2025 Fiscal Second Quarter Results of Operations

Net Income (Loss)

Net income was $1.7 million, or $0.09 earnings per diluted share, in the 2025 fiscal second quarter, compared to net loss of ($0.4) million during the 2024 fiscal second quarter, equating to ($0.04) earnings per diluted share. The $2.1 million variance is due primarily to increased sales and improved gross profit margin.

Net Sales

Net sales in the 2025 fiscal second quarter were $14.1 million, an increase of $5.1 million, or 56.2%, compared to 2024 fiscal second quarter net sales of $9.0 million. The increase in net sales was driven by a $4.3 million or 100.4% increase in ATS, a $0.4 million or 51.7% increase in ADMS and a $0.3 million or 10.5% increase in Sterilizer Systems net sales in 2025 fiscal second quarter compared to 2024 fiscal second quarter net sales.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the 2025 fiscal second quarter of $4.2 million increased from $2.3 million in the 2024 fiscal second quarter, an increase of $1.9 million or 83.3%. Gross profit margin of 29.8% increased 4.4% in the 2025 fiscal second quarter compared to 25.4% in the 2024 fiscal second quarter. The increase in gross profit was due to higher net sales within the ATS, ADMS and Sterilizer Systems business units, along with an increased overhead absorption resulting from higher production levels.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses, including sales and marketing, general and administrative, and research and development, for the 2025 fiscal second quarter were $2.2 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 6.1%, compared to $2.4 million for the 2024 fiscal second quarter. Operating expenses decreased due primarily to lower research and development expense for the 2025 fiscal second quarter as compared to the 2024 fiscal second quarter. The increase in sales and gross profit margin along with the decrease in operating expenses resulted in an improvement in operating margin from (-0.8%) in the 2024 second fiscal quarter to 14.0% in the 2025 fiscal second quarter.

2025 Fiscal First Half Results of Operations

Net Income (Loss)

Net income was $3.1 million, or $0.17 earnings per diluted share, in the 2025 fiscal first half, compared to net loss of ($1.5) million during the 2024 fiscal first half, equating to ($0.11) earnings per diluted share. The $4.6 million variance is attributable to an increase in sales and improved gross profit margin.

Net Sales

Net sales in the 2025 fiscal first half were $27.6 million, an increase of $10.9 million, or 65.3%, compared to 2024 fiscal first half net sales of $16.7 million. The increase in net sales is primarily attributable to a $7.7 million or 106.8% increase in ATS 2025 fiscal first half net sales and a $3.2 million or 54.1% increase in sterilizer systems net sales in the 2025 fiscal first half as compared to the 2024 fiscal first half.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the 2025 fiscal first half was $8.7 million compared to $4.1 million in the 2024 fiscal first half, an increase of $4.6 million, or 111.5%. Gross profit margin of 31.6% increased 6.9% in the 2025 fiscal first half compared to 24.7% in the 2024 fiscal first half. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to an increase in net sales and gross profit margin within the ATS and Sterilizer Systems business units.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses, including sales and marketing, general and administrative, and research and development, for the 2025 fiscal first half were $5.2 million, an increase of $0.2 million, or 4.4%, compared to $5.0 million for the 2024 fiscal first half. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to increased expense related to higher sales and personnel expense and general and administrative expense slightly offset by a decrease in research and development expense. The increase in sales and gross profit margin along with the decrease in operating expenses resulted in an improvement in operating margin from (-5.1%) in the 2024 fiscal first half to 12.8% in the 2025 fiscal first half.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net for the 2025 fiscal first half was $0.3 million compared to interest expense, net of $0.4 million for the 2024 fiscal first half, a favorable variance of $0.1 million. The favorable variance was primarily attributable to an increase in interest income included in the proceeds received related to the 2020 and 2021 Employee Retention Credits received in the 2025 first fiscal first half.

Cash Flows from Operating, Investing, and Financing Activities

During the 2025 fiscal first half, the Company used $2.1 million of cash from operating activities, due primarily from an increase in contract assets and reduction in accounts payable and contract liabilities, slightly offset by an increase in net income and a decrease in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses and other assets, as compared to using $5.9 million during the 2024 fiscal first half.

Cash used for investing activities was $0.2 million during the 2025 and 2024 fiscal first half and primarily relates to funds used for capital expenditures on equipment and software development.

The Company’s financing activities included borrowings of $1.6 million during the first half of fiscal 2025 under the Company’s credit facility as compared to borrowing $4.7 million of cash during the 2024 fiscal first half under the Company’s credit facilities.
