Aebi Schmidt delivered a strong Q2 with net income of $10.5 million versus a loss of $2.3 million a year ago, driven by the Shyft acquisition. Adjusted EBITDA nearly doubled to $42.1 million. However, management disclosed that disclosure controls and procedures remain ineffective due to five material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, including insufficient U.S. GAAP expertise and IT general control failures. While the company has a remediation plan, the persistence of these weaknesses is a governance red flag that tempers the positive earnings news.
