Allison Transmission Raises Guidance After Strong Q3 2026 Results

Allison Transmission reported third-quarter 2026 net sales of $1,534 million, a 121% jump compared with the same period a year earlier, driven in large part by the addition of its Off-Highway business unit, which was folded into operations at the start of the year on January 1, 2026.

The company also posted record quarterly net sales of $881 million for the Allison core segment, underscoring broad-based demand across its product lines even before accounting for the newly acquired off-highway operations.
