MILWAUKEE, Feb. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Douglas Dynamics, Inc. (NYSE: PLOW), North America’s premier manufacturer and upfitter of work truck attachments and equipment, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025. Unless stated otherwise, all comparisons are to the corresponding prior year quarter or prior full year results.
Mark Van Genderen, President and CEO stated, “2025 was an important year for our company, defined by meaningful strategic progress and strong financial performance. Improved market conditions, combined with disciplined operational performance, drove top- and bottom-line growth in both segments. During the year, we introduced our Optimize, Expand, and Activate strategic pillars, with specific actions including the manufacturing optimization in Work Truck Attachments, the expansion of our municipal upfit capacity in Work Truck Solutions, and activating our M&A capabilities with the acquisition of Venco Venturo.

Fourth Quarter 2025
- Net Sales grew 28.6% to $184.5 million, producing Net Income of $12.8 million, or $0.54 of diluted earnings per share (EPS), both increased approximately 60%.
- Adjusted EBITDA increased 37.2% to $25.8 million.
- Adjusted Diluted EPS increased 57.7% to $0.62.
- The tremendous improvements were driven by improved demand and efficient execution at both segments.
Full Year 2025
- Net Sales grew 15.4% to a record $656.1 million, producing Net Income of $46.9 million, or $1.96 of diluted earnings per share.
- Adjusted EBITDA increased 23.4% to $97.9 million.
- Adjusted Diluted EPS increased 52.0% to $2.24.
Work Truck Attachments
| $ in millions (except Adjusted EBITDA Margin) | Q4 2025 | Q4 2024 | FY 2025 | FY 2024 |
| Net Sales | $83.1 | $53.8 | $295.7 | $256.0 |
| Adjusted EBITDA | $13.9 | $9.0 | $56.2 | $48.5 |
| Adjusted EBITDA Margin | 16.7% | 16.7% | 19.0% | 18.9% |
- Fourth quarter Net Sales and Adjusted EBITDA both increased by more than 50% following an early start to winter. Significantly increased snowfall totals in core markets compared to recent years drove increased equipment sales and record sales of parts and accessories.
- Full year Net Sales and Adjusted EBITDA improved by 15.5% and 16.0%, respectively, including record sales of parts and accessories.
- Improvements were due to the impact of increased snowfall in core markets in both 1Q and 4Q 2025 driving higher volumes, plus ongoing cost control efforts.
Van Genderen explained, “Year-over-year growth in the fourth quarter was primarily driven by a strong start to winter. Our core markets in the Midwest and Northeast experienced snowfall well above the weighted 10-year average. Parts and accessories demand, which is heavily correlated to snow and ice events during the season, increased by more than 50% in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the prior year. I want to thank our teams who have worked tirelessly to meet this demand. More broadly, the strength of our fourth quarter performance underscores the operating leverage in our business and our ability to capitalize on favorable conditions. Initial data indicates this winter is likely to produce at or above average snowfall in many of our core markets with dealer inventories below the ten-year average.”
Work Truck Solutions
| $ in millions (except Adjusted EBITDA Margin) | Q4 2025 | Q4 2024 | FY 2025 | FY 2024 |
| Net Sales | $101.5 | $89.8 | $360.3 | $312.5 |
| Adjusted EBITDA | $11.9 | $9.8 | $41.7 | $30.9 |
| Adjusted EBITDA Margin | 11.7% | 10.9% | 11.6% | 9.9% |
- Based on the ongoing strength of municipal demand, plus efficient operations that produced increased throughput, the Solutions segment delivered a record fourth quarter, and a record year.
- Fourth quarter Net Sales and Adjusted EBITDA increased 13.1% and 21.7%, respectively, driving Adjusted EBITDA margins of 11.7%, an increase of 80 basis points.
- On a full-year basis, Net Sales grew 15.3%, and Adjusted EBITDA increased 35.0%, with record annual margins of 11.6%, an increase of 170 basis points.
- 2025 Net Sales included approximately $18 million of incremental chassis sales.
Van Genderen added, “2025 marked another strong year in Solutions and the fourth consecutive year of significant financial improvement. We are encouraged to see the recent growth in municipal contracts and excellent throughput are now shown in our results. Although we do not expect this pace of improvement to continue indefinitely, we enter 2026 with a robust municipal order book, and are working diligently to optimize our commercial business, which operates in a less predictable demand environment.”
Capital Allocation & Liquidity
- Net cash provided by operating activities increased by 81.6% in 2025 to $74.7 million based on the increase in net income.
- Free cash flow for 2025 increased 90.7% to $63.6 million, compared to 2024, based on an increase in cash provided by operating activities.
- The Board of Directors also approved and declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.295 per share for the first quarter of 2026. The declared dividend will be paid on March 31, 2026, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 17, 2026.
2026 Outlook
Sarah Lauber, Executive Vice President and CFO, noted, “Over the past two years, we have delivered meaningful top-line growth. In addition, our bottom-line results have shown substantial improvement. This performance reflects several factors, including sustained strong demand and execution at Solutions, plus the ongoing success of cost control initiatives and more favorable weather conditions positively impacting demand at Attachments. A strong 2025-26 winter season should help address the extended equipment replacement cycle, where equipment was underutilized for several winters due to below average snowfall.”
Lauber concluded, “With our current level of visibility, we believe the business is well positioned to drive continued improvements with year-over-year growth in 2026, which is reflected in our outlook.”

The 2026 outlook assumes relatively stable economic and supply chain conditions, and that core markets will experience average snowfall in 2026.
With respect to the Company’s 2026 financial outlook, the Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP because it does not provide specific guidance for the various extraordinary, nonrecurring, or unusual charges and other certain items. These items have not yet occurred, are out of the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. As a result, reconciliation of the non-GAAP guidance measures to GAAP is not available without unreasonable effort and the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial information calculated other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The non-GAAP measures used in this press release are Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share, and Free Cash Flow. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and other external users of its consolidated financial statements in evaluating the Company’s operating performance as compared to that of other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the nearest comparable GAAP measures can be found immediately following the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in this press release.
Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, as further adjusted for certain charges consisting of unrelated legal and consulting fees, stock-based compensation, severance, restructuring charges, acquisition costs, inventory step up related to Venco Venturo, CEO transition costs, debt modification expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, write downs of property, plant and equipment, insurance proceeds, gain on sale leaseback transaction and related transaction costs, and impairment charges. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating the Company’s operating performance because it provides the Company and its investors with additional tools to compare its operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the Company’s core operations. The Company’s management also uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of its annual operating budget and financial projections, and to evaluate the Company’s ability to make certain payments, including dividends, in compliance with its senior credit facilities, which is determined based on a calculation of “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA” that is substantially similar to Adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (calculated on a diluted basis) represents net income and earnings per share (as defined by GAAP), excluding the impact of stock based compensation, severance, restructuring charges, acquisition costs, inventory step up related to Venco Venturo,CEO transition costs, debt modification expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, write downs of property, plant and equipment, insurance proceeds, gain on sale leaseback transaction and related transaction costs, impairment charges, certain charges related to unrelated legal fees and consulting fees, and adjustments on derivatives not classified as hedges, net of their income tax impact. Adjustments on derivatives not classified as hedges are non-cash and are related to overall financial market conditions; therefore, management believes such costs are unrelated to our business and are not representative of our results. Management believes that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are useful in assessing the Company’s financial performance by eliminating expenses and income that are not reflective of the underlying business performance.
Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less the acquisition of property and equipment. Free Cash Flow should be evaluated in addition to, and not considered a substitute for, other financial measures such as Net Income and Net Cash Provided By (Used in) Operating Activities. We believe that free cash flow represents our ability to generate additional cash flow from our business operations.
