• Third quarter revenues of $8.3 billion; GAAP¹ Net Income of $536 million, or 6.4% of sales
• EBITDA in the third quarter was 14.3% of sales; Diluted EPS of $3.86
• Third quarter results include $240 million, or $1.73 per diluted share, of Accelera non-cash charges

COLUMBUS, Ind.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) today reported results for the third quarter of 2025.

“Cummins delivered strong operating results in the third quarter, driven by profitable growth in our Power Systems and Distribution segments, due in part to continued rising demand for backup power for data centers. Effective cost management across the company helped navigate through the anticipated sharp decline in the North American truck market,” said Jennifer Rumsey, Chair and CEO. “During the quarter, we recorded non-cash charges related to our electrolyzer business within the Accelera segment, reflecting policy-driven shifts in hydrogen adoption expectations. Due to the significantly weaker prospects for demand, we are undertaking a strategic review of the electrolyzer business.”

Third quarter revenues of $8.3 billion decreased 2% from the same quarter in 2024. Sales in North America declined 4%, and international revenues increased 2% due to higher demand in China and Europe.

Net income attributable to Cummins in the third quarter was $536 million, or $3.86 per diluted share, compared to $809 million, or $5.86 per diluted share, in 2024. The current quarter results include Accelera non-cash charges of $240 million, or $1.73 per diluted share. The tax rate in the third quarter was 32.7% due primarily to non-deductible costs related to Accelera non-cash charges and $36 million or $0.26 per diluted share of tax costs related to the implementation of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) in the third quarter were $1.2 billion, or 14.3% of sales, compared to $1.4 billion, or 16.4% of sales, a year ago. EBITDA for the third quarter of 2025 included the costs noted above.

2025 Outlook:

Cummins will not be providing an outlook for revenue or profitability for the remainder of 2025.

“While uncertainty in a number of our end markets persists, our strong third quarter results are a testament to our diversified portfolio, effective cost discipline and commitment to delivering for our customers,” said Rumsey. “Cummins continues to operate from a position of strength as we navigate this dynamic environment, and we look forward to reinstating our financial guidance in February when we provide our outlook for 2026.”

Third Quarter 2025 Highlights:

• Cummins increased its quarterly common stock cash dividend from $1.82 to $2.00 per share. The company has increased the quarterly dividend to shareholders for 16 consecutive years.
• Cummins and Komatsu signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to collaborate on the development of hybrid powertrains for surface haulage heavy mining equipment. Building on a strong legacy of diesel engine supply across a wide variety of mining and construction equipment, Cummins and Komatsu will add hybrids to their product roadmaps of power technology solutions for progressive decarbonization in large mining haul truck applications.
• Cummins was recognized by Forbes as one of America’s best employers for company culture; rated as a top military-friendly employer by Military Friendly^®; and named “Best Place to Work for Disability Inclusion” for the fifth consecutive year by achieving a high score of 100 on the Disability Index^®.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Information

EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure used in this release and is defined and reconciled to what management believes to be the most comparable GAAP measure in a schedule attached to this release, except for forward-looking measures of EBITDA where a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the non-cash items that are excluded from the non-GAAP outlook measure. Cummins presents this information as it believes it is useful to understanding the Company’s operating performance, and because EBITDA is a measure used internally to assess the performance of the operating units.

Webcast information

Cummins management will host a teleconference to discuss these results today at 10 a.m. ET. This teleconference will be webcast and available on the Investor Relations section of the Cummins website at www.cummins.com.

(1)		Included intersegment sales, intersegment profit in inventory and unallocated corporate expenses. There were no significant unallocated corporate expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The nine months ended September 30, 2024, included a $1.3 billion gain related to the divestiture of Atmus Filtration Technologies Inc. (Atmus) and $14 million of costs associated with the divestiture of Atmus.
(2)		EBITDA is defined as earnings or losses before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and noncontrolling interests. We believe EBITDA is a useful measure of our operating performance as it assists investors and debt holders in comparing our performance on a consistent basis without regard to financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or depreciation and amortization methods, which can vary significantly depending upon many factors.
(3)		Included a $210 million goodwill impairment charge and a $30 million inventory write-down for nine months ended September 30, 2025.
(4)		Depreciation and amortization, as shown on a segment basis, excluded the amortization of debt discount and deferred costs included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income as interest expense. The amortization of debt discount and deferred costs was $10 million and $10 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. A portion of depreciation expense is included in research, development and engineering expenses.
(5)		Included $21 million of costs associated with the divestiture of Atmus for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

GOODWILL IMPAIRMENT AND INVENTORY WRITE-DOWN

During the third quarter of 2025, in our Accelera segment, we observed rapidly deteriorating conditions in our electrolyzer markets and overall hydrogen markets, along with significant uncertainty in the alternative power markets resulting from reductions in government incentives. As a result, we determined that a triggering event occurred for our electrolyzer reporting unit, warranting an interim impairment test of goodwill and the related asset group. We also re-evaluated the recoverability of certain inventory in this business due to the declining customer demand, resulting in a $30 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, excess and obsolete inventory write-down recorded in cost of sales. We concluded that the undiscounted cash flows exceeded the carrying value of the related asset group and thus an impairment did not exist for the related long-lived assets. However, we determined that on a fair value basis our goodwill was fully impaired and recorded a charge of $210 million, or $1.51 per diluted share, in other operating expense, net. The fair value of this reporting unit was determined using primarily a discounted cash flow model (a form of the income approach). This model incorporated a number of assumptions and judgements surrounding current market and economic conditions, internal forecasts of future business performance including short and long-term growth rates, earnings or losses before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and noncontrolling interests (EBITDA) margins and discount rates. The $240 million of charges were non-deductible for income taxes purposes. These non-cash charges were reflected in net cash provided by operating activities as a change in inventory of $30 million and other, net of $210 million.

INCOME TAXES

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (The Act) was signed into law, enacting significant changes to U.S. federal income tax rules affecting corporations, such as the ability to immediately deduct domestic research and development costs, restoration of elective 100 percent bonus depreciation for qualified property and changes to the international tax provisions. Implementation of The Act resulted in an increase to tax expense of $36 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to a reduction in the foreign income deduction and changes to the research and development tax credit.

Our effective tax rate for 2025 is expected to approximate 26.5 percent, excluding any discrete items that may arise, which is a 2 percent increase over our prior estimates. This increase is attributable to the impacts of The Act and the non-deductible goodwill impairment and inventory write-down.

Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, were 32.7 percent and 26.3 percent, respectively. Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, were 19.2 percent and 14.6 percent, respectively.

The three months ended September 30, 2025, contained net unfavorable discrete tax items of $4 million, $0.03 per diluted share, primarily due to $32 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments and net $1 million of other unfavorable tax items, partially offset by $25 million of favorable adjustments for uncertain tax positions and $4 million of favorable adjustments for share-based compensation.

The nine months ended September 30, 2025, contained net favorable discrete tax items of $6 million, $0.04 per diluted share, primarily due to $30 million of favorable adjustments for uncertain tax positions and $12 million of favorable adjustments for share-based compensation, partially offset by $32 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments and net $4 million of other unfavorable tax items.

The three months ended September 30, 2024, contained net favorable discrete tax items of $36 million, or $0.26 per share, primarily due to $20 million of favorable adjustments from tax return amendments, $15 million of favorable return to provision adjustments and $2 million of favorable share-based compensation tax benefits, partially offset by $1 million of other unfavorable tax items.

The nine months ended September 30, 2024, contained favorable discrete tax items primarily due to the $1.3 billion non-taxable gain on the Atmus split-off. Other discrete tax items were net favorable by $66 million, or $0.47 per share, primarily due to $21 million of favorable adjustments related to audit settlements, $20 million of favorable adjustments from tax return amendments, $18 million of favorable return to provision adjustments and $17 million of favorable share-based compensation tax benefits, partially offset by $7 million of unfavorable adjustments for uncertain tax positions and $3 million of other unfavorable adjustments.

Reconciliation of Non GAAP measures – Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and noncontrolling interests (EBITDA)

We believe EBITDA is a useful measure of our operating performance as it assists investors and debt holders in comparing our performance on a consistent basis without regard to financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or depreciation and amortization methods, which can vary significantly depending upon many factors. We believe EBITDA excluding special items, as noted in the table below, is a useful measure of our operating performance. This statement excludes forward looking measures of EBITDA where a reconciliation to the corresponding accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) measures is not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of non-cash items that are excluded from the non-GAAP outlook measure.

EBITDA is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may not be consistent with measures used by other companies. It should be considered supplemental data; however, the amounts included in the EBITDA calculation are derived from amounts included in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income. Below is a reconciliation of net income attributable to Cummins Inc. to EBITDA for each of the applicable periods:
