Westrock Coffee (NASDAQ:WEST – Get Free Report) issued its quarterly earnings results on Thursday. The company reported ($0.10) earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, missing the consensus estimate of ($0.08) by ($0.02), FiscalAI reports. Westrock Coffee had a negative net margin of 4.88% and a negative return on equity of 2,145.68%. The business had revenue of $300.20 million during the quarter, compared to the consensus estimate of $303.93 million.
Here are the key takeaways from Westrock Coffee’s conference call:
- Westrock posted record third-quarter adjusted EBITDA of $26.4 million, up about 14% year over year; nine-month adjusted EBITDA rose 58% to $73.7 million. It was the company’s sixth consecutive quarter of year-over-year EBITDA growth.
- Management said Conway is operating at about 40% of current capacity, with committed programs expected to lift utilization to roughly 85% over the next 18 months. The company expects Conway to contribute more than $70 million of adjusted EBITDA at that level, and said new Conway customers are often adding other Westrock products as well.
- Westrock maintained its 2026 adjusted EBITDA outlook of $90 million to $100 million and introduced 2027 guidance of about $130 million, roughly 35% above the 2026 midpoint. Management noted that some customer programs are scheduled to launch later in 2027, so the year-end run rate could be higher than the full-year result suggests.
- The company reported positive free cash flow for a second consecutive quarter and expects 2026 capital expenditures of about $30 million, down from $89 million in 2025. It also completed a $600 million refinancing that extends maturities to 2031, reduces first-year required debt service by about $17 million, and increases available cash and revolver liquidity.
- Management said consumer conditions remain choppy, with fuel costs weighing on traffic, and expects leverage to temporarily rise in the fourth quarter and early 2027 before resuming meaningful deleveraging. Third-quarter net sales fell 15.4% year over year, though the company attributed much of the decline to tariff-refund accounting and lower green coffee prices, as well as a previously disclosed single-serve customer loss.
