Danny Schoening, CEO of Optex Systems Holdings, Inc., commented, "We are proud to announce another record-breaking quarter for revenue, a testament to our unwavering commitment to excellence, reliability, and customer support. This milestone reflects not only our strong operational performance but also the momentum we are building across the business.
"In addition to surpassing previous revenue records, we are excited to report several significant new program wins that expand our footprint in both domestic and international markets. These new awards are the result of our consistent delivery of high-quality products and the trust we have earned as a dependable defense manufacturing partner.
"Our factory performance continues to highlight the strength of our team and the efficiency of our processes. As we celebrate this achievement, we remain focused on sustaining this growth trajectory, investing in innovation, and delivering superior value to our customers and shareholders.
"We thank our employees, customers, and investors for their ongoing support in making this success possible."
Backlog as of June 29, 2025 was $38.3 million, compared to a backlog of $45.6 million as of June 30, 2024, representing a decrease of $7.3 million, or 16.0% from the prior year June period. Subsequent to the period ended June 29, 2025, the Company announced several new awards including a $2.8 million order for the XM30 program, a $10.2 million five-year requirement-type contract award for optical sighting systems, and a $1.6 million order for laser filters, bringing our total backlog to $45.0 million as of August 5, 2025.
For the three months ended June 29, 2025, our total revenue increased by $2.1 million, or 22.6%, compared to the prior year period. For the nine months ended June 29, 2025, our total revenue increased by $5.5 million, or 22.3%, compared to the prior year period. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by higher periscope production levels at the Optex Richardson segment, combined with increased customer demand across both the Optex Richardson and the Applied Optics operating segments.
Consolidated gross profit for the three months ended June 29, 2025 increased by $0.3 million, or 10.0%, compared to the prior year period. Consolidated gross profit for the nine months ended June 29, 2025 increased by $1.5 million, or 21.6%, compared to the prior year period. The increase in the most recent three and nine-month period gross profit was primarily attributable to increased revenue and changes in product mix.
Our operating income for the three months ended June 29, 2025 increased by $0.3 million, or 18.3%, compared to the prior year period. Our operating income for the nine months ended June 29, 2025 increased by $1.5 million, or 43.8%, compared to the prior year period. The increase in operating income was primarily driven by higher revenue and gross profit.
As of June 29, 2025, Optex Systems Holdings had working capital of $19.4 million, as compared to $15.1 million as of September 29, 2024. During the nine months ended June 29, 2025, we generated operating cash of $5.4 million, primarily driven by increased net income, reductions in inventory and increased accounts payable. During the nine months ended June 29, 2025, we paid $1.0 million against the credit facility and purchased capital assets of $0.5 million.
At June 29, 2025, the Company had approximately $4.9 million in cash and no draws against its revolving credit line. As of June 29, 2025, our outstanding accounts receivable balance was $4.1 million to be collected during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025.
Our key performance measures for the three and nine months ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024 are summarized below.
The table below summarizes our three- and nine-month operating results for the periods ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024, in terms of both the GAAP net income measure and the non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA measure. We believe that including both measures allows the reader better to evaluate our overall performance.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or a substitute for performance measures calculated under GAAP. This non-GAAP measure excludes certain cash expenses that we are obligated to make. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do or may not calculate it at all, which limits the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA as a comparative measure.
Our net income increased by $0.2 million to $1.5 million for the three months ended June 29, 2025, as compared to net income of $1.3 million for the prior year period. Our adjusted EBITDA increased by $0.3 million to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 29, 2025, as compared to adjusted EBITDA of $1.8 million for the prior year period.
Our net income increased by $1.3 million to $4.1 million for the nine months ended June 29, 2025, as compared to net income of $2.8 million for the prior year period. Our adjusted EBITDA increased by $1.5 million to $5.7 million for the nine months ended June 29, 2025, as compared to adjusted EBITDA of $4.2 million for the prior year period.
The increase in net income and adjusted EBITDA for the most recent three and nine-month periods compared to the prior year periods is primarily driven by increased revenue and gross profit.
We currently do not anticipate any significant material risks as a result of the recent tariff uncertainties or China's stranglehold on rare earths. Our defense products are primarily sourced domestically, but those which are imported are generally not subject to tariff or duties. We produce some commercial optical assemblies with selective components sourced from Taiwan; however, our current customer backlog is covered with existing material in inventory. We anticipate any future orders for these commercial products will be subject to revised pricing inclusive of any potential tariff impact.
Highlights of the Consolidated and Segment Results of Operations have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. These financial highlights do not include all information and disclosures required in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes and should be read in conjunction with our Quarterly Report on Form 10Q for the three and nine months ended June 29, 2025 filed with the SEC on August 12, 2025.

Cathie Wood Pours Millions Into Archer Aviation and Pony AI Push
Aug 13 - Cathie Wood's ARK funds made headlines again on Tuesday with a trio of bold moves in aviation and autonomy. ARK bought roughly $3.15 million of Archer Aviation (NYSE:ACHR) stock and added about $13.37 million of Pony AI (NASDAQ:PONY), signaling renewed appetite for eVTOL and robotaxi plays. At the same time ARK sold 282,737 shares of Kratos Defense (NASDAQ:KTOS), a disposal that totaled about $18.49 million as Wood rebalances the portfolio. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 2 Warning Sign with ACHR. The trades show ARK doubling down on next-gen mobility while trimming some defense exposure after KTOS's recent rally. Other smaller purchases included stakes in Caris Life Sciences (NASDAQ:CAI), Illumina (NASDAQ:ILMN) and Exact Sciences (NASDAQ:EXAS), alongside buys in mega-caps such as Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) and Deere (DE). ARK's move could push investor interest back into high-growth, speculative mobility names, but it also underscores the fund's active, high-conviction approach to thematic investing.

US stocks rally to records on hopes for cuts to interest rates
NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. stock market rallied to records on Tuesday after data suggested inflation across the country was a touch better last month than economists expected. The S&P 500 rose 1.1% to top its all-time high set two weeks ago. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 483 points, or 1.1%, and the Nasdaq composite jumped 1.4% to set its own record. Stocks got a lift from hopes that the better-than-expected inflation report will give the Federal Reserve leeway to cut interest rates at its next meeting in September. Lower rates would give a boost to investment prices and to the economy by making it cheaper for U.S. households and businesses to borrow to buy houses, cars or equipment. President Donald Trump has angrily been calling for cuts to help the economy, often insulting the Fed's chair personally while doing so. But the Fed has been hesitant because of the possibility that Trump's tariffs could make inflation much worse. Lowering rates would give inflation more fuel, potentially adding oxygen to a growing fire. That's why Fed officials have said they wanted to see more data come in about inflation before moving. Tuesday's report said U.S. consumers paid prices for groceries, gasoline and other costs of living that were overall 2.7% higher in July than a year earlier. That's the same inflation rate as June's, and it was below the 2.8% that economists expected. The report pushed traders on Wall Street to increase bets that the Fed will cut interest rates for the first time this year in September. They're betting on a 94% chance of that, up from nearly 86% a day earlier, according to data from CME Group. The Fed will receive one more report on inflation, as well as one more on the U.S. job market, before its next meeting, which ends Sept. 17. The most recent jobs report was a stunner, coming in much weaker than economists expected. Some economists warn that more twists and turns in upcoming data could make the Fed's upcoming decisions not so easy. Its twin goals are to get inflation to 2% while keeping the job market healthy. Helping one with interest rates, though, often means hurting the other. Even Tuesday's better-than-expected inflation report had some discouraging undertones. An underlying measure of inflation, which economists say does a better job of predicting where inflation may be heading, hit its highest point since early this year, noted Gary Schlossberg, market strategist at Wells Fargo Investment Institute. That helped cause some up-and-down swings for Treasury yields in the bond market. 'Eventually, tariffs can show up in varying degrees in consumer prices, but these one-off price increases don't happen all at once,' said Brian Jacobsen, chief economist at Annex Wealth Management. 'That will confound the Fed and economic commentators for months to come.' Other central banks around the world have been lowering interest rates, and Australia's on Tuesday cut for the third time this year. On Wall Street, Intel's stock rose 5.6% after Trump said its CEO has an 'amazing story,' less than a week after he had demanded Lip-Bu Tan's resignation. Circle Internet Group, the company behind the popular USDC cryptocurrency that tracks the U.S. dollar, climbed 1.3% despite reporting a larger loss for the latest quarter than analysts expected. It said its total revenue and reserve income grew 53% in its first quarter as a publicly traded company, which topped forecasts. On the losing side of Wall Street was Celanese, which sank 13.1% even though the chemical company delivered a better profit than expected. It said that customers in most of its markets continue to be challenged, and CEO Scott Richardson said that 'the demand environment does not seem to be improving.' Cardinal Health dropped 7.2% despite likewise reporting a stronger profit for the latest quarter than analysts expected. Its revenue fell short of forecasts, and analysts said the market's expectations were particularly high for the company after its stock had already soared 33.3% for the year coming into the day. Critics say the broad U.S. stock market is looking expensive after its surge from a bottom in April. That's putting pressure on companies to deliver continued growth in profit. All told, the S&P 500 rose 72.31 points to 6,445.76. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 483.52 to 44,458.61, and the Nasdaq composite jumped 296.50 to 21,681.90. In stock markets abroad, indexes edged up in China after Trump signed an executive order late Monday that delayed hefty tariffs on the world's second-largest economy by 90 days. The move was widely expected, and the hope is that it will clear the way for a possible deal to avert a dangerous trade war between the United States and China. Japan's Nikkei 225 jumped 2.1%, and South Korea's Kospi fell 0.5% for two of the world's bigger moves. In the bond market, the yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 4.28% from 4.27% late Monday. The yield on the two-year Treasury, which more closely tracks expectations for the Fed, fell to 3.73% from 3.76%. ___ AP Business Writers Yuri Kageyama and Matt Ott contributed.
