Profitability Pressures: Adjusted EBITDA was negative $5.9 million, down from negative $0.8 million last year, reflecting lower gross profit after divestitures.
Improved Cash Position: Cash and cash equivalents rose to $33.1 million, boosted by proceeds from the Light-Duty business sale, with debt reduced to $3.9 million.
Gross Margin Expansion: Gross margin improved to 31% from 14% last year, helped by higher-margin engineering services.
