Richardson Electronics (NASDAQ: RELL) posts Q3 profit on higher sales
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Richardson Electronics, Ltd. reported improved results for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2026, returning to profitability after prior-year losses. Quarterly net sales rose to $55.5 million, with net income of $0.9 million, driven mainly by growth in the Power and Microwave Technologies segment and slightly higher gross margin of 31.9%. For the first nine months, net sales reached $162.4 million and net income was $2.7 million, reflecting better product mix and operating leverage.
The Green Energy Solutions segment grew year-to-date but declined in the quarter, while Canvys saw softer North American demand in Q3 despite higher year-to-date sales. Cash and cash equivalents were $29.5 million with no borrowings on the $20 million revolving credit facility, and total assets were $199.8 million, indicating a solid balance sheet. The company continues to benefit from restructuring of its former Healthcare business and focuses on engineered solutions across power, RF and green energy markets.

We currently operate within the following major geographic regions: North America, Asia/Pacific, Europe and Latin America.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
Our fiscal quarter ends on the Saturday nearest the end of the quarter-ending month. The third quarter of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 both contained 13 weeks. The first nine months of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 both contained 39 weeks. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of interim periods have been made. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein include the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to applicable rules and regulations. The results of our operations for the nine months ended February 28, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending May 30, 2026.
The financial information contained in this report should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, which was filed with the SEC on August 4, 2025.

3. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - NOT YET ADOPTED
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("'FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands the disclosures required in an entity's income tax rate reconciliation table and requires disclosure of income taxes paid in both U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, to be applied on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. These requirements will impact our income tax disclosures and we are currently evaluating the impact of adoption.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement (Topic 220): Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, which requires an entity to disclose on an annual and interim basis, disaggregated information about specific income statement expense categories. The guidance should be applied prospectively with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 – Interim Reporting (“ASU 2025-11”) which is intended to improve the navigability of the guidance in ASC 270, Interim Reporting, and clarify when it applies. Under the amendments, an entity is subject to ASC 270 if it provides interim financial statements and notes in accordance with GAAP. ASU 2025-11 also addresses the form and content of such financial statements, interim disclosures requirements, and establishes a principle under which an entity must disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. ASU 2025-11 is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2025-11 may have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Warranties: We offer assurance-type warranties for specific products we manufacture. We estimate the cost to perform under the warranty obligation and recognize this estimated cost at the time of the related product sale. We record expenses related to our warranty obligations as cost of sales in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Each quarter, we assess the actual warranty costs incurred on a product-by-product basis and compare the warranty costs to our estimated warranty obligation. With respect to new products, estimates are based generally on knowledge of the products and warranty experience.
Warranty reserves are established for costs that are expected to be incurred after the sale and delivery of products under warranty. Warranty reserves are included in accrued liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The warranty reserves are determined based on known product failures, historical experience and other available evidence. Warranty reserves were approximately $
Common and Class B Common Stock: At the Annual Meeting held on October 7, 2025, stockholders approved the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation which increased the aggregate number of shares authorized for issuance to twenty-five million shares (
Revenue Recognition: We sell our products to customers in diversified industries and perform periodic credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition. Terms are generally open account, payable net 30 days in North America, and vary throughout Asia/Pacific, Europe and Latin America. Estimates of credit losses are recorded in the financial statements based on monthly reviews of outstanding accounts.
Our customers are generally not resellers, but rather businesses that incorporate our products into their processes from which they generate an economic benefit. The goods are also distinct in that each item sold to the customer is clearly identified on both the purchase order and resulting invoice. Each product we sell benefits the customer independently of the other products. Each item on each purchase order from the customer can be used by the customer unrelated to any other products we provide to the customer. We derive most revenue from the sale of products. Generally, the performance obligation under contracts are satisfied when there is a transfer of control of the products to our customer, which is primarily upon shipment or, in certain instances, upon the delivery of the products to the named customer location.
9
We also generate revenue from repair, installation or training activities. The services we provide are relatively short in duration and are typically completed in one or two weeks. Therefore, at each reporting date, the amount of unbilled work is insignificant. The services revenue has consistently accounted for less than
We record discounts taken based on historical experience. The Company allows returns with prior written authorization. We estimate returns based on historical experience. The policy varies by business unit. The Company maintains a reserve for returns based on historical trends that cover all contracts and revenue streams using the expected value method because we have a large number of contracts with similar characteristics, which is considered variable consideration. The reserve for returns creates a refund liability on our balance sheet as a contra trade accounts receivable as well as an asset in inventory. We value the inventory at cost due to there being minimal or no costs to the Company as we generally require the customer to pay freight and we typically do not have costs associated with activities such as relabeling or repackaging. The reserve is considered immaterial at each balance sheet date. Returns for defective product are typically covered by our suppliers’ warranty, thus, returns for defective product are not factored into our reserve.
Principal versus agent guidance was considered for products that are provided by our suppliers versus manufactured by the Company. The Company acts as the principal as we are responsible for satisfying the performance obligation. We have primary responsibility for fulfilling the contract, we have inventory risk prior to delivery to our customer, we establish prices, our consideration is not in the form of a commission and we bear the credit risk. The Company recognizes revenue in the gross amount of consideration.
Contracts with customers: A revenue contract exists once a customer purchase order is received, reviewed and accepted. Each accepted purchase order identifies a distinct good or service as a performance obligation. The goods include standard products purchased from a supplier and stocked on our shelves, customized products purchased from a supplier, products that are customized or have value added to them in house prior to shipping to the customer and manufactured products. Prior to accepting a customer purchase order, we review the credit worthiness of the customer. Purchase orders are deemed to meet the collectability criterion once the customer’s credit is approved. The Company receives advance payments or deposits from our customers before revenue is recognized resulting in contract liabilities. Contract liabilities are included in accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
On occasion, the Company enters bill-and-hold arrangements. Each bill-and-hold arrangement is reviewed and revenue is recognized only when the control has transferred to our customer and certain criteria have been met: (i) the reason for the bill-and-hold arrangement is substantive; (ii) the product is segregated from the Company’s other inventory items held for sale; (iii) the product is ready for shipment to the customer; and (iv) the Company does not have the ability to use the product or direct it to another customer.

Refer to Note 9, Segment Information for a disaggregation of revenue by reportable segment which represents how our CODM reviews information internally to evaluate our financial performance and to make resource allocation and other decisions for the Company.
Loss Contingencies: We accrue a liability for loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When only a range of possible loss can be established, the most probable amount in the range is accrued. If no amount within this range is a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. If we determine that there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss may have been incurred, we will include a disclosure describing the contingency.

5. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY
On October 7, 2025, the Company executed a
The Credit Agreement provides that the Company must maintain compliance with a maximum consolidated leverage ratio covenant and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, each as determined in accordance with the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also contains affirmative, negative and financial covenants customary for financings of this type, including, among other things, limitations on certain other indebtedness, loans and investments, liens, mergers, asset sales, and transactions with affiliates, as well as customary events of default for financings of this type. The Company was in compliance with financial covenants under the Credit Agreement as of February 28, 2026.
Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate per annum selected by the Company from the following options: (a) Term secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") for the applicable Interest Period, plus the SOFR Adjustment for the applicable Interest Period, plus
6. LEASE OBLIGATIONS
The Company leases real and personal property in the normal course of business under various operating leases. The Company uses operating leases for facility space and automobiles. Most of the leased facility space is for sales and general office use. Automobile leases are used throughout the Company. Several leases include renewal clauses which vary in length and may not include specific rent renewal amounts. The Company will revise the value of the right of use assets and associated lease liabilities upon a remeasurement event.

In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. Years prior to fiscal 2015 are closed for examination under the statute of limitation for U.S. federal, and U.S. state. In The Netherlands, years prior to fiscal 2020 are closed for examination. We are under examination in Germany for fiscal years 2019 to 2022. During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we received a notice from the State of Illinois for an income tax audit covering the period from June 2021 to May 2023.

We have considered the impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) on the Company’s annual effective tax rate. The impact of OBBBA on the annual effective tax rate includes the reduction in the research and development credit from the Section 280c election.

8. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Our Class B common stock is considered a participating security requiring the use of the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. The two-class computation method for each period reflects the cash dividends paid per share for each class of stock, plus the amount of allocated undistributed earnings per share computed using the participation percentage which reflects the dividend rights of each class of stock. Basic and diluted earnings per share were computed using the two-class method. The shares of Class B common stock are considered to be participating convertible securities since the shares of Class B common stock are convertible on a share-for-share basis into shares of common stock and may participate in dividends with common stock according to a predetermined formula which is
The allocation of undistributed earnings (loss) between common stock and Class B common stock is based on the relationship of the weighted shares outstanding for the respective stock class (common or Class B) to the total of the weighted shares outstanding for common stock and
The earnings per share (“EPS”) presented in our Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) was based on the following amounts (in thousands, except per share amounts):

INTRODUCTION
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to assist the reader in better understanding our business, results of operations, financial condition, changes in financial condition and significant developments. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes appearing elsewhere in this filing. This section is organized as follows:
Business Overview
Richardson Electronics, Ltd. (the "Company," "we," "our") is a leading global manufacturer of engineered solutions, green energy products, power grid and microwave tubes, and related consumables; power conversion and RF and microwave components including green energy solutions; tubes for diagnostic imaging equipment; and customized display solutions. More than 55% of our products are manufactured in LaFox, Illinois, Marlborough, Massachusetts, or Donaueschingen, Germany, or by one of our manufacturing partners throughout the world. All our partners manufacture to our strict specifications and per our supplier code of conduct. We serve customers in the alternative energy, healthcare, aviation, broadcast, communications, industrial, marine, medical, military, scientific, and semiconductor markets. The Company’s strategy is to provide specialized technical expertise and “engineered solutions” based on our core engineering and manufacturing capabilities. The Company provides solutions and adds value through design-in support, systems integration, prototype design and manufacturing, testing, logistics, and aftermarket technical service and repair through its global infrastructure.
Some of the Company's products are manufactured in foreign countries and imported into the United States. Accordingly, the Company’s operations are subject to tariffs and other trade protection measures. The current U.S. administration has instituted certain changes, and may make additional changes, in trade policies that include the negotiation or termination of trade agreements, higher tariffs on imports into the U.S., and other measures affecting trade between the U.S. and other countries from which the Company imports. Due in part to these measures, some countries are changing their trade policies relating to goods imported from the U.S. These global trade disruptions and geopolitical tensions, together with any related downturns in the global economy, could dampen customer demand, increase market volatility, and impact currency exchange rates, all which could materially and adversely affect the Company’s financial performance.
20
The extent to which of these changes in trade policies may impact our business will depend on various factors, including (i) when trade measures are implemented, (ii) the ultimate amount, scope, nature, and duration of tariffs and other trade measures, and (iii) the extent to which the Company can mitigate impacts and pass on any increased costs associated with these changes. In addition, the impact of trade disruptions on general economic conditions and demand for electronic components is difficult to predict.
Our results for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 were not materially impacted by the changes in trade policies implemented by the U.S. However, it is possible that further tariffs may be imposed on imports of our products, including by other countries, or that our business will be impacted by changing trade relations among countries. Management continues to work with its suppliers as well as its customers to mitigate the impact of the tariffs on our customers’ markets, including with respect to tariff refund claims. However, if the Company is unable to successfully pass through the additional cost of these tariffs, or if the higher prices reduce demand for the Company's products, it will have a negative effect on the Company's sales and gross margins.
The Company reports its financial performance based on the operating and reportable segments defined as follows:
Power and Microwave Technologies ("PMT") combines our core engineered solutions capabilities, power grid and microwave tube business with new disruptive RF, Wireless and Power technologies. As a designer, manufacturer, technology partner and authorized distributor, PMT’s strategy is to provide specialized technical expertise and engineered solutions based on our core engineering and manufacturing capabilities on a global basis. We provide solutions and add value through design-in support, systems integration, prototype design and manufacturing, testing, logistics and aftermarket technical service and repair - all through our existing global infrastructure. PMT’s focus is on products for power, RF and microwave applications for customers in 5G, aviation, broadcast, communications, industrial, marine, medical, military, scientific and semiconductor markets. PMT focuses on various applications including broadcast transmission, CO2 laser cutting, diagnostic imaging, dielectric and induction heating, high energy transfer, high voltage switching, plasma, power conversion, radar and radiation oncology. PMT also offers its customers technical services for both microwave and industrial equipment. After the sale of certain assets to DirectMed, the Company continues to repair certain CT tubes and sells them exclusively to DirectMed pursuant to a supply agreement.
Green Energy Solutions ("GES") combines our key technology partners and engineered solutions capabilities to design and manufacture innovative products for the fast-growing energy storage market and power management applications. As a designer, manufacturer, technology partner and authorized distributor, GES’s strategy is to provide specialized technical expertise and engineered solutions using our core design engineering and manufacturing capabilities on a global basis. We provide solutions and add value through design-in support, systems integration, prototype design and manufacturing, testing, logistics and aftermarket technical service and repair - all through our existing global infrastructure. GES’s focus is on products for numerous green energy applications such as wind, solar, hydrogen and Electric Vehicles, and other power management applications that support green solutions such as synthetic diamond manufacturing.
Canvys provides customized display solutions serving the corporate enterprise, financial, healthcare, industrial and medical original equipment manufacturers markets. Our engineers design, manufacture, source and support a full spectrum of solutions to match the needs of our customers. We offer long-term availability and proven custom display solutions that include touch screens, protective panels, custom enclosures, All-In-One computers, specialized cabinet finishes and application specific software packages and certification services.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2026, consolidated net sales increased 3.1% compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Sales for PMT increased 9.7%, sales for GES decreased 5.4% and sales for Canvys decreased 13.5%. The increase in PMT was primarily due to increases in both our semiconductor equipment and RF/Microwave component segments The decrease in GES was mainly due to a decrease in legacy tube customers offset by increase in market share through new products and territory expansion. The decrease in Canvys was attributable to lower sales in the North American markets.
During the first nine months of fiscal 2026, consolidated net sales increased 3.4% compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2025. Sales for PMT increased 2.8%, sales for GES increased 4.3% and sales for Canvys increased 5.6%. The increase in PMT was primarily due to increases in both our semiconductor equipment and RF/Microwave component segments. The increase in GES was mainly due to an increase in market share through current and new products with territory expansion. The increase in Canvys was attributable to increased sales in the European markets.

Gross profit reflects the distribution and manufacturing product margin less manufacturing variances, inventory obsolescence charges, customer returns, scrap and cycle count adjustments, engineering costs and other provisions.
Consolidated gross profit increased to $17.7 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $16.7 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Consolidated gross margin as a percentage of net sales during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 increased to 31.9% when compared to 31.0% during the third quarter of fiscal 2025. This margin increase was mainly due to favorable product mix and improved manufacturing absorption in PMT, unfavorable product mix in GES, and unfavorable manufacturing absorption and higher freight costs in Canvys.
Consolidated gross profit increased to $50.7 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 compared to $48.4 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2025. Consolidated gross margin as a percentage of net sales during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 increased to 31.2% when compared to 30.8% during the first nine months of fiscal 2025. This margin increase was mainly due to favorable product mix in PMT, unfavorable product mix in GES and unfavorable product mix and higher freight costs in Canvys.
23
Power and Microwave Technologies
PMT net sales increased 9.7% to $38.7 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 from $35.3 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase was due primarily to increases in both our semiconductor equipment and RF/Microwave component segments. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales increased to 32.1% during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to 29.9% during the third quarter of fiscal 2025 due to product mix and improved manufacturing absorption.
PMT net sales increased 2.8% to $113.0 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 from $110.0 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2025.

Gross margin as a percentage of net sales increased to 31.3% during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 as compared to 30.2% during the first nine months of fiscal 2025 due to product mix.
Green Energy Solutions
GES net sales decreased 5.4% to $8.8 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 from $9.3 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease reflected a decrease in legacy tube customers offset by an increase in market share through new products and territory expansion. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales decreased to 30.8% during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to 32.8% during the third quarter of fiscal 2025 due to product mix.
GES net sales increased 4.3% to $24.4 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 from $23.3 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2025. The increase reflected an increase in market share through current and new products with territory expansion. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales decreased to 30.3% during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to 31.4% during the third quarter of fiscal 2025 due to product mix.
Canvys
Canvys net sales decreased 13.5% to $8.0 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 from $9.2 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to lower sales in the North American markets. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales decreased to 32.2% during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 from 33.2% during the third quarter of fiscal 2025 primarily due to unfavorable manufacturing absorption and higher freight costs.
Canvys net sales increased 5.6% to $25.0 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 from $23.7 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2025, due to increased sales in the European markets. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales decreased to 31.9% during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 from 33.1% during the first nine months of fiscal 2025 primarily due to product mix and higher freight costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased to $16.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 when compared to $14.5 million for the year ago quarter mainly due to increased salaries, medical benefits, travel, and higher incentives due to sales growth. Expressed as a percentage of net sales, SG&A was 29.2% for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 26.9% in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.
SG&A increased to $48.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 when compared to $46.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2025 mainly due to increased salaries, legal expenses, and higher incentives due to sales growth. Expressed as a percentage of net sales, SG&A was 29.6% for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 compared to 29.7% in the first nine months of fiscal 2025.
24
Other Income/Expense
Other income and expense primarily includes interest income, foreign exchange gains and foreign exchange losses. Our foreign exchange gains and losses are primarily due to the translation of U.S. dollars held in non-U.S. entities. We currently do not utilize derivative instruments to manage our exposure to foreign currency.
Other expense during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 totaled $0.3 million compared to other expense of $0.3 million for third quarter of fiscal 2025.
Other income during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 totaled $0.7 million, compared to other expense of $0.4 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2025.The increase from fiscal 2025 was mainly due to a non-recurring gain of $0.9 million.
Income Tax Provision (Benefit)
We recorded an income tax provision of $0.3 million and an income tax benefit of $1.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 and the third quarter of fiscal 2025, respectively. The effective income tax rate during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 was a tax provision of 25.3% as compared to a tax benefit of 33.4% during the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The difference in rate during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2025 reflects changes in our geographical distribution of income (loss) and the nonrecurring healthcare asset sale loss in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The 25.3% effective income tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% as a result of our geographical distribution of income (loss) and the impact of permanent items.
We recorded an income tax provision of $0.6 million and an income tax benefit of $1.3 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 and the first nine months of fiscal 2025, respectively. The effective income tax rate during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 was a tax provision of 19.5% as compared to a tax benefit of 36.5% during the first nine months of fiscal 2025. The difference in rate during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 as compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2025 reflects changes in our geographical distribution of income (loss) and the nonrecurring healthcare asset sale loss in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The 19.5% effective income tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% as a result of our geographical distribution of income (loss) and the impact of permanent items.
The Company's reserve for uncertain tax positions totaled $0.3 million as of February 28, 2026, and May 31, 2025. We record interest related to uncertain tax positions in the income tax expense line item within the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Accrued interest was included within the related tax liability line in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We have recorded a liability of less than $0.1 million for interest as of February 28, 2026 and May 31, 2025.
The Company maintains a valuation allowance representing the portion of the deferred tax asset that management does not believe is more likely than not to be realized. The valuation allowance was $2.9 million as of February 28, 2026, and $2.8 million as of May 31, 2025. The valuation allowance relates to state NOLs ($1.7 million) and deferred tax assets in foreign jurisdictions where historical taxable losses have been incurred ($1.2 million). The amount of the deferred tax asset that is not considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are increased, or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight may be given to subjective evidence such as our projections for growth.
We have considered the impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) on the Company’s annual effective tax rate. The impact of OBBBA on the annual effective tax rate includes the reduction in the research and development credit from the Section 280c election. These changes did not have a significant impact to the annual effective tax rate. However, the enactment of the OBBBA introduced several significant tax law modifications that, while not affecting the annual effective tax rate, do have other implications for the Company. The OBBBA makes permanent key elements of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including 100% bonus depreciation and domestic research cost expensing pursuant to IRC §174 for fiscal year beginning after December 31, 2024. The Company has reflected the change in tax law in its annual effective tax rate through the reduction of its research and development credit under IRC Section 41 through the IRC Section 280C(c)(2) election. The Company will evaluate other OBBBA-related items at year end as part of determining taxable income, including bonus depreciation, domestic research cost expensing pursuant to IRC §174, and any other applicable elections available under OBBBA.
25
Net Income and Per Share Data
Net income during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 was $0.9 million, or $0.07 per diluted common share and $0.06 per Class B diluted common share as compared to a net loss of $2.1 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2025 or $0.15 per diluted common share and $0.13 per Class B diluted common share.
Net income during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 was $2.7 million, or $0.19 per diluted common share and $0.17 per Class B diluted common share as compared to a net loss of $2.2 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2025 or $0.16 per diluted common share and $0.14 per Class B diluted common share.
LIQUIDITY, FINANCIAL POSITION AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our operations and cash needs have been primarily financed through operations and cash on hand.
Cash and cash equivalents were $29.5 million at February 28, 2026. Cash and cash equivalents by geographic area on February 28, 2026 consisted of $11.2 million in North America, $9.7 million in Europe, $0.8 million in Latin America and $7.8 million in Asia/Pacific. No cash was repatriated to the United States in the first nine months of fiscal 2026. Although the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act generally eliminated federal income tax on future cash repatriation to the United States, cash repatriation may be subject to state and local taxes, withholding or similar taxes.
Cash and cash equivalents were $35.9 million at May 31, 2025. Cash and cash equivalents by geographic area at May 31, 2025 consisted of $19.5 million in North America, $7.7 million in Europe, $0.9 million in Latin America and $7.8 million in Asia/Pacific. No cash was repatriated to the United States in fiscal 2025.
Our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements primarily arise from: (i) working capital requirements, (ii) capital expenditure needs and (iii) cash dividend payments (if and when declared by our Board of Directors). Our ability to fund these requirements will depend, in part, on our future cash flows, which are determined by our future operating performance and, therefore, subject to prevailing global macroeconomic conditions and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control.
Based on past performance and current expectations, we believe that the existing sources of liquidity, including current cash, will provide sufficient resources to meet known capital requirements and working capital needs through the next twelve months. Additionally, while our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, the economy and the outlook for growth in our markets, we believe our existing sources of liquidity as well as our ability to generate operating cash flows will satisfy our future obligations and cash requirements.
On October 7, 2025, the Company executed a three-year extension to the PNC Credit Agreement through the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement with a maximum borrowing limit of $20 million. The terms of the new agreement are similar to the previous Credit Agreement. See Note 5, Revolving Credit Facility, included in Part I, Item 1 for further information. The Revolving Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company's domestic subsidiaries. Proceeds of the borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, if any, are expected to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries. There were no drawings or repayments under the Revolving Credit Facility as of February 28, 2026 and through the report release date. No amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility as of February 28, 2026, and through the report release date.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities are primarily a result of our net income adjusted for non-cash items and changes in our operating assets and liabilities.
Operating activities used $1.4 million of cash during the first nine months of fiscal 2026. We had a net income of $2.7 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2026, which included non-cash share-based compensation expense of $1.3 million associated with the issuance of stock option and restricted stock awards, inventory reserve provisions of $0.3 million, unrealized foreign exchange gain of $0.4 million, and depreciation and amortization expense of $2.9 million associated with our property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities utilized $8.2 million in cash during the first nine months of fiscal 2026, net of foreign currency exchange gains and losses, included an increase in accounts receivable of $2.5 million, an increase in inventories of $3.0 million, an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $2.9 million and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $0.8 million. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to the higher level of sales. The changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities were timing related.
26
Operating activities generated $10.5 million of cash during the first nine months of fiscal 2025. We had a net loss of $2.2 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2025, which included non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $1.2 million associated with the issuance of stock option and restricted stock awards, inventory reserve provisions of $0.3 million, unrealized foreign exchange loss of $0.4 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $3.0 million associated with our property, plant and equipment and intangible assets and the disposal loss on Healthcare assets of $4.9 million. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities generated $2.8 million in cash during the first nine months of fiscal 2025, net of foreign currency exchange gains and losses, included an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $3.1 million, an increase in accounts receivable of $1.5 million and a decrease in inventories of $1.1 million. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to the higher level of sales. The changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities were timing related.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities of $3.4 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 was due to capital expenditures. Capital expenditures were primarily related to our IT system and LaFox manufacturing and facilities. LaFox manufacturing primarily supports the PMT and GES segments.
Cash provided in investing activities of $5.0 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2025 was due to the $7.0 million of proceeds from the disposal of the Healthcare assets and $2.0 million offset for capital expenditures. Capital expenditures were primarily related to our IT system and LaFox manufacturing and facilities. LaFox manufacturing primarily supports the PMT and GES segments.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash flows used in financing activities consist primarily of cash dividends and cash flows provided by financing activities consist primarily of the proceeds from the issuance of stock. All future dividend payments are at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Dividend payments depend on earnings, capital requirements, operating conditions and such other factors that the Board may deem relevant.
Cash used in financing activities of $2.2 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 primarily resulted from $2.6 million of dividend payments to stockholders partially offset by $0.4 million of proceeds from the issuance of stock.
Cash used in financing activities of $2.4 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2025 primarily resulted from $2.6 million of dividend payments to stockholders partially offset by $0.3 million of proceeds from the issuance of stock.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, we make assumptions, judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Our assumptions, judgments and estimates are based on historical experience and various other factors deemed relevant. Actual results could be materially different from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We evaluate our assumptions, judgments and estimates on a regular basis. We also discuss our critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
There have been no material changes in our critical accounting estimates from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on August 4, 2025. We are not aware of any specific events or circumstances that would require us to update our estimates, assumptions and judgments.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Risk Management and Market Sensitive Financial Instruments
We are exposed to many different market risks with the various industries we serve. The primary financial risk we are exposed to is foreign currency exchange, as certain of our operations, assets and liabilities are denominated in foreign currencies. We manage these risks through normal operating and financing activities.
The interpretation and analysis of these disclosures should not be considered in isolation since such variances in exchange rates would likely influence other economic factors. Such factors, which are not readily quantifiable, would likely also affect our operations. Additional disclosure regarding various market risks is set forth in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on August 4, 2025.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management of the Company, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of February 28, 2026.
Disclosure controls and procedures are intended to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended February 28, 2026 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
