NORWALK, Conn., July 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Terex Corporation (NYSE: TEX), a global leader in specialized equipment, serving essential sectors such as emergency services, waste and recycling, utilities, and construction, today announced its results for the second quarter 2026.

CEO Commentary

"Terex delivered a strong second quarter, with revenue growth in all segments, improved profitability, and positive booking trends that reflect healthy demand across much of the portfolio," said Simon Meester, Terex President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our second quarter performance reflects strength in key businesses, strong execution by our teams, and increasing operational momentum across the company. While conditions remain mixed in certain end markets, demand continues to be favorable across most of our significantly improved portfolio, and we are making meaningful progress on our integration plans as we realize the benefits of expected synergies. With solid backlog visibility, improving demand indicators, and an operational plan that supports stronger second-half performance, we are raising our full-year outlook."

CFO Commentary

"Second quarter results reflected solid execution across the portfolio, including strong year-over-year incremental margin conversion in the Materials Processing and Specialty Vehicles segments, and free cash flow of $101 million, demonstrating the lower capital intensity of our new portfolio. Adjusted EPS for the quarter of $1.37 included approximately $8 million of IEEPA tariff refunds received, net of a discrete one-time unfavorable customs-related accrual," said Jennifer Kong-Picarello, Terex Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "We are encouraged by the team's ability to navigate a dynamic backdrop, and deliver results that exceeded expectations in the first half of the year. As a result, today we are increasing our full-year outlook. At the midpoint, our outlook implies a meaningful step up in second-half earnings and profitability, supported by a healthy backlog and operational momentum."

2026 Outlook

Based on second quarter performance, backlog visibility, and synergy realization, the company is raising  its full year outlook.  It expects 2026 sales to grow approximately 7% on a pro forma¹⁴ basis to $7.9 to $8.2 billion, and Adjusted¹ EBITDA to grow by $124 million or 14.5% year over year on a pro forma¹⁴ basis to between $960 million and $1 billion, or 12.2% Adjusted¹ EBITDA margin at the mid-point. The Adjusted¹ EPS² outlook of $4.70 - $5.10 includes the following assumptions/commentary:

LSD = revenue up low single-digits

LDD = revenue up low double-digits

HSD = revenue up high single-digits

Non-GAAP Measures and Other Items

Results of operations reflect continuing operations. All per share amounts are on a fully diluted basis.  A comprehensive review of the quarterly financial performance is contained in the presentation that will accompany the Company's earnings conference call.

In this press release, Terex refers to various GAAP (U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) and non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures being disclosed by other companies. Management believes that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with additional analytical tools which are useful in evaluating our operating results and the ongoing performance of our underlying businesses because they (i) provide meaningful supplemental information regarding financial performance by excluding impact of one-time items and other items affecting comparability between periods, (ii) permit investors to view performance using the same tools that management uses to budget, make operating and strategic decisions, and evaluate our core operating performance across periods, and (iii) otherwise provide supplemental information that may be useful to investors in evaluating our financial results. We do not, nor do we suggest that investors, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The Glossary at the end of this press release contains further details about this subject.

The Company has scheduled a conference call to review the financial results on Thursday, July 30, 2026 beginning at 8:30 a.m. ET.  Simon A.

Non-GAAP Measures Definitions

In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding the Company's results, Terex refers to various GAAP (U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) and non-GAAP financial measures which management believes provides useful information to investors. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures being disclosed by other companies. In addition, the Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures. Terex believes that this non-GAAP information is useful to understanding its operating results and the ongoing performance of its underlying businesses. Management of Terex uses both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to establish internal budgets and targets and to evaluate the Company's financial performance against such budgets and targets.

The amounts described below are unaudited, are reported in millions of U.S. dollars (except share data and percentages), and are as of or for the period ended June 30, 2026, unless otherwise indicated.

2026 Outlook

The Company's 2026 outlook for Adjusted EBITDA, earnings per share, and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures because they exclude the impact of potential future acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring, tariffs, trade policies and other unusual items. The Company is not able to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts because the Company is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the exact timing and impact of such items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company's full-year 2026 GAAP financial results. This forward looking information provides guidance to investors about the Company's 2026 Outlook excluding unusual items that the Company does not believe is reflective of its ongoing operations.

Free Cash Flow
The Company calculates a non-GAAP measure of free cash flow that is defined as Net cash provided by  operating activities less Capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sale of capital assets.  The Company believes this measure provides management and investors further useful information on cash generation in our primary operations.  The following table reconciles Net cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow (in millions):

EBITDA
EBITDA is defined as earnings, before interest, other non-operating income (loss), income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.  The Company calculates this by subtracting the following items from Net income (loss): (Gain) loss on disposition of discontinued operations- net of tax; and (Income) loss from discontinued operations – net of tax.  Then adds the Provision for (benefit from) income taxes; Interest & Other (Income) Expense; the Depreciation and Amortization amounts reported in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows less amortization of debt issuance costs that are recorded in Interest expense. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA plus certain SG&A and other income/expenses.

Terex believes that disclosure of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA will be helpful to those reviewing its performance, as EBITDA provides information on Terex's ability to meet debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements, and is also an indicator of profitability.
