Company Guidance
During the second quarter of 2025, Timken experienced a slight decline in total sales, down less than 1% from the previous year, with organic sales dropping by 2.5%. Adjusted EBITDA margins were reported at 17.7%, and adjusted EPS was $1.42, both lower than the prior year due to reduced volumes, increased tariff costs, and unfavorable currency impacts.
