Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. (NYSE:CPS ) Q2 2025 Earnings Conference Call August 1, 2025 9:00 AM ET Company Participants Jeffrey S. Edwards - Chairman & CEO Jonathan P.
In the Q1 call, management affirmed EBITDA margin and net leverage targets, quashing fears that tariffs would hit the company hard. Profitability metrics continue to improve despite auto production levels (and thus CPS revenue) remaining subdued. Improving profitability, the muted impact of tariffs and decreasing bond yields since the Liberation Day spike have put a debt refinancing back on the table.

Cooper-Standard posted impressive free cash flow in Q4 but could do much better in '25 and '26 with further operational efficiencies. Despite missing Q4 earnings expectations and guiding to flat revenue in 2025, management remains confident in achieving double-digit adjusted EBITDA margins by the end of the year. Management's optimism about organic growth in the next 5 years and cost reductions improve my bear case estimates and increase my conviction in the buy thesis.
Cooper Standard returns to profitability in fourth-quarter 2024, driven by cost savings and operational efficiencies, while providing optimistic 2025 guidance.

Cooper Standard's low valuation ratios signal significant upside potential after a 90% share price decline since 2018. Ongoing restructuring is improving margins and reducing operational costs, despite inflationary pressures. In my view, the recent revenue decline is temporary, driven by external factors like currency fluctuations and a business divestiture in Q3 2023.
Cooper-Standard's (CPS) total revenues decline 2.1% y/y in Q2 primarily due to the divestiture of the Technical Rubber business and unfavorable foreign exchange.
