PACCAR

PACCAR designs, makes and sells heavy and medium trucks under the Kenworth, Peterbilt and DAF brands. Kenworth and Peterbilt sell mainly in the United States, Canada, Mexico and Australia, and DAF sells mainly in Europe and South America. The company has three segments: Truck, Parts and Financial Services. PACCAR Parts sells aftermarket parts through more than 2,000 dealer locations and more than 350 TRP stores, and it earns more stable profits than the truck business.

PACCAR Financial Services gives loans and leases to dealers and customers, and it includes the PacLease truck leasing business. Revenue was $28.44 billion in 2025, and net income was $2.38 billion. PACCAR makes its trucks for the United States, Canada and Mexico in factories in those countries.

The market prices PACCAR for a weak North American truck market and for uncertain emissions rules. PACCAR delivered 39,800 trucks in the United States and Canada in the first half of 2026, down from 45,200 a year earlier. Customers delayed truck purchases while the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reviewed the 2027 NOx emissions rules and while freight rates were low. In Q3 2026, demand started to recover.

US and Canada deliveries rose to 23,800 trucks from 17,100 a year earlier, and Truck segment pre-tax profit rose to $455 million from $103 million. PACCAR now estimates US and Canada Class 8 retail sales of 240,000 to 260,000 trucks in 2026 and 240,000 to 280,000 trucks in 2027. For the gap to close, four things must be true. Retail sales in 2027 must reach at least the low end of the company's range, as customers replace old trucks.

Truck margins must stay near the Q3 2026 level, helped by higher prices and lower tariff costs. Parts revenue must keep growing, as it did in Q3 2026. The EPA's final 2027 NOx rule must also not add large new costs. The Q4 2026 report in late January 2027 gives the next test.

If these checks pass, the gap can close over the next three to five quarters. The main reason it may not close is a weak freight market that delays the replacement of old trucks.

Every filing on SEC EDGAR (CIK 75362)

• Truck sales are cyclical. US and Canada deliveries fell 12% in the first half of 2026 and recovered only in Q3 2026. If freight rates stay low, customers can delay truck purchases into 2027 and later, and Truck segment profit falls.
• The EPA's final 2027 NOx rule is not yet published. A final rule with higher costs, or more delays, can change when customers buy trucks and can increase PACCAR's engine and warranty costs.
• Tariff policy can change. PACCAR builds most trucks locally, but tariffs on steel, aluminum and parts, or new rules under Section 232, can increase its costs.
• PACCAR Financial Services had a provision for losses on receivables of $112.1 million in the first nine months of 2026, up from $84.0 million a year earlier. Lower used truck prices or more customer defaults can reduce its profit.

PACCAR keeps two parts of its balance sheet apart. The Truck, Parts and Other businesses had cash and marketable securities of $9.24 billion at September 30, 2026, and no debt. Read more
