Recent PDEX news over the last six months has generally been followed by negative price reactions, even when the underlying announcements were operationally positive.
Over the past several months, Pro-Dex reported multiple positive business developments, including a contract extension with its largest customer on Dec 17, 2025 and strong fiscal 2025 results with net sales up 24% to $66.6M. Fiscal 2026 Q1 results on Oct 30, 2025 showed higher sales and earnings, aided by investment gains. Despite these fundamentals-focused updates, the stock posted negative or slightly negative moves after each, framing today’s stronger Q2 and six‑month results against a backdrop of selling into good news.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlighted solid operational momentum, with Q2 net sales of $18.7M, improved quarterly gross margin at 31%, and six‑month diluted EPS of $2.07. At the same time, the six‑month gross margin eased to 30% and results were boosted by a $6.8M realized gain from an investment. Recent history shows the stock has sometimes weakened after positive news, so continued trends in margins, mix, and core operating income are key metrics to watch.
