For Immediate Release
PRO-DEX, INC. ANNOUNCES FISCAL 2026
FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL-YEAR RESULTS
IRVINE, CA, September 3, 2026 - PRO-DEX, INC. (NasdaqCM: PDEX) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2026 fourth quarter and full-year ended June 30, 2026.
Quarter Ended June 30, 2026
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased $2.9 million, or 17%, to $20.4 million from $17.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, due primarily to increased revenue from our largest customer’s next generation orthopedic handpiece. Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased $3.6 million, or 103%, to $7.1 million from $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 similarly attributable to increased revenue from our largest customer’s next generation handpiece. During much of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, we were shipping our largest customer its legacy handpiece, until the customer released its product hold on the next generation handpiece late in that quarter, at which point we resumed production and shipment of its next generation handpiece late in the same quarter. Our gross margin increased from 20% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, to 35% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, due to favorable product mix, better absorption of our indirect manufacturing costs and favorable margins derived from our subsidiary, Advanced Precision Machining, LLC (“APM”), which we acquired in the third quarter of fiscal 2026.
Operating expenses (which include selling, general and administrative, and research and development expenses) for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, increased $1.4 million to $3.6 million, compared to $2.2 million for the prior fiscal year’s corresponding quarter. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.3 million, and research and development expenses increased by $111,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to the corresponding quarter in fiscal 2025. The increases relate primarily to a $349,000 allowance for uncollectible receivables, $436,000 of APM’s separate administrative expenses, $250,000 in consulting payments paid to the founder of APM to assist with our manufacturing operations, as well as increased personnel and related expenses to support our continued growth.
Our operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, increased $2.2 million, or 163%, to $3.5 million compared to $1.3 million for the prior fiscal year’s corresponding quarter. The increase reflects our increased gross profit partially offset by higher operating expenses, as described above.
Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, increased by $1.7 million to $2.9 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, compared to $1.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in the corresponding quarter in 2025.
Year Ended June 30, 2026
Net sales for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026 increased $10.9 million, or 16%, to $77.5 million from $66.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, due primarily to a of $15.3 million increase in revenue from our largest customer, related primarily to its next generation orthopedic handpiece, offset by a $6.0 million reduction in repair revenue, primarily from our largest customer. Additionally, our NRE revenue increased $952,000 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026 compared to the prior fiscal year and APM added $718,000 in revenue since our acquistion of APM on February 9, 2026.
Gross profit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, increased $4.8 million, or 25%, to $24.3 million compared to $19.5 million for fiscal 2025. Our gross margin increased from 29% in fiscal 2025 to 31% in fiscal 2026, due to overall favorable product mix.
Operating expenses (which include selling, general and administrative, and research and development expenses) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, increased $2.5 million or 29% to $11.3 million from $8.8 million in the prior fiscal year. The increase relates primarily to an increase of $1.2 million in personnel costs included in general and administrative expenses to support our continued growth, which amount includes $582,000 of company-wide bonus accruals and non-cash equity compensation expense, as well as $500,000 in non-recurring consulting fees paid to APM’s founder, $669,000 of APM’s separate operating expenses, and the $349,000 allowance for uncollectible receivables referenced above. The decrease in research and development expenses in fiscal 2026 is primarily related to a decrease in legal expenses related to intellectual property matters.
Our operating income for the year ended June 30, 2026, increased $2.3 million, or 22%, to $13.0 million compared to $10.7 million for the prior fiscal year’s corresponding quarter. The increase reflects our increased sales and gross profit, as described above.
Net income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, was $13.7 million, or $4.12 per diluted share, compared to $9.0 million, or $2.67 per diluted share, for fiscal 2025. Our net income for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 contains gains on our marketable equity investments of $5.7 million and $2.1 million, respectively. All of our investments are recorded at estimated fair value, and the valuation can be highly volatile.
