Titan Machinery Inc. Announces Results for Fiscal First Quarter Ended April 30, 2026

Reaffirms Fiscal 2027 Modeling Assumptions

WEST FARGO, N.D., June 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Titan Machinery Inc. (Nasdaq: TITN) ("Titan" or the "Company"), a leading network of full-service agricultural and construction equipment stores, today reported financial results for the fiscal first quarter ended April 30, 2026.

“Our fiscal 2027 first quarter results reflect continued progress on the inventory optimization and margin improvement priorities we established coming into the year,” stated Bryan Knutson, Titan Machinery’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Equipment margins exceeded our internal expectations during the quarter, driven by our progress in reducing aged inventory within our Agriculture segment. While we are encouraged by this strong start to our fiscal year, the underlying demand environment for our agricultural customers remains challenged. In addition to our ongoing inventory optimization initiative, we remain focused on proactively strengthening our core footprint where we are best equipped to deliver long-term returns for our shareholders — and delivering results through disciplined execution, close customer engagement, and continued investment in technology and process improvements to deliver enhanced earnings power as industry conditions improve.”

Fiscal 2027 First Quarter Results

Consolidated Results

For the first quarter of fiscal 2027, revenue was $522.4 million compared to $594.3 million in the first quarter last year. Equipment revenue was $364.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $436.8 million in the first quarter last year. Parts revenue was $103.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $105.6 million in the first quarter last year. Service revenue was $43.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $44.0 million in the first quarter last year. Rental and other revenue was $10.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $7.9 million in the first quarter last year.

Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $89.3 million, compared to $90.9 million in the first quarter last year. Gross profit margin was 17.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to 15.3% in the first quarter last year. The year-over-year improvement in gross profit margin primarily reflects stronger equipment margins given continued reductions in aged inventory, alongside a higher mix of parts and service revenue.

Operating expenses decreased to $94.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $96.4 million in the first quarter last year. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue was 18.1% for the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to 16.2% of revenue in the first quarter last year.

Floorplan interest expense and other interest expense decreased to $8.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $11.1 million for the same period last year. The decrease was driven by lower inventory levels subject to interest.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2027, net loss improved to $12.6 million, with loss per diluted share of $0.55, compared to a net loss of $13.2 million, with loss per diluted share of $0.58, for the same period last year.

Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $1.0 million, compared to $2.6 million in the first quarter last year.

Segment Results

Agriculture Segment - Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $344.2 million, compared to $384.4 million in the first quarter last year, reflecting a same-store sales decrease of 8.2%. The decrease resulted from softening demand for equipment, driven by continued pressure on grower profitability. Pre-tax loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 improved to $6.2 million, compared to pre-tax loss of $12.8 million in the first quarter last year.

Construction Segment - Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $67.5 million, compared to $72.1 million in the first quarter last year, reflecting a same-store sales decrease of 6.5%, which was primarily due to lower equipment sales. Pre-tax loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 improved to $0.6 million, compared to pre-tax loss of $4.2 million in the first quarter last year.

Europe Segment - Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $60.4 million, including a $4.2 million benefit related to foreign currency fluctuations versus the prior year period, compared to $93.9 million in the first quarter last year. Net of the effect of these foreign currency fluctuations, revenue decreased $37.7 million, or 40.2%. The revenue decrease was primarily due to lower equipment demand compared to the prior year period, which had been driven by stronger sales resulting from European Union stimulus programs in Romania. Pre-tax loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $0.9 million, compared to pre-tax income of $4.7 million in the first quarter last year.

Australia Segment - Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $50.3 million, including a $5.1 million benefit related to foreign currency fluctuations versus the prior year period, compared to $44.0 million in the first quarter last year. Net of the effect of these foreign currency fluctuations, revenue increased $1.2 million, or 2.8%. Pre-tax loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $1.8 million, compared to pre-tax loss of $0.6 million in the first quarter last year.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

Cash at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $29.6 million. Total inventories increased by $11.7 million to $914.8 million as of first quarter end, as compared to January 31, 2026. Equipment inventories increased by $10.4 million in the first quarter ended April 30, 2026. Outstanding floorplan payables were $589.0 million on $1.5 billion total available floorplan and working capital lines of credit as of April 30, 2026, compared to $553.8 million outstanding floorplan payables as of January 31, 2026.

For the three months ended April 30, 2026, the Company's net cash used for operating activities was $23.1 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $6.2 million for the three months ended April 30, 2025. The change in cash from operating activities was primarily attributable to timing of inventory receipts and changing mix in floorplan financing, which was partially offset by receivable collections compared to the prior year period.

Additional Management Commentary

Mr. Knutson continued, “The disciplined inventory and operational work our team has executed over the last two years has strengthened our foundation and positioned the business well for the next phase of the cycle. While our first quarter performance came in modestly better than expectations, the underlying industry demand environment remains challenged. As a result, we are reaffirming our modeling assumptions for the full year fiscal 2027. I am proud of our team's continued execution and confident our disciplined approach is setting us up to deliver stronger profitability when industry conditions improve.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and the attached financial tables contain a reconciliation of certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules. As required by SEC rules, the Company has provided a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in the schedule included in this press release. The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, can provide more information to assist investors in evaluating current period performance and in assessing future performance. For these reasons, internal management reporting also includes non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not superior to or as a substitute for, the GAAP financial measures presented in this release and the Company's financial statements and other publicly filed reports. Non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of any adjusted financial measures used in this release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The reconciliation is attached to this release. The table included in the Non-GAAP Reconciliations section reconciles EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to their most directly comparable financial measure. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Consolidated Pre-tax Loss, Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Diluted Loss Per Share, in each case for fiscal 2027 modeling assumptions, is not available without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility of the factors that may impact the comparable GAAP financial measures.
