Newest figures come from the 10-K for FY2025, filed Jun 30, 2026. Each column of the statement tables below links to the filing it was taken from, and every filing is listed on the TIKK SEC filings page.
Tel Instrument Electronics (TIKK) reported $9.3M in revenue for fiscal year 2025, up 5.5% from the prior fiscal year. This page shows its income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and key financial ratios. View 15 years of annual fundamentals and quarterly data, with year-over-year growth rates and compound annual growth rates (CAGR). All figures are derived from SEC filings (10-K and 10-Q reports).
Margin volatility has turned intermittent profitability into cash strain despite a still-positive current ratio.
FY2025 revenue increased from FY2024 while gross margin compressed from45.6% to21.5% ; the deterioration therefore sits in cost structure or sales mix, not simply volume. With operating income of-$2.3M and operating cash flow of-$441K , the latest loss was not matched by an equally large cash outflow, suggesting working-capital release or noncash charges softened the cash impact.
In FY2024, positive net income of
Debt-to-equity rose from 0.6x in FY2024 to 2.1x in FY2025, meaning liabilities now sit against a much thinner equity base. A 1.6x current ratio and 3.3-month liquidity comparison indicate short-term resources are present, but do not replace restoring operating cash generation.
Financial Health Signals
Tel Instrument Electronics does not currently provide enough eligible data for a peer-relative financial health score, so none is published. The signals and metrics below are current.
Tel Instrument Electronics scores -1.16, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($4.9M) relative to total liabilities ($4.2M). This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.
Distress-screening estimate for non-financial companies. Not computed for banks or insurers, where the Altman model does not apply.
Tel Instrument Electronics passes 3 of 8 computable financial strength tests (1 of the nine could not be computed from available data). 1 of 4 profitability signals pass, 1 of 2 leverage/liquidity signals pass, 1 of 2 efficiency signals pass.
Tel Instrument Electronics reported a net loss of $4.9M while operations used $441K of cash. With neither figure positive, the ratio between the two carries no quality signal.
Tel Instrument Electronics reported an operating loss of $2.3M against $104K in interest expense. There is no operating profit to cover interest, so interest must be met from cash reserves or from financing rather than from operations.
