RICHMOND, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tredegar Corporation (NYSE:TG, also the “Company” or “Tredegar”) today reported third quarter financial results for the period ended September 30, 2026.

CEO Commentary

“We are well on the way on our journey to re-engineer Tredegar into a stronger operating company and create sustainable shareholder value,” said Dr. Arijit (Bapi) DasGupta, president and chief executive officer. “Thus far in 2026, we have made substantial progress through our One Tredegar initiative, bringing our businesses under unified enterprise leadership, simplifying the organization, removing functional redundancies and strengthening key capabilities. These changes are creating clearer accountability, faster decision-making and a stronger foundation for improving operating performance, generating cash and allocating capital with greater discipline.”

“An important part of this transformation has been strengthening our leadership team and putting the right people in critical roles across the organization. We have added experienced leaders in key areas and are building a more capable, accountable and execution-focused organization to help drive the next phase of One Tredegar.”

“Looking at our third-quarter results – clearly – they were not where we want them to be. We faced broader market pressures, but we also have areas where we need to better execute. At Bonnell, profitability was significantly affected by lower shipments amid continued pressure on building and construction demand, as well as the timing lag of the pass-through of metal costs. High Performance Films experienced lower Surface Protection demand and an unfavorable customer and product mix, along with resin-cost pressures. We are responding with urgency to the factors we can control, with a clear focus on operating reliability, productivity, cost discipline, supply-chain resilience and cash generation.”

“As we finish 2026 and prepare for 2027, the next phase of One Tredegar is about turning organizational change into measurable results. In addition to simplifying our organization and driving accountability, we are positioning both of our businesses to capitalize on more strategic applications and larger customer opportunities focusing capital on areas where we believe we can earn attractive returns and build durable competitive positions. That includes improving Bonnell’s operations performance, driving costs down, growing TSLOTS^TM and developing higher-value applications in Films. We remain on track to begin realizing benefits from One Tredegar in the first quarter of 2027, and our focus now is execution: improving profitability, generating cash and investing behind the opportunities that can create long-term shareholder value.”

Third Quarter 2026 Results vs. Third Quarter 2025 Results

Net sales (sales less freight) in the third quarter of 2026 increased 9.1% versus the third quarter of 2025 primarily due to the pass-through of higher metal costs, partially offset by lower volume. Sales volume in the third quarter of 2026 decreased 11.6% versus the third quarter of 2025 and decreased 4.7% versus the second quarter of 2026. The Architecture Billings Index (ABI), a key leading indicator for nonresidential building and construction volume, has demonstrated a decline in billings (i.e., an index below 50) during 2026, including a recent sharp decrease in September of 2026.

Nonresidential building and construction volume, which represented approximately 51% of total volume, decreased 14% driven by higher pricing, including significantly higher metal costs, and ongoing economic uncertainty. Within the specialty market, consumer durables volume decreased 22% due to cautionary consumer spending on discretionary purchases. Automotive and transportation volume declined 17%, reflecting continued economic uncertainty, higher input costs and trade related pressures affecting manufacturers, compared to the prior-year period, which benefited from customer orders placed in advance of higher tariffs. Partially offsetting the declines, within the specialty market, TSLOTS^TM shipments increased 48%, supported by growing demand for modular aluminum framing systems.

Net new orders in the third quarter of 2026 increased slightly to an average of 2.8 million pounds per week versus an average of 2.6 million pounds per week in the third quarter of 2025, supported by increased activity in TSLOTS^TM for modular aluminum framing systems. Open orders at the end of the third quarter of 2026 were 24 million pounds versus 19 million pounds at the end of the third quarter of 2025 and 23 million pounds at the end of the second quarter of 2026. This level of open orders falls within the normalized level that is typically associated with stable demand patterns and healthy market dynamics.

EBITDA from ongoing operations in the third quarter of 2026 decreased $14.3 million versus the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to:

• A $13.1 million decrease in contribution margin (net sales less variable costs) associated with:
  • Lower volume ($4.4 million), higher labor rates ($2.1 million), unfavorable labor productivity primarily due to a more labor intensive production mix ($0.4 million), higher maintenance associated with down equipment ($1.6 million) and higher freight expense ($0.4 million), partially offset by favorable pricing and mix ($2.4 million) and favorable manufacturing costs primarily associated with casting capabilities due to scrap spreads, reflecting a wider cost differential between primary aluminum and recycled scrap input, and higher scrap utilization ($0.8 million favorable in the third quarter of 2026 versus $0.5 million favorable in the third quarter of 2025).
  • The timing of the flow-through under the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method of aluminum raw materials costs, which were previously acquired in a dynamic pricing environment, causing a temporary mismatch in the change in the cost of raw materials included in variable costs and the pass through to customers included in sales, resulted in a charge of $2.8 million in the third quarter of 2026 versus a benefit of $4.3 million in the third quarter of 2025.
• Higher fixed costs primarily associated with wage and benefits increases ($0.8 million).

First Nine Months of 2026 Results vs. First Nine Months of 2025 Results

Net sales in the first nine months of 2026 increased 17.2% versus the first nine months of 2025 primarily due to the pass-through of higher metal costs, partially offset by lower sales volume. Sales volume in the first nine months of 2026 decreased 8.3% versus the first nine months of 2025.

EBITDA from ongoing operations in the first nine months of 2026 decreased $6.5 million in comparison to the first nine months of 2025 primarily due to:

• A $5.8 million decrease in contribution margin associated with:
  • Lower volume ($8.4 million), higher labor rates ($5.8 million), unfavorable labor productivity primarily due to a more labor intensive production mix ($1.0 million), higher maintenance and supply expense, primarily associated with downed equipment and tariff impacts ($2.8 million), higher die expense, including tariff impact ($1.4 million) and higher freight ($1.6 million), partially offset by favorable mix ($7.9 million) and favorable manufacturing costs primarily associated with casting capabilities due to scrap spreads and higher scrap utilization ($7.8 million favorable in the first nine months of 2026 versus $0.3 million unfavorable in the first nine months of 2025).
  • The timing of the flow-through under the FIFO method of aluminum raw material costs, which were previously acquired in a dynamic pricing environment and passed through to customers, resulted in a benefit of $5.0 million in the first nine months of 2026 versus a benefit of $5.4 million in the first nine months of 2025.
• Higher fixed costs primarily associated with wage and benefits-related expense increases ($2.0 million).
• Higher selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses of $0.8 million primarily associated with higher incentive compensation, partially offset by lower routine environmental compliance expense.
• Lower other expense for lower employee-related medical costs associated with medical claims ($2.1 million).

Market conditions remain impacted by U.S. trade policy. Changes to the tariff structure announced in April 2026, which include measures intended to close the loophole that allowed undervalued aluminum extrusions to enter the U.S., appear to be contributing to a more balanced competitive environment.

Tariffs and duties continue to be passed through to customers under the Company’s metal‑cost adjustment mechanism. The Company implemented additional price increases in the first quarter of 2026 and the third quarter of 2025 to offset tariff‑related costs not covered by that mechanism.

Conflict-driven disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz beginning in March 2026 have constrained shipments and raised costs, contributing to historically low U.S. inventory levels of aluminum. In response to ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and resulting contraction of the global aluminum market, we have proactively diversified Bonnell Aluminum’s supply chain portfolio to support long-term stability. Through the remainder of 2026, we have successfully secured nearly all of Bonnell Aluminum’s anticipated aluminum supply requirements and are proactively reviewing Bonnell Aluminum’s 2027 supply needs and sources to minimize exposure to the Middle East. Simultaneously, we are optimizing billet casting operations at our Carthage, TN and Newnan, GA facilities to overcome localized production constraints. These strategic shifts in our supply chain and internal capabilities are intended to strengthen our operational resilience, positioning Bonnell Aluminum to be a provider of innovative, custom-engineered aluminum solutions.

Projected Capital Expenditures and Depreciation & Amortization

Capital expenditures for Bonnell Aluminum are projected to be $17 million in 2026, including $4 million for productivity projects and $13 million for capital expenditures required to support continuity of operations. Depreciation expense is projected to be $15 million in 2026. Amortization expense is projected to be $2 million in 2026.

Third Quarter 2026 Results vs. Third Quarter 2025 Results

Net sales in the third quarter of 2026 decreased 8.1% versus the third quarter of 2025 due to a decrease in sales volume and unfavorable mix, partially offset by favorable pricing for surface protection films. Surface Protection sales volume decreased 18.6% in the third quarter of 2026 versus the third quarter of 2025 primarily due to weakened consumer electronics display market demand and inventory corrections. Volume for advanced packaging films, which are predominantly manufactured and sold in the U.S. and used in consumer staple items, decreased 6.8% in the third quarter of 2026 versus the third quarter of 2025.

EBITDA from ongoing operations in the third quarter of 2026 decreased $2.6 million versus the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to:

• A decrease in contribution margin of $2.6 million resulting from:
  • A $3.3 million decrease from Surface Protection primarily due to unfavorable volume and mix ($3.4 million) and the pass-through lag associated with higher resin costs (a charge of $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2026 versus a charge of $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2025), partially offset by cost improvements ($0.7 million).
  • A $0.7 million increase from advanced packaging films primarily due to favorable mix ($0.3 million), cost improvements ($0.2 million) and the pass-through lag associated with higher resin costs (a benefit of $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2026 versus no charge or benefit in the third quarter of 2025).
• Higher fixed costs associated with wages and benefits increases ($0.2 million).
• Lower SG&A expense associated with lower employee-related incentive compensation ($0.4 million).
• A foreign currency transaction loss of $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2026 and in the third quarter of 2025.

The memory chip market pressures may continue to affect customer’s production levels and High Performance Films’ product mix through the remainder of 2026. Despite significant quarterly volatility since the first quarter of 2022, EBITDA from ongoing operations has normalized to approximately $5.0 million per quarter.

First Nine Months of 2026 Results vs. First Nine Months of 2025 Results

Net sales in the first nine months of 2026 decreased 6.7% compared to the first nine months of 2025 primarily due to lower volume and unfavorable mix, partially offset by favorable pricing in surface protection films. Surface Protection sales volume decreased 7.1% in the first nine months of 2026 versus the first nine months of 2025. Sales volume for surface protection films declined in the first nine months of 2026 versus the first nine months of 2025 as expected due to a significant customer’s inventory correction and scheduled maintenance activity for another customer in the first nine months of 2026. Volume for advanced packaging films decreased 6.9% in the first nine months of 2026 versus the first nine months of 2025 associated with lower margin product. The top four customers comprised 85% of the net sales for High Performance Films for the first nine months of 2026 and first nine months of 2025.

EBITDA from ongoing operations in the first nine months of 2026 decreased $6.0 million versus the first nine months of 2025, primarily due to:

• A decrease in contribution margin of $5.8 million resulting from:
  • A $6.0 million decrease from Surface Protection associated with lower volume and unfavorable pricing and mix ($7.1 million) and the pass-through lag associated with higher resin costs (a charge of $1.1 million in the first nine months of 2026 versus a charge of $0.2 million in the first nine months of 2025), partially offset by favorable productivity and cost improvements ($1.9 million).
  • A $0.3 million increase from advanced packaging films primarily due to higher volume and favorable mix ($1.1 million), partially offset by unfavorable pricing ($0.3 million), unfavorable productivity, net of cost improvements ($0.2 million) and the pass-through lag associated with higher resin costs (a charge of $0.5 million in the first nine months of 2026 versus a charge of $0.1 million in the first nine months of 2025).
• Higher fixed costs primarily associated with wages and benefits increases ($0.6 million).
• Lower SG&A expense associated with lower employee-related incentive compensation ($1.0 million).
• A foreign currency transaction loss of $0.8 million in the first nine months of 2026 versus a loss of $0.1 million in the first nine months of 2025.

Although the conflict-driven disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz beginning in March 2026 have caused an increase to resin costs, High Performance Films maintains pass-through mechanisms with customers and has not experienced supply issues to date.

Projected Capital Expenditures and Depreciation & Amortization

Capital expenditures for High Performance Films are projected to be $2 million in 2026, for productivity projects and capital expenditures required to support continuity of current operations. Depreciation expense is projected to be $4 million in 2026. There is no amortization expense for High Performance Films.

Corporate Expenses, Interest, Taxes and Other

Corporate expenses, net in the first nine months of 2026 decreased $6.8 million compared to the first nine months of 2025 due to lower professional fees associated with business development activities ($5.8 million), lower stock based compensation ($1.2 million) and lower employee-related incentive compensation ($1.6 million), partially offset by a gain in 2025 on the sale of corporate-owned land ($1.5 million). The Company does not expect significant expenses from business development activities in 2026.

Interest expense was $1.4 million in the first nine months of 2026 in comparison to $3.6 million in the first nine months of 2025. The decrease was primarily due to the write-off of deferred financing fees related to the amendment to our credit agreement (“ABL Facility”) of $0.8 million during the first nine months of 2025, lower weighted average total debt outstanding and lower interest rates during the first nine months of 2026.

The effective tax rate from continuing operations in the first nine months of 2026 was 20.2% compared to 27.1% in the first nine months of 2025. The effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2026 varied from the statutory rate of 21% due to research and development tax credits while the effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2025 varied from the statutory rate due to higher nondeductible discrete items as a percentage of pre-tax income.

Debt and Financial Leverage

Total debt was $49.0 million at September 30, 2026 and $35.1 million at December 31, 2025. Cash and cash equivalents were $16.3 million at September 30, 2026 and $6.7 million at December 31, 2025. Net debt (total debt in excess of cash and cash equivalents) was $32.7 million at September 30, 2026 and $28.4 million at December 31, 2025.

Total debt increased $13.9 million and net debt increased $4.3 million in the first nine months of 2026 versus the end of 2025 due to increased working capital needs, reflecting significantly higher metal and higher resin costs, and higher capital expenditures, partially offset by cash generation from segment EBITDA from ongoing operations of $44.2 million.

STATEMENT REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Tredegar reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. However, Tredegar’s management also reviews certain financial measures that are not required by, or calculated in accordance with, GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures, including those discussed below, exclude or include amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flow of the Company and may not be calculated the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as supplemental in nature and not considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company has provided a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP in the accompanying tables.

Net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share from ongoing operations are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the effects of gains or losses associated with plant shutdowns, asset impairments and restructurings, gains or losses from the sale of assets, goodwill impairment charges, discontinued operations, net periodic benefit cost for the frozen defined benefit pension plan prior to termination and other items (which includes gains and losses for an investment accounted for under the fair value method) which have been presented separately and removed from net income (loss) from continuing operations and diluted earnings (loss) per share as reported under GAAP. Net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share from ongoing operations are key financial and analytical measures used by management to analyze the operating performance of Tredegar’s ongoing operations. They are not intended to represent the stand-alone results for Tredegar’s ongoing operations under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) from continuing operations or earnings (loss) per share as defined by GAAP. They exclude items that management believes do not relate to Tredegar’s ongoing operations.

EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) from ongoing operations is a non-GAAP financial measure included in the accompanying tables and the reconciliation of segment financial information to consolidated results for the Company in the net sales and EBITDA from ongoing operations by segment statements. It is not intended to represent the stand-alone results for Tredegar’s ongoing operations under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as defined by GAAP. The Company believes that EBIT is a widely understood and used metric that is meaningful to certain investors and that including this financial metric in the reconciliation of, EBITDA from ongoing operations, which is the key segment profitability metric used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to assess segment financial performance, provides useful information to those investors that primarily use EBIT to analyze the Company’s core operations.

Consolidated EBITDA from ongoing operations is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the effects of gains or losses associated with plant shutdowns, asset impairments and restructurings, gains or losses from the sale of assets, goodwill impairment charges, discontinued operations, net periodic benefit cost for the frozen defined benefit pension plan and other items (which includes gains and losses for an investment accounted for under the fair value method). Consolidated EBITDA from ongoing operations also excludes depreciation & amortization, stock option-based compensation costs, interest and income taxes. Consolidated EBITDA is a key financial and analytical measure used by management to gauge the operating performance of Tredegar’s ongoing operations. It is not intended to represent the stand-alone results for Tredegar’s ongoing operations under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or earnings (loss) per share as defined by GAAP. It excludes items that management believes do not relate to Tredegar’s ongoing operations.

Net debt, which is defined as total debt in excess of cash and cash equivalents, is a non-GAAP financial measure, that is not intended to represent total debt as defined by GAAP. Net debt is used by management in evaluating the Company’s financial leverage and equity valuation, and management believes that investors also may find net debt to be helpful for the same purposes.
