News Release

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NN, Inc. (“NN” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: NNBR), a global leader in precision manufacturing, today announced that it had completed an important balance sheet transaction.

The Company has redeemed, paid off and eliminated all of its remaining 18,400 outstanding shares of its Series D Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Stock") for approximately $30.7 million.

The redemption was funded with proceeds raised from the Company's $53.1 million private investment in public equity (PIPE) private placement completed on October 5, 2026. Additionally, the timing of this action enabled the Company to take advantage of a $5.0 million incentive provided under a prior agreement with the sole holder of the security. Thus, the $35.7 million value of the security was redeemed for $30.7 million.

This security has now been eliminated from NN’s balance sheet. No shares of the Preferred Stock remain outstanding. All of the holder’s rights associated with the Preferred Stock have also been eliminated. This completes an important stepping stone in the transformation of NN, its capital structure, and its business plan.

Harold Bevis, President and CEO of NN, commented, “NN has significantly deleveraged during 2026. We will use this newly created capital flexibility to accelerate our business plans. We also intend to refinance our Term Loan at the right time and further improve our capital structure. The Company will provide updated guidance during our next earnings call on October 29^th, 2026."
