Visteon Cuts 2026 Sales and EBITDA Outlook on $77M Warranty Hit
VC is trading near its 52-week low of $74.135 (3.0% above the low) on elevated volume (2.2× avg).
Summary
Visteon trimmed its 2026 sales outlook to $3.80–$3.85B and narrowed adjusted EBITDA to $370–$410M, citing $77M in warranty charges and component inflation. Adjusted free cash flow is now guided to $90–$130M. The cut follows the Q3 report on October 22 that showed $970M in sales and just $5M of net income, with the warranty charge dragging adjusted EBITDA. The stock is trading near its 52-week low of $74.14, so the reduced outlook reinforces the pressure rather than reversing it. Offsetting the negative, Visteon launched 21 products across 14 customers in Q3, including an AI-enabled HPC for the Chery Freelander 8 and launches for Audi, BMW, Lexus and Royal Enfield.
