Gorman-Rupp Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial ResultsApril 23, 2026 6:30 AM
Business Wire
The Gorman-Rupp Company (NYSE: GRC) reports financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.
First Quarter 2026 Highlights
Net sales of $176.6 million increased 7.7%, or $12.7 million, compared to the first quarter of 2025
Record net income of $17.8 million, or $0.68 per share, compared to net income of $12.1 million, or $0.46 per share, for the first quarter of 2025
Incoming orders of $187.5 million increased 5.5%, or $9.7 million, compared to the first quarter of 2025 with backlog increasing to $247.9 million at March 31, 2026
Net sales for the first quarter of 2026 were $176.6 million compared to net sales of $163.9 million for the first quarter of 2025, an increase of 7.7%, or $12.7 million. The increase was driven by volume growth as well as pricing increases. Sales increased in the majority of our markets, including increases of $6.3 million in the construction market due to increased demand in mining and sales of rental equipment, $4.4 million in the agriculture market due to broad based improvement across Fill-Rite's sale channels, $3.5 million in the industrial market due to increased domestic investment, $2.9 million in the municipal market due to increased water and wastewater projects related to infrastructure investment, and $1.7 million in the OEM market due to increased demand related to data centers. These increases were partially offset by a sales decrease of $5.5 million in the fire suppression market primarily due to reduced international shipments. Sales also decreased $0.3 million in the petroleum market and $0.3 million in the repair market.
Gross profit was $57.4 million for the first quarter of 2026, resulting in gross margin of 32.5%, compared to gross profit of $50.3 million and gross margin of 30.7% for the same period in 2025. The 180 basis point increase in gross margin was driven by a 100 basis point improvement in labor and overhead leverage from increased sales and an 80 basis point improvement in cost of material due in part to favorable product mix.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $26.8 million and 15.2% of net sales for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $25.1 million and 15.3% of net sales for the same period in 2025. SG&A expenses increased due to higher advertising expenses related to trade show activity as well as increased freight out costs driven by increased sales.
Operating income was $27.5 million for the first quarter of 2026, resulting in an operating margin of 15.6%, compared to operating income of $22.1 million and an operating margin of 13.5% for the same period in 2025. The 210 basis point increase in operating margin was driven by improved leverage on labor, overhead, and SG&A expenses due to increased sales and favorable product mix.
Interest expense was $5.0 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $6.2 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease in interest expense was due primarily to a decrease in outstanding debt.
The Company's effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2026 was 19.8% compared to 21.9% for the first quarter of 2025. The decrease in the effective tax rate was driven by a favorable discrete adjustment recorded during the first quarter of 2026. The Company expects the effective tax rate for the full year 2026 to be between 22.0% and 23.0%.
Net income was $17.8 million, or $0.68 per share, for the first quarter of 2026 compared to net income of $12.1 million, or $0.46 per share, in the first quarter of 2025.
Adjusted EBITDA1 was $35.5 million and 20.1% of sales for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $29.7 million and 18.1% of sales for the first quarter of 2025.
Incoming orders for the first quarter of 2026 were $187.5 million, an increase of 5.5%, or $9.7 million, compared to the same period in 2025. The Company’s backlog of orders was $247.9 million at March 31, 2026 compared to $217.8 million at March 31, 2025 and $244.0 million at December 31, 2025.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the first quarter of 2026 was $22.0 million compared to $21.1 million for the same period in 2025. The increase in cash provided by operating activities in 2026 was primarily due to increased net income partially offset by increased working capital for the three month period ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period last year. Capital expenditures for the first quarter of 2026 were $4.3 million and consisted primarily of machinery and equipment. Capital expenditures for the full-year 2026 are presently planned to be approximately $22.0 - $24.0 million. Total debt decreased $15.0 million during the first three months of 2026.
Scott A. King, President and CEO, commented, “We delivered a strong start to 2026, with solid sales growth, meaningful margin expansion, and record earnings. Our results reflect the impact of pricing actions, a favorable product mix, improved leverage across labor, overhead, and SG&A, and efficient execution across our operations. Demand remained broad-based across most of our end markets with incoming order volumes supporting sales growth and increasing our backlog, which we believe positions us well for the remainder of the year. We also generated strong operating cash flow and reduced debt during the quarter. As we move forward, we remain focused on disciplined execution, investing appropriately in the business, and delivering long-term profitable growth."
About The Gorman-Rupp Company
Founded in 1933, The Gorman-Rupp Company is a leading designer, manufacturer and international marketer of pumps and pump systems for use in diverse water, wastewater, construction, dewatering, industrial, petroleum, original equipment, agriculture, fire suppression, heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC), military and other liquid-handling applications.
(1) Non-GAAP Information
This release includes certain non-GAAP financial data and measures such as adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”). Adjusted EBITDA is net income (loss) excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude non-cash LIFO2 expense. Management utilizes these adjusted financial data and measures to assess comparative operations against those of prior periods without the distortion of non-comparable factors. The inclusion of these adjusted measures should not be construed as an indication that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or infrequent items or that the items for which the Company has made adjustments are unusual or infrequent or will not recur. Further, the impact of the LIFO inventory costing method can cause results to vary substantially from company to company depending upon whether they elect to utilize LIFO and depending upon which LIFO method they may elect. The Gorman-Rupp Company believes that these non-GAAP financial data and measures also will be useful to investors in assessing the strength of the Company’s underlying operations and liquidity from period to period. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace GAAP financial measures, and they are not necessarily standardized or comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Provided below is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its corresponding GAAP financial measures, which includes a description of actual adjustments made in the current period and the corresponding prior period.
(2) LIFO Inventory Method
The majority of the Company’s inventories are valued on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method and stated at the lower of cost or market. Current cost approximates replacement cost, or market, and LIFO cost is determined at the end of each fiscal year based on inventory levels on-hand at current replacement cost and a LIFO reserve. The Company uses the simplified LIFO method, under which the LIFO reserve is determined utilizing the inflation factor specified in the Producer Price Index for Machinery and Equipment – Pumps, Compressors and Equipment, as published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimate of the expected year-end inflation index and, as such, are subject to adjustment each quarter. When inflation increases, the LIFO reserve and non-cash expense increase.

Gorman-Rupp Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial ResultsFebruary 6, 2026 6:30 AM
Business Wire
The Gorman-Rupp Company (NYSE: GRC) reports financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025.
Fourth Quarter 2025 Highlights
Net sales of $166.6 million increased 2.4%, or $3.9 million, compared to the fourth quarter of 2024
Net income was $13.7 million, or $0.52 per share, compared to net income of $11.0 million, or $0.42 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2024
Adjusted earnings per share1 for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 2024 were $0.55 and $0.42, respectively
Incoming orders of $178.2 million increased 9.2%, or $15.1 million, compared to the fourth quarter of 2024
Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $166.6 million compared to net sales of $162.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of 2.4% or $3.9 million. Sales increased in the majority of our markets, including an increase of $2.8 million in the fire suppression market, $2.2 million in the industrial market, and $1.9 million in the OEM market all due in part to increased demand related to data centers. Sales also increased $2.6 million in the agriculture market and $0.8 million in the repair market. These increases were partially offset by sales decreases of $4.0 million in the municipal market due to the timing of domestic flood control and wastewater projects. Sales also decreased $2.2 million in the construction market primarily due to lower sales into the rental market, and decreased $0.2 million in the petroleum market.
Gross profit was $52.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, resulting in gross margin of 31.4%, compared to gross profit of $49.2 million and gross margin of 30.2% for the same period in 2024. The 120 basis point increase in gross margin was driven by a 110 basis point improvement in labor and overhead leverage, due in part to an unusual increase in healthcare related costs in the prior year which did not recur, and a 10 basis point improvement in cost of material driven by a reduction in LIFO2 expense.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $24.4 million and 14.7% of net sales for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $25.0 million and 15.4% of net sales for the same period in 2024. SG&A expenses decreased in part due to an unusual increase in healthcare related costs in the prior year which did not recur.
Operating income was $24.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, resulting in an operating margin of 14.9%, compared to operating income of $21.1 million and an operating margin of 13.0% for the same period in 2024. The 190 basis point increase in operating margin, compared to the same period in 2024, was driven by improved leverage on labor, overhead, and SG&A expenses due to increased sales and reduced healthcare costs.
Interest expense was $5.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease in interest expense was due primarily to a decrease in outstanding debt.
Other income (expense), net was $1.5 million of expense for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $0.7 million of expense for the same period in 2024. Other expense for the fourth quarter of 2025 included non-cash pension settlement charges of $1.2 million.
Net income was $13.7 million, or $0.52 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to net income of $11.0 million, or $0.42 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2024. Adjusted earnings per share1 for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 2024 were $0.55 and $0.42 per share, respectively.
Adjusted EBITDA1 was $31.5 million and 18.9% of sales for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $29.0 million and 17.8% of sales for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Full year 2025 Highlights
Record net sales of $682.4 million increased 3.4%, or $22.7 million, compared to 2024
Record net income was $53.0 million, or $2.02 per share, compared to $40.1 million, or $1.53 per share in 2024
Adjusted earnings per share1 for 2025 and 2024 were $2.14 and $1.75, respectively
Record incoming orders of $728.4 million increased 10.5%, or $69.2 million, compared to 2024
Total debt decreased $60.0 million in 2025
Net sales for 2025 were $682.4 million compared to net sales of $659.7 million for 2024, an increase of 3.4% or $22.7 million. Sales increased in the majority of our markets, including sales increases of $8.1 million in the industrial market and $6.6 million in the fire suppression market due in part to increased demand related to data centers. Net sales also increased $5.2 million in the repair market, $4.9 million in the OEM market, $3.4 million in the municipal market, $2.4 million in the agriculture market, and $1.5 million in the petroleum market. Offsetting these increases was a decrease of $9.4 million in the construction market due to a general slowdown in construction activity, including sales into the rental market.
Gross profit was $209.1 million for 2025, resulting in gross margin of 30.6%, compared to gross profit of $204.3 million and gross margin of 31.0% for the same period in 2024. Gross profit for 2025 included $2.7 million of one-time facility optimization costs. The 40 basis point decrease in gross margin was the result of one-time facility optimization costs recognized in the third quarter of 2025.
During the third quarter of 2025, based on changes in the agriculture market over the last few years, we took steps intended to optimize our National Pump Company (NPC) footprint. We reduced the number of NPC operating facilities from six to three and expect this change to result in improved profitability by lowering our fixed operating costs with minimal impact on sales. We have transitioned the NPC facility in Olive Branch, MS to our Patterson Pump Company operations to continue to support the growth we have seen in the fire, municipal and industrial markets. During the third quarter, we recognized $3.0 million in one-time facility optimization costs including inventory rationalization, severance, and facility costs. We expect these changes will result in annualized savings of between $2.0 and $2.5 million in payroll, payroll related, and facility costs.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $101.4 million and 14.9% of net sales for 2025 compared to $100.5 million and 15.2% of net sales for the same period in 2024.
Operating income was $95.4 million for 2025, resulting in an operating margin of 14.0%, compared to operating income of $91.4 million and an operating margin of 13.9% for the same period in 2024. Operating income for 2025 included $3.0 million of facility optimization costs. The 10 basis point increase in operating margin compared to the same period in 2024 was driven by improved leverage on labor, overhead, and SG&A expenses partially offset by facility optimization costs.
Interest expense was $23.4 million for 2025 compared to $33.6 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease in interest expense was due to a series of debt refinancing transactions the Company completed on May 31, 2024, as well as a decrease in outstanding debt.
Other income (expense), net was $2.8 million of expense for 2025 compared to $7.3 million of expense for the same period in 2024. Other expense for 2025 included non-cash pension settlement charges of $1.2 million. Other expense for 2024 included a $4.4 million write-off of unamortized previously deferred debt financing fees and a $1.8 million prepayment fee related to the early retirement of a subordinated credit facility.
Net income was $53.0 million, or $2.02 per share, for 2025, compared to net income of $40.1 million, or $1.53 per share, for 2024. Adjusted earnings per share1 for 2025 and 2024 were $2.14 and $1.75 per share, respectively.
Adjusted EBITDA1 was $128.8 million and 18.9% of sales for 2025 compared to $124.6 million and 18.9% of sales for 2024.
The Company’s backlog of orders was $244.0 million at December 31, 2025 compared to $206.0 million at December 31, 2024. Incoming orders for 2025 were $728.4 million, an increase of 10.5%, or $69.2 million, compared to the same period in 2024.
Net cash provided by operating activities for 2025 was $106.2 million compared to $69.8 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in cash provided by operating activities in 2025 was primarily due to increased net income and an increase in operating liabilities. Capital expenditures for 2025 were $17.4 million and consisted primarily of machinery and equipment. Capital expenditures for the full-year 2026 are presently planned to be approximately $20.0 - $22.0 million. Total debt decreased $60.0 million during 2025.
Scott A. King, President and CEO, commented, “We are proud to have attained record sales, adjusted earnings per share and incoming orders during the year. Full year sales increased across the majority of our markets and all markets saw an increase in incoming orders. We maintained the record gross margin rates we achieved in 2024 and effectively managed our SG&A costs throughout the year. Cash flow continued to be strong, enabling a $60 million reduction in debt, resulting in a significant decrease in interest expense. Improvements in operating income, combined with reduced interest expense, led to a 22% increase in adjusted earnings per share. As we begin 2026 our outlook remains positive. The 10% increase in incoming orders during 2025 increased our backlog to a healthy $244 million. We expect our municipal market to continue to benefit from infrastructure spending, including strong demand for flood control and storm water management, and expect a number of our markets to continue to benefit from increased demand related to data center construction. Our strong cash flow positions us well to further reduce our debt and interest expense going forward.
“I appreciate the Gorman-Rupp team’s continued efforts to contribute to another successful year, and I am grateful to our customers, suppliers, and shareholders for their on-going support.”

Current cost approximates replacement cost, or market, and LIFO cost is determined at the end of each fiscal year based on inventory levels on-hand at current replacement cost and a LIFO reserve. The Company uses the simplified LIFO method, under which the LIFO reserve is determined utilizing the inflation factor specified in the Producer Price Index for Machinery and Equipment – Pumps, Compressors and Equipment, as published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimate of the expected year-end inflation index and, as such, are subject to adjustment each quarter. When inflation increases, the LIFO reserve and non-cash expense increase.
