Arizona Tribune - Pro-Dex, Inc. Announces Fiscal 2026 Second Quarter and Six-Month Results

Quarter Ended December 31, 2025

Net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2025, increased $1.9 million, or 11%, to $18.7 million from $16.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to an increase in shipments in the amount of $7.3 million of our largest customer's next generation orthopedic handpiece offset by a decrease of $4.8 million of their legacy handpiece as well as a decrease in repair revenue of $1.7 million similarly generated from our largest customer. We also shipped $1.3 million more of our CMF drivers and batteries to various distributors during the three months ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2025, increased $671,000, or 13%, to $5.7 million from $5.1 million for the same period in fiscal 2025. Gross margin increased by 1 percentage point to 31% for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to 30% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The improvement in gross margin is primarily due to increased sales and favorable product mix.

Operating expenses (which include selling, general and administrative, and research and development expenses) for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, increased $104,000, or 4%, to $2.5 million compared to $2.4 million in the prior fiscal year's corresponding quarter, reflecting increases in selling, general and administrative expenses mostly due to higher personnel related expenses offset by lower research and development expenditures.

Operating income for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, increased $567,000, or 21%, to $3.3 million compared to $2.7 million for the prior fiscal year's corresponding quarter. The increase is attributable to higher sales and improved gross margins.

Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2025, increased $5.5 million, or 17%, to $37.2 million from $31.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, due primarily to $11.9 million in shipments of the newest generation handpiece we sell our largest customer offset by a decrease of $5.0 million of their legacy handpiece and $3.0 million in decreased repair revenue from their legacy handpiece. We also shipped $1.9 million more of our CMF drivers and batteries to various distributors during the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 2025,increased $889,000, or 9%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2025 due to increased sales. Our gross margin decreased by 2 percentage points to 30% for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to 32% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year mostly as a result of a less favorable product mix.

Operating expenses (which include selling, general and administrative, and research and development expenses) for the six months ended December 31, 2025, increased $226,000, or 5%, to $4.7 million compared to $4.5 million in the prior fiscal year's corresponding period. The increase is related to increased selling, general and administrative expenses mostly due to higher personnel-related expenses offset by a decrease in research and development costs.

Operating income for six months ended December 31, 2025, increased $663,000, or 12%, to $6.4 million compared to $5.7 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in operating income is attributable to higher sales and gross profit offset by the higher operating expenses described above.

Net income for the six months ended December 31, 2025, was $6.9 million or $2.07 per diluted share, compared to net income of $4.5 million or $1.33 per diluted share for the six months ended December 31, 2024. Our net income for the six months ended December 31, 2025, contains a $6.8 million realized gain offset by the reversal of $3.2 million in unrealized gains recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 related to our investment in Monogram Technologies, Inc. which was acquired by Zimmer Biomet Holdings, Inc. during our second fiscal quarter.
