Dan Sceli: In North America, CNG remains a dominant choice for fleets seeking lower operating costs and reduced emissions. Actively looking to expand presence in these regions, we continue to drive innovation through the testing of a CNG HPDI fuel system solution. With our high-pressure controls and systems business, we are developing high-pressure components that are critical to performance and reliability. As a reminder, we are selling into three primary markets: China, Europe, and North America. Currently, China accounts for over 50% of Westport Fuel Systems Inc.'s revenue in this segment, almost exclusively focused on hydrogen component sales. Supported by multi-layered government support spanning from comprehensive national strategies to targeted regional incentives, funding mechanisms, infrastructure mandates, and industry collaboration, the Chinese hydrogen market is anticipated to continue to drive growth for Westport Fuel Systems Inc.

Dan Sceli: To drive success in this market, we are opening a state-of-the-art hydrogen innovation center and manufacturing facility in China in late 2025. This pioneering facility will serve as a hub for research, development, and collaboration to meet the increasing demand for hydrogen transportation solutions in the region. The new facility enables us to better serve local customers and partners, driving clean energy advancements in one of the world's largest economies. Excitingly, as part of Westport Fuel Systems Inc.'s global restructuring, the company is relocating its European high-pressure controls and systems manufacturing operations to our existing technology center in Canada, aligning the manufacturing facility with our innovation hub in North America.

Dan Sceli: This move enables flexibility in product design, increased speed to market, and bolsters our commitment to delivering top-tier clean transportation solutions to global markets while also assessing potential expansion of CNG and RNG systems, creating incremental growth avenues that allow us to strategically refocus on the North America transportation market, where the near-term focus has shifted away from hydrogen. Our key focus going forward recognizes both the opportunities and challenges in overall market conditions. We have already begun a strong internal process to review additional ways to maximize our economic benefit from this recent transaction for our stakeholders. Our mission is to focus on growth and improving financial results, along with capturing market share.

Speaker #2: Our mission is to focus on growth and improving financial results, along with capturing market share. Our overall drive for market expansion and the move towards generating positive cash flow may not be the smoothest path, but we believe we are uniquely positioned to take advantage of a more pragmatic moment globally, where governments, commercial transport companies, and industrial power providers require more affordable solutions than those that exist today.
Dan Sceli: Our overall drive for market expansion and move towards generating positive cash flow may not be the smoothest path, but we believe we are uniquely positioned to take advantage of a more pragmatic moment globally where governments, commercial transport companies, and industrial power providers require more affordable solutions than those that exist today. That said, in the near term, Sospira will continue to require cash contributions from its owners. As a technology and innovation company connecting synergistic technologies to power a cleaner tomorrow, we are offering our customers the best value of ownership and environmental performance as they continue to prioritize the total equation. The heavy-duty truck market has grown globally, and natural gas is experiencing a revival driven by affordability, abundant infrastructure, and growing production.

Speaker #2: The heavy-duty truck market has grown globally, and natural gas is experiencing a revival driven by affordability, abundant infrastructure, and growing production. In Europe, LNG and RNG adoption for trucking is rebounding sharply, with LNG emerging as the preferred fuel due to its decarbonization potential and superior fuel economy.
Dan Sceli: In Europe, LNG and RNG adoption for trucking is rebounding sharply, with LNG emerging as the preferred fuel due to its decarbonization potential and superior fuel economy. In North America, CNG and RNG are gaining momentum as fleet operators encounter rising skepticism around electrification, citing much higher than expected energy costs and persistent hydrogen distribution challenges. At the same time, key regulations are shifting. For example, California has paused or rolled back mandates like Advanced Clean Fleet, signaling greater flexibility for alternative fuels. CNG, in particular, is emerging as a reliable and cost-effective solution, offering fleets a stable and scalable pathway forward. Sospira's flagship LNG HPDI fuel system technology continues to gain strong traction, particularly in Europe, although we are also seeing fleets adopt the technology in India, South America, Africa, and East Asia.

Dan Sceli: With approximately 9,000 trucks currently on the road, the platform delivered an impressive 25% year-over-year growth in 2024. The latest iteration, featured in the new 500-horsepower Volvo FH Aerocab, achieves a fuel economy of 10 miles per gallon on diesel, far surpassing traditional spark-ignited competitors that typically operate in the six miles per gallon range. This performance gap is cementing HPDI fuel system's reputation as the high-efficiency choice for long-haul transport applications. I will now hand the call over to Bill Larkin so he can provide some more information on the financial results.

Bill Larkin: Thank you, Dan, and good morning. Before going into the specifics of the quarter, I want to highlight that in the second quarter, the light-duty business was accounted for as discontinued operations in the statements of operations and cash flows, while its related assets and liabilities were presented as held for sale, resulting in the light-duty business being presented differently during the second quarter of 2025 than in the past. The prior year comparatives have been reclassified to the current period presentation. Accordingly, please see note five in the financial statements for the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of the company's discontinued operations. Also, as a reminder, the Sospira joint venture was formed in June 2024. So, Q2 of 2024 results include one month with Sospira being accounted for under the equity method following the close of that transaction.
Speaker #4: Thank you, Dan, and good morning. Before going into specifics of the quarter, I want to highlight that in the second quarter, the light-duty business was accounted for as discontinued operations in the statements of operations and cash flows, while its related assets and liabilities were presented as held for sale.

Speaker #4: The prior year comparatives have been reclassified to the current period presentation. Accordingly, please see Note 5 of the financial statements for the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of the company's discontinued operations.
Speaker #4: Also, as a reminder, the Suspira JV was formed in June 2024. So, Q2 of 2024 results include one month with Suspira being accounted for under the equity method following the close of that transaction.
Bill Larkin: Moving into the details of our second quarter results, given we accounted for the light-duty business as part of continued operations, our consolidated revenue from continued operations of $12.5 million for the quarter does not include the $76.4 million generated from the light-duty business in Q2 of 2025. Including the light-duty business revenue, Westport Fuel Systems Inc. generated consolidated revenue of $88.9 million in the quarter as compared to $83.4 million in the same period last year. In addition, Sospira generated $12 million in revenue during Q2 of 2025. The $12.5 million of consolidated revenue from continued operations reported in the second quarter was an 11% decrease from the $14.1 million generated in the same period of last year.

Speaker #4: In addition, Suspira generated $12 million in revenue during Q2 of 2025. The $12.5 million of consolidated revenue from continued operations reported in the second quarter represented an 11% decrease from the $14.1 million generated in the same period last year.
Bill Larkin: This is primarily driven by decreased sales volumes in our high-pressure controls and systems and heavy-duty OEM business segments. We have demonstrated an improvement in adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. We reported an adjusted EBITDA of negative $1 million compared to negative $2 million reported for the same quarter of last year. This was achieved primarily through reduced operating expenses in heavy-duty OEM and corporate. Specifically, operating expenses including R&D, sales and marketing, and G&A were $15.5 million in Q2 of 2025 compared to $21.6 million in Q2 of 2024. This is a clear demonstration of the work we have done against our strategic initiatives to decrease costs. We expect more reductions on a relative basis as we adjust to becoming a smaller organization after the sale of the light-duty business.
Speaker #4: This is primarily driven by decreased sales volumes and our high-pressure controls and systems and heavy-duty OEM. Business segments. We've demonstrated improvement in adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, reporting adjusted EBITDA of negative $1.9 compared to negative $2 million reported for the same quarter last year.

Speaker #4: This is a clear demonstration of the work we have done against our strategic initiatives to decrease costs. We expect more reductions on a relative basis, as we adjust to becoming a smaller organization after the sale of the light-duty business.
Bill Larkin: Our high-pressure controls and systems revenue for Q2 of 2025 was $2.9 million, which was a decrease compared to $3.6 million for Q2 of 2024. This was primarily driven by the slowdown in the hydrogen industry. Gross margin decreased in the quarter to $100,000 or 3% of revenue as compared to $1.1 million or 31% of revenue in Q2 of 2024. The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by lower revenue and an increase in material costs in the quarter. We are moving our manufacturing operations from Italy to Canada and China in Q3 of 2025 to be closer to our customers and to simplify our supply chain operations. Heavy-duty OEM revenue for Q2 of 2025 was $9.6 million. The heavy-duty OEM revenue decrease of $900,000 as compared to the same period last year was a result of the reduction of our manufacturing support to Sospira.
Speaker #4: Our high-pressure controls and systems revenue for Q2 2025 was $2.9 million, representing a decrease compared to $3.6 million for Q2 2024. This decline was primarily driven by the slowdown in the hydrogen industry.
Speaker #4: Gross margin decrease in the quarter to $100,000, or a 3% of revenue, as compared to $1.1 million, or a 31% of revenue, in Q2 of 2024.
Speaker #4: Decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by lower revenue and increase in material costs in the quarter we were moving our manufacturing operations from Italy to Canada and China in the third quarter of 2025 to be closer to our customers and simplify our supply chain operations.
Speaker #4: Heavy-duty OEM revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $9.6 million. The heavy-duty OEM revenue decrease of $900,000 as compared to the same period last year was a result of the reduction of our manufacturing support to Suspira.
Bill Larkin: Starting in Q3 of 2025, Sospira will operate without manufacturing support from Westport Fuel Systems Inc. under the traditional service agreements. Gross margin in our heavy-duty OEM business in Q2 of 2025 was $700,000 or 7% of revenue compared to $1.3 million and 12% of revenue in Q2 of 2024. Sospira generated a revenue of $12 million in Q2 of 2025 as compared to $4.1 million in the same period last year. As I mentioned before, the Sospira joint venture was completed in June of 2024. Therefore, Sospira's Q2 2024 results represent only one month of activity. Gross profit for Sospira was negative $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. In the same period of the prior year, Sospira reported $200,000 in gross profit. I want to reiterate that our second quarter results present our light-duty business as continued operations.
Speaker #4: Starting in Q3 of 2025, Suspira will operate without manufacturing support from Westport under the traditional service agreements. Gross margin in our heavy-duty OEM business in the second quarter of 2025 was $700,000, or 7% of revenue compared to $1.3 million from 12% of revenue in Q2 of 2024.
Speaker #4: Suspira generated revenue of $12 million in Q2 of '25 as compared to $4.1 million in the same period last year. As mentioned before, the Suspira JV was completed in June of 2024; therefore, Suspira's Q2 '24 results represent only one month of activity.
Speaker #4: Gross profit for Suspira was negative $1.99 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. In the same period of the prior year, Suspira reported $200,000 in gross profit.
Speaker #4: I want to reiterate that our second quarter results present our light-duty business as continued operations. That being said, I would like to briefly review the light-duty business performance during the period.
Bill Larkin: That being said, I would like to briefly review the light-duty business performance during the period. The light-duty business generated $76.4 million of revenue with a gross profit of $15.1 million or 20% of revenue. As I previously mentioned, please refer to note five of the financial statements for the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of the light-duty business that was divested in July of 2025. Regarding liquidity, our cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2025 were $21.4 million, of which $15.3 million was in the light-duty business and $6.1 million in our remaining business. Our balance sheet presents the $6.1 million for our continuing operations. The decrease in cash during the three months ended June 30, 2025, is primarily driven by operating losses, funding of the Sospira joint venture, purchases of fixed assets, and debt repayments.
Speaker #4: The light-duty business generated $76.4 million of revenue, with a gross profit of $15.1 million, or 20% of revenue. Please refer to note five of the financial statements for the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of the light-duty business that was divested in July of 2025.

Speaker #4: Our balance sheet presents the $6.1 million for our continued operations. The decrease in cash during the three months ended June 30, 2025, was primarily driven by operating losses; funding of the Suspira joint venture purchases of fixed assets and debt repayments.
Bill Larkin: For Q2 of 2025, net cash using operating activities and continuing operations was $5.6 million. The increase in net cash using operating activities was primarily driven by a significant increase in accounts receivable due from Sospira, the majority of which we anticipate receiving in the third quarter. This is partially offset by a decrease in inventory related to the sale of the remaining heavy-duty OEM inventory to Sospira during the second quarter. Net cash used in investing activities was $5.9 million compared to net cash provided by continuing operations of $7.79 million in the same quarter in 2024. Net cash used in investing activities and continuing operations was primarily driven by capital contributions to Sospira of $4.2 million and fixed asset purchases of $800,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Speaker #4: For Q2 of '25, net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was $5.6 million. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily driven by a significant increase in accounts receivable due from Suspira.
Speaker #4: The more the majority of which we anticipate receiving in the third quarter. This is partially offset by a decrease in inventory related to the sale of the remaining HD OEM inventory to Suspira during the second quarter.
Speaker #4: Net cash used in investing activities was $5 million, compared to net cash provided by continuing operations of $7.7 million in the same quarter in 2024.
Speaker #4: Net cash used in investing activities from continued operations was primarily driven by capital contributions to Suspira of $4.2 million, and fixed asset purchases of $800,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Bill Larkin: In the prior year period, we received proceeds of $18.9 million from Volvo Group for the shares sold in Sospira. Net cash used in financing activities and continuing operations was $1 million in Q2 of 2025, which represents our quarterly principal payment on the outstanding loan from EDC. Subsequent to the quarter on July 14, 2025, we entered into a short-term loan with a purchaser of the light-duty segment for $5.8 million or 5 million euros. The loan was subsequently repaid on July 29, 2025, in association with the close of the transaction. That remaining after divesting the light-duty business will only consist of the EDC loan, which $4.9 million was outstanding at June 30, 2025. Payment terms consist of $1 million each quarter plus interest with the final payment in September of 2026.

Speaker #4: Payment terms consist of $1 million each quarter plus interest, with the final payment in September 2026. Following the close of the transaction, we'll have additional cash spending that will be reflected in the third quarter, including incremental funding for Suspira, transaction costs related to the close of the light-duty sale, relocation costs related to our high-pressure controls and systems move from Italy to Canada, and restructuring costs.
Bill Larkin: Following the close of the transaction, we'll have additional cash spending that will be reflected in the third quarter, including incremental funding for Sospira, transaction costs related to the close and light-duty sale, relocation costs related to our high-pressure controls and systems moved from Italy to Canada, and restructuring costs. Together, these costs are expected to amount to about $15 million in the third quarter. We sell the light-duty business, including the light-duty OEM, the light OEM, independent aftermarket electronics, and fuel storage businesses. The sale provided $62.5 million in net proceeds to be received as $41.2 million in initial cash proceeds, $8.5 million in deferred payments, which are expected to be received in September of 2025, and $12.8 million in proceeds held in escrow. Net proceeds are after a deduction of net debts in the light-duty business and certain other closing costs.
Speaker #4: Together, these costs are expected to amount to about $15 million in the third quarter. This includes the sale of the light-duty business, which encompasses the light-duty OEM, the light OEM, independent aftermarket electronics, and fuel storage businesses.

The transaction moves us forward in streamlining our operations and achieving certain financial goals with respect to our balance sheets. Further, the proceeds held in escrow will be released to us in four tranches, with the first tranche to be received by the end of 2025 and the last payment in May of 2027. Purchase price adjustments may impact the final proceeds received from the purchaser and are customary in nature. Even though the transaction's proceeds are enabling Westport Fuel Systems Inc. to significantly strengthen its balance sheet from the time of closing onwards, the going concern addressed in note two of the interim financial statements is expected to remain in place at this time.

Bill Larkin: One last item before I turn it back to Dan Sceli. Our previous base shelf prospective being effective in May of 2023 expired in June of 2025. We expect to file a replacement preliminary short-form base shelf prospective this month. With that, I'll pass the call back to Dan Sceli.
Speaker #4: One last item before I turn it back to Dan. Our previous base shelf perspective, which became effective in May of 2023, expired in June of 2025.
Speaker #4: We expect to file replacement preliminary short-form form base shelf perspective this month. With that, I'll pass the call back to Dan.
Dan Sceli: Thank you, Bill. To recap, the closing of the light-duty transaction enables Westport Fuel Systems Inc. to return to its roots, where it can focus on solutions for hard-to-decarbonize mobility and industrial applications and invest in growth. Needless to say, we are very excited about the company's future. Thank you to everyone who joined the call today. Your continued support is immeasurably important to us. We continue to move through 2025 with purpose to create value for our shareholders. Thank you again for joining us today.
Speaker #2: Thank you, Bill. To recap, the closing of the light-duty transaction enables Westport to return to its roots, where it can focus on solutions, where hard-to-decarbonize mobility, and industrial applications, and invest in growth.
Speaker #2: Needless to say, we are very excited about the company's future. Thank you to everyone who joined the call today. Your continued support is immeasurably important to us.
Speaker #2: We continue to move through 2025 with purpose to create value for our shareholders. Thank you again for joining us today.
Speaker 5: Thank you. Our first question for today comes from the line of Eric Stein from Craig Hallam. Your question, please.
Speaker #5: Thank you. And our first question for today comes from the line of Eric Stein from Craig Hallam. Your question, please.
Eric Stein: Hi, Dan. Hi, Bill.
Speaker #6: Hi, Dan. Hi, Bill.
Dan Sceli: Good morning.
Speaker #5: Hey, good morning.
Eric Stein: Good morning. Hey, so maybe first on HPDI. You mentioned activity outside of Europe, specifically India, South America, and multiple locations in East Asia. Can you just provide more details there? Are these, would you characterize these as trials? Are they volumes from Volvo Group in some of these new markets, or how does that kind of play into your goal of adding additional OEMs going forward in Sospira?
Speaker #6: Good morning. Hey, so maybe first on HPDI, you you mentioned activity outside of Europe, specifically India, South America, and multiple locations in Asia. Can you just provide more details there?
Speaker #6: I mean, would you characterize these as trials? Are they volumes from Volvo in some of these new markets? Or how does that kind of play into your goal of adding additional OEMs going forward in Suspira?
Dan Sceli: I think what we are seeing is Volvo Group is planting growth seeds in different markets. They have fully established HPDI fuel system in Europe, and now they are going out to other markets to begin that same process. Whether it is in Chile and Peru or in India, we see them beginning to move around the globe with the technology to build market acceptance.
Speaker #2: Sure. I think what we're seeing is Volvo planting growth seeds in different markets. They've fully established HPDI in Europe, and now they're going out to other markets to begin that same process.
Speaker #2: Whether it's in Chile and Peru or in India, we see them beginning to move around the globe with the technology to build market acceptance.
Eric Stein: Got it. In this kind of dovetails with that, you mentioned Westport Fuel Systems Inc. developing the CNG HPDI fuel system version. From the way it was worded, it was unclear if that was a Westport Fuel Systems Inc.-only development or the joint venture, because I know that there is a view at some point that Volvo Group potentially brings HPDI fuel system to the U.S.
Speaker #6: Got Got it. And then in this kind of dovetails with that, you mentioned the Westport developing the CNG HPDI version. I guess from the way it was worded, unclear if that was a Westport-only development or the joint venture because I know that there is a view at some point that Volvo potentially brings HPDI to the US.
Dan Sceli: Sure. HPDI on engine is solely part of Sospira. Their current off engine, i.e., the storage, the fuel storage and movement to the engine, is in LNG. We see the other markets starting to move, and CNG is clearly one of the primary methods in North America, specifically in the U.S. There is a combination in Canada, but Westport Fuel Systems Inc. is developing the off engine side of that, the storage and material handling to the HPDI fuel system.
Speaker #2: Sure. So what I mean is that HPDI on the engine is solely part of Suspira. Their current off-engine system, i.e., the storage and fuel movement to the engine, is in LNG.
Speaker #2: We see the other markets starting to move and CNG is clearly one of the primary methods in North America, specifically in the US. There is a combination in Canada.
Speaker #2: But what Westport is developing is the off engine. Side of that, the storage and material handling to the HPDI system.
Eric Stein: Okay. So Westport Fuel Systems Inc. only, is that something that if there are any revenues resulting from expenses, would that be in the high-pressure controls and systems business, or what does that look like?
Speaker #6: Okay. So Westport only, I mean, is that something that that work revenue, if there are any revenues as resulting from expenses, would that be in the high-pressure components and systems business, or what does that look like?
Dan Sceli: Yeah, we'll be structuring that as a separate business somewhat. The high-pressure controls is a big part of that because to manage any compressed gases in these storage tanks, you need the high-pressure controls. The tank valves, the pressure controls, the safeties, all of that kit is needed to manage those high-pressure tanks.
Speaker #2: Yeah, we'll be structuring that as a separate business somewhat. The high-pressure controls is a big part of that because to manage any compressed gases in these storage tanks, you need the high-pressure controls.
Speaker #2: The tank valves, the pressure controls, the safeties, all of that kit is needed to manage those high-pressure tanks.
Eric Stein: Okay. Maybe last one for me. You know, this kind of plays into the view for additional OEMs for HPDI, but I know that the headlines in some of the market have cooled on hydrogen. I am just curious, are you seeing that as one of the drivers? Is it people looking at natural gas? Is it the optionality of fuel for HPDI? I mean, how do you think that plays out?
Speaker #6: Okay. Maybe last one for me, and you know this, I guess, kind of plays into the view for additional OEMs for HPDI, but you know I know that kind of the headlines in some of the market is cooled on hydrogen, but just curious, I mean, are you are you seeing you know that as one of the drivers?
Speaker #6: Is it people looking at natural gas? Is it the optionality of fuel for HPDI? I mean, how do you think that plays out?
Dan Sceli: Sure. I mean, certainly we see the hydrogen development continuing in China at a fast pace. We have seen it slow down everywhere else, but you hit the key point. HPDI is fuel agnostic, and the on-engine system can run on any one of the fuels, hydrogen, all the natural gases. We see that, for instance, in North America, we see the pendulum has swung, and there is going to be huge opportunity for natural gas expansion in the transportation, the heavy transportation segment. We want to participate in that. We see that as a growth opportunity, and we are going to position ourselves to be part of it.
Speaker #2: Sure. So I mean, certainly we see the hydrogen development continuing in China at a fast pace. We've seen it slow down everywhere else. But you hit the key point.
Speaker #2: HPDI is fuel agnostic. And the On Engine system can run on any one of the fuels, hydrogen, all the natural gases, and so we see that so, for instance, in North America, we see the pendulum is swung and there's going to be huge opportunity for natural gas expansion in the transportation.
Speaker #2: The heavy transportation segment. And we want to participate in that. We see that as a growth opportunity. And we're going to position ourselves to be part of it.
Eric Stein: Okay. Thanks.
Speaker #6: Okay. Thanks.
Dan Sceli: Thanks, Eric.
Speaker #2: Thanks, Eric.
Speaker 5: Thank you. Our next question comes from the line of Rob Brown from Lake Street Capital Markets. Your question, please.
Speaker #5: Thank you. And our next question comes from the line of Rob Brown from Lake Street, Capital Markets. Your question, please.
Eric Stein: Hey, good morning, Rob.
Speaker #7: Hey, good morning, Rob. Good
Dan Sceli: Good morning.
Eric Stein: Good morning. Just on the high-pressure controls business, you know, the current run rate, is this sort of a baseline that you can grow from, or do you see some kind of continuing ins and outs here this year before things ramp?
Speaker #5: Good morning.
Speaker #7: Good morning.
Speaker #5: Just on the high-pressure controls business, you know the current run rate is this sort of a baseline that you can grow from, or do you see some kind of continuing ins and outs here this year before things run?
Dan Sceli: is a bumpy road right now. As you know, I think we are in the middle of a, I will call it a bit of a pause. As the new administration is setting up policies and regulations, we see that everybody is watching carefully to see which direction it goes in North America. In China, we see the continued opportunities being pursued from a governmental level. They are driving a lot of the activities in the hydrogen world. It is a mixed bag for us. One of the key things is to have better control of the manufacturing and development and linking the two by moving the manufacturing out of Italy for these components to Cambridge or Ontario site. Some of it is going to go to China.
Speaker #2: It's a bumpy road right now, as you know. I think what we're in the middle of is, I'll call it, a bit of a pause, you know, as the new administration is setting up policies and regulations.
Speaker #2: We see that you know everybody's watching carefully to see which direction it goes. In North America, what we and in China, we see the continued opportunities being pursued from a governmental level.
Speaker #2: They're driving a lot of the activities in the hydrogen world. So, you know, it's a mixed bag for us. One of the key things is to have better control of the manufacturing and development, linking the two by moving the manufacturing out of Italy for these components to the Cambridge or Ontario site, and then, of course, some of it is going to go to China.
Dan Sceli: The China plant that we have been building is for China market only. It is a localization strategy. It is a cost reduction strategy to take part in what our customers are telling us is continued growth in that market.
Speaker #2: The China plant that we've been building is for China market only. It's a localization strategy. It's a cost reduction strategy. To take part in what our customers are telling us is continued growth in that market.
Eric Stein: Okay, great. On the OpEx kind of run rate after things settle here, I think you talked about it coming down, but what is a good directional run rate for the OpEx going forward?
Speaker #5: Okay, great. And then on the OPEX kind of run rate, after things settle here, I think you talked about it coming down, but what's a good directional run rate for the OPEX going forward?
Dan Sceli: Yeah, sure. So we still have, as we've divested of light-duty, the light-duty business commanded an awful lot of time, attention, and resources. It was a very complex, the breadth of the business was quite staggering for the size of it. This will allow us to continue to right-size our overhead and focus our R&D on these growing natural gas markets.
Speaker #2: Yeah, sure. So we still have you know as we've divested of light-duty, in the light-duty business, commanded an awful lot of time, attention, and resources.
Speaker #2: It was very complex; the breadth of the business was quite staggering for the size of it, and this will allow us to continue to right-size our overhead and focus our R&D on these growing natural gas markets.
Bill Larkin: I think I will add to that, Dan, is when you look at our R&D spend, it will be a progression. I think we will see pretty much the full reduction in 2026 because we have to get through the full year audit. We have all of our audit fees, tax fees. There are a lot of outside services in relation to when we had the consolidated business that we are going to continue to incur through the rest of this year. As we mentioned, we will start, we are actually starting to right-size the business, reduce costs when we can, and we will continue that well into 2026. So I think when you see kind of a whole, what is a normalized run rate, we will see that in 2026.
Speaker #6: And then also, I think I'll add to that, Dan, is when you look at our R&D spend, you know it'll be a progression. I think we'll see, you know, pretty much the full reduction in 2026 because, you know, we got to get through the full year audit.
Speaker #6: We got all of our audit fees. Tax fees, there's a lot of outside services in relation to when we had the consolidated business that we're going to continue to incur.
Speaker #6: Through the rest of this year, as we mentioned, we will start— we are actually starting to right-size the business, reduce costs where we can, and we'll continue that well into 2026.
Speaker #6: So I think when you see kind of a full what is a normalized run rate you know we'll see that in 2026.
Dan Sceli: Yeah, yeah, good point, Bill Larkin.
Speaker #2: Yeah, yeah, good point, Bill.
Eric Stein: Got it. Thank you. I'll turn it over.
Speaker #5: Got it. Thank you. I'll turn it over.
Dan Sceli: Thank you, Rob.
Speaker #2: Thank you, Rob.
Speaker 5: Thank you. Our next question comes from the line of Samir Joshi from HC Wainwright. Your question, please.
Speaker #5: Thank you. And our next question comes from the line of Samir Joshi from HC Wainwright. Your question, please.
Samir Joshi: Good morning, Samir.
Speaker #7: Yeah, good morning.
Speaker #5: Hey, Samir.
Dan Sceli: Hey, Samir.
Samir Joshi: Thanks. Hi, how are you?
Speaker #7: Thank you. Hi, how are you?
Dan Sceli: Good. How are you?
Speaker #5: Good, how are you?
Samir Joshi: Thanks for taking my question. Just a clarification on the continuing operations revenue. I think in the first half, revenue is around 19.8 versus 12.5 for the second quarter. That implies a 7.3 in the first quarter. Is that sort of seasonality, or is that lumpiness? How should we look at it as we model this in the coming quarters?
Speaker #7: Thanks for taking my question. Just sort of clarification on the continuing operations revenue. I think in the first half, revenue is around $19.8 million versus $12.5 million for the second quarter.
Speaker #7: That implies a 7.3 in the first quarter. Is that sort of seasonality or is that lumpiness or like how should we look at it as we model this in the coming quarters?
Dan Sceli: Yeah, what we are seeing is that outside of China, we are seeing a number of programs being slowed down. One of them, Stellantis canceled their hydrogen program for their commercial vans. So we have this, what I talked about, this pause we are seeing in the hydrogen world. It is on right now. So the reduction is really, you know, the customers of ours slowing down and waiting to see what is going to happen in, you know, for instance, North America versus what we are being told is going to happen in China.
Speaker #2: Yeah, what we're seeing is that outside of China, we're seeing a number of programs being slowed down. One of them, Stellantis, canceled their hydrogen program for their commercial vans.
Speaker #2: So we have this what I talked about, this pause we're seeing in the hydrogen world. It's on right now. And so the reduction is really you know the customers of ours slowing down and waiting to see what's going to happen.
Speaker #2: In, you know for instance, North America, versus what we're being told is going to happen in China.
Samir Joshi: Understood. Just one on the transaction, the $12.8 million that are in escrow. Is there any conditionality to it, or is this just a timed disbursement that you will get on those set dates without any conditions met?
Speaker #7: Understood. And then just one on the transaction the 12.8 million dollars that are in escrow, is there any conditionality to it, or is this just a timed disbursement that you will get on those set dates without any conditions met?
Dan Sceli: Bill, I will let you take that one.
Speaker #2: Bill, I'll let you take that one.
Bill Larkin: Yeah, no, there's, you know, it's kind of customary that, you know, to cover any potential undisclosed liabilities as part of the transaction, just things like that. You know, a piece of it is going to be released this year. $5.5 million is going to be released at the end of January of 2026, and that leaves about $2.5 million after that. So a big chunk of that holdback that's in escrow will be received by the end of January of 2026.
Speaker #6: Yeah, there's, you know, it's kind of customary that they cover any potential, you know, undisclosed liabilities, you know, as part of the transaction.
Speaker #6: Just things like that, you know a piece of it is going to be released this year. You know 5.5 million is going to be released in at the end of January of '26, so that leaves about two and a half million after that.
Speaker #6: So a big chunk of that holdback that's in escrow will be received by the end of January of '26.
Samir Joshi: Got it. Understood. Thanks for that. The $3.8 million is pure earned out based on some performance criteria.
Speaker #7: Got it. Understood. Thanks for that. And then the 3.8 million is pure or now based on some performance?
Speaker #6: Correct.
Bill Larkin: Correct. Yeah, yeah, based on the specific items.
Speaker #7: Criteria. Okay.
Speaker #6: Yeah. Based on, yeah, specific items.
Samir Joshi: Thanks for that. Just one last one. You did mention the $15 million amount in Q2 for all the sort of one-time relocation and transaction expenses. For the hydrogen innovation center, is there any additional CAPEX in addition to this $15 million, which includes other items that you would expect over the next few quarters?
Speaker #7: Yeah, thanks for that. And then just one last one. You did mention the $15 million amount in Q2 for all the sort of one-time relocation and transaction expenses.
Speaker #7: But for the Hydrogen Innovation Center, is there any additional CapEx in addition to this $15 million, which includes other items, that you would expect over the next few quarters?
Bill Larkin: No. When the $15 million, a big chunk of that is going to be our Q3 contribution to the Sospira joint venture. That makes up a majority of that amount. We have some transaction-related costs. Also the cost and related CapEx. A big chunk of the CapEx has already been acquired, but there is still some remaining CapEx that we are going to have to purchase to support the relocation from Italy to both our facility in Cambridge and China. That is all inclusive within that amount in the $15 million.
Speaker #6: No, when you know, a big chunk of that is going to be our Q3 contribution to the Suspira joint venture. That makes up a majority of that amount.
Speaker #6: And then you know we have some transaction you know related costs. And then also the cost and related CapEx, most a big chunk of the CapEx has already been acquired, but there's still some remaining CapEx that we're going to have to you know purchase to support the relocation from Italy to both our facility in Cambridge and China.
Speaker #6: So that's all inclusive within that amount that the 15 million.
Samir Joshi: Understood.
Speaker #7: Understood.
Bill Larkin: Through the third quarter.
Samir Joshi: And just one.
Speaker #6: For the third quarter.
Speaker #7: And just one sorry, go ahead.
Eric Stein: Sorry, go ahead.
Dan Sceli: Go ahead, Samir.
Speaker #2: No, go ahead, Samir.
Samir Joshi: Yeah, I just wanted to ask one macro question. We talked about the dynamics of the fuels, the hydrogen stepping back, but natural gas is still active, hydrogen active in China. We did not talk about all the tariff and trade uncertainties between North America, U.S., Canada, and China. Do you have a view on how it will play out and how it impacts Westport Fuel Systems Inc. and your operations?
Speaker #7: Yeah, I just wanted to ask one like a macro question we talked about the dynamics of the fuels, the hydrogen stepping back, but natural gas still active.
Speaker #7: Hydrogen active in China. But we didn't talk about all the tariff and trade uncertainties between North America, US, Canada, and China. Do you have a view on how it will play out and how it impacts Westport and your operations?
Dan Sceli: Sure. We do not have any real direct impact from the tariffs. For sure, one of the strategies is localization in China for what we sell in China, so it is going to be protected that way. But we have no direct tariff impacts. They are more indirect when the overall economy is adjusting to tariffs. We might feel it in general volume, but there is no direct tariff impact for us.
Speaker #2: Sure. We don't have any real direct impact from the tariffs. And you know for sure, one of the strategies is localization in China for what we sell in China.
Speaker #2: So it's going to be protected that way. But we have no direct tariff impacts. They're more indirect when you know the overall economy is you know adjusting to tariffs.
Speaker #2: We might feel it in general volume. But no, there's no direct tariff impact for us.
Samir Joshi: Got it. Thanks, Dan Sceli, for that.
Speaker #7: Got it. Thanks, Dan, for that.
Dan Sceli: Okay.
Samir Joshi: Thanks for taking my question.
Speaker #2: Okay.
Speaker #7: Thanks for taking my questions.
Dan Sceli: Thanks, Samir.
Speaker #2: Thanks, Samir.
Speaker 5: Thank you. As a reminder, if you do have a question, please press star one-one on your telephone. Our next question comes from the line of Chris Dandrinas from RBC Capital Markets. Your question, please.
Speaker #5: Thank you. And as a reminder, if you do have a question, please press *11 on your telephone. Our next question comes from the line of Chris Denderness from RBC Capital Markets.
Speaker #5: Your question, please.
Eric Stein: Good morning, and thank you.
Speaker #8: Yeah, good morning, and thank you.
Dan Sceli: Good morning.
Speaker #2: Good Good morning.
Eric Stein: I wanted to just ask about the heavy-duty business. You mentioned the Sospira transitional, I think revenues are in there. To confirm, is that rolling off at the end of this coming quarter? Is there any revenue, I guess, outside of that in that segment? Thanks.
Speaker #8: I wanted to just ask about the heavy-duty business, and you mentioned the Suspira transitional. I think revenues are in there. To confirm, is that rolling off at the end of this coming quarter? And is there any revenue, I guess, outside of that in that segment?
Speaker #8: Thanks.
Bill Larkin: What we actually consolidate as part of the transition to a standalone Sospira, that was substantially completed in the second quarter. From the third quarter and beyond, there will be very, very little revenue what we consider in the heavy-duty OEM business going forward.
Speaker #2: So what we actually
Speaker #6: consolidate as part of the really kind of the transition to a standalone Suspira, they have substantially completed in the second quarter and so you know from third quarter and beyond, there will be very, very little revenue what we consider in the HD OEM business going forward.
Eric Stein: Got it. Thanks. Then maybe just on funding of Sospira going forward. You mentioned a big chunk of that $15 million this coming quarter is for that. Are there additional commitments that you all need to make going beyond Q3? Just how should we think about that funding level going forward?
Speaker #8: Got it. Thanks. And then maybe just on funding of Suspira going forward, and you mentioned, you know, a big chunk of that $15 million this coming quarter is for that.
Speaker #8: Are there additional commitments that you all need to make going beyond Q3? And just how should we think about that funding level going forward?
Dan Sceli: Yeah, sure. I think we've mentioned on a number of the previous earnings calls, when we set up Sospira, it was going to be a three-year build-out where there would be cash required from the parents to continue to build Sospira out for the three years. That will continue.
Speaker #2: Yeah, sure. And I think we've mentioned on a number of the previous earnings calls when we set up Suspira, it was going to be a three-year build-out where there would be cash required from the parents to continue to build Suspira out for the three years.
Speaker #2: And that will continue.
Eric Stein: Okay. That is it for me. Thank you.
Speaker #8: Okay. That's it for me. Thank you.
Dan Sceli: Thank you very much.
Speaker #2: Thank you very much.
Speaker 5: Thank you. This does conclude the question and answer session of today's program. I would like to hand the program back to Dan for any further remarks.
Speaker #5: Thank you. And this does conclude the question and answer session of today's program. I'd like to hand the program back to Dan for any further remarks.
Dan Sceli: All right. Thank you very much. I appreciate the support. I appreciate all the questions, and I wish everybody a good day. Goodbye.
Speaker #2: All right. Well, thank you very much. I appreciate the support. I appreciate all the questions. And I wish everybody a good day. Goodbye.
Speaker 5: Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for your participation in today's conference. This does conclude the program. You may now disconnect. Good day.
