KN Earnings Call
Q4 2026
0:00 / 0:00
Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call communicated strong financial results, margin expansion, robust cash generation, a healthy backlog, and clear growth drivers (precision devices, specialty film/energy, medtech and defense), while also acknowledging concentrated near-term execution risks tied to the specialty film ramp, modest Q1 seasonality in cash flow, and some supply/capacity uncertainty. Overall, the positive items—notably above-guidance revenue and EPS, improved EBITDA and low leverage—outweigh the operational ramp and timing risks.View all KN earnings summariesKN Stock 12 Month Forecast
