About Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc.

Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. (NYSE: CPS) is a U.S.-based automotive and mobility supplier headquartered in Northville, Michigan, United States. The company traces its roots back more than 60 years and emerged from Cooper Tire’s automotive division, gradually building a global platform for engineering, manufacturing, and program execution. Today, Cooper-Standard serves original equipment manufacturers and other mobility customers with a focus on technically demanding components that are deeply embedded in vehicle architecture.

Its sealing portfolio includes door seals, trunk seals, custom extrusions, molded parts, and other engineered solutions that help reduce noise, vibration, and harshness while protecting the passenger compartment from water, dust, and environmental exposure. Its fluid handling portfolio includes fuel and brake delivery systems, fluid transfer systems, hoses, tubes, and related assemblies designed for powertrain, thermal management, and vehicle plumbing applications. Cooper-Standard also emphasizes its 4C product development strategy — Convey, Connect, Control and Communicate — as a framework for system-level innovation. ([cooperstandard.com](https://www.cooperstandard.com/fr/node/208?utm_source=openai)) From a competitive standpoint, Cooper-Standard operates in a specialized but cyclical tier-one automotive niche. Its competitive strengths include materials science, custom engineering, vertically integrated production, and the ability to support internal combustion engine, hybrid, and battery-electric vehicle platforms. That positioning matters because OEMs are seeking lighter, more durable, corrosion-resistant components that can be adapted across multiple vehicle architectures. The company also highlights capabilities across light vehicles, trucks and buses, recreational vehicles, and certain specialty and industrial applications, which broadens its end-market exposure beyond traditional passenger cars.

In first-quarter 2026 results, Cooper-Standard reported sales of $686.4 million, adjusted EBITDA of $51.0 million, and net new business awards of $127.9 million, while management said it remained on track to meet or exceed full-year targets. In full-year 2025 results, the company also highlighted continued margin expansion, improved cash flow, and $297.9 million of net new business awards for the year. Management further pointed to stronger liquidity after refinancing and ongoing emphasis on operational discipline, profitability, and strategic execution in a still-volatile automotive production environment.
