Westport Fuel Systems Inc. is a leading supplier of advanced fuel delivery components and systems for clean, low-carbon fuels such as natural gas, renewable natural gas, propane, and hydrogen to the global automotive industry. Headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, the company operates in Europe, Asia, North America, and South America, serving approximately 70 countries.
In its first quarter of 2025 financial results, Westport Fuel Systems reported a significant reduction in net loss to $2.5 million from $13.6 million in the previous year, despite a 9% decrease in revenue to $71.0 million. The company attributed the improvement to increased gross profit and reduced operating expenses.
Key financial highlights include a $3.5 million increase in gross profit and an $8.1 million decrease in operating expenses. The company also reported a substantial improvement in adjusted EBITDA, moving from negative $6.6 million in the previous year to nil. The proposed sale of the light-duty business is expected to realign Westport’s focus on long-haul and heavy-duty trucking applications, leveraging its HPDI technology.
Westport’s strategic focus is on scaling alternative fuel solutions, including LNG, CNG, RNG, and hydrogen systems, with the Cespira joint venture with Volvo Group showing promising growth. Volvo’s gas-powered trucks using HPDI technology saw a sales increase of over 25% in 2024, a trend that continued into the first quarter of 2025.
Looking forward, Westport Fuel Systems aims to strengthen its position in the alternative fuel market, focusing on providing sustainable, high-performance solutions that meet the growing demand for clean transportation technologies.
