First Quarter 2025 Financial Results Summary

Revenue for the first quarter of 2025 was $8.4 million, an increase of 12.5% compared with $7.5 million in the first quarter of 2024.  First quarter gross profit was $5.7 million, or 67.2% of revenue, compared with $4.5 million, or 59.6% of revenue, in the year ago quarter. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to a well-balanced product mix, component and design cost optimization and efficient cost control.

Operating expenses were $4.6 million, an increase of 2% compared to the prior year's first quarter operating expenses of $4.5 million. The increase in operating expenses is primarily attributable to targeting marketing and selling spend in core growth verticals, positively offset by R&D investment optimization.

Operating income for the first quarter of 2025 was $1.0 million compared to an operating loss of $73,000 in the year-ago period. The improvement is primarily attributable to increased revenue and gross margin expansion.

Financial income was $269,000 compared to $54,000 in the first quarter last year.

Net income in the first quarter of 2025 was $1.0 million, or $0.04 per share compared to a loss of ($0.7) million, or ($0.03) per share, in the first quarter of last year.
