Westport Fuel Systems Inc
Westport Fuel Systems designs and sells fuel-delivery systems and engine components that let vehicles and engines run on cleaner-burning fuels such as compressed natural gas, liquefied natural gas, propane, and hydrogen-related applications. Its products include injectors, regulators, valves, and complete fuel systems that are built into trucks, buses, off-road equipment, and other heavy-duty vehicles. The company sits in the middle of the powertrain supply chain, helping engine makers and vehicle builders adapt engines to alternative fuels without redesigning everything from scratch. Its main customers are vehicle and engine manufacturers, fleet operators, and distributors that need hardware for factory-installed or retrofit fuel systems. Westport makes money by selling components, subsystems, and related engineering services that are used when customers build, certify, or service alternative-fuel vehicles. In practice, it earns a mix of product sales and recurring aftermarket demand for replacement parts and support. What makes the business different is that it focuses on the engineering problem of safely delivering fuel to engines under high pressure and harsh operating conditions. That gives it a technical role rather than a pure commodity role: customers buy Westport's know-how as much as the hardware itself. Its business is tied to transportation and industrial engines, especially where fleets want lower-emission fuel options without abandoning the equipment platforms they already use.

Cespira momentum: Westport said its Cespira joint venture had another strong quarter, with revenue up 33% year over year and management saying momentum should continue through 2026 as adoption of HPDI grows.
Better profitability: Cespira’s gross margin improved to 7% from 3%, and its net loss narrowed to $2.5 million from $7.1 million, showing the JV is scaling more efficiently.
Lower funding needs: Westport said its cash contributions to Cespira fell to $2.9 million, and management expects those JV funding requirements to keep declining as volumes rise.
North America progress: Management said the ACT Expo generated strong interest from fleets, dealers and OEMs, and the company is planning more fleet-driven demos and EPA certification work.
Second OEM trial: The second OEM truck trial is progressing well, and management now expects a determination on the project before year-end.
Controls business improving: High-Pressure Controls revenue rose 21% year over year, helped by stronger volumes and the start of production at new facilities in Cambridge and China.
