Dauch Corporation reported a sharp swing to a net loss while completing a transformative acquisition in the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Net sales rose to $2,378.9 million, up 68.6% from $1,411.3 million, largely driven by the acquisition of Dowlais Group plc, which added about $972 million of sales.

The company posted a net loss of $100.0 million, versus net income of $7.1 million a year earlier, as results absorbed $98.9 million of restructuring and acquisition-related costs and a $38 million inventory fair-value step-up. Operating cash flow turned to an outflow of $64.4 million from an inflow of $55.9 million.

Total assets increased to $11.27 billion from $6.67 billion, with goodwill rising to $648.8 million after recording $475.0 million from the Dowlais transaction. Long-term debt grew to $5.25 billion, supported by 6.375% and 7.75% notes and a new Tranche C term facility, while stockholders’ equity more than doubled to $1.50 billion.
