Manitex International Provides Business Update, Introduces Full-year 2023 Guidance

Manitex International, Inc. (Nasdaq: MNTX) ("Manitex" or the "Company"), a leading international provider of truck cranes, specialized industrial equipment, and construction equipment rental solutions to infrastructure and construction markets, today introduced financial guidance for the fiscal full-year 2023.

“The strategic actions introduced earlier this year have positioned us to build a more competitive, efficient platform for profitable growth,” stated Michael Coffey, CEO of Manitex. “Demand trends have remained favorable in our key end markets, and we have steadily grown market share across our product lines, allowing us to generate historically high backlogs through the year. Our Elevating Excellence initiative is delivering increased production velocity and margin improvement, with results trending ahead of our initial first-year targets. Given an improved outlook for our business, we’ve introduced financial guidance for the fiscal full-year 2023, which includes expectations for more than 30% year-over-year growth in Adjusted EBITDA and continued margin expansion, at the midpoint of the guided range.”
