Dana Incorporated ( (DAN) ) just unveiled an announcement.

On January 21, 2026, Dana Incorporated reported preliminary full-year 2025 financial results at the high end of its expectations, including approximately $7.5 billion in sales, about $600 million in adjusted EBITDA (8% of sales), and roughly $315 million in adjusted free cash flow. During 2025 the company completed the $2.7 billion enterprise-value sale of its Off-Highway business, achieved around $250 million in cost savings, returned $704 million to shareholders, and repurchased 34 million shares, reducing shares outstanding to 112.3 million and signaling an aggressive capital return and portfolio-streamlining strategy. Dana also used proceeds from the divestiture to reduce debt by $1.9 billion, raised its cumulative cost-savings target to $325 million, and announced a $750 million three-year new business backlog, including $200 million of incremental revenue expected in 2026 from next-generation vehicle platforms. For 2026, the company issued preliminary guidance of $7.30–$7.70 billion in sales, $750–$850 million in adjusted EBITDA with implied margins of 10–11%, and $250–$350 million in adjusted free cash flow, underscoring a shift toward higher profitability, a stronger balance sheet, and continued shareholder returns, and it plans to further detail its strategy at a Capital Markets Day on March 25, 2026.

Spark’s Take on DAN Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, DAN is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance signals, especially cash flow deterioration and declining revenue/margins. Offsetting this, the earnings call and subsequent corporate actions (asset sale and debt reduction) improve the outlook and balance-sheet flexibility, while technicals show a strong uptrend but with overextended momentum. Valuation remains a meaningful headwind due to the very high P/E.
