CEO Comments

“Our team’s focus on production linearity and operational excellence delivered another period of profitable growth. Through consistent execution and improved supplier performance, we increased North American transit bus and motorcoach deliveries, contributing to 47% growth in manufacturing Adjusted EBITDA and stronger margins,” said John Sapp, President and Chief Executive Officer, NFI.

“Manufacturing performance, solid contributions from our aftermarket business, and the completion of our Canadian bond issuance increased liquidity and supported progress toward our leverage target. As we focus on delivering the best customer experience and advancing the transition to our next-generation battery-electric bus platforms, we made the deliberate decision to begin a sale process for certain battery cells held in inventory. While this resulted in an impairment charge in the quarter, it is expected to accelerate the monetization of those assets over the next 12 to 18 months.

“Our performance through the first three quarters gives us additional confidence in our 2026 guidance. As a result, we have raised the lower end of our Adjusted EBITDA guidance by $10 million, now implying a year-over-year improvement of 18% to 24%. This progress demonstrates the strength of NFI’s business and our operating momentum,” Sapp concluded.

Segment Results

Manufacturing

• Manufacturing revenue of $836.7 million increased by 15.8% from 2025 Q3, reflecting higher deliveries in North American transit and motorcoach, with conversion of backlog and positive sales mix, offset by lower deliveries in the medium-duty and cutaway segment and international transit.
• Manufacturing net earnings of $9.1 million, an increase of $141.0 million from 2025 Q3, driven by higher revenues and improved gross margins. The comparative period in 2025 Q3 was impacted by the provision related to the battery recall.
• Manufacturing Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $78.3 million, increased by 46.8% year-over-year, with a reported Adjusted EBITDA¹ margin of 9.4%.
• At quarter-end, the Company's total backlog¹ of 14,507 EUs with a total value of $12.5 billion was relatively flat sequentially on both an EU and dollar basis.
• NFI added 1,214 EUs of new orders in the quarter, supporting an LTM Book-to-Bill ratio¹ of 132.8%.
  

Aftermarket

• Aftermarket revenue of $170.7 million increased by 8.7% from 2025 Q3, driven by increased public sales volumes and increased sales volumes from mid-life retrofit programs.
• Aftermarket revenue growth and margin improvement supported net earnings growth of 26.5%, reaching $29.1 million.
• Aftermarket Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $35.1 million, increased by 23.9%, with an Adjusted EBITDA¹ margin of 20.6%.
  

Consolidated Net Earnings, Adjusted Net Earnings¹, and Return on Invested Capital¹

• Net Earnings of $0.1 million ($0.0004 Net Earnings per Share), improved by $141.0 million, with higher operational performance from the manufacturing and aftermarket segments, offset by an impairment charge related to the potential sale of battery cells, higher interest and finance costs, and higher income tax expenses.
• Adjusted Net Earnings¹ of $35.4 million ($0.2970 Adjusted Net Earnings¹ per Share), was up $23.2 million from 2025 Q3, and is normalized to remove non-recurring items and fair market value adjustments.
• ROIC¹ increased to 14.5% from 9.1% in 2025 Q3, primarily due to increases in LTM operating results and a lower average invested capital base.
  

Market Outlook

Management anticipates continued improvement in operational and financial performance, including growth in revenue, gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA¹, Free Cash Flow¹, and ROIC¹ in 2026 and beyond. This improvement is expected to be driven by the conversion of NFI’s backlog¹, higher North American vehicle deliveries, growth in NFI’s aftermarket business and the improved cost structure within NFI’s international operations. While there are numerous positive expectations, the Company continues to navigate evolving macroeconomic conditions including tariffs, increasing competition and government funding dynamics, which may negatively impact growth and financial performance.

Several key factors drive management’s overall performance expectations:

• New Order Activity and Market Demand: NFI received orders for 4,409 EUs on an LTM basis, with expectations of continued order success for the remainder of 2026 and into 2027 reflecting strong customer demand in NFI’s transit, motorcoach, and medium-duty markets. NFI’s North American Public Bid Universe remains strong with active bids of 7,793 EUs, and a five-year forecasted customer demand of approximately 23,449 EUs, up 2.1% from the same period in 2025.
• Public Transit Ridership Stability and Increasing Fleet Age: Ridership levels in the U.S. continue to see strong recovery, with the latest available American Public Transportation Association (APTA) Ridership Trends Dashboard report showing 2026 Q2 LTM bus ridership is up 3.2% from the same twelve-month period in 2025. APTA also reports that the average fleet age is at 8.2 years, and the Canadian Urban Transit Association reports the average age at 10.4 years.
• Increasing Deliveries Support Margin Improvement: NFI expects increased vehicle deliveries from North American transit backlog conversion and higher motorcoach volumes. These higher deliveries are expected to improve overhead and fixed cost absorption within the manufacturing segment.
• Strong Aftermarket Contribution: NFI continues to see opportunities for medium-to longer-term aftermarket growth from increased public market sales, dedicated program revenues and increased e-commerce and shuttle bus parts sales.

Financial Guidance

NFI has updated its financial guidance for Fiscal 2026 summarized in the table below.

2026 Guidance ($ millions)	Previous Guidance		Updated Guidance
Revenue	$4,000 to $4,200		$4,000 to $4,200
Adjusted EBITDA1	$385 to $415		$395 to $415
Cash Capital Expenditures	$55 to $65		$55 to $65

Details on the assumptions and expectations for guidance are outlined within NFI’s MD&A dated November 5, 2026. Further details that support NFI’s original guidance, and the previous guidance range, are provided in NFI’s MD&A dated March 11, 2026 and August 6, 2026. Note that the guidance numbers above include the impact of all current and known U.S. and Canadian tariffs as of November 5, 2026, but do not reflect the potential impact of tariffs and other trade measures that may be imposed in the future.

Tariff Impacts

NFI is subject to tariffs on imports of steel and aluminum in the U.S. and Canada, and tariffs on imports of other goods from various international jurisdictions. NFI has also seen increases to pricing from its suppliers reflecting the impacts of tariffs on input components its suppliers source and import into the U.S. NFI’s motorcoaches are also subject to a 10% tariff on all imports of motorcoaches into the United States from any jurisdiction. This impacts private motorcoaches that are manufactured in Winnipeg and motorcoach shells that are started in Winnipeg and completed in the U.S. NFI has continued to actively engage with its customers to discuss the pricing impacts of all known tariffs on buses and motorcoaches and has been negotiating and charging surcharges to reflect the costs of those tariffs.

The guidance ranges referred to above do not take into account and may be materially adversely affected by changes to tariffs and trade policy, government funding and supply chain performance. Tariff-driven cost increases may be more difficult to offset on future deliveries, especially within the private motorcoach market. There may also be near-term cash flow implications on NFI’s operations due to the timing of tariff payments, deliveries, and revenue collection, and potential decreases in order sizes due to higher prices. The impact that any future tariffs, U.S. funding developments and other trade measures could have on general economic conditions, supply chain health, customer demand and the Company’s business is uncertain and could be materially adverse. In addition, there remains a risk of additional supply or operational disruptions beyond management’s current expectations especially given conflicts currently ongoing in Iran, Ukraine, Russia and other jurisdictions.

Footnotes:

1. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss), and Free Cash Flow represent non-IFRS measures; Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) per Share, Total Leverage and Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC") are non-IFRS ratios; and Liquidity and Backlog are supplementary financial measures. Such measures and ratios are not defined terms under IFRS and do not have standard meanings, so they may not be a reliable way to compare NFI to other companies. Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) per Share is based on the non-IFRS measure Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss). Total Leverage is based on total debt (includes senior unsecured notes, long-term debt, second lien debt, convertible debentures, and obligations under leases) less cash, divided by Adjusted EBITDA. ROIC is based on net operating profit after tax and average invested capital, both of which are non-IFRS measures. Book-to-Bill Ratio is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as new firm orders and exercised options divided by new deliveries. Backlog value is not a recognized measure under IFRS Accounting Standards and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. The Company defines backlog as the number of EUs in the backlog multiplied by their expected selling price. See “Non-IFRS Measures” and detailed reconciliations of IFRS Measures to non-IFRS Measures in the Appendices of this press release. Readers are advised to review the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for 2026 Q3 (including notes) (the “Financial Statements”) and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis (the "MD&A").
2. Results noted herein are for the 13-week period ("2026 Q3”) and the 52-week period ("2026 Q3 LTM”) ended September 27, 2026. The comparisons reported in this press release compare 2026 Q3 to the 13-week period ("2025 Q3") and 2026 Q3 LTM to the 52-week period ("2025 Q3 LTM") ended September 28, 2025. Comparisons and comments are also made to the 13-week period (“2026 Q2”) period ended June 28, 2026. The term “LTM” is an abbreviation for “Last Twelve-Month Period”.

Appendix A - Reconciliation Tables

Reconciliation of Net Earnings (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA^NG and Net Operating Profit after Taxes^NG

Non-IFRS measures in the appendices of this press release have been denoted with an "NG". Please see Appendix B: “Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures” section.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA^NG, and Net Operating Profit After Taxes ("NOPAT")^NG are important measures in evaluating the historical operating performance of the Company. However, Adjusted EBITDA^NG and NOPAT^NG are not recognized earnings measures under IFRS Accounting Standards and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA^NG and NOPAT^NG may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Readers of this press release are cautioned that Adjusted EBITDA^NG should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings or loss determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards and NOPAT^NG should not be construed as an alternative to earnings (loss) from operations determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as an indicator of the Company's performance. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA^NG as earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization after adjusting for the effects of certain non-recurring, non-operating, and items occurring outside of normal operations that do not reflect the current ongoing cash operations of the Company. These adjustments are provided in the following table reconciling net earnings or losses to Adjusted EBITDA^NG based on the historical financial statements of the Company for the periods indicated. The Company defines NOPAT^NG as Adjusted EBITDA^NG less depreciation of plant and equipment, depreciation of right-of-use assets and income taxes at a rate of 31%.

(Footnotes on page 8)

Free Cash Flow^NG and Free Cash Flow per Share^NG

Management uses Free Cash Flow^NG and Free Cash Flow per Share^NG as non-IFRS measures to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and liquidity^NG, to assess the Company’s ability to pay dividends on the Shares, service debt, pay interest on the Debentures and meet other payment obligations. However, Free Cash Flow^NG and Free Cash Flow per Share^NG are not recognized earnings measures under IFRS Accounting Standards and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Accordingly, Free Cash Flow^NG and the associated per Share figure may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Readers of this press release are cautioned that Free Cash Flow^NG should not be construed as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as a measure of liquidity^NG and cash flow. The Company defines Free Cash Flow^NG as net cash generated by or used in operating activities adjusted for changes in non-cash working capital items and adjusted for items as shown in the reconciliation of net cash generated by operating activities (an IFRS Accounting Standards measure) to Free Cash Flow^NG based on the Company’s historical financial statements.

The Company generates its Free Cash Flow^NG from operations and management expects this will continue to be the case for the foreseeable future. Net cash flows generated from operating activities are significantly impacted by changes in non-cash working capital. The Company uses its 2025 First Lien Facility to finance working capital and therefore has excluded the impact of working capital in calculating Free Cash Flow^NG.

The Company defines Free Cash Flow per Share^NG as Free Cash Flow^NG divided by the average number of Shares outstanding.

1. U.S. exchange rate (C$ per US$) is the average exchange rate for the period.
2. Changes in non-cash working capital are excluded from the calculation of Free Cash Flow^NG as these temporary fluctuations are managed through the 2025 First Lien Facility which is available to fund general corporate requirements, including working capital requirements, subject to borrowing capacity restrictions. Changes in non-cash working capital are presented on the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of cash flows net of interest and income taxes paid.
3. The cash effect of the difference between the defined benefit expense and funding is included in the determination of cash from operating activities. This cash effect is excluded in the determination of Free Cash Flow^NG as management believes that the defined benefit expense amount provides a more appropriate measure, as the defined benefit funding can be impacted by special payments to reduce the unfunded pension liability as well as payment holidays associated with pension surpluses.
4. Foreign exchange gain or loss on cash held in foreign currency is excluded in the determination of cash from operating activities under IFRS Accounting Standards; however, because it is a cash item, management believes it should be included in the calculation of Free Cash Flow^NG.
5. Per Share calculations for Free Cash Flow^NG (C$) are determined by dividing Free Cash FlowNG by the total number of all issued and outstanding Shares using the weighted average over the period. The weighted average number of Shares outstanding for 2026 Q3 was 119,161,880 and 119,128,798 for 2025 Q3. The weighted average number of Shares outstanding for 2026 Q3 LTM and 2025 Q3 LTM was 119,119,648 and 119,072,938 respectively.
6. Normalized to exclude non-operating restructuring costs. Costs primarily related to severance costs, labour inefficiencies, medical costs, right-of-use asset impairments, and inventory impairments associated with restructuring initiatives. In 2025 Q2, NFI recorded a $14.8 million restructuring provision related to the expected employee reductions at Alexander Dennis. In 2025 Q3, with the advocacy and intervention of the Scottish government and Scottish Enterprise, NFI announced that the Scottish manufacturing sites would remain open. This resulted in net recoveries of $7.9 million related to previously expected employee reductions. In 2025 Q4, NFI recorded $3.5 million of non-operating restructuring costs related to Alexander Dennis. On March 31 2026, the Company announced that the Falkirk, Scotland manufacturing site would be closed and the Larbert, Scotland site would be converted to manufacture chassis. This resulted in a write-off of the furlough receivable from the Scottish government, as well as other restructuring costs totaling $7.5 million in 2026 Q1. In 2026 Q3, ongoing restructuring costs related to the Falkirk, Scotland closure totaled $3.7 million, while other restructuring costs, including customer related and labour disruption costs, totaled $1.1 million.

The 2025 second lien optional redemption had a loss of $5.6 million in 2026 Q3 compared to $3.5 million loss in 2025 Q3. The optional redemption relating to the 2026 Senior Unsecured Notes had a fair market value loss of $1.2 million in 2026 Q3, after being initially recognized at a fair value of $8.4 million at issuance on July 21, 2026.
8. Includes adjustments made related to items that occurred outside of normal operations. In 2026 Q3, the Company incurred $1.8 million of CEO transition costs and other executive compensation expenses. In 2026 Q2, the Company incurred $1.3 million of CEO transition costs. In 2026 Q1, the Company incurred $1.7 million in CEO transition costs and legal expenses related to the Battery Recall and Battery Settlement. 2025 Q3 LTM included $35.9 million in labour and overhead costs related to seat supply disruption.
9. The 2025 Q3 LTM period includes an $80.9 million intangible asset impairment and a $10.0 million goodwill impairment related to the Alexander Dennis manufacturing business unit. The 2026 Q3 LTM period includes a $2.7 million intangible asset impairment loss related to a new product development project.
10. In 2025 Q2, the Company recognized an accounting loss of $43.2 million for the debt extinguishment as a result of the Company's comprehensive refinancing with the 2025 First Lien Facility.
11. In 2025 Q2, NFI recorded impairments related to the reductions in expected new vehicle demand in response to increased competition within the UK market. This resulted in property, plant and equipment impairment of $4.3 million within the Alexander Dennis manufacturing business unit. In 2025 Q3, with the advocacy and intervention of the Scottish government and Scottish Enterprise, NFI announced that the Scottish manufacturing sites would remain open. This resulted in recoveries of $3.8 million in 2025 Q3 related to the previous impairment recorded on property, plant and equipment.
12. In 2025 Q2, the Company incurred an early repayment fee of $10.8 million associated with the 2023 second lien debt.
13. In 2025 Q2, NFI recorded an impairment on the previously recorded California Air Resources Board (CARB) credit of $1.6 million.
14. During 2025 Q3, NFI declared a Battery Recall related to certain battery modules from XALT. The recall impacted approximately 700 battery-electric buses and coaches (primarily New Flyer buses). In 2025 Q4, NFI reached a settlement with XALT Energy, LLC and its parent company. As part of this settlement, NFI received cash and assets totaling $166.0 million. This also includes other miscellaneous amounts related to the Battery Settlement. Costs related to the management of the Battery Recall program totaled $3.1 million in 2026 Q1, $1.2 million in 2026 Q2, and $35.2 million in 2026 Q3.

In 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3, NFI reported equity method losses of $4.6 million and $1.7 million respectively.
17. A portion of the fair value adjustment of the total return swap is added to Free Cash Flow^NG to match the equivalent portion of the related deferred compensation expense recognized. In 2026 Q2, hedge accounting was applied to the total return swap derivative and therefore, the portion of the loss on the fair value adjustment, which does not apply to the current periods is recognized in other comprehensive income. The portion recognized in Free Cash Flow^NG was $3.3 million in 2026 Q2 and minimal in 2026 Q3.
    

Reconciliation of Net Earnings (Loss) to Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss)^NG

Management believes that Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss)^NG and the associated per Share figure are important measures in evaluating the historical operating performance of the Company. Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss)^NG and Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) per Share^NG are not recognized measures under IFRS Accounting Standards and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Accordingly, Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss)^NG and Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) per Share^NG may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Readers of this press release are cautioned that Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss)^NG and Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) per Share^NG should not be construed as an alternative to net loss, or net loss per share, determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as indicators of the Company's performance.

The Company defines Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss)^NG as net earnings (loss) after adjusting for the after tax effects of certain non-recurring, non-operating and items occurring outside of normal operation, that do not reflect the current ongoing cash operations of the Company. These adjustments are provided in the following reconciliation of net earnings (loss) to Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss)^NG based on the historical financial statements of the Company for the periods indicated.

The Company defines Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss)^NG per share as Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss)^NG divided by the average number of Shares outstanding.

Appendix B - Non-IFRS Measures and Forward-Looking Statements

Non-IFRS Measures

References to “Adjusted EBITDA” are to earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization after adjusting for the effects of certain non-recurring and/or non-operations related items and expenses incurred outside the normal course of operations that do not reflect the current ongoing cash operations of the Company. These adjustments include gains or losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment, fair value adjustment for total return swap, unrealized foreign exchange losses or gains on non-current monetary items and forward foreign exchange contracts, costs associated with assessing strategic and corporate initiatives, past service costs and other pension costs or recovery, non-operating costs or recoveries related to business acquisition, fair value adjustment to acquired subsidiary company's inventory and deferred revenue, proportion of the total return swap realized, equity settled stock-based compensation, expenses incurred outside the normal course of operations, recovery of currency transactions, prior year sales tax provision, COVID-19 costs and impairment loss on goodwill and non-operating restructuring costs.

References to "NOPAT" are to Adjusted EBITDA less depreciation of plant and equipment, depreciation of right-of-use assets and income taxes at a rate of 31%.

“Free Cash Flow” means net cash generated by or used in operating activities adjusted for changes in non-cash working capital items, interest paid, interest expense, income taxes paid, current income tax expense, repayment of obligation under lease, cash capital expenditures, acquisition of intangible assets, proceeds from disposition of property, plant and equipment, costs associated with assessing strategic and corporate initiatives, fair value adjustment to acquired subsidiary company's inventory and deferred revenue, defined benefit funding, defined benefit expense, past service costs and other pension costs or recovery, expenses incurred outside the normal course of operations, proportion of total return swap, unrecoverable insurance costs, prior year sales tax provision, non-operating restructuring costs, extraordinary COVID-19 costs, foreign exchange gain or loss on cash held in foreign currency.

References to "ROIC" are to NOPAT divided by average invested capital for the last twelve month period (calculated as to shareholders’ equity plus long-term debt, obligations under leases, other long-term liabilities and derivative financial instrument liabilities less cash).

“Invested Capital” is not a recognized measure under IFRS and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. Management believes that Invested Capital is an important measure in evaluating the Company’s financial position. The Company defines Invested Capital as total interest-bearing debt plus derivative liabilities plus equity less cash on hand.

“Book-to-Bill ratio” is not a recognized measure under IFRS and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. The Company defines Book-to-Bill ratio as new firm orders and exercised options divided by new deliveries.

“Total Leverage Ratio” is not a recognized measure under IFRS Accounting Standards and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. This ratio is calculated as total debt less cash, divided by Adjusted EBITDA¹ (calculated on a trailing twelve-month basis). Total debt includes senior unsecured notes, long-term debt, second lien debt, convertible debentures, and obligations under leases.

References to "Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss)" are to net earnings (loss) after adjusting for the after tax effects of certain non-recurring and/or non-operational related items that do not reflect the current ongoing cash operations of the Company including: fair value adjustments of total return swap, unrealized foreign exchange loss or gain, unrealized gain or loss on the interest rate swap, impairment loss on goodwill, portion of the total return swap realized, costs associated with assessing strategic and corporate initiatives, fair value adjustment to acquired subsidiary company's inventory and deferred revenue, equity settled stock-based compensation, gain or loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment, past service costs and other pension costs or recovery, recovery on currency transactions, expenses incurred outside the normal course of operations prior year sales tax provision, COVID-19 costs and non-operating restructuring costs .

References to "Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) per Share" are to Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) divided by the average number of Shares outstanding.

Management believes Adjusted EBITDA, ROIC, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) and Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) per Share are useful measures in evaluating the performance of the Company. However, Adjusted EBITDA, ROIC, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share are not recognized earnings or cash flow measures under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Readers of this press release are cautioned that ROIC, Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings or loss or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of NFI’s performance, and Free Cash Flow should not be construed as an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities determined in accordance with IFRS as a measure of liquidity and cash flows. A reconciliation of net earnings (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA, based on the Financial Statements, has been provided under the headings “Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA and Net Operating Profit After Taxes”. A reconciliation of net earnings (loss) to Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) is provided under the heading “Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted Net Loss”.

NFI's method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA, ROIC, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings per Share may differ materially from the methods used by other issuers and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other issuers. Dividends paid from Free Cash Flow are not assured, and the actual amount of dividends received by holders of Shares will depend on, among other things, the Company's financial performance, debt covenants and obligations, working capital requirements and future capital requirements, all of which are susceptible to a number of risks, as described in NFI’s public filings available on SEDAR at www.sedarplus.ca.

"Liquidity" is not a recognized measure under IFRS and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. The Company defines liquidity as cash on-hand plus available capacity under its 2025 First Lien Facility.

“Backlog” value is not a recognized measure under IFRS and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. The Company defines backlog as the number of EUs in the backlog multiplied by their expected selling price.

References to NFI's geographic regions for the purpose of reporting global revenues are as follows: "North America" refers to Canada, United States, and Mexico; United Kingdom and Europe refer to the United Kingdom and Europe; and "Asia Pacific" or "APAC" refers to Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Australia, and New Zealand.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking information” and “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws, which reflect the expectations of management regarding the Company’s future growth, financial performance and liquidity and the Company’s strategic initiatives, plans, business prospects and opportunities, including the repeat costs and remedies relating to the Battery Recall, the impact of and recovery from supply chain disruptions and plans to address them, the steps the Company plans to take to improve liquidity and the impact of tariffs, other trade measures and U.S. policy developments regarding federal vehicle funding. The words “believes”, “views”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “expects”, “intends”, “projects”, “forecasts”, “estimates”, “guidance”, “goals”, “objectives”, “targets” and similar words or expressions of future events or conditional verbs such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “could”, “would” are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect management’s current expectations regarding future events and the Company’s financial and operating performance and speak only as of the date of this press release. By their very nature, forward-looking statements require management to make assumptions and involve significant risks and uncertainties, should not be read as guarantees of future events, performance or results, and give rise to the possibility that management’s predictions, forecasts, projections, expectations or conclusions will not prove to be accurate, that the assumptions may not be correct and that the Company’s future growth, financial condition, ability to generate sufficient cash flow, maintain adequate liquidity and manage supply chain disruptions and the Company’s strategic initiatives, objectives, plans, business prospects and opportunities, will not occur or be achieved.

The Company continues to experience various global and regional supply chain and logistics challenges, inflationary price increases for parts, components and other inputs used in the manufacturing processes, as well as labour shortages. The Company is currently working through a battery recall. The Company has taken and continues to take various steps to mitigate these issues (including the current North American seat supply issue and battery recall), but they continue to have a significant negative impact on the Company’s business, operating results, financial condition and liquidity. These issues may continue and/or worsen, including as the Company continues to ramp up production levels. While NFI has experienced significant improvement in overall supplier performance, the supply of certain parts and components continues to be challenged and may deteriorate, including with respect to other parts and components. There can be no assurance as to if or when production operations will return to pre-pandemic production rates or deliveries. Supply chain issues could also potentially expose the Company to liquidated damages penalties under certain transit bus and motorcoach purchase contracts if it is unable to meet the applicable delivery deadlines under such contacts. While the Company is closely managing its liquidity, it is possible that various events (such as delayed deliveries and customer acceptances, delayed customer payments, supply chain issues, product recalls and warranty claims) could significantly impair the Company’s liquidity and there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain additional liquidity when required in such circumstances. In addition, as the Company is in the process of ramping up production levels and an increasing percentage of the Company’s orders are ZEBs that have a higher manufacturing cost, the Company’s working capital requirements have increased compared to prior years. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain sufficient liquidity for an extended period or have access to additional capital when required in such circumstances and the Company’s financial performance and condition, cash flow and liquidity and its ability to maintain compliance with the covenants under its credit facilities may be impaired.

The level, type, coverage and duration of tariffs and other trade measures imposed by the US, Canada and China is fluidly evolving and may continue to change and evolve in unpredictable ways. The impact of tariffs and other trade measures on general economic conditions, customer demand and on the Company’s business is uncertain and may be significant. Such impacts may include general inflationary pressures as well as new and exacerbated supply chain disruptions leading to production inefficiencies, delivery delays and additional liquidity deterioration. It is impossible to predict the full impact on the Company of tariffs or other trade actions, and if they are in place for an extended period they may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results, financial condition and liquidity and may result in the Company not achieving its finalized guidance. In addition, U.S. federal funding for transit buses and motorcoaches, including electric vehicles, could potentially be significantly reduced as a result of the U.S. administration’s recent executive orders and potential policy changes. This could significantly impact the ability of U.S. transit agencies to purchase vehicles from the Company, which would likely have the most significant impact on purchases of electric vehicles. There can be no assurance as to the continuation or future amount of U.S. federal funding for transit bus and motorcoach purchases.

Specific reference is made to the factors described above in this press release and in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Information Form for a discussion of the factors that may affect forward-looking statements and information.
