NVE Corporation Reports Second Quarter Results and Announces Quarterly Dividend
 
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn.—October 19, 2022—NVE Corporation (Nasdaq: NVEC) announced today financial results for the quarter and six months ended September 30, 2022.

Total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 increased 57% to $10.7 million from $6.82 million for the prior-year quarter. The increase was due to a 59% increase in product sales and a 5% increase in contract research and development revenue. Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 increased 67% to $6.09 million, or $1.26 per diluted share, compared to $3.65 million, or $0.75 per share, for the prior-year quarter.

For the first six months of fiscal 2023, total revenue increased 29% to $18.1 million from $14.0 million for the first six months of the prior year. The increase was due to a 29% increase in product sales and a 19% increase in contract research and development revenue. Net income increased 42% to $10.2 million, or $2.12 per diluted share, from $7.23 million, or $1.49 per share, for the first half of fiscal 2022.

The company also announced a quarterly cash dividend to shareholders of $1.00 per share of common stock, payable November 30, 2022 to shareholders of record as of October 31, 2022.
