PRO-DEX, INC. ANNOUNCES FISCAL 2025 THIRD QUARTER

AND NINE-MONTH RESULTS

 

IRVINE, CA, May 1, 2025 - PRO-DEX, INC. (NasdaqCM: PDEX) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2025 third quarter ended March 31, 2025. The Company also filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 with the Securities and Exchange Commission today.

 

Quarter Ended March 31, 2025

 

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased $3.1 million, or 22%, to $17.4 million from $14.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to the shipment of $6.2 million of our largest customer’s next generation orthopedic handpiece, offset by a $4.4 million decrease in their legacy product, as well as an increase in repair revenue of $0.7 million similarly generated from our largest customer. As previously disclosed, we supported our largest customer’s limited market release quantities of their next generation end effector during the first quarter of this fiscal year and began production shipments in the second quarter of this fiscal year.

 

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased $1.8 million, or 45%, to $5.8 million from $4.0 million for the same period in fiscal 2024. While the gross profit increase is consistent with our increase in net sales, its percentage increase is comparatively higher than the percentage increase in net sales primarily due to favorable product mix.

 

Operating expenses (which include selling, general and administrative, and research and development expenses) for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, increased $369,000, or 21%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2024 due to increases in research and development, general and administrative and selling expenses, primarily related to increased personnel related expenses.

 

Our operating income for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, increased $1.4 million, or 65%, to $3.6 million compared to $2.2 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 quarter ended March 31, 2025, was $3.3 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, compared to $655,000, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the corresponding quarter in fiscal 2024. Our net income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, contains unrealized gains on our marketable equity investments of $550,000 while our net income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, contains unrealized losses on our marketable equity investments of $1.2 million. All of our investments are recorded at estimated fair value, and the valuation can be highly volatile. Additionally, during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 we sold some of our marketable equity investments and recorded a realized gain in the amount of $595,000. We had no sales of marketable equity investments during the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

 

 
 

 

Nine Months Ended March 31, 2025

 

Net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, increased $10.3 million, or 27%, to $49.1 million from $38.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2024 due primarily to $10.9 million in shipments of the newest generation handpiece we sell our largest customer.

 

Gross profit for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, increased $5.6 million, or 53%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2024. While the gross profit increase is consistent with our increase in net sales, its percentage increase is comparatively higher than the percentage increase in net sales primarily due to favorable product mix.

 

Operating expenses (which include selling, general and administrative, and research and development expenses) for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, increased 18% to $6.7 million from $5.6 million in the prior fiscal year’s corresponding period, due primarily to an overall increase in personnel costs and legal fees.

 

Our operating income for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, increased $4.5 million, or 94%, to $9.3 million compared to $4.8 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 nine months ended March 31, 2025, was $7.8 million, or $2.31 per diluted share, compared to $540,000, or $0.15 per diluted share, for the corresponding period in fiscal 2024. Our net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, contains unrealized gains on our marketable equity investments of $1.1 million and our net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2024, contains unrealized losses on our marketable equity investments of $3.8 million. All of our investments are recorded at estimated fair value, and the valuation can be highly volatile.
