Solitron Devices, Inc. Reports on Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Outcomes
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Solitron Devices, Inc. (OTC Pink: SODI) is excited to announce its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year of 2025. This year's performance offers a mixture of growth in certain sectors while also revealing areas needing attention.
Fourth Quarter Highlights
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, Solitron faced challenges with net sales, which declined by 22% to approximately $3.13 million, compared to $4.00 million from the same quarter last year. However, there was notable success in net bookings, which surged by an impressive 301%, reaching $8.92 million compared to $2.23 million in the prior year’s fourth quarter. This positive increase indicates strong demand in the marketplace.
Year-End Financial Performance
Over the entirety of fiscal year 2025, Solitron displayed a 10% growth in net sales, totaling about $14.05 million, up from $12.76 million during fiscal 2024. Similarly, net bookings for the full year increased by 62% to $20.76 million. This upswing in bookings reflects the effectiveness of our sales strategies and our product offerings in meeting the needs of clients in various sectors.
Impact of Micro Engineering Acquisition
A significant factor in this year’s results was the full-year inclusion of Micro Engineering, Inc. (MEI) financials in Solitron’s results following their acquisition on September 1, 2023. MEI contributed $6.08 million in revenue, emphasizing the strategic significance of this acquisition in expanding Solitron's operational capacities and product offerings.
Defense Program Contributions
Encouraging developments emerged in the defense sector, where the company experienced substantial bookings from two major defense programs. These programs provide regular orders every 12-18 months. The CEO of RTX indicated the intention to double the production schedule for the AMRAAM system in fiscal 2025, illustrating a substantial growth forecast. Similarly, the HIMARS program maintains robust operations, evidenced by its ongoing success in Ukraine.
Challenges Ahead
Despite the promising figures, the fourth quarter presented a decline in revenue due primarily to delays in fulfilling orders. As a result, soft revenues are anticipated for the initial quarter of fiscal 2026, with projected sales recovery expected by the end of the second quarter.
Future Prospects
Looking forward, Solitron is investing in new product development, particularly in innovative technologies like silicon carbide. The team is optimistic about generating additional revenue sources through the introduction of various prototypes tailored to potential customer requirements.
Financial Summary
As the fiscal year concluded, Solitron reported a net income of $0.82 million, or $0.39 per share, which is a reduction from the prior year’s net income of $5.80 million, largely due to one-off gains in fiscal 2024. The company’s financial journey illustrates resilience and adaptability, with steady growth in bookings and sales alongside ongoing product innovation.
