5 Pillar Growth Highlights:

•5 Pillar growth program delivered material results in Q2, approximately $40 million in new wins in Data Center, Medical, and Defense.

•Data Center business is fast growing for NN, and the Company is on pace to install approximately 50 new machines during 2026 and has a $50+ million, growing pipeline.

•July year-to-date new business awards were over 100 programs valued at approximately $80 million per year.

•NN is raising full year guidance for new business awards during 2026 to $80 million to $100 million, up 29% at the midpoint compared to 2025.

Harold Bevis, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “NN delivered strong financial performance in the second quarter with record results in many areas. Additionally, after the quarter ended, we implemented a game-changing improvement to our balance sheet.

Our 5 pillar growth program is delivering results. These new sales are higher margin, attached to higher growth rate end markets, and mostly immediate 2026 startup. The second half of 2026 is expected to reflect continued momentum and strong financial performance.

We have completed a refinancing of the preferred stock put in place over five years ago. Amongst other benefits, we paid off approximately $89 million of the preferred stock. This refinancing was enabled by sustained multi-year performance of the company in the right market areas. I am also happy to report that, as part of this refinancing, we have expanded our investor roster with new institutional investors. This is a gratifying turning point for the company and NN investors and is indicative of a future based upon sales-driven earnings growth in attractive end-markets.”

Bevis continued, "Our 3 part execution on current production, new business startups, and new business prospecting continues to be very good. In the quarter, our mastery of high-volume titanium machining was noteworthy. Our gross margins and adjusted EBITDA margins continue to climb. We are achieving many multi-year goals and revising our outlooks based upon our actual results. We now believe that we can deliver higher margins than previously estimated.

During the quarter, NN secured significant 2026 immediate-supply awards for Data Center liquid cooling products, robotic surgery medical products, and defense products. Our year-to-date 5 Pillar growth program performance has delivered above expectations and our prospecting is expanding."

Bevis concluded, "We are encouraged by the business results and refinancing results that we have delivered this year. We see continuation into the second half. We believe the second half of 2026 and 2027 will continue to benefit from our multi-year strategic growth focus and operational execution processes. Our 5 pillar growth program is delivering strong results. We are also reengineering our balance sheet right now, reducing leverage and reducing rates. We have a goal to refinance the current securities and convert NN to normal credit statistics. We believe that we are just at the beginning of common stock value-creation and it is an exciting time at NN.”

For fiscal 2026, we are now guiding net sales in the range of $460 million to $470 million and adjusted EBITDA in the range of $55 million to $65 million, reflecting strong, profitable growth versus prior year.

This presentation contains certain financial measures not presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross margin %, adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted common share, and free cash flow (collectively, the “non-GAAP financial measures”). These non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the most directly comparable GAAP measures, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, together with the comparable GAAP measures, to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and underlying business trends across periods on a consistent basis, and to assist in operational and financial decision-making, including with respect to internal budgeting and resource allocation. Reconciliations of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP measure are set forth in the tables accompanying this presentation.
