Dauch Corporation pre-announced preliminary Q3 2026 results ahead of its November 6 earnings call, expecting a net loss of $42-47 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $355-360 million for the quarter. The company cut its full-year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA target to $1.350-1.375 billion from the prior $1.360-1.425 billion range, citing macro headwinds including customer production volatility, rising inflation, and increasing energy costs. Sales guidance was nonetheless nudged up to $10.8-10.875 billion from $10.6-10.8 billion, helped by metal market pass-throughs.
