Ampco-Pittsburgh shares jumped in after-hours trading after the company reported a strong increase in customer order activity for the first half of 2026. Orders reached approximately
$268 million, up 32% year over year, driven by growth across both operating segments.
Engineering Forged and Cast Rolls generated about
$153 million in orders, up 25%, supported by stronger North American roll demand and solid demand for specialty forged products. The company also expects recent European tariff and quota protections to benefit steel production in a key market. Air and Liquid Processing orders climbed 42% to roughly
$116 million, fueled by commercial power-generation pumps, rising U.S. Navy pump demand, and continued strength in air handling, with Buffalo Air Handling securing the largest air-handling equipment order in its history.
