Cost of sales. Cost of sales was $9.9 million, or 45.5% of Net sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $9.4 million, or 58.6 % of Net sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The increase in cost of sales for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024, principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth of $2.3 million within services product line and $5.5 million in commercial aftermarket sales while OEM and miliary net sales decreased by $2.0 million. Gross profit was $11.9 million, or 54.5% of Net sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $6.6 million, or 41.4% of Net sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The increase in gross margin principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth, a more favorable product mix within our commercial aftermarket product line, and a higher mix of commercial aftermarket revenue, which by nature has higher gross margins as compared to military and OEM businesses.

Previous report
In connection with June 2023 Honeywell Agreement, during the 18 month period following closing, which ended December 31, 2024, the Company received various components of PP&E. Rotables are parts that are not designed to be discarded after a certain period of use but rather are intended to be restored to a serviceable condition and reused. The Company had historically depreciated rotables PP&E on a straightline basis, over 5 years. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company updated its analysis of the economic lives of various owned rotable assets. As a result of this update, to better reflect the revised estimate of physical lives of rotable assets, the Company changed its useful lives estimate of rotable assets from 5 years to 10 years, effective as of January 1, 2025.

ASC 250, specifically ASC 250-10-45-17 states that, “changes in accounting estimates should not be accounted for by restating or retrospectively adjusting the amounts reported in prior period financial statements or by reporting pro forma amounts. Instead, a change in accounting estimate should be accounted for in the period of change and prospective periods.”
Previous report
Adhering to the guidance found in ASC 250, the Company recognized the change in depreciation expense of Rotable assets prospectively as of January 1, 2025. The change in accounting estimate decreased depreciation expense $0.4 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, and $0.7 million, or $0.04 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

Cost of sales. Cost of sales was $15.6 million, or 64.4% of Net sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $5.5 million, or 46.6% of Net sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in Cost of sales was primarily the result of a significant increase in overall sales volume. The Company’s overall gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was 35.6 % compared to 53.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in overall gross margin percentage for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 is primarily the result of unfavorable changes in product mix. The factors that have affected and will continue to affect the Company’s gross margins include depreciation resulting from recent product line acquisitions and the increased proportion of military sales in the Company’s sales mix.
Previous report
Selling, general, and administrative. SG&A expense increased by $1.1 million or 32.1%, to $4.2 million from $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Net sales. Net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 increased by $30.2 million, or 95.0%, to $62.0 million from $31.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024.

Service sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 increased $5.4 million, or 28.3%, compared to Services sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in Service sales primarily reflects increases in engineering development services of $2.0 million and an increase in customer service sales from the product lines acquired from Honeywell of $3.8 million, partially offset by lower legacy customer service revenue of $0.5 million.

Cost of sales. Cost of sales was $35.6 million, or 57.3% of Net sales, for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $14.4 million, or 45.4% of Net sales, for the nine months ended June 30, 2024.

The decrease in overall gross margin percentage for the nine months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2024, is primarily the result of unfavorable changes in product mix, increased depreciation and cost inefficiencies due to hiring and training of additional personnel and other integration costs associated with the September 2024 Honeywell Agreement. The factors that have affected and will continue to effect the Company’s gross margin include depreciation resulting from recent product line acquisitions and the increased proportion of military sales in the Company’s sales mix.

Previous wording
Following the acquisition of Honeywell’s military display generators and flight control computers business, Honeywell has continued to manufacture these products and maintain related inventory at its facilities under the September 2024 Honeywell Agreement. Revenue and costs from this production are attributed to and reported by the Company, but the Company relies on Honeywell for access to the operational and financial data needed to prepare its financial statements. The Company has limited ability to oversee the operations or verify the data received from Honeywell, making it difficult to predict revenues and gross margins. Over the coming months, the production of the military display generators and flight control computers business will cease at Honeywell facilities and transition to the Company’s facilities. During this transition process, production will be temporarily halted while the Company ramps up its production and inventory at its facilities. In anticipation of the transition, Honeywell is expected to accelerate its production of these products in the short term. This will likely lead to a spike in revenues in the short term followed by a temporary dip in revenues before revenues are normalized.

These costs are expensed as incurred and reported as R&D expenses. The Company intends to continue investing in the development of new products that complement current product offerings and to expense associated R&D costs as they are incurred.

The Company sells its products to agencies of the United States and foreign governments, aircraft operators, aircraft modification centers and OEMs. Customers have been and may continue to be affected by changes in economic conditions both in the United States and abroad. Such changes may cause customers to curtail or delay their spending on both new and existing aircraft. Factors that can impact general economic conditions and the level of spending by customers include, but are not limited to, general levels of consumer spending, increases in fuel and energy costs, conditions in the real estate and mortgage markets, labor and healthcare costs, access to credit, consumer confidence, inflation, public health crises and pandemics and other macroeconomic factors that affect spending behavior. Furthermore, spending by government agencies may be reduced in the future. If customers curtail or delay their spending or are forced to declare bankruptcy or liquidate their operations because of adverse economic conditions, the Company’s revenues and results of operations would be affected adversely. For example, in the 2020 fiscal year, certain of the Company’s customers temporarily suspended product deliveries as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and while these deliveries subsequently resumed, there is a possibility that the COVID-19 or similar pandemics will result in other suspensions, delays or order cancellations by the Company’s customers or suppliers.

Net sales of $24.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 comprised $11.6 million in organic Net sales and $12.5 million in Net sales related to the September 2024 Honeywell Agreement. The increase in Net sales was driven primarily by a $11.4 million, or 223.8%, increase in Product sales of which $11.5 million were derived from Honeywell military products. This quarter’s Net sales benefitted from an acceleration of the production and sales of Honeywell’s military product line in anticipation of Honeywell ceasing production at its own facilities and transitioning that production to the Company’s facilities. Net sales also benefited from an increase in commercial air transport sales of $0.4 million partially offset by $0.4 million of reduced sales in business aviation. Services sales for the three months ended June 30, 2025 increased $0.9 million, or 13.6%, compared to Services sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in Services sales primarily reflects increases in engineering development services of $0.9 million and an increase in customer service sales from the product lines acquired from Honeywell of $0.2 million, partially offset by a decrease in legacy customer service revenue of $0.1 million.

The increase in net sales principally reflects an increase of $5.5 million in commercial aftermarket product sales, partially offset by a decrease of $1.5 million in military product sales, primarily due to the transition of the F-16 production into the Exton facility and a decrease of $0.5 million in business aviation. Services sales for the three months ended December 31, 2025, increased $2.3 million, or 37.7%, compared to Services sales for the three months ended December 31, 2024, of $6.0 million. The increase in Services sales primarily reflects growth in service volumes related to the IRUs and radio product lines acquired in 2023 and 2024 of $2.6 million, partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in legacy customer service revenue.
