Pro-Dex, Inc. Announces Fiscal 2026 Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Results
Pro-Dex delivered double-digit fiscal 2026 revenue and earnings growth, supported by margin expansion and contributions from its APM acquisition.
Rhea-AI Summary
Pro-Dex (PDEX) reported fiscal 2026 fourth quarter and full-year results with net sales up 17% in Q4 ended June 30, 2026.
Quarterly net sales rose to $20.4 million from $17.5 million, driven mainly by its largest customer's next generation orthopedic handpiece. Q4 gross profit doubled to $7.1 million, lifting gross margin to 35% from 20%, while operating income rose to $3.5 million and net income to $2.9 million, or $0.87 per diluted share.
For fiscal 2026, net sales increased 16% to $77.5 million and gross profit reached $24.3 million, with gross margin improving to 31% from 29%. Operating income grew to $13.0 million, and net income was $13.7 million, or $4.12 per diluted share, aided by $5.7 million in gains on marketable equity investments. The APM acquisition added $718,000 of revenue and raised goodwill to $6.5 million. At June 30, 2026, cash was $8.2 million, total assets were $74.5 million, and shareholders' equity was $47.6 million.
Positive
- Q4 2026 net sales increased 17% to $20.4 million from $17.5 million, driven primarily by higher shipments of the largest customer's next generation orthopedic handpiece.
- Fiscal 2026 net sales grew 16% to $77.5 million from $66.6 million in fiscal 2025, reflecting higher revenue from the largest customer and increased NRE revenue.
- Gross margins improved from 20% to 35% in Q4 and from 29% to 31% for fiscal 2026, supported by favorable product mix, better overhead absorption, and contributions from APM.
- Fiscal 2026 net income rose to $13.7 million, or $4.12 per diluted share, compared with $9.0 million, or $2.67 per diluted share, in fiscal 2025.
- Cash and cash equivalents increased to $8.2 million at June 30, 2026 from $419,000 a year earlier, while shareholders' equity grew to $47.6 million from $36.6 million.
- Gains on marketable equity investments were $5.7 million in fiscal 2026 versus $2.1 million in fiscal 2025, providing an additional boost to reported net income.
Negative
- Operating expenses for fiscal 2026 increased 29% to $11.3 million from $8.8 million, including higher personnel costs, APM operating expenses, consulting fees, and a $349,000 allowance for uncollectible receivables.
- Q4 2026 operating expenses rose to $3.6 million from $2.2 million in the prior-year quarter, reflecting higher SG&A and research and development spending.
- Repair revenue declined by $6.0 million year over year, primarily from the largest customer, partially offsetting the $15.3 million increase in revenue from that customer.
- Notes payable balances increased, with current notes at $4.2 million and non-current notes at $13.3 million as of June 30, 2026, compared with $6.1 million and $9.2 million, respectively, a year earlier.
- Net income depends partly on marketable equity investment gains of $5.7 million in fiscal 2026, and the company notes that these fair value estimates can be highly volatile.
