PHINIA Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results, Improves Full Year Outlook

Brady Ericson, President and Chief Executive Officer of PHINIA

“Our third quarter results were consistent with our expectations and reflect stable end market demand, continued aftermarket momentum, and strong financial discipline. We generated another quarter of profitable growth, with Adjusted EBITDA increasing $2 million, or 20 bps, despite higher R&D spending and investments in customer relationships, demonstrating the resilience of our business and consistent execution. Based on our solid third quarter results and the continued business momentum, we are updating our fiscal 2026 financial guidance. We made further progress on our key strategic priorities during the quarter, highlighted by strong new award activity in targeted growth markets and consistent execution on our disciplined capital allocation strategy. Our business momentum continued into the third quarter, as we delivered strong new award activity, with awards focused on emerging growth industries. Importantly, we returned $76 million of capital to shareholders during the quarter, which represents 104% of adjusted free cash flow, and we remain committed to our balanced capital allocation strategy, which is focused on investments for growth, strategic acquisitions, and capital returns. We are focused on building a diversified growth business, driven by strong product leadership, expansion into growth markets, product innovation, and disciplined financial execution. Our strong new business momentum and consistent financial results are evidence our strategy is working. We remain committed to our strategic framework and confident in our ability to execute on our key priorities, all with a focus on delivering value for our shareholders.”
