Executive summary

  • Q3 FY26 revenue was $16.9 million, with nine-month revenue at $47.8 million, both down year-over-year due to lower satellite program revenues and higher SG&A expenses.

  • Net income for Q3 FY26 was $1.6 million ($0.16/share), and $4.0 million ($0.41/share) for nine months, both significantly below prior year levels due to lower revenue and a prior-year tax benefit.

  • Backlog reached a record $83 million as of January 31, 2026, up from $70 million at April 30, 2025, with new awards expected to push it above $100 million.

  • Two new contracts totaling $45 million were announced, among the largest in company history, spanning both traditional and proliferated satellite programs.

  • Company maintains strong working capital of $32–32.4 million and a current ratio of 2.6:1 as of January 31, 2026.

  • Q3 FY26 revenue: $16.9 million, down from $18.9 million YoY, and nine-month revenue: $47.8 million, down 4% YoY.

  • Operating income for Q3 FY26 was $1.3 million, and $3.3 million for nine months, both lower YoY.

Outlook and guidance

  • Management anticipates additional contract awards of similar magnitude in both traditional and new business lines within the calendar year.

  • Expects backlog to surpass $100 million soon, with further growth as new awards are added.

  • Gross margin expected to improve over time as higher-rate production and follow-on business increase, though short-term margins on proliferated satellite programs will be lower.

  • Continued investment in R&D and expansion into quantum sensing, ALT-PNT, and proliferated satellite applications.

  • Liquidity is considered adequate for both short- and long-term needs, with no debt.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
