Techprecision Q2 2026 Earnings Call Transcript

Key Takeaways

• Positive Sentiment: Consolidated Q2 revenue rose 2% to $9.1 million and consolidated gross profit increased by $1.4 million, producing a 16-percentage-point improvement in gross margin and net income of $0.8 million ($0.08 per share).
• Positive Sentiment: Management cites a $48 million backlog (to be delivered over 1–3 years) and ongoing execution of over $21 million in fully funded U.S. Navy grants, which they expect to support future revenue and margin expansion.
• Negative Sentiment: The Statco subsidiary remains loss-making (Q2 operating loss of $0.5 million) and faces continuing headwinds from legacy underpriced one‑off contracts and first‑article production issues that management is actively working to resolve.
• Negative Sentiment: Liquidity is tight—cash of $220,000 and $7.3 million of debt at quarter end—with higher interest costs from increased revolver usage, prompting management to emphasize aggressive daily cash management and risk mitigation.

[Brett Maas, Head of Investor Relations at Hayden IR]

With that out of the way, I'd like to turn the call over to Alex Shen, Chief Executive Officer, to provide opening remarks. Alex, please continue.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Thank you, Brett. Good afternoon to everyone, and thank you for joining us. Please excuse my raspy voice; a little bit of a cold here. Fiscal 2026 Q2 consolidated revenue was $9.1 million, or 2% higher when compared to $8.9 million in the fiscal year 2025 Q2. Consolidated gross profit totaled $2.5 million, or $1.4 million higher when compared to the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. At both Raynor and Statco segments, favorable customer mix has resulted in improved margins. Fiscal year 2026 Q2 Raynor revenue was $4.4 million, with operating profit of $1.6 million. Q2 Statco revenue was $4.8 million, with operating loss of $0.5 million compared to the same period a year ago. Statco had an $873,000 improvement in operating income.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

For Q2, operating income was $0.9 million, and favorable customer mix enabled three drivers: one, better throughput at Statco, resulting in higher revenue; two, lower provision for losses from specific first article costs; and three, lower provision for losses from one-time one-off contracts. We remain highly focused on aggressive daily cash management, a critical piece of risk mitigation. We continue to manage and control expenses, capital expenditures, customer advances, progress billings, and final invoicing at shipment. Our tactical execution focus and success enables us to continuously re-secure strategic customer confidence at both segments. At our Raynor segment, sustained delivery and installation of new equipment continues as we specifically execute the $21 million plus of completely funded grant money from our U.S. Navy-related customers. Customer confidence remains high. At both Statco and Raynor, our customers have expressed their strong confidence as we continue to maintain on-time delivery of quality components.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

This delivery performance is leading both Statco and Raynor to new quoting opportunities in air defense and submarine defense sectors with the same customers that already know and trust our capabilities. Both subsidiaries are continuing to experience meaningful new capture of business awards from these same customers, adding to our already strong $48 million backlog. We expect to deliver this $48 million backlog over the course of the next one to three fiscal years with gross margin expansion. Now, I'd like to turn the call over to our Chief Financial Officer, Phil Podgorski, to continue with the review of our Q2 and six months ended fiscal year 2026 results. Phil.

[Phil Podgorski, CFO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Thank you, Alex. As Alex just mentioned, for our fiscal 2026 Q2, consolidated revenue increased by 2% to $9.1 million, compared to $8.9 million in the same period a year ago, as we continue to focus on building our strong recurring revenue customer base. Consolidated cost of revenue decreased by 16%, or $1.3 million, as throughput and customer mix improved at both segments. Consolidated gross profit increased by $1.4 million in Q2 fiscal 2026 to $2.5 million, resulting in double-digit year-over-year consolidated gross margin improvement of 16 percentage points. Consolidated SG&A increased slightly by 1% to $1.5 million in the fiscal 2026 Q2 due to increased general office expenses, but partially offset by decrease in outside advisory and consulting costs. Fiscal 2026 Q2 interest was higher due primarily to interest cost rates related to higher borrowing under the revolving loan.

[Phil Podgorski, CFO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Net income was $0.8 million for the quarter, or $0.08 per share on a basic and fully diluted basis. For the six months ended September 30, 2025, consolidated revenue was $16.5 million, or 3% lower when compared to the same period a year ago. Consolidated cost of revenue was $13 million, or $2.7 million lower than the same period a year ago, again due to favorable customer mix and productivity gains at both Raynor and Statco. As noted, favorable customer mix and productivity gains increased gross profit by $2.2 million, or 14 percentage points year-over-year. SG&A decreased by 2% as lower outside advisory and consulting costs more than offset the increase in general office costs. As a result, operating income increased by 126% to $0.5 million.

[Phil Podgorski, CFO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Interest cost increased by 3% again on higher borrowings under our revolving loan, resulting in net income of $0.2 million, or 2 cents per share on a basic and fully diluted basis. Moving on to our financial position, we continue to actively manage our cash flow, as Alex had mentioned. Net cash provided by operating and investing activities totaled $0.2 million for the first six months in fiscal 2026. Net cash used in financing activities totaled $0.2 million, primarily to pay down principal under our revolver and term loans. Our debt was $7.3 million on September 30, 2025, compared to $7.4 million on March 31, 2025. Our cash balance on September 30, 2025, was $220,000, compared to $195,000 on March 31, 2025. Now, let's take a little deeper dive into the segments for fiscal 2026 Q2. For Raynor, Q2 revenue was down year-over-year by $0.4 million.

[Phil Podgorski, CFO at TechPrecision Corporation]

However, overall strong margin growth was evident across all projects, resulting in improved margin drop-through of 7 percentage points and contributing $2.2 million in gross profit for the quarter. Statco Q2 fiscal 2026 revenue increased by $0.6 million, compared to the same period last year, as we continue to focus on repeat work. Statco experienced Q2 year-over-year gross profit margin improvement of 9 percentage points, or $800,000. The Statco improved gross profit versus prior year is primarily the result of improved contract pricing, customer mix, and improved production efficiencies. While this is an improvement, the company continues to face headwind on legacy contracts and underpriced one-time contracts. As Alex mentioned, we continue to actively work with our customers on these contracts towards recovery and new pricing. With that, I'll turn the call back over to Alex.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

For those on the call who may not be very familiar with our company, TechPrecision is a custom manufacturer of precision large-scale fabricated components and precision large-scale machined metal components. The components that we manufacture are customer designed. We sell to customers in two main industry sectors: defense and precision industrial markets, predominantly defense. We do most of our work in industries that are highly sensitive to confidentiality, which preclude us from speaking publicly about many things that a company not operating in TechPrecision's specific environment might discuss. Please understand there are real limits as to what I can discuss, and sometimes those limits do change. TechPrecision is proud and honored to serve the U.S. defense industry, specifically naval submarine manufacturing through both our Raynor and Statco subsidiaries, and military aircraft manufacturing through our Statco subsidiary. We aim to secure and maintain enduring partnerships with our customers.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Overall, at both the Raynor and the Statco subsidiaries, we continue to see meaningful opportunities in our defense sector, as evidenced by the continued strength of our backlog. We are encouraged by the prospects for growing our revenue and increasing profitability in future quarters. In summary, we had a profitable consolidated quarter. We are showing progress and have more work to do with our Statco subsidiary to get it into the black. We filed on time, and we are targeting to build and sustain this trend. We want to build this trend. Operator, please open the line for Q&A.

[Operator]

A confirmation tone will indicate your line is in the question queue, and you may press Star 2 if you would like to remove your question from the queue. For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the Star keys. One moment, please, while we poll for questions. Thank you. We have a question from Ross Taylor with ARS Investments. Your line is live.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Thank you. First, I didn't think I'd ever live to see the day you guys actually reported inside the time horizon, so congratulations. Really fantastic turnaround on that.

[Phil Podgorski, CFO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Thank you.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Thank you.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

What percentage of your Statco business is still needing to be reworked to become profitable, or is one-off contracts that you need to run out to become profitable overall?

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

I don't know about the percentage, but I think the let me parse that question and split it into three chunks. As far as the one-offs, I think those will need to continue. As far as the, I say they continue. They will need to continue, but the ones that are experiencing losses and loss reserves have been dealt with very vigorously in the last quarter that we're reporting on. That is really good. As far as another piece of it that was causing loss reserves was basically our first article activity. That does not mean just the first unit. It means the whole first article activity for repeating part numbers. It might be the first one, the second one, and the third one, or it might be the first 10. It depends on the situation.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

First article activity, until we can get to a stable, repeatable, sustainable cadence and expectation of manufacturing throughput, those have also been rather vigorously dealt with in the quarter we are reporting on. How much is left? It will be imperative to continue to capture new business with new part numbers. So the first article activity needs to be watched carefully. The risks need to be mitigated. The customer collaboration, we will increase that to the point where we deal with the first article loss reserves. We want to deal with them more effectively. I do not know that we can deal with them as effectively as we did in the reporting quarter that we are reporting on now, but certainly, we have set ourselves a target. We are not going to keep missing these targets.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

We're going to work towards the target, hit the target, and I'm here to build a trend together with Phil Podgorski.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Okay. You said there are three aspects. You have the one-offs, and basically, those would be the run-through or your future one-off contracts we should expect to be able to be profitable. You have the first articles, which obviously, first articles always tend to carry, they have issues or risks with them, so they tend to carry lower margins, but you believe. Is the problem there more, did you see it more as a, was it a design issue? Was it the customer changing the designs? Was it underbidding? What did you sense the issue was in those first articles?

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

As I pulled out my playbook of analyses and tried to get these things down to what's the one big thing, it turns out that because we are really concentrating on rather complex, highly complex items and critical items that are critical to the war fighters, it's really dependent on the situation, Ross. I'm not trying to be funny about this. I'm just trying to tell you the truth. It's a case-by-case basis on each part that we're attempting to build. It's not one thing. It's a number of one things. When you've got a lot of people touching it, and when you have a lot of different people on the customer side also touching it, the number of touches increases the chances of something not going quite right on the handoff back and forth. That certainly happens quite a lot more when it's first article time.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Neither side has been working with each other on this particular part number before. Even if we build a second one, it's not going to repeat the same way that we did the first one. It's much more complicated than to try to generalize and tell you that I've identified the main culprit or the top three culprits. They tend to take turns. We need a little bit more experience with these things to understand how to deal with them in aggregate. The execution in detail, the nuts and bolts, are really important for us to grasp each detail. It helps me quite a bit when I'm on site and dealing with these things in person as well as through my subordinates.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Is this an issue both at Raynor and Statco, or is it more concentrated at Statco?

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

I think the first article problems, so characterizing Raynor being mostly NAVSE, Electric Boat, Newport News, Virginia-class submarine, and Columbia-class submarine specification-driven. The overall and overreaching specification sets are Virginia-class and Columbia-class. At Statco, it's a little bit more than one set of specifications or two sets of specifications. The idea is to focus ourselves and make sure we go back to the same customers because we've already proven ourselves at both Raynor and Statco to these same customers that we know their specifications, we know how to manufacture, and really sustain our on-time delivery delivering quality parts to their specifications. As we continue that focus, that's going to lead us towards full recovery in the black at Statco consistently. Am I making sense?

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Yes, you are. Having spent some time in the defense industry, some of this stuff actually is things I remember and am familiar with. If the South Koreans turn the Philadelphia shipyard into a submarine manufacturing facility initially for their boats, which are somewhat different than our boats, but there would be a probably likely overlap in many systems and components, is that an opportunity for you, and is it something that you would have the ability to service out of your current industrial base?

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

I'd love to be able to answer that question, and it falls into the area where I can't speak. Can you rephrase or something?

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Do you see the shifting of the former Philadelphia Naval shipyard to a submarine manufacturer to be an economic opportunity for you?

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

We will look at every single opportunity, yes.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

I would assume that there are things that go into submarines, generally Western-designed submarines, that you produce that in this country you would produce in, since what, 90% or so of your business is effectively you are the sole source. I would assume that a lot of that stuff would still end up in allies' boats as well as U.S. boats.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

You've got great assumptions, Ross.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Yeah, thank you.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

I don't mean that in a funny way. I am aligned with your assumption and that way of thinking.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

I'm not even out of a helicopter this time. Can you walk through, Phil? Can you walk through how you guys handle the grants that you've gotten from the federal government and the characteristics of those grants and what restrictions, if any, exist with them?

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Maybe we can answer this jointly. The restrictions as far as what parts we may use the equipment for, the Navy parts that they're meant for have priority. If there are none, then we do have the ability to use these assets for non-Navy parts that weren't designated.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Or other Navy parts?

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Or anybody's parts.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Anyone's part. How does it sit on the balance sheet?

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

That's a Phil question.

[Phil Podgorski, CFO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Certainly, when we receive the cash, we certainly have an obligation to protect that. We do segregate. We do have liabilities also that are established upon receipt of that cash, whether it is to the supplier or to a vendor that we are working with to secure that equipment. Likewise, as we onboard those assets onto our balance sheet, we do have a depending on what the agreement is with our customer, I mean, our supplier, we then at that stage will create an offsetting liability and depreciate it over the useful life of that equipment. We have assets and liabilities set up to handle each unique agreement that we have.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Okay. Are any of the liabilities basically future performance or future services delivered, that they give you this money and you are required to provide them something, or you get paid for everything you build with this new equipment?

[Phil Podgorski, CFO at TechPrecision Corporation]

We get paid for everything that we build with this equipment. There is a, I can tell you on one contract, for example, sorry, one funding, that we do have a 10-year agreement with that whereby we need to continue to perform for that period of time.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Okay. One last one for me is you talked about the ability to garner new business. You're in an industry where a number of suppliers have struggled to either meet quality or timing and things of this nature. What kind of new business have you seen? Are you seeing, you think of things on new part by part number outside of TPCS? A lot of us think of it as programs. Are you involved in any new programs, particularly out of the Raynor operation?

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

We are in the giant program mix of Virginia-class and Columbia-class submarines. There are programs within those two classes of submarines that we are on.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Is there an opportunity for you in the larger undersea unmanned vehicles?

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Those are different sets of specifications.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

At this point, no. If they were to develop things such as there's talk that they want to build something that sits on the bottom of the Taiwan Straits, and when the Chinese decide to invade, that they automatically launch missiles, I think of you guys as being involved in that aspect of U.S. submarines. Would that be an opportunity for you guys if we were to go that direction?

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

I think at this point, we have a lot of opportunity with the same customers and the same design shipyard. If our customers lead us to that type of opportunity, we're absolutely ready to take a look.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Okay. Cool. Cool. I've got.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

We just.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Yeah. Go ahead.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

We just need to make sure that whatever first article activity we choose, it's going to be something that we can mitigate the risk and stay resilient with good backup plans and good planning for advanced countermeasures to counteract the learning that we tend to do as a community on new first article parts and new first article programs.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Okay. It would just strike me as it would seem that with things like longitude doors and things that there might be a technological capability overlap that as we develop more war fighting unmanned underwater vessels, that your skill set would become more in demand. I'll pass it to others. I've taken up a fair amount of people's time. Thank you.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Thank you.

[Phil Podgorski, CFO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Thank you, Ross.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Congratulations. Congratulations for getting back on time. One thing I would love to see though, I'm going to leave it with, insiders actually buying stock instead of selling stock would be a nice change of pace.

[Phil Podgorski, CFO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Duly noted. Thank you.

[Ross Taylor, Analyst at ARS Investments]

Thank you. Take care.

[Operator]

Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, we have no further questions in the queue at this time, so this will conclude our question and answer session. I would now like to turn the call back over to management for any closing remarks they may have.

[Alex Shen, CEO at TechPrecision Corporation]

Thank you, everyone. Have a great day.

[Operator]

Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, this does conclude today's call. You may disconnect your lines at this time, and we thank you for your participation.
