- Third-quarter revenue fell 15 percent year over year to 827.4 million USD, while bookings rose 45 percent to 550 million USD.
- Adjusted EBITDA returned to positive territory, but Hyster-Yale still posted a 14.9 million USD net loss.
- Management expects stronger shipments and positive adjusted net income in the fourth quarter.
Hyster-Yale said on November 5, 2026, that stronger bookings began to translate into higher shipments in the third quarter, while the lift-truck maker launched a restructuring plan targeting at least 100 million USD in annual savings at maturity in 2029. The PR Newswire release covers the quarter ended September 30.
Bookings Improve Before Profits
Revenue reached 827.4 million USD, down 15 percent from the prior-year quarter but 2 percent above the second quarter. Net loss widened to 14.9 million USD from 2.3 million USD a year earlier, while the operating loss was 9.1 million USD.
Bookings rose 45 percent year over year to 550 million USD, and backlog remained near 1.6 billion USD. Adjusted EBITDA returned to 6 million USD from a negative 4.9 million USD in the second quarter, while operating cash flow increased to 26.3 million USD.
Fourth-Quarter Execution Matters
Management expects fourth-quarter bookings to exceed both the third quarter and the prior-year quarter. Higher production and shipments are expected to lift revenue and manufacturing efficiency, although tariffs, inflation, delivery schedules, sourcing changes and competitive pricing remain risks.
The new initiatives include portfolio changes, manufacturing-plant consolidation, simpler support operations and lower capital intensity. Hyster-Yale is also exiting hydrogen fuel-cell and HydroCharge activities and is discontinuing plans to manufacture Big Trucks in the United States. Implementation will be staged and may change as planning and approval work progresses.
Hyster-Yale's Industrial Position
Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, Hyster-Yale designs, manufactures, sells and services lift trucks, parts, technology and energy solutions under the Hyster and Yale brands. Its Bolzoni subsidiary supplies attachments, forks and lift tables, giving the group exposure to industrial lifting, warehouses, ports and logistics operations.
In the broader materials-handling market, Toyota Material Handling competes with a broad industrial-truck portfolio, KION combines forklifts with warehouse automation, and Jungheinrich focuses on electric warehouse vehicles and intralogistics. Hyster-Yale is positioned as a global lift-truck manufacturer with a stronger emphasis on industrial and heavy-duty applications than the automation-led offerings of some larger peers.
