GENERAL DEVELOPMENTS

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Cespira, our joint venture with Volvo Group, increased its revenue by $5.6 million or 33% compared to the prior year quarter. Cespira reduced its net loss by $4.6 million and reliance on funding from its partners in the quarter. Westport reduced its capital contributions to Cespira in the quarter from $4.7 million to $2.9 million.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, our High-Pressure & Controls segment increased its revenue by $0.4 million or 21% compared to the same quarter in the prior year.

On March 17, 2026, we experienced a cybersecurity incident resulting in unauthorized access to certain of our internal IT business applications and other business and employee information. Given the timing within our year-end reporting cycle, this incident resulted in the late filing of our annual financial statements and related continuous disclosure documents. At our request, on April 1, 2026, the British Columbia Securities Commission issued a temporary management cease trade order ("MCTO") restricting trading by our CEO and CFO only. The investigation of the incident has since concluded, all continuous disclosure filings were made and the MCTO has been rescinded. As a result of our review of internal controls over financial reporting following the incident; management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not deficient in connection with the incident.

Between May 4 to 7, 2026, Westport showcased its high-pressure compressed natural gas ("CNG") fuel system for North American heavy-duty fleets at ACT Expo in Las Vegas.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Westport is a technology and innovation company connecting synergistic technologies to power a cleaner tomorrow. As a supplier of affordable, alternative fuel, low-emissions transportation technologies, we design, manufacture, and supply advanced components and systems that enable the transition from traditional fuels to alternative energy solutions.

Our technologies support a wide range of alternative fuels – including natural gas, renewable natural gas ("RNG"), and hydrogen – enabling OEMs and commercial transportation industries to meet performance demands, regulatory requirements, and climate targets in a cost-effective way. With decades of expertise and a commitment to engineering excellence, Westport is helping our partners achieve sustainability goals - without compromising performance or cost-efficiency - making clean, scalable transport solutions a reality.

Westport is headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, with operations in Cambridge, Ontario; Calgary, Alberta; and China and Europe. With a focus on engineering, manufacturing, and supplying alternative fuel systems and components for transportation applications, Westport's product offerings, sold under its AFS and GFI brands and through Cespira, Westport's joint venture with the Volvo Group ("Volvo"), enable the use of several alternative fuels in the transportation sector that provide economic and/or environmental advantages as compared to diesel, gasoline, or battery powered electric vehicles.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Our portfolio includes our High-Pressure Controls segment sold under the AFS and GFI brands and a 55% ownership in Cespira, a joint venture with Volvo. Our High-Pressure Controls segment designs, develops, and produces components including pressure regulators, valves, filters, electronic control units ("ECUs") and high-pressure hydrogen components for transportation and industrial applications. We partner with fuel cell, hydrogen engine and alternative fuel engine manufacturers offering versatile solutions that serve a variety of fuel types. Cespira launched in 2024 and is committed to advancing the development and commercialization of Cespira's HPDI fuel system, a fully OEM-integrated gaseous fuel system that enables heavy-duty diesel engines to operate with a range of alternative fuels including natural gas, RNG, hydrogen and others without any performance or efficiency compromises relative to the base diesel engine platform. As part of Westport and Cespira's portfolio of solutions, Cespira's LNG HPDI 2.0 fuel system is on the road today and is a complete system offering OEMs the flexibility to differentiate their natural gas product lines easily while also maintaining maximum commonality with their conventional diesel fueled products.

Business Segments

Westport develops and supplies advanced alternative-fuel systems, components, and technologies that enable global transportation and industrial customers to affordably reduce emissions and transition toward cleaner mobility solutions. Our technologies, products, and services are sold under our established brands and form the foundation for sustainable growth in both existing and emerging markets worldwide. We operate through the following segments:

Cespira
In June 2024, Westport and Volvo entered into a series of joint venture agreements (collectively, the "JV Agreement"), to establish Cespira, focused on promoting, developing, and commercializing the HPDI fuel system technology. Under the terms of the agreement, Westport owns a 55% equity interest in Cespira, while Volvo owns 45%. The JV prioritizes scaling the HPDI fuel system and supporting the global transition to carbon-neutral, internal combustion engine technologies, particularly in heavy-duty, long-haul trucking, where multiple propulsion technologies are required to achieve substantial decarbonization. Cespira designs, assembles, and supplies LNG HPDI 2.0 fuel systems, related components, and engineering services to engine manufacturers and commercial vehicle OEMs. The fully integrated LNG HPDI fuel systems enable diesel engines to operate predominantly on alternative gaseous fuels - such as RNG - while maintaining equivalent power, torque, and fuel efficiency relative to conventional compression ignition engines fueled with diesel fuel. This can be a cost-effective pathway to meaningful greenhouse gas reductions. The JV is also advancing the application of HPDI fuel systems for hydrogen and other alternative fuels in internal combustion engines, expanding its relevance to future decarbonization strategies.

High-Pressure Controls
The High-Pressure Controls segment designs, engineers, manufacturers and supplies components for transportation and industrial applications, using gaseous fuels such as hydrogen. This segment represents Westport's off-engine product portfolio, supplying regulators, valves, ECUs, pressure components, and related engineered solutions to OEM and Tier-1 customers worldwide. These technologies support fuel-cell vehicles, hydrogen fueled internal combustion engines, and natural gas mobility platforms.

Westport's High-Pressure Controls segment, with its GFI branded products, has decades of engineering expertise in developing high-quality and often customized components tailored for global automotive, truck, bus, rail, and industrial OEMs. The business is positioned at the forefront of the clean-energy transition, with solutions supporting both current alternative fuel deployment and hydrogen powered mobility.

Through our GFI-branded operations, with manufacturing facilities in Canada and China, we deliver components used in passenger vehicles, buses, mid-duty and heavy-duty trucks, rail applications, construction and industrial equipment.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
RISKS, LONG-TERM PROFITABILITY & LIQUIDITY

Government Regulation, Policies and Incentives
Government regulation is a key factor in driving accelerated global demand for and adoption of reduced emission vehicles. Supportive government policy combined with rising corporate adherence to emission reduction goals are creating growth catalysts for Westport in some of its key markets. While we have benefited historically from certain government environmental policies, mandates and regulations around the world, there can be no assurance that these policies, mandates, and regulations will be continued. If these are discontinued, if current requirements are relaxed, or if other regulations are implemented that may impact our business, we may experience a material impact on our competitive position.

Global inflation trends remain inconsistent, with inflationary pressures easing in developed countries, while continuing to impact certain emerging and developed markets. Westport sources its components from global suppliers and continues to face inflationary pressure on production input costs. Specifically, the cost of semiconductors, raw materials, and parts has increased, along with higher labor costs, all of which are contributing to margin compression.

Interest Rates

In response to inflationary pressures, central banks in major markets had raised interest rates to multi-decade highs. While some regions, including Canada, the United States, and Europe, had reduced rates, current levels remain restrictive and are having a significant impact on both the automotive and clean energy sectors. There continues to be uncertainty around inflation and many central banks have been holding interest rates steady for the past year, resulting in slowing of capital investment and infrastructure development.

Automotive manufacturers and OEMs are facing challenges as higher interest rates are compressing profit margins. This environment is leading to delays and cancellations of clean energy investments as companies prioritize cost-cutting measures. Additionally, elevated interest rates have contributed to a slowdown in global economic growth, particularly in emerging markets where economic conditions are already volatile, are facing heightened financial pressures, which could further dampen demand for clean energy solutions.

Hydrogen Eco-System Uncertainty

The hydrogen industry is currently facing economic challenges associated with limited load of available hydrogen which has resulted in high operational costs across the value chain. This has led to delays and cancellations of projects. Key cost factors, such as rising renewable electricity prices and increased electrolyzer costs, are having a significant impact on the economics of renewable (green) hydrogen projects. These higher costs, coupled with uncertainties surrounding fuel supply and infrastructure development, make it challenging to predict when hydrogen technology for transport will become a viable decarbonization solution.

Fuel Prices

European natural gas prices are still significantly below the record highs of 2022. Lower demand, influenced by reduced economic activity and previous mild weather, has contributed to price moderation. Additionally, the diversification of gas imports continues to be a key focus of European energy policy. Long-term forecasts suggest that natural gas prices will remain well below 2022 peaks. This outlook reinforces the impact of fuel’s cost-effectiveness and its role in advancing the transition to natural gas-powered vehicles

In addition to the risks referred above, readers should also refer to our discussion in our annual report Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2025, dated April 23, 2026, under the headings "Risk Factors" and "Business Overview" for more information.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Liquidity and Going Concern

We believe that we have considered all possible impacts of known events arising from the risks discussed above related to supply chain and fuel prices in the preparation of the interim financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2026. However, changes in circumstances due to the forementioned risks could affect our judgments and estimates associated with our liquidity and other critical accounting assessments.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we had operating losses from continuing operations of $4.9 million. Cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and was primarily driven by operating losses and changes in working capital.

As at March 31, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $24.5 million and long-term debt of $1.9 million from Export Development Canada ("EDC"), of which all is current.

Based on our projected capital expenditures, debt servicing obligations and operating requirements under our current business plan, we are projecting that our cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our operations through the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of this MD&A. These conditions raise substantial doubt about Westport's ability continue as a going concern within one year after the date of this MD&A is issued.

Management is currently evaluating several different options to improve Westport's liquidity position, including raising funds from the public markets and borrowing debt or other financing alternatives. These plans are not final and are subject to market and other conditions not within our control. As such, there can be no assurances that Westport will be successful in obtaining sufficient funding. Accordingly, we concluded under the accounting standards that these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt about Westport's ability to continue as a going concern.

Cybersecurity and data privacy risks

We rely on information technology networks and systems to operate our business, including internal IT business applications and systems that store business, employee, and other information. We have experienced, and may in the future experience, cybersecurity incidents, including unauthorized access to our systems and data. Cyber incidents could result in business disruption; theft, loss, misuse, or improper disclosure of confidential, personal, or proprietary information; remediation and response costs; increased cybersecurity protection and insurance costs; claims, litigation, regulatory inquiries or investigations, penalties, and fines; reputational harm; and other adverse impacts. Cyber incidents could also delay our financial reporting or our ability to complete audits and filings on a timely basis and could result in regulatory orders or restrictions such as management cease trade orders. Although we maintain cybersecurity measures and engage third‑party experts, and although certain of our operational systems (including systems supporting manufacturing continuity) are segregated from other IT environments, our measures cannot fully eliminate these risks, particularly as threat actors evolve. We are also exposed to cybersecurity and data privacy risks arising from third‑party service providers and partners. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, and reputation.

FIRST QUARTER 2026 RESULTS
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by 69% to $2.3 million compared to $7.3 million in the same quarter last year. As planned, our Heavy-Duty OEM segment ended its transitional service agreement with Cespira at the end of Q2 2025 resulting in reduction in revenue when comparing period over period.

We reported a net loss from continuing operations of $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to net loss from continuing operations of $5.3 million for the same quarter last year.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Cash and cash equivalents were $24.5 million at the end of the first quarter 2026. Cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was $3.3 million, primarily driven by operating losses in the quarter and changes in working capital. Cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations primarily consisted of proceeds received from holdback receivables, partially offset by capital contributions in Cespira of $2.9 million. Cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was debt repayments of $1.0 million in the quarter.

We reported negative adjusted EBITDA of $4.9 million, (see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section in this MD&A) during the first quarter compared to adjusted EBITDA of nil for the same quarter last year. The increase in negative adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by a decrease in gross profit, partially offset by lower operating expenditures and loss from investments accounted for by the equity method. Included in the prior year quarter's adjusted EBITDA was our discontinued operations' performance, which had a net profit of $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Foreign exchange gains and losses reflect net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and net unrealized gains and losses on our net U.S. dollar denominated monetary assets and liabilities in our Canadian operations that were mainly comprised of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable. In addition, we have foreign exchange exposure on Euro denominated monetary assets and liabilities where the functional currency of the subsidiary is not the Euro. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized foreign exchange losses of $1.0 million, compared to a foreign exchange gain of $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The loss recognized in the current period primarily relates to unrealized foreign exchange losses resulting from the translation of U.S. dollar denominated debt in our Canadian legal entities and realized foreign exchange losses from settling long-term foreign currency denominated intercompany receivables and payables with our Light-Duty segment.
  
Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $0.2 million, compared to $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The amounts included in cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $0.1 million, compared with $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Loss from investments accounted for by the equity method for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was a loss of $1.4 million, compared to a loss of $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This was driven by our 55% ownership interest in Cespira. Refer to "Selected Cespira Financial Information" for more details about Cespira's performance in the quarter.

Interest on long-term debt and amortization of discount
The decreases in interest expense on long-term debt for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior year periods was driven by the reduction in the outstanding balance of the EDC term loan.

SG&A expense was $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $3.0 million in the prior year quarter. Cespira recognized severance expense of $0.7 million in the current quarter as part of its cost reduction initiatives.

Operating loss
Cespira had an operating loss of $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $7.1 million in the prior year quarter. Cespira significantly reduced its operating loss compared to the prior year quarter by meaningfully increasing its product revenue and adjusting its cost base as it continues to grow and scale the business.

CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS, RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Our cash and cash equivalents decreased by $2.7 million during the first quarter of 2026 to $24.5 million from $27.2 million at December 31, 2025. The decrease in cash during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily driven by our operating losses, funding of the Cespira JV, purchases of fixed assets, debt repayments, partially offset by the collection of a tranche of holdback receivables.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, our net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was $3.3 million, compared to net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations of $8.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities was primarily driven by changes in working capital.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, our net cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations was $2.6 million compared to net cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations of $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in net cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations was primarily driven by the decrease in proceeds from holdback receivables. Capital contributions to Cespira JV decreased from $4.7 million to $2.9 million in the current quarter, reflecting the improvement of Cespira's financial performance.
Cash Flow from Financing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, our net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $1.0 million compared to net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. In the current quarter, we paid $1.0 million in debt repayments to EDC. We have two remaining debt repayments outstanding with EDC at the end of the quarter.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
 
Our interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our interim financial statements. We have identified several policies as critical to our business operations and in understanding our results of operations. These policies, which require the use of judgment, estimates and assumptions in determining their reported amounts, include the assessment of liquidity and going concern, revenue recognition, inventories, and property, plant and equipment. The application of these and other accounting policies are described in note 3 of our annual consolidated financial statements and our MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed on April 23, 2026. Actual amounts may vary significantly from estimates used. There have been no significant changes in accounting policies applied to the March 31, 2026 interim financial statements, and we do not expect to adopt any significant changes at this time.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS AND DEVELOPMENTS
Upcoming accounting standards not yet adopted:
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses." It requires entities to disclose, in the notes to the financial statements, specified information related to certain costs and expenses disaggregated by type. The standard improves transparency by providing more detailed information about the component of costs and expenses that would enable users to better understand the major components of an entity's income statement by referencing disclosures in the notes to financial statements. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. While this guidance may have an impact on the disclosures, the Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its financial position, operations, and cash flows.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES AND INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting for the three months ended March 31, 2026, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

SUMMARY OF QUARTERLY RESULTS 
Our revenues and operating results can vary significantly from quarter to quarter depending on the timing of product deliveries, product mix, product launch dates, R&D project cycles, timing of related government funding, impairment charges, restructuring charges, stock-based compensation awards and foreign exchange impacts. Net income and net loss has and can vary significantly from one quarter to another depending on operating results, gains and losses from investing activities, recognition of tax benefits and other similar events.

REPORTABLE SEGMENTS & RECONCILIATIONS

As a result of the sale of the Light-Duty segment on July 29, 2025 the Company has classified the business as discontinued operations and held-for-sale. Westport reports its results in the following three reportable segments for its continuing operations: High-Pressure Controls & Systems, Heavy-Duty OEM, and Cespira. The prior year comparatives were recast to reflect this change in reportable segments.

Segment earnings or losses before income taxes, interest, depreciation, and amortization ("Segment EBITDA") is the measure of segment profitability used by the Company. The accounting policies of our reportable segments are the same as those applied in our consolidated financial statements. Management prepared the financial results of the Company's reportable segments on basis that is consistent with the manner in which Management internally disaggregates financial information to assist in making internal operating decisions. Certain common costs and expenses, primarily corporate functions, among segments differently than we would for stand-alone financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These include certain costs and expenses of shared services, such as IT, human resources, legal, finance and supply chain management. Segment EBITDA is not defined under US GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered a substitute for net earnings or other results reported in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of reportable segment information to condensed consolidated interim statement of operations can be found in section "Non-GAAP Measures & Reconciliation" within this MD&A.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES & RECONCILIATIONS:

In addition to the results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we used EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, gross margin, net working capital, and other non-current liabilities (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Measures") throughout this MD&A. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide additional information that is useful to stakeholders in understanding our underlying performance and trends through the same financial measures employed by our management. We believe that EBIT, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to both management and investors in their analysis of our ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow to fund working capital needs, service debt obligations and fund capital expenditures. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures in its review and evaluation of the financial performance of the Company. EBITDA is also frequently used by stakeholders for valuation purposes whereby EBITDA is multiplied by a factor or "EBITDA multiple" that is based on an observed or inferred relationship between EBITDA and market values to determine the approximate total enterprise value of a company. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures also provide additional insight to stakeholders as supplemental information to our U.S. GAAP results and as a basis to compare our financial performance period-over-period and to compare our financial performance with that of other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons of our core operating results from period to period and to other companies by, in the case of EBITDA, removing the effects of our capital structure (net interest income on cash deposits, interest expense on outstanding debt and debt facilities), asset base (depreciation and amortization) and tax consequences. Adjusted EBITDA provides this same indicator of Westport's EBITDA from operations and removing such effects of our capital structure, asset base and tax consequences, but additionally excludes any unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses, stock-based compensation charges and other one-time impairments and costs that are not expected to be repeated in order to provide greater insight into the cash flow being produced from our operating business, without the influence of extraneous events. Readers should be aware that non-GAAP measures have no standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP and accordingly may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures by other companies. Non-GAAP measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
