Fourth quarter net sales increased 27.6% year over year, with growth across all three business units

Fourth quarter GAAP net income increased 244.4% to $3.7 million, or $0.25 per common share (diluted)

Fiscal 2026 net sales increased 9.4%, marking the Company’s second consecutive year of annual sales growth

Backlog reached $164.4 million, its highest level in three years and an increase of 8.7% from the third quarter

LAFOX, Ill., July 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Richardson Electronics, Ltd. (NASDAQ: RELL) today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended May 30, 2026. The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared a $0.06 per share quarterly cash dividend.

“I am pleased to report that Richardson Electronics delivered its eighth consecutive quarter of year-over-year sales growth, and the highest quarterly net sales since the third quarter of fiscal 2023. Fourth-quarter performance reflected strong demand in Power and Microwave Technologies, particularly for engineered solutions serving the semiconductor wafer fabrication equipment market, as well as distributed RF and microwave products. We also continued to see growth in Green Energy Solutions and Canvys had a record quarter. For the full fiscal year, our team executed well, delivering sales growth, improved gross margin, and stronger operating performance,” said Edward J. Richardson, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President.

“Our backlog ended the year at its highest level in three years, reflecting continued customer activity across several of our key markets. We are encouraged by the opportunities we see in power management, semiconductor manufacturing, defense, energy storage, and customized display solutions. While the broader economic environment remains fluid, our strong balance sheet, technical capabilities, and focus on higher-value engineered solutions position us well to build on the progress achieved in fiscal 2026 and create sustainable long-term value for our shareholders,” Mr. Richardson concluded. 

Fourth Quarter Results

Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 were $66.2 million, a 27.6% increase from $51.9 million in the prior year’s fourth quarter. All business units experienced strong year-over-year sales growth.

 PMT sales increased $10.4 million, or 28.1% due to strong growth in semiconductor wafer fab and RF and Microwave products. GES sales increased by $1.1 million, or 20.4% as a result of higher sales of Wind products. Canvys’ sales increased $2.8 million, or 29.5%, reflecting higher sales in North America.

 Backlog grew 8.7% to $164.4 million at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, versus $151.2 million at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2026, primarily driven by an increase in PMT. Total GES backlog improved by nearly 5%.

 Gross margin for the fourth quarter was 31.2% of net sales, compared to 31.6% during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. PMT gross margin decreased to 31.1%, compared to 31.4%, as a result of product mix. GES gross margin decreased to 30.2%, from 31.6% also due to product mix. Canvys gross margin increased to 32.3%, from 32.1% primarily due to improved freight costs as a percentage of net sales.

Operating expenses were $17.6 million, compared to $15.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase in operating expenses resulted from higher salaries and incentives driven by the significant sales growth in both the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2026.

As a percentage of net sales, operating expenses improved to 26.6% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 versus 30.0% in the prior year’s fourth quarter.
