Aaron Ravenscroft, president and chief executive officer of Manitowoc, discussed the company's first-quarter 2026 financial results and business outlook during an earnings call on August 6, 2026. He noted that first-quarter orders reached nearly $650 million and the backlog ended the period at $940 million, while reaffirming the company's full-year guidance for net sales of $2.25 billion to $2.35 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $125 million to $150 million. Ravenscroft cited resilience in the overall market despite uncertainty related to conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, as well as U.S. tariffs, and highlighted regional optimism in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America, including copper prices above $6 per pound supporting potential investments. Ravenscroft also addressed operational challenges, describing the company as being in the "early innings" of improving collaboration and sharing lessons learned across its locations, and praised employee creativity, such as a QR-code-based improvement for managing forklift maintenance. He expressed uncertainty about the ability to execute on orders within the year due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, which affects shipments to the Middle East. The company also unveiled an 800-ton 8-axle crane and an 80-ton boom truck at Con-Expo, and reported that non-new machine sales grew 3% year-over-year in Q1, reaching $696 million on a trailing 12-month basis.
