Titan Machinery Inc. Announces Results for Fiscal Second Quarter Ended July 31, 2026

- Gross Margin Expanded 150 bps y/y as Inventory Actions Continue to Drive Margin Recovery -

- Updates Fiscal 2027 Segment Modeling Assumptions; Reaffirms Profitability Outlook -

WEST FARGO, N.D., Aug. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Titan Machinery Inc. (Nasdaq: TITN) ("Titan" or the "Company"), a leading network of full-service agricultural and construction equipment stores, today reported financial results for the fiscal second quarter ended July 31, 2026.

"Our fiscal 2027 second quarter results reflect continued progress on improving inventory health, with equipment margins in our Agriculture segment coming in modestly ahead of our expectations for the quarter, which are helping drive a lift in consolidated gross margin in the face of a difficult revenue environment," stated Bryan Knutson, Titan Machinery's President and Chief Executive Officer. "At the same time, overall demand across our North American Agriculture business played out largely as we anticipated and fundamentals are suggesting that calendar year 2026 could be the bottom of this cycle. Our team remains focused on the areas within our control and I'm confident that the actions we have taken over the past two years position Titan favorably as agricultural fundamentals eventually recover."

Fiscal 2027 Second Quarter Results

Consolidated Results

For the second quarter of fiscal 2027, revenue was $496.4 million compared to $546.4 million in the second quarter last year. Equipment revenue was $328.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $376.3 million in the second quarter last year. Parts revenue was $106.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $109.2 million in the second quarter last year. Service revenue was $46.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $48.8 million in the second quarter last year. Rental and other revenue was $14.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $12.1 million in the second quarter last year.

Gross profit for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was $92.4 million, compared to $93.6 million in the second quarter last year. Gross profit margin was 18.6% in the second quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to 17.1% in the second quarter last year. The year-over-year improvement in gross profit margin primarily reflects stronger equipment margins given continued reductions in aged inventory, alongside a higher mix of parts and service revenue.

Operating expenses increased to $94.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $92.7 million in the second quarter last year. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue were 19.0% for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to 17.0% of revenue in the second quarter last year.

Floorplan interest expense and other interest expense decreased to $8.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $11.5 million for the same period last year. The decrease was driven by lower interest-bearing inventory levels.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2027, net loss was $9.2 million, with loss per diluted share of $0.40, compared to a net loss of $6.0 million, with loss per diluted share of $0.26, for the same period last year.

Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was $4.6 million, compared to $5.6 million in the second quarter last year.

Segment Results

Agriculture Segment - Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was $310.2 million, compared to $345.8 million in the second quarter last year, reflecting a same-store sales decrease of 8.4%. The decrease resulted from softer demand for equipment compared to the prior year period, driven by continued pressure on grower profitability. Pre-tax loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 improved to $3.3 million, compared to $12.3 million in the second quarter last year.

Construction Segment - Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was $78.6 million, compared to $72.0 million in the second quarter last year, reflecting a same-store sales increase of 9.2%, which was primarily due to higher equipment sales. Pre-tax income for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 improved to $0.4 million, compared to pre-tax loss of $1.2 million in the second quarter last year.

Europe Segment - Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was $66.1 million, including a $1.1 million benefit related to foreign currency fluctuations versus the prior year period, compared to $98.1 million in the second quarter last year. Net of the effect of these foreign currency fluctuations, revenue decreased $33.1 million, or 33.7%. The wind-down of the Company's German operations contributed approximately $11 million of the year-over-year revenue decrease in the quarter. The remainder of the decrease was primarily due to lower equipment demand compared to the prior year period, which had been driven by stronger sales resulting from European Union stimulus programs in Romania. Pre-tax loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was $1.3 million, compared to pre-tax income of $5.1 million in the second quarter last year.

Australia Segment - Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was $41.4 million, including a $3.9 million benefit related to foreign currency fluctuations versus the prior year period, compared to $30.6 million in the second quarter last year. Net of the effect of these foreign currency fluctuations, revenue increased $6.9 million, or 22.5%. Pre-tax loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was $3.4 million, compared to $2.1 million in the second quarter last year.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

Cash at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was $29.5 million. Total inventories increased by $28.4 million to $931.5 million as of second quarter end, as compared to January 31, 2026. Equipment inventories increased by $21.7 million to $746.9 million as of second quarter end, as compared to January 31, 2026. Outstanding floorplan payables were $623.6 million on $1.5 billion total available floorplan and working capital lines of credit as of July 31, 2026, compared to $553.8 million outstanding floorplan payables as of January 31, 2026.

For the six months ended July 31, 2026, the Company's net cash used for operating activities was $25.1 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $49.9 million for the six months ended July 31, 2025. The change in cash from operating activities was primarily attributable to timing of inventory receipts and changing mix in floorplan financing, which was partially offset by receivable collections compared to the prior year period.

Additional Management Commentary

Mr. Knutson continued, "Over the past two years, our team has meaningfully reshaped our inventory position and has worked hard to manage our cost structure against inflationary pressures, and that work continues to give us a stronger foundation to manage through this cycle. As a result, we are reiterating our fiscal 2027 EPS modeling assumptions. However, we are making several updates to our segment revenue assumptions for fiscal 2027 to reflect current conditions. In Construction, we continue to see the tailwinds from increased activity in our footprint, including data center and other infrastructure projects, and in Australia healthy moisture levels are leading to higher yield expectations and improving farmer sentiment. However, we are revising down our Europe segment revenue outlook given a deterioration in regional sentiment which has resulted in softer demand for equipment than previously anticipated. Overall, I'm proud of how our team continues to execute in a difficult environment, and confident that approach positions us to deliver stronger profitability as conditions improve."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the attached financial tables contain a reconciliation of certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules. As required by SEC rules, the Company has provided a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in the schedule included in this press release. The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, can provide more information to assist investors in evaluating current period performance and in assessing future performance. For these reasons, internal management reporting also includes non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not superior to or as a substitute for, the GAAP financial measures presented in this release and the Company's financial statements and other publicly filed reports. Non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of any adjusted financial measures used in this release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The reconciliation is attached to this release. The table included in the Non-GAAP Reconciliations section reconciles EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to their most directly comparable financial measure. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Consolidated Pre-tax Loss, Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Diluted Loss Per Share, in each case for fiscal 2027 modeling assumptions, is not available without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility of the factors that may impact the comparable GAAP financial measures.
