Alliance Laundry Holdings (NYSE:ALH) reported fourth-quarter results that surpassed Wall Street projections, driven by robust demand for commercial systems and a significantly leaner balance sheet following its recent initial public offering.
The Ripon, Wisconsin-based manufacturer posted net income of $20.6 million, or $0.10 per share, for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2025.
When adjusted for one-time costs—primarily share-based compensation linked to its IPO—earnings reached $0.24 per share.
This eclipsed the $0.22 per share consensus estimate from analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment Research.
Revenue for the period rose 10% year-over-year to $434.9 million.
The results cap a "landmark year" for the global leader in commercial laundry equipment.
For the full fiscal year 2025, Alliance reported a profit of $101.8 million, or $0.56 per share, on record revenue of $1.71 billion.
The company’s focus on its premium brands—including Speed Queen and UniMac—allowed it to maintain a record adjusted EBITDA margin of 25.5%, even as it navigated fluctuating input costs and tariffs.
Looking ahead, management introduced fiscal 2026 guidance that anticipates continued momentum.
The company expects revenue growth of 5% to 7%, which would push annual sales toward the $1.8 billion mark.
