Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

In response to recent investor questions, Albany International Corp. (the “Company”) is providing additional clarifying information related to remarks given during the Company’s second quarter ended June 30, 2021 earnings call, held on July 27, 2021:

With respect to the F-35 platform, the Company no longer expects the decline of $15 million in revenue in full-year 2021, compared to full-year 2020.  The Company now expects that this decline in revenue will be in the range of $6 to 8 million.

With respect to the 787 program, revenue declined by $8 million for the second quarter 2021 compared to 2020, rather than $14 million, and for the full-year 2021 the Company now expects revenue from the platform of about $10 million, representing a decline from full-year 2020 of about $30 million, rather than $40 million.

The above clarifications have no impact on the Company’s reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021 or its financial guidance for full-year 2021.
