What these concentrations mean together

updated 2026-06-24

The company's concentration profile spans geographic, customer, and supplier dimensions — all of which are material to the investment thesis. On geography, approximately 84% of net sales were generated outside the United States, a high-share structural exposure reflecting the global footprint of the automotive industry the company serves. Customer concentration is also high-share: sales to the top ten customers represented 71% of sales for the year ended December 31, 2025, a dependency-type exposure given that losing or losing share at any major OEM could materially affect revenue. On the supply side, the company imported approximately $918 million in value to the U.S. in 2025, with approximately 68% of that value originating in Mexico. This is a medium-share dependency by disclosed size, but it is notable given the tariff and trade policy sensitivity around U.S.-Mexico cross-border flows. A sudden change in tariff treatment of Mexican-origin goods would directly affect this import cost base. Product concentration adds a fourth dimension: sales of turbochargers for light vehicles represented approximately 21% of net sales in 2025 — a low-share structural exposure. Together, these four layers describe a company tightly integrated with global OEM production cycles and exposed to trade policy via its Mexican supply chain, with no single axis offering an obvious natural hedge against the others. All exposures are well-disclosed in the most recent 10-K.

Concentration counts reflect items disclosed in each peer’s most recent 10-K; disclosed-size classification uses TrendMatrix’s internal 10-K extraction taxonomy.

Concentration disclosures are extracted verbatim from SEC 10-K filings; the disclosed-size classification and the synthesis above are engine-derived. Size reflects how large each exposure is against fixed share thresholds (HIGH >50%, MEDIUM 25–50%, LOW <25% or an explicit diversification statement), not a judgment of how dangerous it is, and is not a buy/sell rating, a price target, or a view on the stock.
