Added paragraphs (2)
Current report
Accounts receivable increased $3,136,772 during the first quarter of fiscal 2027 primarily due to increased sales and timing of customer payments. Inventories decreased $409,594 primarily due to increased sales. Prepaid expenses and other assets decreased $1,174,494 as the accrual for fiscal 2027 federal and state taxes offset prior-year’s estimated taxes overpayment.
Current report
Cash provided by investing activities during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, consisted $5,000,000 in proceeds from maturities of marketable securities, partially offset by $4,230,211 of marketable securities purchases and $56,833 of fixed asset purchases. We currently expect fixed asset purchases in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027, to be significantly less than for the year ended March 31, 2026 with the completion of our expansion in the past fiscal year.
Removed paragraphs (15)
Previous report
Gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 was 79% of revenue compared to 84% the prior-year quarter. The decrease in gross margin percentage was due to a less profitable product mix and increased distributor sales for the quarter. Distributor sales typically have lower gross margin than direct sales.
Previous report
Our effective tax rate, which is the provision for income taxes as a percentage of income before taxes, increased to 20% for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 from 15% for the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the unfavorable non-cash impact of tax law changes on certain tax deductions this fiscal year.
Previous report
We currently expect a full-year tax rate of 16% to 17% for fiscal 2026. This expectation includes the unfavorable impact of tax law changes and the favorable impact of $700,000 to $1,000,000 in anticipated advanced manufacturing investment tax credits.
Previous report
Nine months ended December 31, 2025, compared to nine months ended December 31, 2024
Previous report
Total revenue for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 increased 0.4% compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was due to a 0.8% increase in product sales, partially offset by an 8% decrease in contract research and development revenue. The decrease in contract research and development revenue was primarily due to the timing of revenue recognition and fewer research and development contracts for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the prior-year period.
Previous report
Gross margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 was 79% of revenue, compared to 85% for the first nine months of fiscal 2025. The decrease in gross margin percentage was due to a less profitable product mix and increased distributor sales for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the prior-year period. Distributor sales typically have lower gross margin than direct sales.
Previous report
Total expenses decreased by 13% for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2025, due to an 8% decrease in research and development expense and a 22% decrease in selling, general, and administrative expense. The decrease in research and development expense was due to the completion of some of our wafer-level chip scale packaging activities and reassignment of some research and development resources to manufacturing. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses was primarily due to the timing of marketing activities, and reassignment of some selling, general and administrative resources to manufacturing and new product development.
Previous report
Our effective tax rate increased to 19% for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 compared to 16% for the first nine months of fiscal 2025. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the non-cash impact of tax law changes on certain tax deductions this fiscal year.
Previous report
Net income for first nine months of fiscal 2026 decreased 8% from the prior-year period to $10.3 million, or $2.12 per diluted share. The decrease was primarily due to decreased gross margin, decreased other income, and an increase in our effective tax rate, partially offset by decreased expenses.
Previous report
Non-cash operating lease expenses increased by $105,896 primarily due to our receipt of a $100,000 leasehold improvement allowance.
Previous report
Accounts receivable decreased by $1,106,223 during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 primarily due to the timing of customer payments.
Previous report
Inventories decreased by $177,285 due to increased product sales.
Previous report
Prepaid expenses and other assets increased by $323,301 primarily due to increased accrued bond interest and a decrease in federal and state taxes due. The decrease in taxes due was because we deducted previously unamortized research and development expenses in the quarter ended December 31, 2025 as permitted under the Federal budget reconciliation bill enacted July 4, 2025. We expect accelerated deductions of previously unamortized research and development expenses to reduce our cash taxes for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 by approximately $1,100,000.
Previous report
Accrued payroll and other current liabilities decreased by $366,459 primarily due to the payment of federal and state taxes balance due as of March 31, 2025 and decreased accrual for performance-based compensation.
Previous report

Fixed asset purchases were primarily production equipment.
