Westport Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Results

Westport Fuel Systems Inc. ("Westport") (TSX: WPRT Nasdaq: WPRT) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025, and provided an update on operations. All figures are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated.

"We appreciate the patience and support of our shareholders as we worked through our recent cybersecurity incident. Our priority was to ensure the integrity of our IT systems, business continuity and financial reporting, and we are pleased to confirm that this review has been successfully completed. With this behind us, we are looking forward to executing on our strategy and delivering on the next phase of our business objectives.

Turning to our financial results, the past year has been a defining one for Westport, marked by the successful divestiture of our Light-Duty business, the recent receipt of a $6.5 million payment, and further strengthened by Cespira's agreement with a leading OEM to manufacture and deliver HPDI components for a truck trial, assessing future commercialization. These accomplishments, combined with ending the year with over $27 million in cash and very low debt, reflect the meaningful progress we have made in sharpening our strategic focus and building a stronger, more resilient company.

The global heavy-duty transportation market is increasingly recognizing natural gas as a practical, lower-emission solution available today. This is evidenced by Volvo's recent milestone of delivering more than 10,000 natural gas trucks on the road underscoring the accelerating adoption of Cespira's HPDI fuel system technology and validates the strategic direction we have taken. From a market perspective, the UK leads the adoption of HPDI-powered LNG trucks, followed by Germany, Sweden, the Netherlands, Norway, and France. Emerging gas markets such as India and Latin America are also gaining momentum, with volumes seeing steady growth.

When we introduced our proprietary CNG fuel storage and delivery system designed for Cespira's HPDI's on-engine components several months ago, we emphasized its potential to significantly expand our addressable market. Development has progressed well, and our confidence in the commercial opportunity continues to build. We look forward to showcasing this solution at the upcoming Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo, where we will engage with industry partners and customers. By integrating advanced high-pressure CNG storage with Cespira's field-proven HPDI fuel system, we match the performance and operational range expected from diesel engines with compelling economics in markets where CNG is the natural choice, particularly in North America. We believe this innovation meaningfully expands the reach of Cespira's HPDI technology and positions Westport and Cespira to capture new opportunities as we move into field testing.

Our GFI brand, through our High Pressure Controls business, has also delivered important operational milestones. The opening of our new production facilities in China, one of the world's largest commercial vehicle markets and Canada represents a strategic step in localizing manufacturing, reducing costs, and improving competitiveness.

As the transportation industry continues to balance economic realities with sustainability objectives, we are confident that alternative fuel systems including Cespira's HPDI technology, and our high-pressure components provide real-world solutions that deliver both performance and affordability. With the completion of our strategic transition and only a few milestones remaining, a growing market validation of Cespira's expansion, and a clear strategic focus, Westport is excited to drive into this next phase."

2025 Highlights

• On July 29, 2025, Westport sold its Light-Duty segment to a wholly-owned vehicle of Heliaca Investments Coöperatief U.A. ("Purchaser"), a Netherlands based investment firm supported by Ramphastos Investments B.V., a Dutch venture capital and private equity firm, for total consideration of $60.0 million.
• On October 14, 2025, Westport announced that its joint venture with the Volvo Group, Cespira, signed an agreement to supply components for a customer truck trial with a second OEM.
• On November 6, 2025, Westport revealed a proprietary CNG solution that leverages advanced high-pressure storage technology, designed to deliver the performance required for Cespira's HPDI fuel system. This breakthrough enables faster time-to-market for CNG-powered HPDI applications and prioritizes reduced lifecycle costs by optimizing system design. Field testing for Westport's CNG solution is expected to being in 2026, with the path to commercialization expected to follow.
• Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by 43% to $23.3 million compared to $40.7 million in the prior year. The decrease was primarily driven by the end of the transitional service agreement between Westport and Cespira to provide inventory and contract manufacturing in Q2 2025 in our Heavy-Duty OEM segment, resulting in a decrease $16.3 million compared to prior year. The slowdown in the hydrogen industry, beginning early in 2025, along with the move of our manufacturing capability from Italy to Canada and China in the third and fourth quarters of 2025, negatively impacted sales in our High-Pressure Controls segment in 2025.
• Net loss in continuing operations of $29.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to a net loss in continuing operations of $31.3 million for the prior year. The net positive change was primarily the result of lower operating expenditures across research and development, and selling, general and administrative expenses, favorable change in foreign exchange rates, partially offset by a loss from investments accounted for by the equity method of $15.8 million due to a full year equity pick-up of Cespira's operating results compared to 7 months in the prior year.
• Adjusted EBITDA¹ loss of $17.3 million, compared to a loss of $11.4 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter was a loss of $9.9 million.
• Cash and cash equivalents were $27.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. Cash provided by operating activities during the year was $14.2 million.
• Long-term debt, including the current portion, reflected a 57% reduction to $2.9 million as at December 31, 2025, compared to $6.8 million in the prior year period. Including long-term debt from discontinued operations, the reduction was more than 90%.

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased $1.1 million compared to the prior year.

The decrease in revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year period were primarily driven by the general slowdown in hydrogen infrastructure development that began in the first half of 2025, leading to a slower adoption of automotive and industrial applications powered by hydrogen. In Q3 2025, we moved our manufacturing capacity from Italy to our new facilities in Canada and China, which required shutting down our operations. In late Q4 2025, we resumed selling products to our customers to meet the backlogged demand from the aforementioned shutdown. In early 2026, we announced start of production at both facilities and expect output and efficiency to increase over the year.

Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $0.3 million to negative $0.2 million, or negative 9% of revenue, compared to $0.1 million, or 9% of revenue, for the same prior year period. In the current quarter, we recorded an inventory provision for excess and obsolete parts and materials of $0.4 million, of which $0.2 million is related to a commercial program that was cancelled in 2025.

Selected Cespira Financial Information

We account for Cespira using the equity method of accounting. However, due to its significance to our long-term strategy and operating results, we disclose certain financial information from Cespira in notes 8 and 17 in our Annual Financial Statements.

The following table sets forth a summary of the financial results of Cespira for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and the period between June 3, 2024 to December 31, 2024:

¹Gross margin is non-GAAP financial measure. See the section 'Non-GAAP Financial Measures' for explanations and discussions of these non-GAAP financial measures or ratios.

Cespira's product revenue was $23.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $18.1 million in the prior year period. The increase in product revenue was primarily driven by an increase in sales volume to their initial OEM customer.

Cespira's product revenue was $62.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $32.9 million in the prior year. The increase in product revenue was primarily driven by the full year of sales volume in 2025 compared to 7 months of sales in the prior year.

Cespira's service revenue was $5.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $4.9 million in the prior year period. Cespira's service revenue was $15.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $10.2 million in the prior year.

Cespira provided engineering services to OEM customers for product development, testing, integration, and validation. In 2025, Cespira provided engineering services to their initial OEM customer for the upcoming regulations in the European market. The increase in the current quarter relates to the increased engineering services delivered to their customers. Cespira recognizes its service revenue using the output method, driven primarily by achieving project milestones.

Cespira's gross profit was negative $1.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $0.5 million in the prior year period. In the current quarter, Cespira recognized a provision for obsolete inventory of $1.7 million as a new variant of a certain product was launched and a loss on onerous contract of $2.8 million for a certain engineering project.

Cespira's gross profit was negative $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $0.5 million in the prior year. The gross profit decrease was due to the aforementioned provision for obsolete inventory and loss on onerous contract, partially offset by increased sales volume in the year.

Liquidity and Going Concern

As at December 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $27.2 million and an outstanding term loan, net of deferred financing fees, with Export Development Canada ("EDC") of $2.9 million. Based on our projected capital expenditures, debt servicing obligations and operating requirements under our current business plan, we are projecting that our cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our operations through the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of our consolidated financial statements.

We plan to improve our liquidity position by raising funds from public markets, borrowing debt, or other financing alternatives. These plans are not final and are subject to market and other conditions not in our control. As such, there can be no assurances that Westport will be successful in obtaining sufficient funding. Accordingly, we concluded under the accounting standards that these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt about Westport's ability to continue as a going concern.

GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). These U.S. GAAP financial statements include non-cash charges and other charges and benefits that may be unusual or infrequent in nature or that we believe may make comparisons to our prior or future performance difficult. In addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Westport and certain investors use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as an indicator of our ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow to fund working capital needs, service debt obligations and fund capital expenditures. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures in its review and evaluation of the financial performance of Westport. EBITDA is also frequently used by investors and analysts for valuation purposes whereby EBITDA is multiplied by a factor or "EBITDA multiple" that is based on an observed or inferred relationship between EBITDA and market values to determine the approximate total enterprise value of a company. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures also provide additional insight to investors and securities analysts as supplemental information to our U.S. GAAP results and as a basis to compare our financial performance period-over-period and to compare our financial performance with that of other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons of our core operating results from period to period and to other companies by, in the case of EBITDA, removing the effects of our capital structure (net interest income on cash deposits, interest expense on outstanding debt and debt facilities), asset base (depreciation and amortization) and tax consequences. Adjusted EBITDA provides this same indicator of Westport's EBITDA from continuing operations and removing such effects of our capital structure, asset base and tax consequences, but additionally excludes any unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses, stock-based compensation charges and other one-time impairments and costs which are not expected to be repeated in order to provide greater insight into the cash flow being produced from our operating business, without the influence of extraneous events.

Segment Information

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are intended to provide additional information to investors and analysts and do not have any standardized definition under U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA exclude the impact of cash costs of financing activities and taxes, and the effects of changes in operating working capital balances, and therefore are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under U.S. GAAP. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently. Segment earnings or losses before income taxes, interest, depreciation, and amortization ("Segment EBITDA") is the measure of segment profitability used by the Company. The accounting policies of our reportable segments are the same as those applied in our consolidated financial statements. Management prepared the financial results of the Company's reportable segments on basis that is consistent with the manner in which Management internally disaggregates financial information to assist in making internal operating decisions. Certain common costs and expenses, primarily corporate functions, among segments differently than we would for stand-alone financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These include certain costs and expenses of shared services, such as IT, human resources, legal, finance and supply chain management. Segment EBITDA is not defined under US GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered a substitute for net earnings or other results reported in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of reportable segment information to consolidated statement of operations can be found in section "NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES & RECONCILIATIONS" within this press release.
