Class 8 build rates remain subdued with fleet utilization below optimal levels. While management sees 'worst behind', actual demand recovery could be slower than expected, impacting FY26 North America revenue (down 40% in 9M FY26).
Q3 gross margin contracted to 45% at standalone level due to unfavorable product mix and higher rejection rates. Management estimates 100bps margin impact from quality rejections that should normalize next quarter.
Domestic revenue mix increased to 68% in 9M FY26 from 59% in FY25. Domestic realizations are lower than export realizations, creating headwind to overall profitability recovery despite volume growth.
Management declined to commit to specific timeline for returning to 19-20% EBITDA margins despite repeated analyst questioning, stating only 'as fast as possible' and 'consistent Q-o-Q improvement'. This lack of specificity creates uncertainty for earnings visibility.
