Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2025 revenue ÷ FY2024 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

### Peer percentile fingerprint

| Ratio | MTW | Peer median | Percentile | N |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Net margin | 0.3% | 2.8% | 14 | 8 |
| Revenue growth | 2.9% | 6.2% | 29 | 8 |
| ROE | 1.0% | 6.1% | 14 | 8 |
| ROA | 0.4% | 2.0% | 14 | 8 |
| Liabilities / equity | 1.62 | 1.54 | 57 | 8 |

Percentile = share of the N covered peers reporting that ratio whose value is lower (ties counted half); computed among grepcent-covered companies in SIC industry 3531 Construction Machinery & Equip, not the whole market. A higher percentile means a higher value of the ratio, not a better company. Ratios with fewer than 8 reporting peers are omitted. Latest reported values per company; fiscal periods may differ. Descriptive arithmetic - not a score, rating, or ranking.

Current Events

During the second quarter of 2026, the Company received $26.2 million of refunds from U.S. Customs and Border Protection related to previously paid International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) tariffs. As a result of the refunds received, the Company recognized a net benefit of $11.8 million during the quarter as a reduction of cost of sales within the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The amount recognized includes the gross benefit from the IEEPA tariff refund, net of refunds expected to be provided to customers, adjustments to previously recognized tariff costs, and interest income recorded to other income (expense) – net. Additionally, there is $4.3 million of IEEPA refund amounts capitalized into inventory that is expected to be recognized in earnings as the associated inventory is sold. The Company continues to monitor ongoing legal and regulatory developments related to tariffs.

Orders and Backlog

Orders and backlog are not measures defined by GAAP and our methodology for determining orders and backlog may vary from the methodology used by other companies. Management uses orders and backlog for capacity and resource planning. The Company believes this information is useful to investors to provide an indication of future revenues. Backlog represents the dollar value of orders which are expected to be recognized in net sales in the future. Orders are included in backlog when an executed binding contract with a price that has a floor has been received but has not been recognized in net sales.

Orders for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased 56.1% to $708.7 million from $453.9 million for the same period in 2025. The increase in orders was primarily attributable to higher demand in all of the Company’s three segments. Orders were favorably impacted by $6.5 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Orders for the six months ended June 30, 2026 increased 27.3% to $1,354.4 million from $1,064.2 million for the same period in 2025. The increase in orders was primarily attributable to higher demand in all of the Company’s three segments. Orders were favorably impacted by $32.2 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

As of June 30, 2026, total backlog was $1,050.1 million, an increase of 32.3% from the December 31, 2025 backlog of $793.5 million, and an increase of 44.0% from the June 30, 2025 backlog of $729.3 million. Backlog was unfavorably impacted by $44.6 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates since December 31, 2025 and was unfavorably impacted by $9.8 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates since June 30, 2025.

Orders are included in backlog when an executed binding contract with a price that has a floor has been received but has not been recognized in net sales.

Orders for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased 22.7% to $2,359.0 million from $1,922.8 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in orders was primarily due to higher demand in the Americas and EURAF segments. This was partially offset by lower demand in the MEAP segment. Orders were favorably impacted by $34.3 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

The Company’s backlog as of December 31, 2025 was $793.5 million, a 22.0% increase from the December 31, 2024 backlog of $650.2 million. The increase in backlog from December 31, 2024 was primarily attributable to the higher orders as discussed above. Backlog was favorably impacted by $32.4 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

realization and favorable product mix in the Americas segment. This was partially offset by lower new crane shipments in the Americas segment and European mobiles business. Net sales were favorably impacted by $35.3 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased 7.9% to $404.7 million compared to $375.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to the higher net sales and favorable product mix. This was partially offset by lower absorbed costs due to lower manufacturing volume in the Americas segment and $6.1 million of net tariff costs.

Engineering, Selling, and Administrative Expenses

Engineering, selling, and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased 8.6% to $342.9 million compared to $315.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase is primarily due to higher costs for the triennial bauma trade show and $11.6 million of higher employee-related costs when compared to the prior year. This was partially offset by $8.9 million of higher costs associated with a legal matter with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“U.S. EPA”) in the prior year. Engineering, selling, and administrative expenses were unfavorably impacted by $5.6 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased 1.6% to $37.7 million compared to $38.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest rates on borrowings under the Company's ABL Revolving Credit Facility, partially offset by higher outstanding borrowings on the Company's other credit facilities. See further detail at Note 11, “Debt,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other Expense – Net

Other expense – net for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $2.2 million and was primarily composed of $0.8 million of net foreign currency transaction losses and $1.9 million of pension benefit and postretirement health costs, partially offset by $0.8 million of interest income net of bank fees.

Other expense - net for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $0.4 million and was primarily composed of $2.9 million of pension benefit and postretirement health costs and $1.1 million of non-cash losses associated with the refinancing of the Company’s former senior secured second lien notes. This was partially offset by $2.6 million of net foreign currency transaction gains and $0.7 million of interest income.

Provision (benefit) for Income Taxes

During the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $5.2 million and a benefit for income taxes of $44.1 million, respectively.

The 2025 effective tax rate was favorably impacted by a $5.4 million net reduction of the valuation allowance. This benefit was offset by domestic and foreign non-deductible expenses.

The 2024 effective tax rate was favorably impacted by a $57.5 million net reduction of the valuation allowance. The rate was unfavorably impacted by $5.6 million of additional unrecognized tax benefit reserves recorded during the year and non-deductible expenses related to a legal matter.

Refer to Note 13, “Income Taxes,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
