NobleCon20. Graham CFO Chris Thome and Vice President Matt Malone presented at NobleCon20. Highlights included the growth potential in U.S. Navy contracts, revenue diversification in the Space Segment, and M&A strategy. A rebroadcast is available at https://www.channelchek.com/videos/graham-corporation-noblecon20-replay.

Potential in U.S. Navy. The Navy’s Ford Class Carrier and Virginia and Columbia Class Submarines represent $1.2 to $1.4 billion in revenue potential based on planned projects. These project build timelines are expected to be completed as early as 2035 to as late as 2058, providing visibility and recurring revenue. With investments from defense customers to expand capacity and 80% of its defense revenue sole sourced, we believe Graham is uniquely positioned to expand its relationship with the Navy and other defense customers.

1Q25 Results. The improved top and bottom lines reflect Graham’s successful operating strategy, in our view. The first quarter can be characterized by solid growth, consistent improvement, and strengthened profitability. We also would note the expansion of Graham’s defense business has reduced the Company’s economic sensitivity.

New Orders. Graham’s Barber-Nichols segment reported the receipt of three new awards, totaling in excess of $65 million. An extension of work for the MK48 Mod 7 Heavyweight torpedo program, received in the first quarter; a new program for the Columbia-class submarine; and a contract to provide cryogenic recirculation pumps for space vehicles. We believe these awards demonstrate the Company’s capabilities to successfully compete in its key markets.

Strong Results. Net sales for the quarter were $50.0 million, above the prior year’s $47.6 million and in-line with our estimate of $50.0 million. Higher margin defense sales helped increase revenue as well as gross margin, as gross margin increased to 24.8% from 23.1% last year and above our forecast of 22.0%. Net income totaled $3.0 million, or $0.27/sh, compared to $2.6 million or $0.25/sh last year. We estimated net income of $1.6 million or $0.15/sh.

New Facility. In an effort to support the U.S. Navy’s shipbuilding schedule, the Company received a $13.5 million investment during fiscal 2024 to expand its Batavia, N.Y. production capabilities. The Company is expecting to break ground on the facility in August 2024. We believe the expansion of the facility can facilitate the needs of the U.S. Navy and also potential non-U.S. Navy customers, should the Company have excess capacity.
