Fiscal Year 2025
-
Revenue grew 28% in Q4 2025, driven by HPDI adoption, while full-year revenue fell due to the end of a transitional agreement. Cash position strengthened to $27.2 million, debt reduced, and margin recovery is expected as new facilities ramp up.
-
Q3 2025 saw revenue decline due to the light-duty divestiture, but gross margin improved and Sospira delivered 19% revenue growth. Cash position strengthened, manufacturing is shifting to Canada and China, and new CNG solutions target North America.
-
Divestiture of the light-duty segment sharpened strategic focus, with Sospira and high-pressure controls driving growth. Revenue from continuing operations declined, but cost reductions improved adjusted EBITDA. Ongoing Sospira funding and hydrogen market shifts present both opportunities and risks.
-
Q1 2025 saw improved profitability with a net loss reduction, higher gross margins, and positive operating income, despite a revenue dip from the heavy-duty OEM transition to Sospira. The light-duty divestiture is set to close in Q2, strengthening liquidity and focusing growth on HPDI and high-pressure systems.
Fiscal Year 2024
-
Announced sale of the light-duty business for $75.1 million to focus on HPDI and high-pressure controls, improving margins and reducing adjusted EBITDA loss year-over-year. Cash flow from operations turned positive, but liquidity remains a concern until the transaction closes.
-
Q3 2024 saw improved gross margins and a narrowed adjusted EBITDA loss, driven by cost reductions and strong light-duty segment performance, despite a revenue decline from the Cespira JV transition. Inventory is expected to normalize by year-end, and restructuring efforts will continue into 2025.
-
Q2 2024 featured improved margins and a narrowed EBITDA loss, driven by cost reductions and the HPDI JV launch with Volvo. Revenue dipped 2% year-over-year, but gross margin rose to 21%. Management expects further margin gains and cost savings as inventory issues resolve and new growth opportunities emerge.
