Rogers Corporation (NYSE:ROG) today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2025.

"As anticipated, second quarter sales increased sequentially due to incremental improvements across most end markets," stated Ali El-Haj, Rogers' Interim President and CEO. "Sales, gross margin and adjusted earnings per share were all within our guidance ranges for the quarter. We also utilized our strong balance sheet to repurchase $28 million of shares in Q2.

"Looking ahead to the third quarter we expect further improvement in our results from slightly higher sales and cost reduction measures. Today we also announced further cost savings initiatives targeted to our AES curamik^® business, in response to evolving market conditions. We are intently focused on achieving more significant improvements in the Company's performance over the coming quarters as we improve sales growth with a more agile organization and increased speed of execution."

Q2 2025 Summary of Results

Net sales of $202.8 million increased 6.5% versus the prior quarter. Advanced Electronics Solutions (AES) net sales increased by 4.6% primarily related to higher industrial, ADAS and aerospace and defense (A&D) sales, partially offset by lower wireless infrastructure sales. Elastomeric Material Solutions (EMS) net sales increased by 8.2% primarily from stronger industrial, portable electronics and A&D sales. Currency exchange rates favorably affected total company net sales in the second quarter of 2025 by $3.6 million compared to the prior quarter.

Restructuring and impairment charges were $76.1 million in the second quarter an increase of $70.2 million from the prior quarter. The higher charges were primarily due to a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $67.3 million, resulting from the lowered outlook for the curamik^® business in our AES operating segment.

GAAP losses per diluted share were $(4.00) compared to losses per diluted share of $(0.08) in the previous quarter. The increased loss was due to the increase in restructuring and impairment charges and higher tax expense. Tax expense increased from the prior quarter related to a $3.8 million valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets for certain European jurisdictions. On an adjusted basis, earnings were $0.34 per diluted share compared to earnings of $0.27 per diluted share in the prior quarter.

Ending cash and cash equivalents were $157.2 million, a decrease of $18.4 million versus the prior quarter. Net cash provided by operating activities in the second quarter was $13.7 million and capital expenditures were $8.1 million. Share repurchases totaled $28.1 million in the second quarter.

Profitability Improvement Initiatives

Today the Company announced initiatives to reduce costs in the curamik^® business in the AES operating segment. These adjustments are in response to market conditions and once fully implemented they are expected to reduce manufacturing costs and operating expenses in excess of $13 million on an annual run-rate basis. Total restructuring charges related to these actions are anticipated to be between $12 to $20 million, spread over the next several quarters.

Financial Outlook

Guidance for the third quarter is based on global tariff policies in place as of July 31, 2025. Rogers has implemented actions that are expected to largely offset the impact of tariffs in the third quarter.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

This earnings release includes the following financial measures that are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"):

(1) Adjusted earnings per diluted share, which the Company defines as earnings (loss) per diluted share excluding acquisition and related integration costs, dispositions, intangible amortization, (gains) losses on the sale or disposal of property, plant and equipment, restructuring, severance, impairment and other related costs, asbestos-related charges (credits), and the related income tax effect on these items, and charges to income tax expense for valuation allowances on deferred tax assets generated in prior years, divided by adjusted weighted average shares outstanding - diluted;

(2) Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as net income (loss) excluding acquisition and related integration costs, dispositions, intangible amortization, (gains) losses on the sale or disposal of property, plant and equipment, restructuring, severance, impairment and other related costs, asbestos-related charges (credits), interest income (expense), net, income tax (benefit) expense , depreciation of fixed assets, and equity compensation expense;

(3) Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which the Company defines as the percentage that results from dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total net sales;

(4) Free cash flow, which the Company defines as net cash provided by operating activities less non-acquisition capital expenditures.

Management believes adjusted earnings per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to the Company's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure the Company's core operating results due to potential variability across periods based on the timing, frequency and magnitude of such items. As a result, management believes that these measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze trends in the Company's business and evaluate the Company's performance relative to peer companies. Management also believes free cash flow is useful to investors as an additional way of viewing the Company's liquidity and provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company's cash flows. However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or as alternatives to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from, and should not be compared to, similarly named measures used by other companies. Reconciliations of the differences between these non-GAAP financial measures and their most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP are set forth below.
