NORTH CANTON, Ohio -On Wednesday, The Timken Company (NYSE: TKR ) reported first-quarter earnings that missed analyst expectations and lowered its full-year outlook. The company's shares were down -3.22% in premarket trading following the release. Timken posted adjusted earnings per share of $1.40 for Q1 2025, falling short of the $1.46 consensus estimate. Revenue came in at $1.14 billion, slightly above the $1.13 billion analysts were expecting but down 4.2% YoY. The company cited lower end-market demand in both its Engineered Bearings and Industrial Motion segments as key factors behind the revenue decline. Unfavorable foreign currency translation also negatively impacted results. "Timken posted solid first-quarter results in a time of heightened uncertainty," said Richard G. Kyle, president and chief executive officer.
