JBT Marel Corporation Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results and Announces Increased Share Repurchase Authorization
Third Quarter 2026 Highlights:
- Achieved net income margin of 7.0 percent, and adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.0 percent, both of which were record quarterly levels
- Utilized strong cash flow to repurchase approximately 800,000 shares for $94 million
- Delivered diluted earnings per share of $1.34, and adjusted earnings per share of $2.19
- Announcing increased share repurchase program, with full program now totaling $700 million
CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–JBT Marel Corporation(NYSE and Nasdaq Iceland: JBTM), a leading global technology solutions provider to high-value segments of the food & beverage industry, today reported financial results for the third quarter of 2026.
“We executed well in a dynamic environment, delivering third quarter adjusted EBITDA and margins above the midpoint of our guidance, notwithstanding lower book-and-ship volume,” said Brian Deck, Chief Executive Officer. “Our strong quarterly and year-to-date margins reflect the meaningful benefits from our cost synergy initiatives, including labor productivity, supply chain savings, and footprint optimization. The commitment to our margin improvement program will continue to drive results even amid inflationary and tariff pressures.”
“We are revising our full-year 2026 revenue outlook to reflect lower, near-term CPG-related volume expectations, and at the same time, are increasing the midpoint of our margin guidance as we continue to drive operational efficiencies and disciplined cost management,” added Deck.
Increased Share Repurchase Authorization
On October 30, 2026, JBT Marel’s Board of Directors authorized a $500 million increase to the existing share repurchase program. The full share repurchase authorization now totals $700 million. The Company expects any share repurchases to be balanced to maintain a leverage ratio within the desired long-term range of 2.0 – 2.5x.
JBT Marel Third Quarter 2026 Consolidated Results
“We utilized our strong third quarter cash flow to repurchase approximately 800,000 shares and return $94 million to shareholders,” said Matt Meister, Chief Financial Officer. “The increased share purchase program announced today provides greater flexibility to opportunistically repurchase shares when we believe our stock is trading below the long-term value of JBT Marel. We view share repurchases as an important component of our disciplined capital allocation strategy and a compelling use of capital when the valuation warrants.”
Third quarter 2026 consolidated revenue of $994 million declined 1 percent. Revenue was below Company expectations due to lower CPG-related book-and-ship business within the Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions segment. Net income of $70 million increased 6 percent, and net income margin of 7.0 percent improved 30 basis points. Foreign exchange translation had a minimal impact on results.
Third quarter 2026 consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $179 million increased 5 percent, and adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.0 percent improved 90 basis points. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $1.34 compared to $1.26. Adjusted EPS was $2.19 compared to $1.94. Orders totaled $976 million, and quarter-ending backlog was $1.52 billion.
Year to date 2026 operating cash flow was $320 million, and free cash flow was $252 million. As of September 30, 2026, the Company’s net debt to trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA was 2.45x after returning $94 million to shareholders through share repurchases.

Third quarter 2026 Protein Solutions segment revenue increased 6 percent, primarily driven by volume growth in the Poultry business. Segment adjusted EBITDA margin improved 110 basis points, primarily driven by the benefits of volume leverage, pricing, and cost synergy realization. Foreign exchange translation had a minimal impact on segment results.
Third quarter 2026 Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions segment revenue declined 6 percent, primarily reflecting lower revenue within the Diversified Food and Health business due to softer CPG-related book-and-ship volume. Segment adjusted EBITDA margin improved 90 basis points as benefits from restructuring within the warehouse automation business along with overall segment mix, cost synergy realization, and pricing more than offset lower volume leverage impacts. Sequentially, adjusted EBITDA margin improved 170 basis points. Foreign exchange translation had a minimal impact on segment results.
JBT Marel Outlook
JBT Marel is refining its full-year 2026 revenue, net income, and adjusted EBITDA guidance to primarily reflect lower third quarter book-and-ship revenue and revised fourth quarter expectations for the Diversified Food and Health business within the Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions segment. At the same time, JBT Marel increased the midpoint of its margin guidance, reflecting strong operational execution and cost management. The Company also increased the midpoint of its EPS guidance to reflect lower interest expense, taxes, and share count. The table below reflects consolidated guidance.

Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliations to GAAP Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted income, Adjusted diluted earnings per share (“Adjusted EPS”), and Free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. JBT Marel provides non-GAAP financial measures in order to increase transparency in our operating results and trends. These non-GAAP measures eliminate certain costs or benefits from, or change the calculation of, a measure as calculated under U.S. GAAP. By eliminating these items, JBT Marel provides a more meaningful comparison of our ongoing operating results, consistent with how management evaluates performance. Management uses these non-GAAP measures in financial and operational evaluation, planning and forecasting. These calculations may differ from similarly-titled measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed are not intended to be used as a substitute for, nor should they be considered in isolation of, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures can be found in the supplemental schedules to this release.

Presentation of Percentage Calculations
Effective in 2026, percentage amounts presented in this press release have been calculated using rounded figures. In prior periods, percentage amounts were calculated using the unrounded underlying values rather than the rounded figures presented. As a result, certain percentage amounts in this section may differ slightly from percentages calculated using the figures presented in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements or the accompanying narrative.

The factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, the following factors: fluctuations in our financial results; termination or loss of major customer contracts and risks associated with fixed-price contracts, particularly during periods of high inflation; catastrophic loss at any of our facilities and business continuity of our information systems; loss of key management and other personnel; our ability to remediate the material weaknesses relating to the Marel financial statements; deterioration of economic conditions, including impacts from supply chain delays and reduced material or component availability; unanticipated delays or acceleration in our sales cycles; inflationary pressures, including increases in energy, raw material, freight, and labor costs; changes in food consumption patterns; weather conditions and natural disasters; impacts of pandemic illnesses, food borne illnesses and diseases to various agricultural products; work stoppages; customer sourcing initiatives; competition and innovation in our industries; disruptions in the political, regulatory, economic and social conditions of the countries in which we conduct business; changes to tariffs, trade regulations, quotas, or duties; potential liability arising out of the installation or use of our systems; the impact of climate change and environmental protection initiatives; our ability to comply with U.S. and international laws governing our operations and industries; increases in tax liabilities; risks related to acquisitions, such as our ability to integrate the acquisitions we have consummated, including the integration of the legacy businesses of JBT and Marel; our ability to develop and introduce new or enhanced products and services and keep pace with technological developments; difficulty in developing, preserving and protecting our intellectual property or defending claims of infringement; cybersecurity risks such as network intrusion or ransomware schemes; our convertible note hedge and warrant transactions; the maintenance of two stock exchange listings; fluctuations in currency exchange rates and interest rates; our level of indebtedness; availability of and access to financial and other resources; and the factors described under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any future Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
If one or more of those or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may vary materially from what we projected. Consequently, actual events and results may vary significantly from those included in or contemplated or implied by our forward-looking statements.

The above table reports free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We use free cash flow internally as a key indicator of our liquidity and ability to service debt, invest in business combinations, and return money to shareholders and believe this information is useful to investors because it provides an understanding of the cash available to fund these initiatives. |
