Research and development ("R&D") expense totaled $12.5 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $9.8 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by continued investment in innovation, including robotics and autonomous solutions.

Adjusted EBITDA (a) was $35.3 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $51.0 million in the prior-year period. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA (a) was primarily due to gross margin declines coupled with S&A deleverage. Adjusted EBITDA margin (a) for the second quarter of 2026 was 10.9%, down 510 basis points compared to 16.0% in the prior-year period.

Net income was $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $20.2 million in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted net income (a) was $14.4 million in the second quarter of 2026, a decrease of $13.4 million compared to the second quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by lower operating performance from gross margin compression coupled with S&A deleverage.

Adjusted diluted EPS (a) was $0.83 in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $1.49 in the second quarter of 2025. The decrease was driven by lower adjusted net income resulting from gross margin compression and S&A deleverage, partially offset by a reduction of approximately 1.5 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding versus the prior-year period.

Cash Flow, Liquidity and Capital Allocation

Tennant generated $5.0 million of cash flow for operating activities during the second quarter of 2026, a $17.5 million decrease compared to the prior‑year period, primarily driven by lower operating performance and increased working capital requirements, including higher accounts receivable and inventory balances and lower accounts payable. Working capital levels and cash conversion were adversely affected by operational and process inefficiencies associated with the North America ERP implementation, and management remains focused on improving working capital efficiency as stabilization and fulfillment efforts progress.

Liquidity remained strong with a balance of $76.9 million in cash and cash equivalents at the end of the second quarter, and $289.4 million of unused borrowing capacity under the Company's revolving credit facility.

The Company continues to strategically deploy cash flow to meet operational capital requirements and to return capital to shareholders in alignment with its capital allocation priorities. During the second quarter of 2026, the Company invested $5.3 million in capital expenditures and returned $5.3 million to shareholders through dividends. The Company remains diligent in managing its debt and maintaining a strong balance sheet. The Company had a net leverage ratio (Adjusted Net Debt (a) / trailing twelve months (TTM) Adjusted EBITDA (a)) of 2.0 times as of June 30, 2026.

(a) See supplemental non-GAAP financial tables below for a reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP.

2026 Guidance

Our first-half results reflect solid demand and order growth, though gross margin recovery progressed more slowly than we anticipated. Residual ERP-related inefficiencies in North America, together with pricing and volume pressure in EMEA and incremental freight and material costs tied to Middle East disruptions, weighed on margin performance during the second quarter. Order momentum remained healthy, with orders up 6.6% year over year and backlog building to $127 million, and robotics revenue grew approximately 37% year over year. Based on our first-half performance and our outlook for the second half, we are raising our full-year net sales guidance, reflecting our order and backlog position and continued robotics momentum, while lowering our full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance range to reflect the slower pace of margin recovery, as follows.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release and the related conference call include presentation of Non-GAAP measures that include or exclude special items of a nonrecurring and/or nonoperational nature (hereinafter referred to as “special items”). Management believes that the Non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s results of operations and financial condition because they permit a more meaningful comparison and understanding of Tennant Company’s operating performance for the current, past or future periods. Management uses these Non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and to gain an understanding of the comparative operating performance of the Company.

The Company believes that disclosing S&A expense – as adjusted, S&A expense as a percent of net sales – as adjusted, operating income – as adjusted, operating margin – as adjusted, income before income taxes – as adjusted, income tax expense – as adjusted, net income – as adjusted, net income per diluted share – as adjusted, EBITDA – as adjusted, and EBITDA margin – as adjusted (collectively, the “Non-GAAP measures”), excluding the impacts from special items, is useful to investors as a measure of operating performance. The Company uses these measures to monitor and evaluate operating performance. The Non-GAAP measures are financial measures that do not reflect United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The Company calculates the Non-GAAP measures by adjusting for legal contingency costs, ERP modernization costs, ERP amortization costs, legal and financial advisory costs, restructuring-related costs, transaction and integration-related costs, equity method losses and amortization expense. The Company calculates income tax expense – as adjusted by adjusting for the tax effect of these Non-GAAP measures. The Company calculates net income per diluted share – as adjusted by adjusting for the after-tax effect of these Non-GAAP measures and dividing the result by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding. The Company calculates EBITDA margin – as adjusted by dividing EBITDA – as adjusted by net sales.
