Redwire Awarded $20 Million Contract for Additional Otter VLEO Testing and Experimentation

Redwire Awarded $20 Million Contract for Additional Otter VLEO Testing and Experimentation

Additional tests of critical air-breathing technology aims to reduce risk for the research and development program

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Redwire Corporation (NYSE: RDW), a global leader in aerospace and defense technology solutions, today announced that it has been awarded a $20 million contract from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to complete additional testing and experimentation on a scaled version of Redwire’s SabreSat spacecraft for a precursor flight test in very low-Earth orbit (VLEO), as part of the DARPA Otter program.

The separate award adds a second VLEO flight mission to Redwire’s work on Otter and marks a major step toward sustained operations in VLEO — one of space’s most challenging and strategically important orbital regimes.

“This flight test allows us to gather data that cannot be fully recreated on the ground, learn faster, and reduce risk for the full Otter mission. Redwire is not simply building one spacecraft. We are creating the platforms, models, and digital infrastructure needed to make VLEO operational at scale,” said Spence Wise, Redwire Senior Vice President of Missions and Platforms. “Redwire’s continued work on the Otter program enables us to mature propulsion and spacecraft systems that can operate in VLEO. These innovations are building a new class of maneuverable, energy‑efficient spacecraft capable of supporting persistent operations in critical orbital regimes, ultimately equipping national security space missions with distinctive operational advantages, from rapid orbital agility to enhanced tactical responsiveness.”

Redwire has built a differentiated, end-to-end VLEO capability spanning spacecraft platforms, environmental modeling, digital engineering and mission integration. Redwire is one of the only providers developing both ultra-low-altitude, air-breathing, and non-air-breathing VLEO platforms designed for proliferated constellations, supported by a validated, multi-physics, multi-mission digital ecosystem built specifically for VLEO.

The Otter Flight Test award builds on Redwire’s $44 million Phase 2 Otter contract announced in November 2025 to complete manufacturing and deliver the full-scale spacecraft to launch. Together, the two announced awards total $64 million and establish a phased flight approach to advance air-breathing technology toward operational use. As prime mission integrator for Otter, Redwire is responsible for developing and integrating the spacecraft using Redwire’s U.S.-built SabreSat Orbital Drone platform.

In addition to Otter, Redwire’s VLEO portfolio includes its role as prime contractor for the European Space Agency’s Skimsat mission, which leverages the company’s European-built Phantom spacecraft, as well as digital engineering work for DeepSat’s planned VLEO constellation. Together, these programs reinforce Redwire’s position at the forefront of developing both the spacecraft and digital foundation required to unlock VLEO for national security, intelligence, communications, and Earth observation missions.

About Redwire

Redwire Corporation (NYSE: RDW) is an integrated space and defense tech company focused on advanced technologies. We are building the future of aerospace infrastructure, autonomous systems, and multi-domain operations leveraging digital engineering and AI automation.

Charming Medical Limited Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Delisting Determination Notice.

Hong Kong, Nov. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Charming Medical Limited (Nasdaq: MCTA) (the “Company”), a Hong Kong-based provider of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)-inspired therapies and products, today announced that it received a delisting determination letter, dated October 29, 2026, from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that Nasdaq Staff has determined to delist the Company’s securities from Nasdaq.
 
On November 11, 2025, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) issued an order suspending trading in the Company’s securities because of potential manipulation in the securities of the Company effectuated through recommendations made to investors by unknown persons via social media to purchase, hold, and/or sell the securities of the Company and to send screenshots documenting their transaction, which appear to be designed to artificially inflate the price and trading volume of the securities of Company (the SEC’s order can be found at https://www.sec.gov/files/litigation/suspensions/2025/34-104176.pdf). Following this, Nasdaq halted trading in the Company’s securities and has now determined to delist the Company’s securities pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule IM-5101-4.
 
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5101 provides Nasdaq with “broad discretionary authority over the initial and continued listing of securities in Nasdaq in order to maintain the quality of and public confidence in its market, to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, and to protect investors and the public interest.” Listing Rule IM-5101-4 further expands on this authority, allowing Nasdaq “to exercise discretion to delist a company from Nasdaq based on the potential for one or more third parties to engage in misconduct impacting a company’s securities where the SEC has implemented a temporary trading suspension.”
 
Following the Notice, the Company has and will continue to consult with its legal counsel and other advisors to evaluate its next steps and will make further announcements as and when appropriate. Unless the Company requests an appeal of this determination by November 5, 2026, trading of the Company’s securities will be suspended at the opening of business on November 9, 2026. Nasdaq will subsequently file a Form 25-NSE with the SEC, which will remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market.
 
To date, Nasdaq has not communicated any findings or determination that the Company engaged in wrongdoing in connection with the recent trading activity in the Company’s securities or otherwise. The delisting determination does not affect the Company’s ongoing business operations or financial condition, and the Company will continue to conduct its business in the ordinary course.
 
Following the removal from The Nasdaq Stock Market, the Company’s securities may be eligible for trading in the over-the-counter (OTC) market. However, there can be no assurance that an active or sustained secondary trading market will develop for the Company’s securities.

“During the third quarter, we continued to make progress across our Vistance Networks business, supported by ongoing DOCSIS 4.0 deployments and adoption of our next-generation intelligent amplifiers. While memory chip pressures and customer deployment timing continue to impact near-term performance, we remain confident in the long-term demand for our products and opportunities to expand our portfolio. We are also pleased with the significant value we have returned to shareholders following the divestitures of our CCS and RUCKUS businesses. Including our recently announced $1.50 per share special distribution, we will have distributed $16.50 per share in 2026. As of October 30, 2026, we repurchased $225 million of stock under our existing stock repurchase programs. With a strong, debt-free balance sheet, we are well positioned to continue investing in our business and creating additional value,” said Chuck Treadway, President and Chief Executive Officer.

“Aurora Networks delivered $320 million of revenue and $57 million of Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter. This was generally aligned with our expectations as memory chip pricing and stranded costs were more than offset by a lower variable compensation. Looking ahead, we are revising our full-year adjusted EBITDA guidance to $180 million to $200 million, primarily resulting from customer demand being pushed out into 2027. We remain confident in the underlying demand for our products and are focused on managing costs, maintaining financial flexibility and positioning the business to capitalize on longer-term network upgrade opportunities,” said Kyle Lorentzen, Chief Financial Officer.

Through October 30th, the Company has utilized $225 million of the authorization to buy back 28.9 million shares or approximately 13% of the outstanding shares at the end of the second quarter, inclusive of shares that vested with the Ruckus transaction in the third quarter.

NM – Not meaningful

(1) Reflects the results of Aurora, our reportable segment, which represent substantially all of our net sales and exclude general corporate costs that were previously allocated to the divested RUCKUS and CCS segments because they were not directly attributable to the divested segments.

(2) Includes certain revenues reflected within continuing operations related to products associated with businesses affected by prior divestiture transactions. Such amounts continue to be reported within continuing operations based on the terms of the underlying transactions.

(3) Primarily reflects general corporate costs that were previously allocated to the divested RUCKUS and CCS segments. These indirect expenses have been classified as continuing operations because they were not directly attributable to the divested segments. The costs previously allocated to the CCS segment were reallocated to our remaining segments and partially offset by income under the Amphenol TSA beginning in the first quarter of 2026. Beginning in the third quarter of 2026, the costs previously allocated to the RUCKUS segment were reallocated to our remaining segment and partially offset by income under the Belden TSA.

Net Sales, Cash Flow and Balance Sheet

  • Aurora net sales of $319.8 million decreased 5.3% compared with the same prior year period driven by a decrease in the legacy business, partially offset by an increase in the Access Technologies business.

  • Aurora orders increased 41% compared with the same prior year period, while backlog totaled $410 million, up 3% compared with the same prior year period.

  • GAAP cash flow used in operations in the third quarter of 2026 was $57.5 million.

  • Free cash flow used in the third quarter of 2026 was $57.7 million after adjusting operating cash flow for $0.2 million of additions to property, plant and equipment. The cash flows related to discontinued operations have not been segregated. Accordingly, this cash flow information includes the results of continuing and discontinued operations.

  • The Company ended the quarter with $683.1 million in cash and cash equivalents.

  • As of September 30, 2026, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its asset-based revolving credit facility and had availability of $158.9 million, after taking into account the borrowing base limitations and outstanding letters of credit. The Company ended the quarter with total liquidity of approximately $842.0 million.

Stock Repurchase Plan

In addition, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to an aggregate of $100 million of its outstanding shares of common stock. The $100 million repurchase authorization is in addition to the $250 million in aggregate repurchase authorizations that were previously announced by the Company. The Company may repurchase shares in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or in such other manners as determined by the Company, including through repurchase plans complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The method, timing and amount of any repurchases made under the share repurchase program will depend on a variety of factors, including capital and liquidity requirements, market conditions and alternative uses for cash. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares of common stock, and the program may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time.

Conference Call, Webcast and Investor Presentation

As previously announced, Vistance Networks will host a conference call today at 8:30 a.m. ET in which management will discuss third quarter of 2026 results. The conference call will also be webcast.

The live, listen-only audio of the call will be available through a link on the Events and Presentations page of Vistance Networks’ Investor Relations website.

A webcast replay will be archived on Vistance Networks’ website for a limited period of time following the conference call.

During the conference call, the Company may discuss and answer questions concerning business and financial developments and trends that have occurred after quarter-end. The Company’s responses to questions, as well as other matters discussed during the conference call, may contain or constitute information that has not been disclosed previously.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management believes that presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. Management further believes that these financial measures are useful in assessing Vistance Networks’ operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. Management also uses certain of these financial measures for business planning purposes and in measuring Vistance Networks’ performance relative to that of its competitors. Management believes these financial measures are commonly used by investors to evaluate Vistance Networks’ performance and that of its competitors. However, Vistance Networks’ use of certain non-GAAP terms may vary from that of others in its industry. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flow from operations or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP as measures of operating performance, operating cash flows or liquidity. A reconciliation of each of the non-GAAP measures discussed herein to their most comparable GAAP measures is below.

(1) Reflects the results of Aurora, our reportable segment, which represent substantially all of our net sales and exclude general corporate costs that were previously allocated to the divested RUCKUS and CCS segments because they were not directly attributable to the divested segments.

(2) Includes certain revenues reflected within continuing operations related to products associated with businesses affected by prior divestiture transactions. Such amounts continue to be reported within continuing operations based on the terms of the underlying transactions.

(3) See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” above.

(4) Primarily reflects general corporate costs that were previously allocated to the divested RUCKUS and CCS segments. These indirect expenses have been classified as continuing operations because they were not directly attributable to the divested segments. The costs previously allocated to the CCS segment were reallocated to our remaining segments and partially offset by income under the Amphenol transition service agreement (TSA) beginning in the first quarter of 2026. Beginning in the third quarter of 2026, the costs previously allocated to the RUCKUS segment were reallocated to our remaining segment and partially offset by income under the Belden TSA.

Agility Becomes First U.S. Publicly Listed Pure-Play Humanoid Robotics Company, Begins Trading Today on Nasdaq as AGLT

Commercial Deployments with Leading Global Enterprises and More Than $300 Million in Multi-Year Digit 5 Orders Position Agility for Its Next Phase of Growth

Business Combination and Related Financings Provide Approximately $465 Million in Gross Capital to Support Commercial Scale

SALEM, Ore., Nov. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Agility® (Nasdaq: AGLT), a leading humanoid robotics and physical AI company, today became the first U.S. publicly listed pure-play humanoid robotics company with proven, active commercial deployments. Agility’s common stock and warrants will begin trading today on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbols “AGLT” and “AGLTW,” respectively, following completion of its previously announced business combination with Churchill Capital Corp XI. The business combination and related financings represent approximately $465 million in gross capital raised before transaction expenses.

Agility enters the public markets with a differentiated foundation for commercializing humanoid robotics: nearly three years of real-world deployment experience, more than 65,000 hours of operation, committed multi-year customer orders and U.S.-based infrastructure designed to manufacture, deploy and support robots at scale. The company has secured more than $300 million in committed multi-year orders for Digit® 5, its next-generation humanoid robot, subject to contractual milestones, product features and specifications.

“Today marks an important milestone for Agility, but the bigger story is what it means for the future of work,” said Peggy Johnson, CEO of Agility Robotics. “AI is moving beyond the digital world and into the physical world, creating new possibilities for how people and machines work together. At Agility, that future is already taking shape. Digit is doing real work in customer operations today, taking on repetitive, physically demanding tasks. Becoming a public company gives us access to more resources to help accelerate that progress, bring intelligent robots to more workplaces and help build a future where people and robots accomplish more together.”

Agility’s flagship humanoid robot, Digit, is designed to perform useful work in environments built for people, helping businesses address persistent labor shortages and automate repetitive, physically demanding tasks. Digit is already operating with leading global enterprises including GXO, Schaeffler and Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada.

The company’s next-generation Digit 5 platform builds on years of real-world customer experience and is designed for cooperatively safe work, with the goal of enabling robots and people to operate in closer proximity. Digit 5 is designed to perform a broader range of industrial tasks, supported by Agility’s proprietary robotics and physical AI technology, safety systems and Agility Arc™ enterprise software platform.

Recent milestones demonstrate Agility’s progress toward broader commercial adoption:

  • Growing Commercial Deployments and Pipeline: Agility recently expanded its partnership with GXO to deploy Digit at two additional U.S. logistics facilities in early 2027, building on the companies’ pioneering commercial deployment in Georgia, where Digit has moved more than 100,000 totes. The company’s growing customer base also includes AGCO, which has signed a commercial agreement for a Digit pilot expected to begin in 2027, and three additional enterprise manufacturing customers participating in paid programs focused on specific manufacturing applications: a major global automaker, one of the world’s largest automotive technology and components developers, and a leading global consumer products manufacturer. Agility also has an active pipeline of more than 30 prospective customers across industries including automotive, manufacturing, aerospace, logistics, consumer products and defense.
  • Strong Demand for Digit 5: Digit 5, unveiled in September 2026, has received more than $300 million in committed multi-year orders subject to satisfaction of contractual milestones, product features and specifications. The new platform incorporates significant advances developed in response to years of customer feedback. These include proprietary cycloidal actuator technology engineered to support repetitive lifting of up to 50 pounds, interchangeable end effectors and expanded manipulation capabilities designed to automate a broader range of industrial workflows. Early customer access is expected to begin in the first half of 2027, with general availability targeted for the end of 2027.
  • Advancing Safety, Physical AI and Performance: Agility continues to advance its proprietary robotics and physical AI platform, supported by collaborations with NVIDIA, FORT Robotics and Nyobolt. The company recently announced plans to standardize Digit 5’s onboard compute on NVIDIA IGX Thor and expand its integration of NVIDIA Halos safety technology. Its partnership with FORT Robotics supports the development of safety systems for industrial environments, while Nyobolt’s ultra-fast charging battery technology is designed to enable Digit 5 to recharge in just nine minutes and deliver more than 20 hours of productive work in a 24-hour day.
  • Building for Commercial Scale: Agility has invested in the U.S. infrastructure needed to manufacture, deploy and support humanoid robots at scale. This includes RoboFab®, its 70,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Salem, Oregon, designed for annual production capacity of up to 10,000 robots; its Fremont, California, facility in Silicon Valley focused on hardware and physical AI development; and its recently announced 50,000-square-foot Pittsburgh expansion, which will strengthen software, AI, deployment and customer support capabilities. These investments are complemented by Agility Arc™, its cloud-based platform for managing robot fleets and integrating them into customer operations.

The business combination and related financings raised approximately $465 million in gross capital before transaction expenses, including proceeds from a private investment in public equity (PIPE) led by Foxconn and $100 million of equity funding received prior to closing. Agility intends to use the proceeds to support fulfillment of customer orders, expand commercial deployments, scale Digit production and continue advancing its integrated robotics and physical AI platform.

About Agility Robotics, Inc. (Nasdaq: AGLT)

Headquartered in Salem, Oregon, with offices in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Fremont, California, Agility’s mission is to build robot partners that augment the human workforce. Our groundbreaking general-purpose humanoid robot, Digit, is the first multi-purpose, human-centric robot that is Made for Work® and commercially deployed today.

CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Xeris Biopharma Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: XERS), a leading endocrine and rare disease biopharmaceutical company committed to helping people realize better lives through the development and commercialization of innovative medicines, today announced its financial results and business highlights for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

“As a biopharmaceutical leader in endocrine and rare diseases, our strong third quarter performance puts us on a new growth curve that is accelerating our Company’s near-term outlook, and we are now on a path to reach more than $1 billion in total revenue in 2030,” said John Shannon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Xeris. “This new trajectory reflects growth from the full enterprise. Net product revenue in the third quarter grew more than 43% year-over-year, led by Recorlev, where our expanded commercial team moved from build to yield and delivered record referrals and new patient starts. We now see Recorlev on a path to nearly $1 billion in annual net revenue three to four years sooner than previously expected.”

Shannon continued, “We also continued to advance XP-8121 following our comprehensive program overview in September. We remain on track to initiate Cornerstone, our pivotal Phase 3 study, by year-end. Given the strong momentum across Recorlev, Gvoke, and Keveyis, we are raising our full-year total revenue guidance to $395–$405 million.”

Total revenue for the third quarter of 2026 was $107.2 million, an increase of 44% compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily driven by increased patient demand for Recorlev. Gvoke delivered stronger-than-historical back-to-school prescription demand in the third quarter, which was offset by a one-time ($4 million) gross-to-net adjustment.

Gross margin improved to 88% in the third quarter of 2026, up from 85% in the same period last year. The improvement was primarily driven by a favorable product mix.

Research and development (R&D) expenses increased by $3.6 million, or 48%, in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the same period last year. The increase in R&D expenses primarily reflects spend to support XP-8121.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased by $17.6 million, or 38%, in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the same period last year. This increase mainly reflects higher personnel-related expenses to support the commercial enterprise, including the Recorlev expansion.

Net income for the third quarter of 2026 was $11.3 million, compared to net income of $0.6 million in the same period last year.

Adjusted EBITDA1for the third quarter of 2026 was $30.8 million, an improvement of $13.3 million compared to the same period last year.

Total revenue was $282.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of 37% compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily driven by increased patient demand for Recorlev.

Gross margin improved to 87%, up from 84% in the same period last year. The improvement was primarily driven by favorable product mix.

Research and development (R&D) expenses increased $7.2 million or 31% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same period last year. The increase in R&D expenses primarily reflects spend to support XP-8121.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased $43.4 million or 32% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same period last year. This increase mainly reflects higher personnel-related expense to support the commercial enterprise, including the Recorlev expansion.

Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, was $17.6 million, compared to a net loss of $10.5 million in the same period last year. The loss was due to a one-time, non-cash charge of approximately $30.8 million in the second quarter of 2026, reflecting the increase in fair value as a result of entering into the 2028 Convertible Notes exchange agreements.

Adjusted EBITDA1for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, was $65.1 million, an improvement of $30.8 million compared to the same period last year.

Total Shares Outstanding were 182,700,038 at October 30, 2026.

Key Business Highlights

  • 2028 Convertible Notes Fully Retired: On July 15, 2026, Xeris completed the retirement of all of its 8.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 through a combination of cash and the issuance of shares of common stock, eliminating approximately $34 million of debt and approximately $3 million in annual interest expense. No 2028 Convertible Notes remain outstanding, and there were no charges related to the notes in the third quarter of 2026.
  • XP-8121 Program Overview: On September 9, 2026, Xeris hosted a program overview detailing the comprehensive clinical development program for XP-8121, its investigational once-weekly subcutaneous levothyroxine for hypothyroidism. The pivotal Phase 3 Cornerstone study is designed to demonstrate that XP-8121 is therapeutically equivalent to daily oral levothyroxine and is expected to enroll 500 adults and adolescents with well-controlled hypothyroidism at more than 50 U.S. sites, randomized 1:1 for 54 weeks. The program also includes Capstone, a pediatric study; Touchstone, a study in patients with inconsistent thyroid control despite oral therapy; and a real-world evidence program. Xeris remains on track to initiate Cornerstone by year-end 2026, with topline data expected in late 2028 and potential approval and launch in 2030. A replay and accompanying materials are available under the “Events” section of the Xeris Investor Relations website.

  • Scientific Presentations: Xeris presented real-world data at the 2026 Breakthrough T1D Clinical & Research Congress on October 9, examining healthcare provider awareness of American Diabetes Association guidelines for prescribing ready-to-use glucagon versus actual prescribing practices. The presentation, titled “Ensuring Readiness: A Case For Proactive Glucagon Prescribing For Patients At Increased Risk of Severe Hypoglycemia,” highlighted the unmet clinical need and opportunity to increase adoption of ready-to-use glucagon products. At the 21st Annual Cardiometabolic Health Congress on October 15–16, Xeris presented a case study titled “Discontinuation of Antihypertensives and Insulin in a Patient with Difficult-to-Control Type 2 Diabetes and Hypertension After Treatment With Levoketoconazole,” demonstrating cortisol normalization accompanied by improvements in multiple cardiometabolic parameters.

1 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the corresponding financial tables at the end of this press release for definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes financial results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and also certain historical non-GAAP financial measures, namely Adjusted EBITDA. This non-GAAP financial measure is not meant to be considered in isolation and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, and was not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures are not an alternative for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the calculation of the non-GAAP financial measure included herein may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed in conjunction with actual GAAP results, provides investors with a more meaningful understanding of the Company’s ongoing and projected operating performance, exclusive of factors that do not directly affect what the Company considers to be its core operating performance, as well as unusual events. The Company believes this non-GAAP financial measure helps indicate underlying trends in the Company’s business and is important in comparing current results with prior period results and understanding expected operating performance. Also, management uses this non-GAAP financial measure to establish budgets and operational goals, and to manage the Company’s business and evaluate its performance. In addition, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is important in evaluating the administrative costs of operating the Company’s business.

Adjusted EBITDA is GAAP net income (loss) before income tax (benefit) expense, less interest and other income, plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense, share-based compensation and debt refinancing fees or extinguishment losses.

ARKO Corp. Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results and Raises Lower End of the Full Year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA Guidance

RICHMOND, Va., Nov. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ARKO Corp. (Nasdaq: ARKO) (“ARKO” or the “Company”), one of the largest operators of convenience stores in the United States, ranked by store count and one of the largest fuel wholesalers in North America, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, and raised lower end of its full year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance.

Third Quarter and 2026 Key Highlights (vs. Year-Ago Period)
1,2

  • Net income for the quarter was $14.3 million compared to $13.5 million for the prior year period, and net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, was $18.1 million compared to $20.9 million for the prior year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $75.7 million, compared to $75.2 million for the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 increased 8.5% to $198.6 million, compared to $183.0 million for the prior year period.
  • Retained-store portfolio, consisting of stores the Company does not expect to convert to dealer locations, delivered merchandise sales growth, excluding cigarettes, of 0.8% compared to the prior year quarter.
  • Merchandise margin increased 110 basis points to 34.8% from 33.7% in the prior year quarter, marking the 12th consecutive quarter of year-over-year merchandise margin improvement.
  • Same store retail fuel margin for the quarter increased 4.6 cents per gallon to 48.8 cents per gallon from 44.2 cents per gallon in the prior year period, while same store fuel contribution increased 2.7% from the prior year period.
  • Raises lower end of the full year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance and now expects 2026 Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $250 million to $265 million.
  • Repurchased $62.1 million principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 5.125% senior notes, for $56.8 million, further strengthening the Company’s balance sheet and financial flexibility.
  • Post quarter-end declared quarterly dividend of $0.03 per share of common stock, to be paid on December 3, 2026.
  • On August 4, 2026, the Company’s subsidiary ARKO Petroleum Corp. (Nasdaq: APC) (“APC”), entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire the business of U.S. Petroleum Partners, LLC (“USPP”), a strategic transaction that is expected to meaningfully expand APC’s scale and infrastructure and reflects the disciplined execution of the growth strategy outlined at the time of its initial public offering.

“We delivered solid third quarter results and continued to make meaningful progress transforming ARKO into a more focused, resilient and cash generative business,” said Arie Kotler, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of ARKO. “Through the first nine months of 2026, Adjusted EBITDA increased 8.5% to $199 million. Importantly, our retained-store portfolio generated positive merchandise sales, excluding cigarettes, for each quarter this year, while merchandise margins continued to expand year-over-year for the 12th consecutive quarter. These results reinforce our confidence in our retail transformation and the investments we are making in our core company-operated portfolio.”

Mr. Kotler continued: “Our diversified platform also continues to perform well. Wholesale and Fleet Fueling delivered solid results, and the expected acquisition of USPP’s business would meaningfully expand APC’s scale and its capabilities across the fuel value chain. We believe the combination of continued progress in our retail transformation, disciplined capital allocation and APC’s continued growth positions ARKO to generate stronger and more durable cash flow over time. Based on our year-to-date performance, current business trends and the expected closing of the USPP acquisition, we are raising the low end of our full year Adjusted EBITDA guidance and now expect full year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $250 million to $265 million.”

2 All figures for fuel costs, fuel contribution and fuel margin per gallon exclude the fixed margin or fixed fee paid to the GPMP segment for the cost of fuel.

1 Same store is a common metric used in the convenience store industry. The Company considers a store a same store beginning in the first quarter in which the store had a full quarter of activity in the prior year. Refer to Use of Non-GAAP Measures below for discussion of this measure.  
2 Calculated as fuel revenue less fuel costs; excludes the fixed margin or fixed fee paid to the GPMP segment for the cost of fuel.  
3 Calculated as fuel contribution divided by fuel gallons sold.  
4 Calculated as merchandise revenue less merchandise costs.  
5 Calculated as merchandise contribution divided by merchandise revenue.  

For the third quarter of 2026, merchandise contribution decreased by $9.5 million, or 7.2%, compared to the third quarter of 2025, while merchandise margin increased by 110 basis points to 34.8% for the third quarter of 2026 compared to 33.7% for the third quarter of 2025. The decrease in merchandise contribution was primarily due to a $10.3 million decrease related to retail stores closed or converted to dealer locations. Same store merchandise contribution increased by $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025.

For the third quarter of 2026, same store fuel contribution increased $2.6 million, or 2.7%, with same store fuel margin per gallon for the third quarter of 2026 increasing 4.6 cents per gallon to 48.8 cents per gallon compared to 44.2 for the third quarter of 2025, primarily a result of significant volatility in the fuel market due to the geopolitical environment. Total fuel contribution decreased by $3.9 million, or 3.8%, compared to the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to a $7.3 million decrease in fuel contribution related to retail stores closed or converted to dealer locations compared to the third quarter of 2025, partially offset by the increase in same store fuel contribution.

For the third quarter of 2026, site operating expenses decreased by $12.5 million, or 7.3%, compared to the third quarter of 2025 primarily due to $19.4 million of reduced expenses related to retail stores closed or converted to dealer locations, partially offset by an increase in same store operating expenses of $6.0 million, or 4.0%, primarily due to $3.1 million of higher credit card fees associated with elevated fuel prices, as well as higher personnel costs, utilities and rent.

For the third quarter of 2026, the Company continued execution of its transformation plan, including converting 17 retail stores to dealer locations during the quarter, bringing total conversions to 488 since the dealerization program began in 2024. The Company has an aggregate of approximately 55 additional sites committed under letter of intent, under contract or already converted since quarter end. The Company expects to continue to convert a meaningful number of additional stores and expects to be largely complete by the end of 2027.

The Company continues to invest in its retail stores, including remodels, fas craves food and beverage offerings, retail new-to-industry (“NTI”) stores, technology and automated ordering. Since the launch of its new format fas craves flagship location in June 2025, the Company has been rolling out the new format across its retail store base. In 2026, the Company expects to complete more than 25 store remodels, of which 11 have been completed to date, all which feature the fas craves food and beverage elements. During the first nine months of 2026, the Company opened three NTI retail stores, and plans to open four NTI Dunkin’ stores between now and early 2027.

Note: Comparable wholesale sites exclude retail stores converted to dealer locations until the first quarter in which these dealer locations had a full quarter of wholesale activity in the prior year. Refer to Use of Non-GAAP Measures below.  

For the third quarter of 2026, wholesale operating income increased by $1.7 million compared to the third quarter of 2025 primarily as a result of additional operating income from retail sites converted to dealer locations, which was partially offset by reduced operating income at comparable wholesale sites.

For the third quarter of 2026, fuel contribution increased by $1.7 million compared to the third quarter of 2025. Fuel contribution for the third quarter of 2026 at fuel supply locations increased by $1.4 million compared to the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to $1.5 million of incremental contribution from retail sites converted to dealer locations. Fuel contribution for the third quarter of 2026 at consignment agent locations increased $0.3 million compared to the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to $0.4 million of incremental contribution from retail sites converted to dealer locations.

Fuel margin per gallon at fuel supply locations increased 0.9 cents per gallon compared to the third quarter of 2025, and fuel margin per gallon at consignment agent locations increased 2.8 cents per gallon compared to the third quarter of 2025, both primarily due to increased prompt pay discounts related to higher fuel costs.

For the third quarter of 2026, other revenues, net increased by $3.5 million, and site operating expenses increased by $3.8 million, in each case compared to the third quarter of 2025, resulting primarily from retail stores converted to dealer locations.

At proprietary cardlocks, fuel contribution increased by $0.6 million, and fuel margin per gallon also increased for the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025. At third-party cardlock locations, fuel contribution increased $0.3 million, and fuel margin per gallon also increased for the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025. These increases primarily resulted from significant volatility in the fuel market due to the geopolitical environment.

The Company opened five new fleet fueling locations in the first nine months of 2026 and two locations were added in October 2026. Currently, the Company has an additional 16 locations in various stages of planning and development, reflecting the attractive, durable cash flow profile of its fleet fueling business. 

ARKO Petroleum Corp. Strategic Acquisition Transaction Announcement Highlights

  • On August 4, 2026, APC entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire the business of USPP, a vertically integrated fuel supply and distribution platform serving customers throughout the Great Lakes region. The strategic transaction would meaningfully expand APC’s scale and infrastructure and reflects the disciplined execution of the growth strategy outlined at the time of its initial public offering.
  • The acquisition is expected to add approximately 280 million gallons of annual fuel volume, representing an approximately 14% increase to APC’s trailing 12-month fuel volume, for the period ended September 30, 2026, across approximately 400 dealer locations and to meaningfully increase APC’s commercial and operational scale.
  • The acquisition is expected to be accretive, contribute approximately $30 million of annualized Adjusted EBITDA and enhance Discretionary Cash Flow, further diversifying APC’s earnings and strengthening its cash-generation capability.
  • The addition of two fuel terminals and expanded transportation capabilities is expected to enhance APC’s vertical integration, broaden its participation across the fuel value chain and create opportunities to increase terminal utilization, improve transportation efficiency, generate additional fixed-margin and fee-based income, and capture incremental margin.
  • The consideration at closing will consist of $205 million in cash plus the value of inventory at closing. Additionally, at closing APC will issue $30 million in APC Class A common stock that will be held in escrow and released to the seller subject to the acquired business achieving certain EBITDA-based financial targets in first four full quarters after closing.
  • APC continues to work toward the closing of the transaction, which is expected to occur during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026.

Additional details regarding the transaction, including the strategic and financial highlights, can be found in a separate press release and investor presentation issued by APC on August 6, 2026, both available on the Investor Relations section of APC’s website at www.arkopetroleum.com.

Full Year 2026 Guidance

Based on its performance through the first nine months of 2026, current business trends and the expected closing of the USPP acquisition, the Company is raising the lower end of its full year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance. The Company now expects full year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $250 million and $265 million, compared with its previous guidance of $245 million and $265 million. The Company is also increasing its outlook for average annual retail fuel margin to a range of 47.0 cents per gallon to 49.0 cents per gallon, with higher margins expected to offset anticipated lower retail fuel volumes. 

The Company is not providing guidance on net income at this time due to the unavailability of certain required inputs that are not available without unreasonable efforts, including depreciation and amortization related to its capital allocation as part of its focus on strategic and organic growth.

Conference Call and Webcast Details

The Company will host a conference call today, November 5, 2026, to discuss these results at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time. Investors and analysts interested in participating in the live call can dial 877-605-1792 or 201-689-8728.

A simultaneous, live webcast will also be available on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at https://www.arkocorp.com/news-events/ir-calendar. The webcast will be archived for 30 days.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document includes certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements may address, among other things, the Company’s expected financial and operational results and the related assumptions underlying its expected results. These forward-looking statements are distinguished by use of words such as “accretive,” “anticipate,” “aim,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “guidance,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” and the negative of these terms, and similar references to future periods. These statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to, among other things, changes in economic, business and market conditions; the Company’s ability to successfully integrate business that it may acquire, including the business of USPP; the Company’s ability to achieve the benefits that it expects to realize as a result of its acquisitions, including the business of USPP; the potential negative impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations if it fails to achieve the benefits that it expects to realize as a result of its business acquisitions, including the business of USPP; liabilities of the businesses that the Company acquires that are not known to the Company; the Company’s ability to maintain the listing of its common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market; changes in its strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans; expansion plans and opportunities; changes in the markets in which the Company competes; changes in applicable laws or regulations, including those relating to environmental matters; market conditions and global and economic factors beyond its control; the success of the Company’s transformation plan, including the dealerization of retail stores; the impact of APC operating as a public company; and the outcome of any known or unknown litigation and regulatory proceedings. Detailed information about these factors and additional important factors can be found in the documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and Form 8-K. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statements were made. The Company does not undertake an obligation to update forward-looking information, except to the extent required by applicable law.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

The Company discloses certain measures on a “same store basis,” which is a non-GAAP measure. Information disclosed on a “same store basis” excludes the results of any store that is not a “same store” for the applicable period. A store is considered a same store beginning in the first quarter in which the store had a full quarter of activity in the prior year. The Company believes that this information is useful for its investors, securities analysts, and other interested parties by providing greater comparability regarding its ongoing operating performance. Neither this measure nor those described below should be considered an alternative to measurements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).

The Company discloses certain measures on a “comparable wholesale sites” basis, which is a non-GAAP measure. Information disclosed on a “comparable wholesale sites” basis excludes wholesale sites added through retail stores converted to dealer locations until the first quarter in which these sites had a full quarter of wholesale activity in the prior year. The Company believes that this information is useful for its investors, securities analysts, and other interested parties by providing greater comparability regarding its ongoing operating performance.

The Company defines EBITDA as net income including net income attributable to non-controlling interests before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA by excluding the gain or loss on disposal of assets, impairment charges, acquisition and divestiture costs, share-based compensation expense, other non-cash items, certain litigation expenses, and other unusual or non-recurring charges. Both EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures.

The Company uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for operational and financial decision-making and believes these measures are useful in evaluating its performance because they eliminate certain items that it does not consider indicators of its operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also used by many of its investors, securities analysts, and other interested parties in evaluating its operational and financial performance across reporting periods. The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors by allowing an understanding of key measures that it uses internally for operational decision-making, budgeting, evaluating acquisition targets, and assessing its operating performance.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to any financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP, including net income. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation, or as substitutes for the analysis of its results as reported under GAAP. The Company strongly encourages investors to review its financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, same store measures, comparable wholesale sites, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as defined by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. It therefore may not be possible to compare the Company’s use of these non-GAAP financial measures with those used by other companies.

Reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP measures related to the business of USPP following its acquisition included in this press release to the corresponding GAAP financial measures are not included due to variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections, particularly in light of potential changes in USPP’s business following its acquisition, as well as, because certain information is not currently ascertainable or accessible, and because not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures is available to the Company without unreasonable efforts. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, nor can the Company accurately predict all the components of the applicable non-GAAP financial measures and reconciling adjustments thereto; accordingly, the corresponding GAAP measures may be materially different than the non-GAAP measures. Such forward-looking information is also subject to uncertainty and various risks, including those set forth in the risk factors discussed above, and there can be no assurance that any forecasted results or conditions will actually be achieved.

MILWAUKEE–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Rockwell Automation, Inc. (NYSE: ROK) today reported fiscal 2026 fourth quarter and full year results and introduced fiscal 2027 guidance.

“Rockwell delivered a strong finish to a great year, with broad-based topline growth, margin expansion, and double-digit earnings growth. Our results underscore the differentiation of our strategy and operating model, as we continue to gain share, strengthen our leadership in core markets, and expand our position in high-growth areas including semiconductor and data centers,” said Blake Moret, Chairman and CEO.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company received $103 million of International Emergency Economic Powers Act tariff refunds (IEEPA tariff refunds) and $5 million of related interest, the benefits of which are reported as a reduction of Cost of sales and an increase in Interest income in our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2026. In addition, the Company approved and communicated a refund program for customers (customer tariff refund program) that paid price increases on purchases of products that were impacted by IEEPA tariffs. The Company recognized an accrual of $85 million for estimated refunds to be issued to customers as a reduction of sales in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2026. The impacts on Sales and Cost of sales are reported as unallocated in the segment Sales and Earnings Information. The after-tax net impact of IEEPA tariff refunds, including interest, the customer tariff refund program, and related non-recurring charges reported in unallocated, of $0.11 is included in diluted EPS and Adjusted EPS.

Fiscal Q4 2026 Financial Results

Fiscal 2026 fourth quarter sales were $2,332 million, up 1% compared to $2,316 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. Organic sales increased 3%. Divestitures decreased sales by (2)%. Reported and Organic sales were reduced by ~(4) percentage points from the customer tariff refund program.

Pre-tax margin was 18.6% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 2.7% in the same period last year. The increase was primarily driven by the prior year non-cash impairment charge related to the Sensia joint venture and an accounting change and accrual increase for legacy asbestos liabilities, higher sales volume, the net impact of IEEPA tariff refund related items, favorable mix, and the margin benefit of the Sensia joint venture dissolution, partially offset by a charitable contribution, higher compensation, and restructuring charges. Enterprise operating profit was $572 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, up 16% compared to $493 million in the same period of fiscal 2025. Enterprise operating margin was 24.5% in the fourth quarter compared to 21.3% a year ago. The increase in Enterprise operating margin was driven by higher sales volume, the net impact of IEEPA tariff refund related items, favorable mix, and the margin benefit of the Sensia joint venture dissolution, partially offset by higher compensation.

Fiscal 2026 fourth quarter net income attributable to Rockwell Automation was $346 million or $3.11 per share, compared to $138 million or $1.23 per share in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. The increases in net income attributable to Rockwell Automation and diluted EPS were primarily due to higher pre-tax income. Fiscal 2026 fourth quarter Adjusted EPS was $3.88, up 16% compared to $3.34 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to higher sales volume and Enterprise operating profit.

Cash flow generated by operating activities in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 was $680 million, compared to $454 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. Free cash flow was $602 million, compared to $405 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025.

The increase was primarily due to the prior year non-cash impairment charge related to the Sensia joint venture and an accounting change and accrual increase for legacy asbestos liabilities, higher sales volume, price realization, favorable mix, productivity, and the net impact of IEEPA tariff refund related items, partially offset by higher compensation, a charitable contribution, and restructuring charges.

The increases in net income attributable to Rockwell Automation and diluted EPS were primarily due to higher pre-tax income. Fiscal 2026 Adjusted EPS was $13.42, up 27% compared to $10.53 in fiscal 2025. The increase in Adjusted EPS was primarily due to higher Enterprise operating profit.

Cash flow generated by operating activities in fiscal year 2026 was $1,958 million, compared to $1,544 million in fiscal 2025. Free cash flow was $1,701 million compared to $1,358 million last year.

Supplemental Information

ARR – Organic ARR grew 5% compared to the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025.

Corporate and Other – Fiscal 2026 fourth quarter Corporate and other expense was $26 million compared to $27 million in the fourth quarter of 2025. Corporate and other expense was $116 million for the full fiscal year 2026 compared to $125 million in fiscal 2025.

Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets – Fiscal 2026 fourth quarter Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets expense was $29 million, down $6 million from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. Full year fiscal 2026 Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets expense was $120 million, down $21 million from fiscal 2025. The decreases were primarily due to the dissolution of the Sensia joint venture.

Restructuring charges – Fiscal 2026 fourth quarter and full year restructuring charges were $25 million. Fiscal 2025 fourth quarter and full year included an accrual reversal of $5 million.

Charitable Contribution – In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 the Company made a $50 million contribution to the Rockwell Automation Charitable Corporation. The contribution optimizes tax benefits and provides funding for philanthropic priorities.

Tax – On a GAAP basis, the effective tax rate in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 was 20.1% compared to 52.4% in the fourth quarter of 2025. The effective tax rate for the full fiscal year 2026 was 16.5% compared to 18.3% in fiscal 2025. The Adjusted Effective Tax Rate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 was 20.9% compared to 17.8% in the fourth quarter of 2025. The Adjusted Effective Tax Rate for the full fiscal year 2026 was 19.6% compared to 17.1% in fiscal 2025. The decreases in the GAAP effective tax rate for the fourth quarter and full year were primarily due to the absence of certain Sensia-related tax impacts from 2025 and higher discrete tax benefits in 2026, including a benefit related to the dissolution of the Sensia joint venture, partially offset by BEPS Pillar Two minimum taxes. The increases in the Adjusted Effective Tax Rate were primarily due to BEPS Pillar Two minimum taxes, partially offset by higher discrete tax benefits.

Share Repurchases – The Company repurchased approximately 1.2 million shares of its common stock at a cost of $500 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026. For the full fiscal year 2026, the Company repurchased 3.1 million shares of its common stock at a cost of $1,254 million.

Definitions

Non-GAAP Measures – Organic sales, Enterprise operating profit, Enterprise operating margin, Adjusted Income, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate, free cash flow, free cash flow conversion, Adjusted ROIC, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures that are reconciled to GAAP measures in the attachments to this release.

Total ARR – Annual recurring revenue (ARR) is a key metric that enables measurement of progress in growing our recurring revenue business. It represents the annual contract value of all active recurring revenue contracts at any point in time. Recurring revenue is defined as a revenue stream that is contractual, typically for a period of 12 months or more, and has a high probability of renewal. The probability of renewal is based on historical renewal experience of the individual revenue streams, or management’s best estimates if historical renewal experience is not available. Total ARR growth is calculated as the dollar change in ARR, adjusted to exclude the effects of currency, divided by ARR as of the prior period. The effects of currency translation are excluded by calculating Total ARR on a constant currency basis. Total ARR includes acquisitions even if there was no comparable ARR in the prior period. We believe that Total ARR provides useful information to investors because it reflects our recurring revenue performance period over period including the effect of acquisitions. Our measure of ARR may be different from measures used by other companies. Because ARR is based on annual contract value, it does not represent revenue recognized during a particular reporting period or revenue to be recognized in future reporting periods and is not intended to be a substitute for revenue, contract liabilities, or backlog.

Organic ARR – Organic annual recurring revenue is Total ARR that excludes comparable ARR in the prior period for the divested businesses.

(1) Includes an $85 million reduction of sales for the customer tariff refund program, a $103 million reduction of cost of sales for IEEPA tariff refunds received, and $8 million of related non-recurring charges.

(2) Enterprise operating profit and Enterprise operating margin are non-GAAP financial measures. We exclude from income before income taxes and pre-tax margin, non-operating pension and postretirement benefit credit (cost), amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets, net legacy asbestos and environmental charges, gain or loss on fair value of investments, restructuring charges aligned with enterprise-wide strategic initiatives, charitable contributions, gain on dissolution of Sensia, net of transaction costs, and interest expense, net because we do not consider these items to be directly related to the operating performance of our enterprise. We believe Enterprise operating profit and Enterprise operating margin are useful to investors as measures of operating performance. We use these measures to monitor and evaluate the profitability of our operating enterprise. Our measures of Enterprise operating profit and Enterprise operating margin may be different from measures used by other companies.

(3) Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles excludes amortization of internally developed and capitalized intangible software products. See Other Supplemental Information for our presentation and reconciliation by segment.

(4) Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP earnings measure. See Adjusted Income, Adjusted EPS, and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate Reconciliation for more information on this non-GAAP measure.

Organic Sales

 

We translate sales of subsidiaries operating outside of the United States using exchange rates effective during the respective period. Therefore, changes in currency exchange rates affect our reported sales. Sales by acquired businesses also affect our reported sales. We believe that organic sales, defined as sales excluding the effects of acquisitions and changes in currency exchange rates, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, provides useful information to investors because it reflects regional and operating segment performance from the activities of our businesses without the effect of acquisitions and changes in currency exchange rates. We use organic sales as one measure to monitor and evaluate our regional and operating segment performance. When we acquire businesses, we exclude sales in the current period for which there are no comparable sales in the prior period. We determine the effect of changes in currency exchange rates by translating the respective period’s sales using the same currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior year. When we divest a business, we exclude sales in the prior period for which there are no comparable sales in the current period. Organic sales growth is calculated by comparing organic sales to reported sales in the prior year, excluding divestitures. We attribute sales to the geographic regions based on the country of destination.

OTHER SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

(in millions, except per share amounts and percentages)

 

Adjusted Income, Adjusted EPS, and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate

 

Adjusted Income, Adjusted EPS, and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate are non-GAAP earnings measures that exclude non-operating pension and postretirement benefit (credit) cost, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets, net legacy asbestos and environmental charges, gain or loss on fair value of investments, restructuring charges aligned with enterprise-wide strategic initiatives, gain on dissolution of Sensia, net of transaction costs, and charitable contributions, including their respective tax effects and discrete tax items. Non-operating pension and postretirement benefit cost is defined as all components of our net periodic pension and postretirement benefit cost except for service cost.

 

The Company adjusts its non-GAAP results to exclude Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets as such amounts are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. Management believes that the adjustment of Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the comparability of operating performance between periods and as compared to industry peers. Although the Company excludes Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets from its non-GAAP expenses, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of an acquisition and contribute to revenue generation.

 

In fiscal 2026, we updated the definition of our non-GAAP earnings measures to exclude both charitable contributions and the gain on the dissolution of the Sensia joint venture, net of transaction costs, and certain related tax impacts. We believe this change to our definition provides investors with a more useful presentation of our operating performance as these items and their related tax impacts are not reflective of our ongoing operations. We did not revise prior years because there were no similar amounts.

 

We believe that Adjusted Income, Adjusted EPS, and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate provide useful information to our investors about our operating performance and allow management and investors to compare our operating performance period over period. Adjusted EPS is also used as a financial measure of performance for our annual incentive compensation. Our measures of Adjusted Income, Adjusted EPS, and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate may be different from measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for Net income attributable to Rockwell Automation, diluted EPS, and effective tax rate.

 

The following are the components of operating and non-operating pension and postretirement benefit cost (credit) (in millions):

Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets, non-operating pension and postretirement benefit (credit) cost, and restructuring charges are not allocated to our operating segments because these costs are excluded from our measurement of each segment’s operating performance for internal purposes. If we were to allocate these costs, we would attribute them to each of our segments as follows (in millions):

Free Cash Flow

 

Our definition of free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, takes into consideration capital investments required to maintain the operations of our businesses and execute our strategy. In our opinion, free cash flow provides useful information to investors regarding our ability to generate cash from business operations that is available for acquisitions and other investments, service of debt principal, dividends, and share repurchases. We use free cash flow, as defined, as one measure to monitor and evaluate our performance, including as a financial measure for our annual incentive compensation. Our definition of free cash flow may be different from definitions used by other companies.

 

The following table summarizes free cash flow by quarter:

Free cash flow conversion (free cash flow as a percentage of Adjusted Income) is a non-GAAP financial measure, which reflects our ability to generate cash from the operations of our business while considering the capital investments required to maintain operations and execute our strategy as a ratio of our operating performance. We believe free cash flow conversion provides useful information to investors about our ability to convert operating performance into cash generation. Our measure of free cash flow conversion may be different from measures used by other companies.

Return On Invested Capital and Adjusted Return On Invested Capital

 

Our press release contains information regarding Adjusted ROIC, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that Adjusted ROIC is useful to investors as a measure of performance and of the effectiveness of the use of capital in our operations. We use Adjusted ROIC as one measure to monitor and evaluate our performance. Our measure of Adjusted ROIC may be different from that used by other companies. We define Adjusted ROIC as the percentage resulting from the following calculation:

 

(a) net income, before interest expense, income tax provision, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, and goodwill and intangible asset impairment divided by;

 

(b) average invested capital for the year, calculated as a five quarter rolling average using the sum of short-term debt, long-term debt, shareowners’ equity, and accumulated amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets, minus cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and long-term investments (fixed income securities), multiplied by;

 

(c) one minus the effective tax rate for the period.

ROIC and Adjusted ROIC are calculated as follows (in millions, except percentages):

Adjusted EBITDA

 

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide investors with additional insight into our financial results and operating trends by excluding non-operational, non-recurring, and non-cash items. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as measures to monitor and evaluate our performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, net, income tax provision, depreciation, amortization, impairment of intangible assets, non-operating pension and postretirement benefit credit, net legacy asbestos and environmental charges, gain or loss on fair value of investments, restructuring charges aligned with enterprise-wide strategic initiatives, gain on dissolution of Sensia, net of transaction costs, charitable contribution, and Adjusted EBITDA attributable to non-controlling interests. Our measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin may be different from those used by other companies, and Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not substitutes for net income, net profit margin, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.

FDA feedback on dose selection from the End-of-Phase 2 meeting expected in the first quarter of 2027; global Phase 3 Headliner
SM
trial initiation planned for mid-2027

Updated overall survival data from the MICVO Phase 1 monotherapy study expected in the first half of 2027

MICVO Phase 1 monotherapy data in previously treated R/M HNSCC to be presented in a late-breaking oral presentation and preclinical findings to be presented in two posters at the 38th EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium

December 2026 corporate update to outline MICVO’s development strategy in R/M HNSCC, including updated data from the first-line pembrolizumab combination study

Quarter-end cash and net upfront proceeds from October public offering expected to fund operations into the first half of 2028

BOSTON, Nov. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pyxis Oncology, Inc. (Nasdaq: PYXS), a clinical-stage company developing next-generation therapeutics for difficult-to-treat cancers, today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, and highlighted continued progress in the development of micvotabart pelidotin (MICVO).

“The September monotherapy data reinforce our confidence in MICVO’s potential to serve a significant population of patients with previously treated recurrent/metastatic head and neck cancer,” said Tom Civik, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Pyxis Oncology. “We have aligned with feedback received from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) on the design of the global Phase 3 HeadlinerSM trial and plan to initiate it in mid-2027, with FDA feedback on dose selection expected in the first quarter of 2027. We look forward to presenting MICVO monotherapy data, along with two preclinical posters, at the EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium in November, and providing a comprehensive update on our head and neck cancer strategy in December, including updated efficacy and safety data from MICVO in combination with pembrolizumab in the first-line setting. Our strengthened balance sheet positions us to execute on these priorities, continue evaluating MICVO’s broader potential and advance toward becoming a pre-commercial organization.”

Pipeline Updates

  • Pyxis Oncology has aligned with feedback from the FDA and the EMA on the design of the global pivotal Phase 3 HeadlinerSM trial, which the Company plans to initiate in mid-2027. The randomized, open-label, two-arm trial will evaluate MICVO monotherapy in patients with second-line and beyond recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (2L+ R/M HNSCC) who have progressed following treatment with both platinum-based chemotherapy and an anti-PD-1 therapy. Approximately 500 patients are expected to be randomized 1:1 to receive MICVO or investigator’s choice of cetuximab, docetaxel or methotrexate. The co-primary endpoints are overall response rate and overall survival.
  • Pyxis Oncology expects to provide an update in the first quarter of 2027 on FDA feedback regarding dose selection following its End-of-Phase 2 meeting.
  • Updated overall survival data from the ongoing MICVO monotherapy study are expected in the first half of 2027.
  • Additional data from the Phase 1/2 combination study of MICVO and Merck’s anti-PD-1 therapy KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab) in first-line (1L) R/M HNSCC, including initial durability data to inform selection of the recommended Phase 3 dose, are expected in the second half of 2027.

Reported Updated Phase 1 Monotherapy Data in 2L+ R/M HNSCC

On September 9, 2026, Pyxis Oncology announced updated data from its ongoing global Phase 1 monotherapy study of MICVO in 2L+ R/M HNSCC, as of a data cutoff of August 18, 2026.

In the efficacy-evaluable population receiving MICVO at 5.4 mg/kg intravenously once every three weeks (IV Q3W) at or below a dose cap (N=33):

  • Confirmed objective response rate was 36% (12/33), and disease control rate was 94% (31/33).
  • Responses were rapid and deep, with 75% of responders responding by the first scan at six weeks and 83% of responders achieving greater than 50% tumor reduction.
  • Median progression-free survival was 6.2 months (95% CI: 4.8–8.8), and the 12-month overall survival probability was 79% (95% CI: 58.1, 90.3). Median overall survival had not yet been reached.
  • Clinical activity was observed across HPV status and prior-treatment subgroups.

In the safety-evaluable population (N=35), no new safety signals were observed. Dose capping reduced the frequency and severity of adverse events in high body weight patients.

Planned December 2026 Corporate Update

Pyxis Oncology plans to provide a corporate update in December 2026, including:

  • A comprehensive development strategy for MICVO in R/M HNSCC, including how emerging combination data inform potential opportunities across treatment settings.
  • Updated efficacy and safety data from the ongoing Phase 1/2 combination dose-escalation study evaluating MICVO with KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab) across multiple doses in 1L R/M HNSCC.
    • The update is expected to include data from a total of at least 20 patients with 1L R/M HNSCC treated with MICVO at the 3.6 mg/kg and 4.4 mg/kg dose levels in combination with a fixed dose of 200 mg of pembrolizumab. Durability data are expected in the second half of 2027.

Corporate Updates

  • In September 2026, Pyxis Oncology appointed Tom Civik Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. Mr. Civik had served as Interim Chief Executive Officer since February 2026 and has been a member of the Board since 2021. John Flavin, co-founder and founding Chairman of Pyxis Oncology, transitioned to Lead Independent Director and continues to serve on the Board.
  • On October 1, 2026, Pyxis Oncology closed a registered public offering that generated approximately $110.0 million in upfront gross proceeds, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses. The offering also included milestone-linked warrants that, if exercised in full for cash, would provide approximately $172.6 million in additional gross proceeds, for a total of up to approximately $282.6 million. The Company believes its cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments as of September 30, 2026, together with the net upfront proceeds from the offering, will be sufficient to fund operations into the first half of 2028. Additional details about the offering and accompanying warrants are available in the Company’s October 2, 2026 announcement.
  • At the 38th EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics, taking place November 18–20, 2026, in Barcelona, Spain, Phase 1 clinical data for MICVO monotherapy in previously treated R/M HNSCC will be presented by Faye M. Johnson, M.D., Ph.D., of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, in a late-breaking oral presentation on November 19. Pyxis Oncology will also present preclinical findings in two poster presentations on November 18, further characterizing MICVO’s extracellular mechanism of action and evaluating MICVO in combination with EGFR-targeted therapy. These findings inform the Company’s broader development strategy for MICVO.
  • Tom Civik, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, will participate in fireside chats at two upcoming investor conferences. Live webcasts and replays of the fireside chats will be available on the Events & Presentations page in the Investor Relations section of Pyxis Oncology’s website, ir.pyxisoncology.com.
    • Guggenheim 3rd Annual Healthcare Innovation Conference: Monday, November 9, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. ET in Boston, MA.
    • Stifel 2026 Healthcare Conference: Tuesday, November 10, 2026, at 4:40 p.m. ET in New York, NY.

Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results

  • As of September 30, 2026, Pyxis Oncology had cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, and short-term investments, of $57.0 million. After considering net proceeds from the registered public offering, the company believes our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable debt securities will be sufficient to fund our operations into the first half of 2028.
  • Research and development expenses were $16.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared to $17.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction of $3.6 million in manufacturing costs, partially offset by a $3.0 million increase in clinical trial expenses related to monotherapy and combination therapy of MICVO.
  • General and administrative expenses were $4.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared to $5.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $1.4 million decrease in stock-based compensation expense.
  • Net loss was $20.0 million, or ($0.24) per common share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared to $22.0 million, or ($0.35) per common share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The $2.0 million year-over-year decrease in net loss primarily reflected a $1.7 million reduction in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.
  • As of November 4, 2026, the outstanding number of shares of Common Stock of Pyxis Oncology was 119,607,855.

About Micvotabart Pelidotin (MICVO)

Micvotabart pelidotin (MICVO, formerly PYX-201) is an investigational antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that uniquely targets extradomain-B of fibronectin (EDB+FN), a non-cellular structural component of the tumor extracellular matrix. MICVO is designed to generate a multi-pronged attack on difficult-to-treat cancers by directly killing cancer cells, reducing extracellular matrix density, inhibiting tumor angiogenesis and mobilizing an anti-tumor immune response.

MICVO received Fast Track Designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of adult patients with R/M HNSCC whose disease has progressed following treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy and an anti-PD-(L)1 therapy.

About Pyxis Oncology

Pyxis Oncology, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutics for difficult-to-treat cancers. The Company’s lead candidate, micvotabart pelidotin (MICVO), is a first-in-concept antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that targets extradomain-B of fibronectin (EDB+FN), a non-cellular structural component of the tumor extracellular matrix (ECM). EDB+FN is selectively overexpressed in the tumor microenvironment of a wide range of solid tumors and largely absent from normal adult tissues. MICVO is designed to treat solid tumors through a three-pronged mechanism of action: direct cancer cell killing, bystander effect and immunogenic cell death. MICVO is currently being evaluated as monotherapy in a Phase 1 clinical study in patients with recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC) and in combination with Merck’s anti-PD-1 therapy, KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab) in a Phase 1/2 clinical study in patients with R/M HNSCC and other solid tumors. Pyxis Oncology is focused on advancing MICVO, with the goal of improving outcomes for patients living with R/M HNSCC and contributing to meaningful progress in cancer treatment.
