ORLANDO, Fla., May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- M-tron Industries, Inc. (NYSE:MPTI) ("Mtron" or the "Company"), a designer and manufacturer of highly-engineered electronic components used to control the frequency or timing of signals in electronic circuits, announced its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

"Mtron delivered another quarter of revenue growth driven by healthy demand across our existing portfolio and the successful introduction of new products," said Cameron Pforr, Mtron Interim Chief Executive Officer. "Our backlog increased significantly during the period and we remain focused on delivering innovative products that strengthen our market position and create sustained value for our stockholders."

"We also successfully completed the distribution of the previously announced dividend of warrants on April 25, 2025, reflecting our ongoing commitment to enhancing stockholder value and providing opportunities for long-term participation in Mtron's future growth," continued Mr. Pforr.

Results from Operations

Revenue was $12.7 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared with $11.2 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to strong defense product shipments.

Gross margin was 42.5% in the first quarter of 2025 compared with 42.7% in the first quarter of 2024. The decrease is primarily due to higher revenues partially offset by the initial higher manufacturing costs associated with the initial production runs of several new products. In addition, we saw the initial impact this quarter of newly initiated federal tariffs on imports of foreign sourced materials and partially finished goods.

Net income was $1.6 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2025 compared with $1.5 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in revenues discussed above was partially offset by higher manufacturing cost of sales consistent with the growth in revenues and the introduction of new products as well as higher engineering, selling and administrative expenses related to higher research and development costs, higher sales commissions from an increase in revenues, and an increase in corporate expenses consistent with the overall growth in the business.

Adjusted EBITDA was $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared with $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher income before income taxes, depreciation, and stock-based compensation partially offset by higher interest income.

Backlog

Backlog was $55.5 million as of March 31, 2025 compared to $47.2 million as of December 31, 2024 and $46.1 million as of March 31, 2024. The increase in backlog reflects several large orders received during the quarter and the continued broad demand for our products.

Impact of Tariffs

In March 2025, Mtron saw the initial impact of the recently announced federal tariffs on the import of goods and materials from outside the United States. Mtron, while a United States-based manufacturer with a great degree of vertical integration, does import some materials from Japan, China, and South Korea and performs some finishing work at our facility in Noida, India. It is difficult to predict the long-term impact of this trade policy on our financial performance. We are working with many of our defense customers on enacting parts of the Federal Acquisition Regulation ("FAR"), which potentially exempt materials received for defense production from entry tariffs. In addition, we continue as always to analyze our supply chain in order to make sure we have redundancy of suppliers and can source from reliable suppliers at the best price possible. To date, we have seen no impact from tariffs on demand for our products.
