PHINIA Inc. (NYSE: PHIN), a leader in premium fuel systems, electrical systems, and aftermarket solutions, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Second Quarter Highlights:

• On June 10, 2025, PHINIA entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Swedish Electromagnet Invest AB (SEM), a prominent provider of advanced natural gas, hydrogen and other alternative fuel ignition systems, injector stators and linear position sensors for approximately $47 million. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025.
• Net sales of $890 million, an increase of 2.5% compared with Q2 2024.
  • Excluding the impacts of foreign currency and contract manufacturing agreements that ended in 2024, an increase of $18 million and decrease of $5 million, respectively, net sales increased $9 million or 1.0%, driven by customer pricing, primarily related to tariff recoveries.
• Net earnings of $46 million and net margin of 5.2%, representing a year-over-year increase of $32 million and 360 bps, respectively.
• Adjusted EBITDA of $126 million with adjusted EBITDA margin of 14.2%, representing a year-over-year increase of $9 million and 60 bps, respectively, primarily driven by favorable foreign exchange impacts, supplier savings and volume and mix, partially offset by increased employee costs and continued tariff impacts as recovery efforts from customers continue.
• Net earnings per diluted share of $1.14.
  • Adjusted net earnings per diluted share of $1.27 (excluding $0.13 per diluted share related to non-operating items detailed in the non-GAAP appendix below), reflecting the operational increases detailed above and a reduction in share count.
• Returned $50 million to shareholders through $40 million of share repurchases and $10 million in dividends.

Key Wins in Strategic Growth Markets:

New business wins remained strong across all end markets. A few examples of new business awards in Q2 are:

• New business award for Gas Direct Injection (GDi) Fuel Rail Assembly and pump for a leading domestic Chinese OEM, to be applied on new hybrid engine platform for multiple vehicle models within China and for the Brazilian market flex-fuel (E100) application.
• First GDi pump business with a top three North America OEM.
• Aftermarket business win for new diesel fuel injection service with major off-road equipment supplier.
• Continued to increase share of wallet with customers leveraging market-leading range coverage in braking and suspension components.
• Business expansion with a major U.S. distributor, which is a consolidator in the warehouse distribution space.

Brady Ericson, President and Chief Executive Officer of PHINIA commented: “Our team continues to navigate a dynamic landscape shaped by economic uncertainties, tariff impacts, and evolving customer demands. As demonstrated by our second-quarter results, we remain focused on cost management and supply chain resilience. Delivering on our commitment to strategic growth, we announced a definitive agreement to acquire SEM, which will expand our footprint in the commercial vehicle, industrial, and aftermarket sectors and supports our strategy of exploring alternative, zero carbon and lower carbon fuels.”

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow:

The Company ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $347 million and $499 million of available capacity under its Revolving Credit Facility. Total debt at quarter end was $990 million.

Net cash generated by operating activities was $57 million, representing a year-over-year decrease of $52 million. Adjusted free cash flow was $20 million compared to $108 million in Q2 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by increased working capital demands as the Company navigates fluctuating volumes and other shifting industry conditions and the timing of capital expenditures.

2025 Full Year Guidance:

The Company refined its expected 2025 net sales to $3.33 billion to $3.43 billion. Excluding the impacts of foreign exchange and contract manufacturing arrangements in 2024, this implies a year-over-year sales range of 3% decline to breakeven in 2025. The Company’s net earnings and adjusted EBITDA are projected to be $140 million to $170 million and $455 million to $485 million, respectively, with net earnings margin of 4.2% to 5.0% and adjusted EBITDA margin of 13.7% to 14.1%. The Company expects to generate $160 million to $200 million in adjusted free cash flow. Adjusted tax rate is expected to be in the range of 36% to 40%.

The Company will host a conference call to review second quarter 2025 results and take questions from the investment community at 8:30 a.m. ET today. This call will be webcast at PHINIA Q2 2025 Earnings Call. Additional presentation materials will be available at Investors.phinia.com.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains information about PHINIA’s financial results that is not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Such non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures below. The reconciliations include all information reasonably available to the Company at the date of this press release and the adjustments that management can reasonably predict.

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management, investors, and banking institutions in their analysis of the Company's business and operating performance. Management also uses this information for operational planning and decision-making purposes.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not and should not be considered a substitute for any GAAP measure. Additionally, because not all companies use identical calculations, the non-GAAP financial measures as presented by PHINIA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

A reconciliation of each of projected Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, which are forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is not provided because the Company is unable to provide such reconciliation without unreasonable effort. The inability to provide each reconciliation is due to the unpredictability of the amounts and timing of events affecting the items we exclude from the non-GAAP measure.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

The Company defines adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) as net earnings less interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude the impact of restructuring expense, transaction-related (benefits) costs, other postretirement income and expense, equity in affiliates' earnings, net of tax, impairment charges, other net expenses, and other gains and losses not reflective of our ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by adjusted sales. Management utilizes adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin in its financial decision-making process and to evaluate performance of the Company's consolidated results. Management also believes adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are useful to investors in assessing the Company’s ongoing consolidated financial performance, as they provide improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items that management believes are not indicative of the Company’s core operating performance.

Adjusted Sales

The Company defines adjusted sales as net sales adjusted to exclude certain agreements with our former parent that were entered into in connection with the spin-off. Management believes that adjusted sales is useful to investors, as it provides improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain temporary agreements with our former parent that are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations.

Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings Per Diluted Share

The Company defines adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per diluted share as net earnings and net earnings per share, each adjusted to exclude: (i) the tax-effected impact of restructuring expense, transaction-related (benefits) costs, impairment charges and other gains, losses and tax effects and adjustments not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations; and (ii) acquisition-related intangibles amortization expense because it pertains to non-cash expenses that the Company does not use to evaluate core operating performance. Management believes that adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per diluted share are useful to investors in assessing the Company’s ongoing financial performance, as they provide improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items that management believes are not indicative of the Company’s core operating performance.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow

The Company defines adjusted free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities after adding back adjustments related to the ongoing effects of separation-related transactions, less capital expenditures, including tooling outlays. Management believes that adjusted free cash flow is useful to investors in assessing the Company's ability to service and repay its debt and return capital to shareholders. Further, management uses this non-GAAP measure for planning and forecasting purposes.
