On March 16, 2026, 36 shares of common stock were disposed of at $131.58 per share as a tax-withholding transaction, meaning shares were delivered to cover tax obligations rather than sold on the open market.

After this event, he directly holds 1,813 common shares and indirectly holds 535 shares through a 401(k) plan. The filing shows routine equity compensation and tax withholding activity rather than a change in investment stance.

National Presto Industries, Inc. reported 2025 results showing strong growth in sales but weaker profitability. Consolidated sales rose by $115,296,000 (30%), driven mainly by the Defense segment, while net earnings fell 20% to $33,084,000 and earnings before income taxes declined 17% to $42,119,000.
Defense net sales increased 43% to $405,937,000, supported by large U.S. Army 40mm ammunition contracts and a Defense backlog that grew to about $1,747,809,000 as of December 31, 2025. Housewares/Small Appliance sales fell 7% to $95,604,000, and tariffs on goods shipped from the Orient after January 31, 2025, plus distribution center relocation costs, sharply reduced that segment’s gross profit.
The Safety segment remains startup in nature with limited revenues of $1,983,000 and negative margins. Cash from operations was a use of $9,137,000, reflecting higher inventories and receivables tied to Defense growth, while the company invested heavily in property, plant and equipment and drew on its revolving credit line. A March 1, 2025 cybersecurity incident caused temporary operational disruption but, after investigation, was found to have no material impact on financial condition or results. The board declared a regular dividend of $1.00 per share payable March 20, 2026; there was no extra dividend in 2025.
