NNBR Q3 2026 results
In one sentence
NN, Inc. reported revenue of $131 million for Q3 2026, up 26% from a year earlier (NN, Inc., Oct 28, 2026).
| Measure | Q3 2026 | Q3 2025 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | $131 million | $104 million | up 26% |
| Diluted EPS (GAAP) | -$0.13 | -$0.23 | n/a |
| Diluted EPS (Non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) per diluted common share) | $0.07 | -$0.01 | n/a |
| Net income | -$4.6 million | -$6.7 million | n/a |
The quarter ended September 30, 2026 and NN, Inc. published the results on October 28, 2026. Revenue and diluted EPS are shown against Q3 2025, the same quarter a year earlier, which takes seasonal swings out of the comparison. NN, Inc. reports EPS two ways: GAAP, under the accounting rules every US filer follows, and Non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) per diluted common share, which leaves out items the company considers outside its operating results. The release reconciles the two, and when they diverge, the reconciliation says why.
- NN's GAAP loss per share is larger than net loss divided by shares because preferred stock cumulative dividends and deemed dividends are charged to common holders: $0.07 per share in Q3 2026 and $0.10 in Q3 2025. NN paid off its Series D preferred stock during 2026 through cash redemptions and exchanges for common stock.
- Weighted shares rose to 78,109 thousand from 49,605 thousand after NN issued 24,509,804 shares in a private placement closed on July 2, 2026 and further shares in exchange for preferred stock.

Segment lines are the figures writers cite most often, because they show where the growth in a quarter came from. Companies redraw their segments from time to time and restate the prior year to match, so a year-ago figure here can differ from the one printed a year ago. When that has happened, the note above says so.

What NN, Inc.'s revenue is made of
NN, Inc. makes high-precision metal components and assemblies in two segments. Mobile Solutions, mostly automotive and commercial vehicle parts, had net sales of $68.2 million in Q3 2026, up 15.3%. Power Solutions, which serves data center, electric grid, defense and medical customers, had $63.2 million, up 40.6%. Total net sales were $131.1 million, up 26.2% from $103.9 million. (NN, Inc. Q3 2026 release, Oct 28, 2026; NN, Inc. Form 10-Q, Q3 2026, Oct 28, 2026)
By end market, Global Automotive was still the largest at $53.3 million, against $50.6 million a year earlier. The fastest growth was in Data Center & Electric Grid, $25.4 million against $17.7 million, and Defense & Electronics, $22.4 million against $8.6 million. Commercial Vehicle was $14.9 million, Industrial $11.8 million and Medical $3.5 million. NN recast these categories in Q2 2026. (NN, Inc. Form 10-Q, Q3 2026, Oct 28, 2026)
NN said the increase in net sales was primarily driven by higher selling prices from passing increased raw material costs through to customers, along with higher volumes and favorable foreign exchange. In Power Solutions the price pass-through was the first driver named; in Mobile Solutions it was higher volumes. (NN, Inc. Q3 2026 release, Oct 28, 2026)
NN's customer base is concentrated. Its top ten customers accounted for approximately 49% of net sales in 2025, and 60% of products were sold to customers in North America, 19% in Asia, 10% in South America and 11% in Europe. (NN, Inc. Form 10-K, 2025, Mar 4, 2026)
What NN, Inc.'s EPS includes
NN, Inc. posted a GAAP net loss of $4.6 million in Q3 2026, against $6.7 million a year earlier, or $0.13 per share against $0.23. The loss from operations widened to $3.3 million from $2.2 million on higher labor costs from hiring for new business and higher professional fees, but the net loss narrowed because of a gain from a favorable tax ruling in Brazil and higher income from NN's joint venture in China ($3.2 million, against $2.0 million). (NN, Inc. Q3 2026 release, Oct 28, 2026)
Adjusted net income was $5.3 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, against an adjusted net loss of $0.3 million, or $(0.01). The adjustments add back facility costs ($3.9 million), personnel costs ($2.9 million), professional fees ($1.6 million) and amortization of intangibles and deferred financing costs ($3.7 million), subtract the $2.8 million Brazil tax and insurance settlement, and add back $0.07 per share of preferred stock cumulative and deemed dividends. (NN, Inc. Q3 2026 release, Oct 28, 2026)
The share count rose sharply. Shares used to calculate EPS were 78,109 thousand, against 49,605 thousand, after NN issued 24,509,804 shares in a private placement that closed on July 2, 2026 and issued 5,500,000 shares in exchange for Series D preferred stock. NN also redeemed 36,750 preferred shares for $70.0 million in cash. (NN, Inc. Q3 2026 release, Oct 28, 2026; NN, Inc. Form 10-Q, Q3 2026, Oct 28, 2026)
Diluted EPS divides net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the quarter, plus the shares that options and other equity awards could add. Buybacks shrink that count and lift EPS for the same profit; share issuance and stock awards enlarge it.
Consensus and guidance at NN, Inc.
NN, Inc. gives a full-year outlook in its release and raised it again with Q3 results: net sales of $480 to $500 million, which NN says is 16% growth at the midpoint, Adjusted EBITDA of $64 to $68 million, and new business wins of $110 to $130 million. (NN, Inc. Q3 2026 release, Oct 28, 2026)
Net sales for the first nine months were $378.3 million, so the guidance range implies Q4 2026 net sales of roughly $101.7 million to $121.7 million. NN said it will be more specific about 2027 once its 2027 business planning is complete. (NN, Inc. Q3 2026 release, Oct 28, 2026)
A consensus figure is the average of the models published by the analysts who cover NN, Inc., collected by a data provider and revised up to the day of the report. A quarter that lands above it says how expectations were set as much as how the business did, and the share price on the day also reflects the guidance and the lines no consensus covers.
The consensus figures on this page are Yahoo Finance's, as pulled on the date shown. Each comes with the number of analysts behind it; the smaller that number, the more one revised estimate can move the average.

What the quarter means for a holding is a separate question from what it reported. The case for and against owning NNBR is on is NNBR a buy or a sell?, what analysts expect next is on the NNBR forecast, and what the company does is on the NN, Inc. (NNBR) stock page.
How to check NNBR's figures yourself
Every number on this page can be traced to a document NN, Inc. published. Checking one takes a couple of minutes, and it is worth doing before you quote a figure anywhere.
- The results release is the document linked in the source line above. Companies publish it on their investor relations site at the moment results go out, and it carries the headline tables: revenue, operating income, net income and EPS for the quarter and the year-ago quarter.
- The same release is filed with the SEC as Exhibit 99.1 to a Form 8-K under Item 2.02, usually on the day of the report. The SEC copy does not change after the fact, which makes it the safer thing to link when you cite a number.
- The quarterly report (Form 10-Q) follows within a few weeks and carries the full financial statements, the segment note and management's discussion of what changed. The fourth quarter is covered by the annual report (Form 10-K) instead.
- Restated comparisons are flagged in the notes on this page. When a company redraws its segments or changes how it adjusts EPS, it restates the year-ago column, so the year-ago figure in a new release can differ from the one printed a year ago. This page always uses the comparison in the newer release, because that is the like-for-like one.
