NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
(Dollars are presented in thousands, except share, per share and per employee data or unless otherwise stated)
NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein include the accounts of Broadwind, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Broadwind Heavy Fabrications, Inc. (“Broadwind Heavy Fabrications”), Brad Foote Gear Works, Inc. (“Brad Foote”) and Broadwind Industrial Solutions, LLC (“Broadwind Industrial Solutions”). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the twelve months ending December 31, 2025, or any other interim period, which may differ materially due to, among other things, the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The December 31, 2024 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. This financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Company Description
Through its subsidiaries, the Company is a precision manufacturer of structures, equipment and components for clean technology and other specialized applications. The Company provides technologically advanced high value products to customers with complex systems and stringent quality standards that operate in energy, mining and infrastructure sectors, primarily in the United States of America (the “U.S.”). The Company’s capabilities include, but are not limited to, the following: heavy fabrications, welding, metal rolling, coatings, gear cutting and shaping, gearbox manufacturing and repair, heat treatment, precision machining, assembly, engineering and packaging solutions. The Company’s most significant presence is within the U.S. wind energy industry, which accounted for
Liquidity
The Company typically meets its short term liquidity needs through cash generated from operations, its available cash balances, the 2022 Credit Facility (as defined below), equipment financing, access to the public and private debt and/or equity markets, and has the option to raise capital from the sale of the Company’s securities under the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3 (as discussed below), and proceeds from any sales of Advanced Manufacturing Production tax credits (“AMP credits”) (discussed in Note 6 “AMP Credits” of these condensed consolidated financial statements).
See Note 9, “Debt and Credit Agreements,” of these condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of the 2022 Credit Facility and the Company’s other debt.
Debt and finance lease obligations at June 30, 2025 totaled $
On September 22, 2023, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 12, 2023 (the “Form S-3”), replacing a prior shelf registration statement which expired on October 12, 2023. The Form S-3 will expire on October 12, 2026. This shelf registration statement, which includes a base prospectus, allows the Company to offer any combination of securities described in the prospectus in one or more offerings. Unless otherwise specified in the prospectus supplement accompanying the base prospectus, the Company would use the net proceeds from the sale of any securities offered pursuant to the shelf registration statement for general corporate purposes.
On September 12, 2022, the Company entered into a Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Roth Capital Partners, LLC and HC Wainwright & Co., LLC (collectively, the “Agents”). Pursuant to the terms of the Sales Agreement, the Company may sell from time to time through the Agents shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $
The Company also utilizes supply chain financing arrangements as a component of its funding for working capital, which accelerates receivable collections and helps to better manage cash flow. Under these agreements, the Company has agreed to sell certain of its accounts receivable balances to banking institutions who have agreed to advance amounts equal to the net accounts receivable balances due, less a discount as set forth in the respective agreements. The balances under these agreements are accounted for as sales of accounts receivable, as they are sold without recourse. Cash proceeds from these agreements are reflected as operating activities included in the change in accounts receivable in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows. Fees incurred in connection with the agreements are recorded as interest expense by the Company.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company sold account receivables totaling $
The Company anticipates that current cash resources, amounts available under the 2022 Credit Facility, sales of shares under the Sales Agreement, cash to be generated from operations and equipment financing, access to the public and private debt and/or equity markets, any potential proceeds from the sale of further Company securities under the Form S-3, and proceeds from sales of AMP credits will be adequate to meet the Company’s liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months.
If assumptions regarding the Company’s production, sales and subsequent collections from certain of the Company’s large customers, the Company’s ability to finalize the terms of the remaining obligations under a supply agreement with a leading global wind turbine manufacturer, as well as receipt of customer deposits and revenues generated from new customer orders, are materially inconsistent with management’s expectations, the Company may in the future encounter cash flow and liquidity issues, which could have a material adverse impact on the Company.
If the Company’s operational performance deteriorates, the Company may be unable to comply with existing financial covenants, and could lose access to the 2022 Credit Facility. This could limit the Company’s operational flexibility, require a delay in making planned investments and/or require us to seek additional equity or debt financing. Any attempt to raise equity through the public markets could have a negative effect on the Company’s stock price, making an equity raise more difficult or more dilutive. Any additional equity financing or equity-linked financing, if available, will be dilutive to stockholders, and additional debt financing, if available, would likely require new financial covenants or impose other operating and financial restrictions on the Company and could be on less favorable terms than the 2022 Credit Facility. While management believes that the Company will continue to have sufficient cash available to operate its businesses and to meet the Company’s financial obligations and debt covenants, there can be no assurances that the Company’s operations will generate sufficient cash, or that credit facilities or equity or equity-linked financings will be available in an amount sufficient to enable the Company to meet these financial obligations.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Management’s Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Significant estimates, among others, include inventory reserves, warranty reserves, impairment of long-lived assets, allowance for credit losses, health insurance reserves, and valuation allowances on deferred taxes. Although these estimates are based upon management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results could differ from these estimates.
NOTE 2 — REVENUES
Revenues are recognized when the promised goods or services are transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by revenue source for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||||||
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 | |||||||||||||
| Heavy Fabrications | $ | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
| Gearing | ||||||||||||||||
| Industrial Solutions | ||||||||||||||||
| Eliminations | ( | ) | ( | ) | ( | ) | ( | ) | ||||||||
| Consolidated | $ | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
Revenue within the Company’s Gearing and Industrial Solutions segments, as well as industrial fabrication product line revenues within the Heavy Fabrications segment, are generally recognized at a point in time, typically when the promised goods or services are physically transferred to its customers in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to the customer. The Company measures revenue based on the consideration specified in the purchase order and revenue is recognized when the performance obligations are satisfied. If applicable, the transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation.
For substantially all wind sales within the Company’s Heavy Fabrications segment as well as certain sales within our Gearing segment, products are sold under terms included in bill and hold sales arrangements that result in different timing for revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue under these arrangements only when there is a substantive reason for the agreement, the ordered goods are identified separately as belonging to the customer and not available to fill other orders, the goods are currently ready for physical transfer to the customer, and the Company does not have the ability to use the product or to direct it to another customer. Assuming these required revenue recognition criteria are met, revenue is recognized upon completion of product manufacture and customer acceptance. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized $
During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized a portion of revenue within the Heavy Fabrications segment over time, as the products had no alternative use to the Company and the Company had an enforceable right to payment, including profit, upon termination of the contracts. Because the projects are labor intensive, the Company uses labor hours as the input measure of progress for the applicable contracts. Within the Heavy Fabrications segment, the Company recognized revenue for contracts that meet over time criteria of $
The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses. Customer deposits, deferred revenue and other receipts are deferred and recognized when the revenue is realized and earned. Cash payments to customers are classified as reductions of revenue in the Company’s statement of operations.
The Company does not disclose the value of the unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.
NOTE 3 — NET INCOME PER SHARE
The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted income per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, as follows:

NOTE 4 — ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
On June 4, 2025, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the “Manitowoc Purchase Agreement”) with Wisconsin Heavy Fabrication, LLC (the “Buyer”) to sell certain assets used in its industrial fabrication operations in Manitowoc, Wisconsin including specified contracts, equipment, machinery and other personal property, and permits for an aggregate purchase price of up to $
Since the sale is probable within a year and the Company has met all other held for sale accounting criteria, the related assets are reflected as held for sale as of June 30, 2025. The transaction does not reflect a strategic shift that will have a major effect on operations and financial results, and therefore, did not qualify for presentation as a discontinued operation. As the transaction is likely to close within one year, the assets are included in the current assets section of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2025. The results of the industrial fabrication operations in Manitowoc are included within the Heavy Fabrications segment. Assets classified as held for sale consist of the Manitowoc property and equipment and have been recognized at the lower of the carrying value and fair value less costs to sell, which was the carrying value. Depreciation of these assets ceased as of June 4, 2025.

On February 8, 2023, the Company executed Amendment No. 1 to Credit Agreement and Limited Waiver which waived the Company’s fourth quarter minimum EBITDA (as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement) requirement for the period ended December 31, 2023, amended the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement) requirements for the twelve-month period ending January 31, 2024 through and including June 30, 2024 and each twelve-month period thereafter, and amended the minimum EBITDA requirements applicable to the twelve-month periods ending March 31, 2023, June 30, 2023, September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2023.

The 2022 Credit Agreement, as amended, contains customary covenants limiting the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, incur liens, make investments, incur indebtedness, merge or consolidate with others or dispose of assets, change the nature of its business, and enter into transactions with affiliates. The initial term of the revolving credit facility matures August 4, 2027. The term loan also matures on August 4, 2027, with monthly payments based on an

NOTE 10 — LEASES
The Company leases certain facilities and equipment. The leases are accounted for under Accounting Standard Update 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”), and the Company elected to apply each available practical expedient. The discount rates used for the leases are based on an interest rate yield curve developed for the leases in the Company’s lease portfolio.
The Company has elected to apply the short-term lease exception to all leases of one year or less. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had additional operating leases that resulted in right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations in the amount of $
Some of the Company’s facility leases include options to renew. The exercise of the renewal options is typically at the Company’s discretion. The Company regularly evaluates the renewal options and includes them in the lease term when the Company is reasonably certain to exercise them.
As part of the Manitowoc Purchase Agreement described in Note 4 “Assets Held for Sale”, the Company entered into a lease termination agreement with the landlord of the Manitowoc facility and paid a termination fee of $
As part of the Manitowoc Purchase Agreement, the Buyer entered into a new lease agreement with the landlord for the Manitowoc facility and the Company entered into a sublease with the Buyer. The term of the sublease commenced on June 4, 2025, and expires on the earlier of (i) midnight on August 31, 2025, (ii) the date that the Company vacates the facility, or (iii) the termination of the Manitowoc Purchase Agreement. As the term of the sublease is less than one year, the Company has elected to not record the related operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2025 and has elected to expense such costs.
In the event that the Buyer’s lease is terminated prior to the closing of the sale, the Company’s leases will be automatically reinstated as of the termination date and the sublease will be terminated as of the termination date. The Company believes that there is low likelihood for the Buyer’s lease to be terminated prior to the closing of the sale.
Quantitative information regarding the Company’s leases is as follows:

NOTE 11 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and customer deposits, approximate their respective fair values due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments. Based upon interest rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms, the carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt is approximately equal to its fair value.
The Company is required to provide disclosure and categorize assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the assumptions (i.e., inputs) used in the valuation. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value while Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input significant to the fair value measurement. Financial instruments are assessed quarterly to determine the appropriate classification within the fair value hierarchy. Transfers between fair value classifications are made based upon the nature and type of the observable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is defined as follows:
Level 1 — Valuations are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Valuations are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices in markets that are not active for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 — Valuations are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
NOTE 12 — INCOME TAXES
Effective tax rates differ from federal statutory income tax rates primarily due to changes in the Company’s valuation allowance, permanent differences and provisions for state and local income taxes. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has a full valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $
The Company files income tax returns in U.S. federal and state jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2025, open tax years in federal and some state jurisdictions date back to 1996 due to the taxing authorities’ ability to adjust operating loss carryforwards. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had federal and unapportioned state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of $
Since the Company has no unrecognized tax benefits, they will not have an impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of the expiration of the applicable statues of limitations within the next twelve months. In addition, Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “IRC”), generally imposes an annual limitation on the amount of NOL carryforwards and associated built-in losses that may be used to offset taxable income when a corporation has undergone certain changes in stock ownership. The Company’s ability to utilize NOL carryforwards and built-in losses may be limited, under Section 382 of the IRC or otherwise, by the Company’s issuance of common stock or by other changes in stock ownership. Upon completion of the Company’s analysis of Section 382 of the IRC in 2010, the Company determined that aggregate changes in stock ownership triggered an annual limitation on NOL carryforwards and built-in losses available for utilization, thereby currently limiting annual NOL usage to $
In February 2013, the Company adopted a Stockholder Rights Plan, which was approved by the Company’s stockholders and extended in 2016, 2019, 2022, and 2025 for additional three-year periods (as amended, the “Rights Plan”), designed to preserve the Company’s substantial tax assets associated with NOL carryforwards under Section 382 of the IRC.

NOTE 14 — LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND OTHER MATTERS
Legal Proceedings
The Company is party to a variety of legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of its business. On an ongoing basis, the Company is often the subject of, or party to, various legal claims by other parties against the Company, by the Company against other parties, or involving the Company, which arise in the normal course of its business. While the results of these legal proceedings or claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of these proceedings or claims will not have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. Due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. It is possible that if one or more of such matters were decided against the Company, the effects could be materially adverse to the Company, including to its results of operations in the period in which the Company would be required to record or adjust the related liability and to the Company’s financial condition and cash flows in the periods the Company would be required to pay such liability.
NOTE 15 — RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Although some of the accounting standards issued or effective in the current fiscal year may be applicable to it, the Company believes that none of the new standards have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”, which requires additional disclosure of significant segment expenses on an annual and interim basis. This guidance will be applied retrospectively and will be effective for the annual periods beginning the year ended December 31, 2024, and for interim periods beginning January 1, 2025. The Company adopted this guidance for the year ended December 31, 2024. Refer to Note 16 “Segment Reporting” of these condensed consolidated financial statements for the additional disclosures applied on a retrospective basis.
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. This guidance will be effective for the annual periods beginning the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03,“Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Incomes Statement Expenses,” which serves to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses by requiring more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. This guidance will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the updated guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 16— SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company is organized into reporting segments based on the nature of the products offered and business activities from which it earns revenues and incurs expenses for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer and President, who reviews operating income by segment in relation to total operating income to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance.
The Company’s segments and their product and service offerings are summarized below:
Heavy Fabrications
The Company provides large, complex and precision fabrications to customers in a broad range of industrial markets. The Company’s most significant presence is within the U.S. wind energy industry, although it has diversified into other industrial markets in order to improve capacity utilization, reduce customer concentrations, and reduce exposure to uncertainty related to governmental policies currently impacting the U.S. wind energy industry. Within the U.S. wind energy industry, the Company provides steel towers and repowering adapters primarily to wind turbine manufacturers. Production facilities, located in Manitowoc, Wisconsin and Abilene, Texas, are situated in close proximity to the primary U.S. domestic wind energy and equipment manufacturing hubs. The
Gearing
The Company provides gearing, gearboxes and precision machined components to a broad set of customers in diverse markets including surface and underground mining, wind energy, steel, material handling, infrastructure, onshore and offshore oil and gas fracking and drilling, marine, defense, and other industrial markets. The Company has manufactured loose gearing, gearboxes and systems, and provided heat treat services for aftermarket and OEM applications for a century. The Company uses an integrated manufacturing process, which includes machining and finishing processes in addition to gearbox repair in Cicero, Illinois, and heat treatment and gearbox repair in Neville Island, Pennsylvania.
Industrial Solutions
The Company provides supply chain solutions, light fabrication, inventory management and kitting and assembly services, primarily serving the combined cycle natural gas turbine market. The Company has recently expanded into the U.S. wind power generation market, by providing tower internals kitting solutions for on-site installations, as OEMs domesticate their supply chain due to lead time and reliability issues. The Company leverages a global supply chain to provide instrumentation and controls, valve assemblies, sensor devices, fuel system components, electrical junction boxes and wiring, and electromechanical devices. The Company also provides packaging solutions and fabricates panels and sub-assemblies to reduce customers’ costs and improve manufacturing velocity and reliability.
Corporate
“Corporate” includes the assets and selling, general and administrative expenses of the Company’s corporate office. “Eliminations” comprises adjustments to reconcile segment results to consolidated results.
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those referenced in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation” of these condensed consolidated financial statements. Summary financial information by reportable segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 is as follows:

NOTE 17 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Environmental Compliance and Remediation Liabilities
The Company’s operations and products are subject to a variety of environmental laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates and sells products governing, among other things, air emissions, wastewater discharges, the use, handling and disposal of hazardous materials, soil and groundwater contamination, employee health and safety, and product content, performance and packaging. Certain environmental laws may impose the entire cost or a portion of the cost of investigating and cleaning up a contaminated site, regardless of fault, upon any one or more of a number of parties, including the current or previous owners or operators of the site. These environmental laws also impose liability on any person who arranges for the disposal or treatment of hazardous substances at a contaminated site. Third parties may also make claims against owners or operators of sites and users of disposal sites for personal injuries and property damage associated with releases of hazardous substances from those sites.
Allowance for Credit Losses
Beginning January 1, 2023, the Company assessed and recorded an allowance for credit losses using the current expected credit loss model. The adjustment for credit losses to management’s current estimate is recorded in net income as credit loss expense. All credit losses were on trade receivables and/or contract assets arising from the Company’s contracts with customers.
The Company monitors its collections and write-off experience to assess whether or not adjustments to its allowance estimates are necessary. Changes in trends in any of the factors that the Company believes may impact the collectability of its accounts receivable, or modifications to its credit standards, collection practices and other related policies may impact the Company’s allowance for credit losses and its financial results. The activity in the accounts receivable allowance liability for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 consisted of the following:

Collateral
In select instances, the Company has pledged specific inventory and machinery and equipment assets to serve as collateral on related payable or financing obligations.
Liquidated Damages
In certain customer contracts, the Company has agreed to pay liquidated damages in the event of qualifying delivery or production delays. These damages are typically limited to a specific percentage of the value of the product in question and/or are dependent on actual losses sustained by the customer. The Company does not believe that this potential exposure will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. There was no reserve for liquidated damages at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto in Item 1, “Financial Statements,” of this Quarterly Report and the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. The discussion below contains forward-looking statements that are based upon our current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances including, but not limited to, those identified in “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of Item 2. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to inaccurate assumptions and known or unknown risks and uncertainties. As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer to Broadwind, Inc., a Delaware corporation headquartered in Cicero, Illinois, and its subsidiaries, as appropriate.

KEY METRICS USED BY MANAGEMENT TO MEASURE PERFORMANCE
In addition to measures of financial performance presented in our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, we use certain other financial measures to analyze our performance. These non-GAAP financial measures primarily consist of adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) and free cash flow which help us evaluate growth trends, establish budgets, assess operational efficiencies, oversee our overall liquidity, and evaluate our overall financial performance.

We provide non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, share based compensation and other stock payments, restructuring costs, impairment charges, proxy contest-related expenses, and other non-cash gains and losses) as supplemental information regarding our business performance. Our management uses adjusted EBITDA when it internally evaluates the performance of our business, reviews financial trends and makes operating and strategic decisions. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it provides a better understanding of our past financial performance and future results, and it allows investors to evaluate our performance using the same methodology and information as used by our management. Our definition of adjusted EBITDA may be different from similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and/or analysts. |
| (2) |
We define free cash flow as adjusted EBITDA plus or minus changes in operating working capital less capital expenditures net of any proceeds from disposals of property and equipment. We believe free cash flow is a useful measure for investors because it portrays our ability to generate cash from our business for purposes such as repaying maturing debt and funding future investments. |
| (3) |
We define operating working capital as accounts receivable and inventory net of accounts payable and customer deposits. |
| (4) |
Our backlog at June 30, 2025 and 2024 is net of revenue recognized over time. Backlog has been adjusted to reflect updated assumptions related to raw material pricing (which is a customer passthrough) and other variables. Additionally, orders and backlog at June 30, 2025 have been adjusted for orders totaling $2,320 received in prior periods that we do not plan to recognize as revenue as a result of the transaction described in the Manitowoc Purchase Agreement (defined below). |
| (5) |
We define the book-to-bill as the ratio of new orders we received, net of cancellations, to revenue during a period. |

OUR BUSINESS
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”), which was signed into law on July 4, 2025, eliminates AMP credits for components produced and sold after December 31, 2027. The OBBBA shortened the time period in which we could benefit from the AMP credits, which could have a material adverse effect on our business in the near term. Under the OBBBA, wind projects that begin construction after July 4, 2026, must be placed in service by December 31, 2027, to qualify for the production tax credit (“PTC”) or the investment tax credit (“ITC”). Any wind project that begins construction after July 4, 2026, and is not placed in service by December 31, 2027, will not qualify for the PTC or the ITC. The PTC and ITC drive demand for new wind projects by providing financial incentives to developers. We expect the changes to the PTC and the ITC could lead to a decrease in the number of new wind projects, which would cause a corresponding decrease in demand for our wind products. Lower demand for our wind products, coupled with the expedited phase out of the AMP credits, would adversely impact the profitability of our Heavy Fabrications segment.
Second Quarter Overview
We received $20,956 in new orders in the second quarter, up from $18,372 in the second quarter of 2024. Industrial Solutions orders increased by over 200% compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to an increase in demand associated with new gas turbine and aftermarket gas turbine projects. Additionally, Gearing segment orders increased 45% versus the prior year period primarily due to improved demand from most markets served. Partially offsetting this was a significant decrease in orders within our Heavy Fabrications segment as orders were muted as we wind down operations in our Manitowoc facility in conjunction with the pending sale of the Manitowoc facility (described below).
We recognized revenue of $39,235 in the second quarter, which was an 8% increase compared to the second quarter of 2024.Within the Heavy Fabrications segment, wind revenue increased 52% as we restarted tower production with a limited run at our Manitowoc facility and recognized increased wind repowering revenue. This was partially offset by a decrease in industrial fabrication product line revenue as we experienced reduced shipments to mining customers. Industrial Solutions segment revenue increased by 14% from the prior year period primarily due to increased shipments to new gas turbine customers. Gearing segment revenue decreased 30% relative to the comparable prior year period primarily due to reduced shipments to oil and gas (“O&G”) customers.
We recorded a net loss of $989 or ($0.04) per share in the second quarter of 2025, compared to net income of $482 or $0.02 per share in the second quarter of 2024. Despite an increase in revenue, net income decreased due primarily to manufacturing inefficiencies experienced within the Heavy Fabrications segment and increased fixed costs to support higher production levels.
On June 4, 2025, we entered into a definitive agreement (the “Manitowoc Purchase Agreement”) with Wisconsin Heavy Fabrication, LLC to sell certain assets used in our industrial fabrication operations in Manitowoc, Wisconsin including specified contracts, equipment, machinery and other personal property, and permits for an aggregate purchase price of up to $13,800 in cash, subject to certain purchase price adjustments. The transaction is expected to close during the third quarter of 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. As such, within the Heavy Fabrications segment we have only reported orders and backlog which we believe will be recorded as revenue.

Consolidated
Revenues increased by $2,783 as compared to the prior year period primarily due to a 27% increase in revenue within our Heavy Fabrications segment. Wind revenue increased 52% from the prior year period as we restarted tower production with a limited run at our Manitowoc facility and recognized increased wind repowering revenue. This was partially offset by a decrease in industrial fabrication product line revenues as we experienced reduced shipments to mining customers. Industrial Solutions segment revenue increased 14% from the prior year period primarily due to higher shipments to new gas turbine customers. Gearing segment revenue decreased 30% relative to the comparable prior year period, reflective of reduced shipments to O&G customers.
Despite the increase in revenue described above, gross profit decreased versus the prior year due primarily to manufacturing inefficiencies experienced within Heavy Fabrications and increased fixed costs to support higher volumes. Operating expenses decreased from the prior year period primarily due to lower professional expenses and incentive compensation, partially offset by higher medical costs in the current year quarter.
We recorded a net loss of $989 during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net income of $482 during the three months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease in net income was primarily due to the factors described above.

Within our Heavy Fabrications segment, orders decreased 97% from the prior year period as orders were muted as we wind down certain operations due to the pending sale of the Manitowoc facility. Segment revenues increased by 27% compared to the prior year period as we restarted tower production with a limited run at our Manitowoc facility and recognized increased wind repowering revenue. This was partially offset by a 20% decrease in industrial fabrication product line revenue as we experienced reduced shipments to mining customers.
Heavy Fabrications segment operating income increased by $154 as compared to the prior year period. The increase in operating income was primarily a result of higher segment revenue and the corresponding increase in Advanced Manufacturing Production tax credits (“AMP credits”) recognized. This was partially offset by manufacturing inefficiencies associated with the production of a new, larger size wind tower model and restarting tower production on a limited run within our Manitowoc facility.

Consolidated
Revenues for the six months ending June 30, 2025, increased by $2,005 as compared to the prior year period primarily due to an increase in revenue within our Heavy Fabrications segment. Wind revenue increased 39% from the prior year period primarily due to restarting tower production with a limited run at our Manitowoc facility and increased wind repowering revenue. Partially offsetting this was a 17% decrease in industrial fabrication product line revenues due primarily to lower sales of our Pressure Reducing Systems (“PRS”) units and reduced shipments to mining customers. Gearing segment revenue decreased 29% compared to the prior year period, reflective of reduced shipments to O&G customers. Industrial Solutions segment revenue decreased 10% from the prior year period primarily due to reduced shipments to aftermarket gas turbine customers, partially offset by higher shipments to new gas turbine customers.
Despite the increase in revenue described above, gross profit decreased versus the prior year period due primarily to manufacturing inefficiencies experienced within Heavy Fabrications and increased fixed costs to support higher volumes. Operating expenses decreased from the prior year period primarily due to lower incentive compensation and commission expenses in the current year period.
We recorded a net loss of $1,359 during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net income of $1,992 during the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease in net income was primarily due to the factors described above.

Within our Heavy Fabrications segment, orders decreased 49% from the prior year period primarily due to a 75% decrease in industrial fabrication product line orders as we wind down certain operations in conjunction with the pending sale of the Manitowoc facility and lower demand for our PRS units. Partially offsetting this decrease was a 92% increase in wind orders primarily due to the timing of orders associated with wind repowering projects. Segment revenues increased by 21% compared to the prior year period primarily due to a 39% increase in wind revenue as we restarted tower production with a limited run at our Manitowoc facility and recognized increased wind repowering revenue. This was partially offset by a 17% decrease in industrial fabrication product line revenues due to reduced shipments to mining customers and fewer shipments of our PRS units.
Heavy Fabrications segment operating income increased by $351 as compared to the prior year period. The improved operating performance was primarily a result of higher segment revenue and the corresponding increase in AMP credits recognized, partially offset by manufacturing inefficiencies associated with the production of a new, larger size wind tower model and restarting tower production on a limited run within our Manitowoc facility.

Industrial Solutions segment orders increased from the prior year period primarily due to an increase in orders associated with new and aftermarket gas turbine projects. Segment revenues decreased from the prior year period primarily due to decreased shipments to aftermarket gas turbine customers, partially offset by increased shipments to new gas turbine customers. Operating income decreased versus the prior year period primarily as a result of lower sales and a less profitable mix of product sold.
Corporate and Other
Corporate and Other expenses decreased compared to the prior year period primarily due to lower employee compensation, partially offset by higher medical costs in the current year period.
LIQUIDITY, FINANCIAL POSITION AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
On August 4, 2022, we entered into a credit agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as lender (“Wells Fargo”), providing the Company and its subsidiaries with a $35,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (which may be further increased by up to an additional $10,000 upon the request of the Company and at the sole discretion of Wells Fargo) and a $7,578 senior secured term loan (collectively, the “2022 Credit Facility”). The proceeds of the 2022 Credit Facility are available for general corporate purposes, including strategic growth opportunities. As of June 30, 2025, cash totaled $1,037, a decrease of $6,684 from December 31, 2024. Debt and finance lease obligations at June 30, 2025 totaled $31,423. As of June 30, 2025, we had $24,671 outstanding under the 2022 Credit Facility and had the ability to borrow up to an additional $13,831.
In addition to the 2022 Credit Facility, we also utilize supply chain financing arrangements as a component of our funding for working capital, which accelerates receivable collections and helps to better manage cash flow. Under these agreements, we have agreed to sell certain of our accounts receivable balances to banking institutions who have agreed to advance amounts equal to the net accounts receivable balances due, less a discount as set forth in the respective agreements. The balances under these agreements are accounted for as sales of accounts receivable, as they are sold without recourse. Cash proceeds from these agreements are reflected as operating activities included in the change in accounts receivable in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Fees incurred in connection with the agreements are recorded as interest expense.
We also have outstanding notes payable for capital expenditures in the amount of $1,434 and $1,618 as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, with $383 and $371 included in the “Line of Credit and current maturities of long-term debt” line item of our condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The notes payable have monthly payments that range from $1 to $20 and an interest rate of approximately 7%. The equipment purchased is utilized as collateral for the notes payable. The outstanding notes payable have maturity dates that range from September 2028 to June 2029.
On September 22, 2023, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 12, 2023 (the “Form S-3”), replacing a prior shelf registration statement which expired on October 12, 2023. The Form S-3 will expire on October 12, 2026. This shelf registration statement, which includes a base prospectus, allows us to offer any combination of securities described in the prospectus in one or more offerings. Unless otherwise specified in the prospectus supplement accompanying the base prospectus, we would use the net proceeds from the sale of any securities offered pursuant to the shelf registration statement for general corporate purposes.
On September 12, 2022, we entered into a Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Roth Capital Partners, LLC and HC Wainwright & Co., LLC (collectively, the “Agents”). Pursuant to the terms of the Sales Agreement, we may sell from time to time through the Agents shares of our common stock with an aggregate sales price of up to $12,000. We will pay a commission to the Agents of 2.75% of the gross proceeds of the sale of the shares sold under the Sales Agreement and reimburse the Agents for the expenses incident to the performance of their obligations under the Sales Agreement. No shares of the Company’s common stock were issued under the Sales Agreement during the year ended December 31, 2024 or six months ended June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, shares of our common stock having a value of approximately $11,667 remained available for issuance under the Sales Agreement. Any additional shares offered and sold under the Sales Agreement are to be issued pursuant to the Form S-3 and a 424(b) prospectus supplement.
We anticipate that current cash resources, amounts available under the 2022 Credit Facility, cash to be generated from operations and equipment financing, potential proceeds from the sale of securities under the Sales Agreement, access to the public or private debt and/or equity markets including any potential proceeds from the sale of further securities under the Form S-3, and proceeds from sales of AMP credits will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months.
If assumptions regarding our production, sales and subsequent collections from certain of our large customers, our ability to finalize the terms of the remaining obligations under a supply agreement with a leading global wind turbine manufacturer, as well as receipt of customer deposits and revenues generated from new customer orders, are materially inconsistent with management’s expectations, we may in the future encounter cash flow and liquidity issues.
If our operational performance deteriorates, we may be unable to comply with existing financial covenants, and could lose access to the 2022 Credit Facility. This could limit our operational flexibility, require a delay in making planned investments and/or require us to seek additional equity or debt financing. Any attempt to raise equity through the public markets could have a negative effect on our stock price, making an equity raise more difficult or more dilutive. Any additional equity financing or equity-linked financing, if available, will be dilutive to stockholders, and additional debt financing, if available, would likely require new financial covenants or impose other operating and financial restrictions on the Company and could be on less favorable terms than the 2022 Credit Facility. While we believe that we will continue to have sufficient cash available to operate our businesses and to meet our financial obligations and debt covenants for the next twelve months, there can be no assurances that our operations will generate sufficient cash, or that credit facilities or equity or equity-linked financings will be available in an amount sufficient to enable us to meet these financial obligations.
Sources and Uses of Cash

Operating Cash Flows
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, net cash used in operating activities totaled $20,498 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $3,427 during the prior year period. The increase in net cash used in operating activities during the current year period was primarily attributable to a more significant increase in inventory, decreased proceeds from the sale of AMP credits, and an increase in cash used to fund accounts receivable in the current year period. Partially offsetting this was an increase in accounts payable during the current year period as compared to a decrease in the prior year period.
Investing Cash Flows
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, net cash used in investing activities totaled $2,115, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $2,375 during the prior year period. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities as compared to the prior-year period was primarily due to a net decrease in purchases of property and equipment.
Financing Cash Flows
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, net cash provided by financing activities totaled $15,929, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $5,641 during the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to increased net borrowings under the 2022 Credit Facility in the current year period, partially offset by proceeds from long-term debt received in the prior year period.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
There have been no material changes in our critical accounting estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the critical accounting estimates described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The preceding discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Portions of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the discussion and analysis in this Part I, Item 2, contain “forward looking statements”, as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”), that reflect our current expectations regarding our future growth, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, performance, business prospects and opportunities, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our management.

| Risk Factors |
The Risk Factors identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 continue to represent the most significant risks to the Company’s future results of operations and financial conditions except for the updated risk factor set forth below.
The U.S. wind energy industry is significantly impacted by tax and other economic incentives. Recent changes in these incentives could significantly impact our results of operations and growth.
We sell towers to wind turbine manufacturers who supply wind energy generation facilities. The U.S. wind energy industry is significantly impacted by federal tax incentives and state Renewable Portfolio Standards (“RPSs”). Despite recent reductions in the cost of wind energy, due to variability in wind quality and consistency, and other regional differences, wind energy may not be economically viable in certain parts of the country absent such incentives. These programs have provided material incentives to develop wind energy generation facilities and thereby impact the demand for our products. The increased demand for our products that generally results from the credits and incentives could be impacted by the expiration or curtailment of these programs. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”), which was signed into law on July 4, 2025, significantly shortens the eligibility windows for certain of these federal tax incentives. The expedited phase out of the production tax credit (“PTC”) for new wind energy projects, investment tax credit (“ITC”) created for offshore wind projects, and the AMP credits could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial performance and future development efforts.
The PTC provides a supplemental payment based on electricity produced from each qualifying wind turbine. Legislative support for the PTC has been intermittent since its introduction in 1992, which has caused volatility in the demand for new wind energy projects.
The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (“COVID IV”) was signed into law on December 27, 2020. As part of COVID IV, the PTC was extended for an additional year, allowing for a 60% credit for projects that start construction by the end of 2021. In order to benefit from the PTC, qualifying projects must either be completed within four years from their start of construction, or the developer must demonstrate that its projects are in continuous construction between start of construction and completion. The PTC tax benefits are available for the first ten years of operation of a wind energy facility, and also apply to significant redevelopment of existing wind energy facilities. Included in COVID IV is the addition of a new 30% ITC created for offshore wind projects that start construction by the end of 2025. The provision will be retroactively applied to projects that started production in 2016.
On August 16, 2022, the IRA was enacted to reduce inflation and promote clean energy in the United States. The IRA modified and extended the PTC until the later of 2032 or when greenhouse gas emissions have been reduced by 75% compared to 2022. It provides for tax credits up to a maximum of 30%, adjusted for inflation annually, for electricity generated from qualified renewable energy sources where taxpayers meet prevailing wage standards and employ a sufficient proportion of qualified apprentices from registered apprenticeship programs. It also provides a bonus credit for qualifying clean energy production in energy communities.
Under the OBBBA, wind projects that begin construction after July 4, 2026, must be placed in service by December 31, 2027, to qualify for the PTC or the ITC. Any wind project that begins construction after July 4, 2026, and is not placed in service by December 31, 2027, will not qualify for the PTC or the ITC. Wind projects that begin construction prior to July 4, 2026 may take advantage of the four-year construction safe harbor provision in COVID IV. In addition, the PTC and ITC will not be available for wind projects that are owned by, or receive material assistance from, entities from covered nations, including China, Iran, North Korean or Russia. The PTC and ITC also face heightened compliance requirements under executive orders issued alongside the OBBBA. These executive orders instruct the U.S. Treasury Department to issue stricter guidance and oversight regarding qualification standards, including the “beginning of construction” tests. These changes to the PTC and the ITC may lead to a decrease in the number of new wind projects, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
The IRA also includes AMP credits for manufacturers of eligible components, including wind and solar components. Under the IRA, manufacturers qualified for the AMP credits based on the electricity output for each component produced and sold in the US starting in 2023 through 2032. The OBBBA eliminates the AMP credits for wind components produced and sold after December 31, 2027. The credit amount varies based on the eligible component, which includes solar components, wind energy components, inverters, qualifying battery components, and critical minerals. Tower manufacturers are eligible for credits of $0.03 per watt for applicable components produced. Manufacturers can elect a direct pay option where they can receive a payment equal to the full value of the tax credits from the Internal Revenue Service anytime during the ten-year period. That election lasts for five years, after which the AMP credits can be used against tax obligations or transferred to third parties in exchange for cash. We expect certain financial benefits as a result of tax incentives provided by the IRA. If these expected financial benefits vary significantly from our assumptions, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected. The OBBBA significantly shortened the time period in which we could benefit from the AMP credits, which could have a material adverse effect on our business in the near term. Any further modifications to the AMP credits or its effects arising, for example, through (i) technical guidance and regulations from the IRS and U.S. Treasury Department, (ii) subsequent amendments to or interpretations of the law, and/or (iii) future laws or regulations rendering certain provisions of the IRA less effective or ineffective, in whole or in part, could result in material adverse changes to the benefits we have recognized and expect to recognize.
Several significant administrative law cases were decided by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2024, most notably Loper Bright Enterprises V. Raimondo. In Loper Bright, the U.S. Supreme Court held that the U.S. Administrative Procedure Act requires that courts exercise their independent judgment when deciding whether a federal agency has acted within its statutory authority, and not to defer to an agency interpretation solely because a statute is ambiguous. These decisions may result in additional legal challenges to regulations and guidance issued by federal regulatory agencies, including the IRS, which the Company relies on and intends to rely on in the future. Successful challenges of certain regulations, any increased regulatory uncertainty, or delays or other impacts to the federal agency rulemaking process could adversely impact our business and operations.
RPSs generally require or encourage state regulated electric utilities to supply a certain proportion of electricity from renewable energy sources or to devote a certain portion of their plant capacity to renewable energy generation. Typically, utilities comply with such standards by qualifying for renewable energy credits evidencing the share of electricity that was produced from renewable sources. Under many state standards, these renewable energy credits can be unbundled from their associated energy and traded in a market system, allowing generators with insufficient credits to meet their applicable state mandate. These standards have spurred significant growth in the wind energy industry and a corresponding increase in the demand for our products. Currently, the majority of states have RPSs in place and certain states have voluntary utility commitments to supply a specific percentage of their electricity from renewable sources. The enactment of RPSs in additional states or any changes to existing RPSs (including changes due to the failure to extend or renew the federal incentives described above), or the enactment of a federal RPS or imposition of other greenhouse gas regulations, may impact the demand for our products. We cannot assure that government support for renewable energy will continue including any assurance regarding the adoption of any of the clean energy provisions of former President Biden’s Build Back Better agenda. The elimination of, or reduction in, state or federal government policies that support renewable energy could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial performance and future development efforts.
