Douglas Dynamics posts record Q1 2026 with 20% sales growth and raised full-year outlook

Douglas Dynamics reported record first-quarter 2026 results with net sales up 20% to $137.8 million and adjusted EBITDA rising 78% to $16.8 million, driven by strong demand for snow and ice control products amid above-average snowfall. Net income surged to $6.4 million with diluted EPS of $0.26. The company raised its 2026 guidance, expecting continued growth supported by stable economic conditions and average snowfall in the core markets. Despite some softness in commercial segments, municipal operations and acquisitions contributed to strong overall performance.
