Press Release
FreightCar America, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Results
Strong full year gross profit growth and over 260 basis points of gross margin expansion despite challenging industry environment
Operating cash flow of $35 million and Adjusted Free Cash Flow of $31 million, up 45% year over year
Projecting growth in 2026
CHICAGO, March 9, 2026 – FreightCar America, Inc. (NASDAQ: RAIL) (“FreightCar America” or the “Company”), a diversified manufacturer and supplier of railroad freight cars, railcar parts and components, today reported results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
Fourth Quarter 2025 Highlights
Fiscal Year 2025 Highlights
“In 2025, FreightCar America executed with discipline amid a challenging industry environment, delivering revenue in line with our expectations while producing exceptional profitability,” said Nick Randall, President and Chief Executive Officer of FreightCar America. “During the year, we capitalized on demand by leveraging our customer-centric approach of tailored solutions, including conversions and customized offerings, while also growing market share in new car deliveries. This execution, combined with our manufacturing flexibility and ongoing implementation of operational initiatives such as our TruTrack program, contributed to improved Adjusted EBITDA margins and strong free cash flow generation, further strengthening our financial position.”
Randall continued, “As we enter 2026, we remain focused on converting backlog into profitable deliveries while continuing to invest for growth. We are deploying capital effectively to diversify our revenue base, expand our aftermarket business and presence in the tank car market to further strengthen our offerings and capture demand, while continuing to evaluate strategic opportunities that fuel future growth. Overall, with a strong commercial strategy, a lean and flexible operating model, and an efficient manufacturing footprint, we are well positioned to perform in the current environment and to accelerate as industry fundamentals improve.
Fiscal Year 2026 Outlook
The Company has issued outlook for fiscal year 2026 as follows:
|
Fiscal 2026 Outlook |
Year-over-Year Change at Midpoint of Range |
Railcar Deliveries |
4,000 – 4,500 Railcars |
3.0% |
Revenue |
$500 - $550 million |
5.0% |
Adjusted EBITDA1 |
$41 - $50 million |
10.4% |
1. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA guidance due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying adjustments necessary to calculate such non-GAAP measure without unreasonable effort. Material changes to such adjustments, including warrant liability and non-core operating items, could affect future GAAP results. Adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2026 is compared, year-over-year, to Lease-Adjusted EBITDA. for 2025.
Mike Riordan, Chief Financial Officer of FreightCar America, added, “2025 demonstrated the durability of our operating model. We made continued progress strengthening the quality and consistency of our cash flows while maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation. During the year, we also advanced our aftermarket strategy, including the addition of Carly Railcar Components, which enhances this growing part of our business and supports more stable, recurring revenue across market cycles. Looking ahead to 2026, our guidance reflects ongoing industry uncertainty while reinforcing our confidence in the underlying strength and resilience of the business.”

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains statements relating to our expected financial performance, financial condition, and/or future business prospects, events and/or plans that are “forward-looking statements” as defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this press release. Our actual results may differ materially from the results described in or anticipated by our forward-looking statements due to certain risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties relate to, among other things, the cyclical nature of our business; adverse geopolitical, economic and market conditions, including inflation; material disruption in the movement of rail traffic for deliveries; fluctuating costs of raw materials, including steel and aluminum; delays in the delivery of raw materials; our ability to maintain relationships with our suppliers of railcar components; our reliance upon a small number of customers that represent a large percentage of our sales; the variable purchase patterns of our customers and the timing of completion; delivery and customer acceptance of orders; the highly competitive nature of our industry; the risk of lack of acceptance of our new railcar offerings; potential unexpected changes in laws, rules, and regulatory requirements, including tariffs and trade barriers (including recent United States tariffs imposed or threatened to be imposed on China, Canada, Mexico and other countries and any retaliatory actions taken by such countries); the scope and duration of the government shutdown; and other competitive factors. The factors listed above are not exhaustive. New factors emerge from time to time that may cause our business not to develop as we expect, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We expressly disclaim any duty to provide updates to any forward-looking statements made in this press release, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes measures not derived in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted EPS, Free cash flow and Adjusted free cash flow. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure derived in accordance with GAAP and may also be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies. Reconciliations of these measures to the applicable most closely comparable GAAP measures, and reasons for the Company’s use of these measures, are presented in the attached pages.

(1) EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry. In addition, our management uses EBITDA to evaluate our operating performance. The calculation of EBITDA eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending. These items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to the overall performance of the company’s business. EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing our operating performance, investors should not consider EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statements of operations or statements of cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to that of other similar titled measures reported by other companies.
(2) Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before the following charges:
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash charges and other special items that affect the comparability of results in past quarters. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing our operating performance, investors should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statements of operations or statements of cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to that of other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
