VPG Reports Fiscal 2026 Second Quarter Results; Orders of $96 Million Reflect Continued Strength in Key Markets
August 5, 2026
CHESTERBROOK, Pa., Aug. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vishay Precision Group, Inc. (NYSE: VPG), a leader in precision measurement and sensing technologies, today announced its results for its fiscal 2026 second quarter ended July 4, 2026.
Second Fiscal Quarter Highlights (comparisons are to the comparable period a year ago):
Net revenues of $83.9 million increased 11.7%.Gross profit margin was 38.6% as compared to 40.7%Adjusted gross profit margin* was 38.6%, as compared to 41.0%Operating margin was (0.4%) as compared to 3.6%.Adjusted operating margin* was 1.7%, as compared to 5.4%.Diluted net loss per share of $0.13 compared to diluted net earnings per share of $0.02.Adjusted diluted net earnings per share* of $0.04 compared to $0.21.Adjusted EBITDA* was $5.5 million with an adjusted EBITDA margin* of 6.5%.
Ziv Shoshani, Chief Executive Officer of VPG, commented, “We delivered another quarter of strong order momentum, with bookings of $95.5 million and a book-to-bill ratio of 1.14, driven by record quarterly orders for our precision resistors serving AI-related semiconductor, data center, aerospace and defense applications. During the quarter, we received a vendor nomination letter from our initial humanoid robotics customer, positioning us to support their planned production ramp of next-generation humanoid robots in the second half of 2026. Supported by continuing strong demand trends in our key growth markets including expected humanoid bookings and a growing backlog, we believe we are positioned to deliver organic annual revenue growth in fiscal 2026 above the 8% to 10% range previously outlined in our three-year model.”
The Company noted that its second-quarter revenue was impacted by approximately $3.0 million of delayed shipments in its steel-related systems business due to supply chain challenges resulting from implementing a new ERP system. Production at this facility is increasing, and these orders are in backlog with shipments expected to be completed by the end of the year.
Mr. Shoshani added: "Our second-quarter profits were impacted by unfavorable foreign exchange movements, which reduced profits by $3.3 million compared with the prior-year period, and by $0.9 million sequentially. Our financial results were also affected by the delayed shipments and unfavorable product mix. We continued our strategic investments to support our growth initiatives while maintaining a disciplined focus on operational execution. We remain on track to deliver approximately $6 million of cost savings in 2026 as part of three-year goal of achieving $20 million in cost reductions."
Second Fiscal Quarter and Six-Month Financial Trends:
The Company's second fiscal quarter 2026 net loss attributable to VPG stockholders was $1.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $0.3 million or $0.02 per diluted share, in the second fiscal quarter of 2025. The second-quarter operating loss included $3.3 million related to unfavorable currency exchange rates compared to the prior year.
In the six fiscal months ended July 4, 2026, net loss attributable to VPG stockholders were $2.0 million or $0.15 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $0.7 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the six fiscal months ended June 28, 2025. The operating loss for the first six months of 2026 included $4.6 million related to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates compared to the same period a year ago.
The second fiscal quarter 2026 adjusted net earnings were $0.6 million, or $0.04 per adjusted diluted share*, compared to net earnings of $2.7 million or $0.21 per adjusted diluted share* in the second fiscal quarter of 2025.
In the six fiscal months ended July 4, 2026, adjusted net earnings* were $1.5 million, or $0.11 per adjusted diluted share*, compared to net earnings of $3.6 million, or $0.28 per adjusted diluted share* in the six fiscal months ended June 28, 2025.
Segment Performance:
The Sensors segment revenue of $33.4 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2026 increased 25.8% from $26.6 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2025. Sequentially, revenue increased 0.3% compared to $33.3 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2026. The year-over-year increase in revenue was primarily attributable to higher sales of precision resistors in the Test and Measurement and AMS and higher sales of strain gage sensors in the AMS and Other markets. Sequentially, the increase in revenue primarily reflected higher sales of precision resistors in the Test & Measurement and AMS markets, which was mostly offset by lower sales of strain gages in the Test and Measurement market.
Gross profit margin for the Sensors segment was 31.5% for the second fiscal quarter of 2026, which decreased from 32.0% in the second fiscal quarter of 2025 and decreased from 34.8% in the first fiscal quarter of 2026. Adjusted gross margin* in the second fiscal quarter of 2025 of 32.2% was adjusted for $0.1 million of start-up costs. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates, which offset higher volume. The sequential decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates, higher materials costs and wage increases.
The Weighing Solutions segment revenues of $30.3 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2026 increased 3.1% from $29.4 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2025. Sequentially, revenue increased 0.4% compared to $30.2 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2026. The year-over-year increase in revenue was mainly attributable to higher sales in the General Industrial market for process weighing applications. Sequentially, higher revenue in the Transportation market was offset by lower revenue in Other markets.
Gross profit margin for the Weighing Solutions segment was 37.3% for the second fiscal quarter of 2026, which decreased from adjusted gross margin of 40.2% in the second fiscal quarter of 2025 and increased from 34.2% in the first fiscal quarter of 2026. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to unfavorable product mix and higher manufacturing costs, partially offset by higher volume. The sequential increase in gross profit margin primarily reflected cost reductions and favorable product mix.
The Measurement Systems segment revenues of $20.2 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2026 increased 5.2% from $19.2 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2025. Sequentially, revenues decreased 3.1% compared to $20.8 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2026. The year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to higher revenue in the AMS and Steel markets, which offset lower sales in the Transportation market. Sequentially, the decrease in revenue was primarily due to lower sales in the AMS and Transportation markets which were partially offset by higher sales in the Steel market.
Gross profit margin for the Measurement Systems segment was 52.5% for the second fiscal quarter of 2026, which decreased from 54.6% in the second fiscal quarter of 2025, and decreased from 52.6% in the first fiscal quarter of 2026. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to unfavorable product mix which offset higher volume. Second-quarter gross margin was essentially flat with the first quarter, as manufacturing efficiencies offset lower volume and unfavorable product mix.
Near-Term Outlook
“For the third fiscal quarter of 2026 at constant second fiscal quarter 2026 foreign currency exchange rates, despite seasonal impacts in our European operations, we expect net revenues to be in the range of $84 million to $89 million. Our guidance excludes third-quarter tariff refunds to customers which have no impact on profits,” said Mr. Shoshani.
*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information:
Beginning in fiscal 2026, the Company revised its definition of certain non-GAAP financial measures to exclude share-based compensation expense in addition to the other items described below. This change was made in light of the Company’s evolving compensation structure following recent organizational changes, including the hiring of senior executives and the expansion of equity-based incentive programs to attract and retain key talent.
Management believes that excluding share-based compensation expense in certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with additional insight into the Company’s core operating performance and enhanced understanding of business trends across reporting periods, including those in comparison to its main peer companies.
Share-based compensation expense will continue to be reflected in the Company's GAAP financial results and will be set forth in a specific line item in the reconciliation table between GAAP and non-GAAP measures. Prior-period non-GAAP financial measures have been recast to conform to the current presentation.
The Company defines “adjusted gross profit margin” as gross profit margin before start-up costs and share-based compensation expense. “Adjusted operating margin” is defined as operating margin before start-up costs, restructuring costs, severance costs and share-based compensation expense. “Adjusted net earnings” and “adjusted diluted net earnings per share” are defined as net earnings attributable to VPG stockholders before start-up costs, restructuring costs and severance costs, share-based compensation expense, foreign currency exchange gains and losses and associated tax effects. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, start-up costs, restructuring costs and severance costs, foreign currency exchange gains and losses and share-based compensation expense.
“Adjusted free cash flow” for the second fiscal quarter of 2026 is defined as the amount of cash generated from operating activities ($0.3 million) in excess of capital expenditures ($(2.0) million), net of proceed, if any, from the sale of assets ($0.3 million).
Management believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because each present what management views as our core operating results for the relevant period. The adjustments to the applicable GAAP measures relate to occurrences or events that are outside of our core operations, and management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides a consistent basis to evaluate our operating profitability and performance trends across comparable periods. These reconciling items are indicated on the accompanying reconciliation schedules and are more fully described in VPG’s consolidated financial statements presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q.
