●

Adjusted EBITDA* for the quarter decreased 4% to $12.3 million compared to $12.9 million, and Adjusted EBITDA per share (diluted)* for the quarter decreased 6% to $0.33 compared to $0.35 for the same period last year, respectively.

Richard Soloway, Chairman and CEO, commented, "Fiscal 2025 began with record revenue and net income for any first quarter in the Company’s history and represents the sixteenth consecutive quarter of record sales for a quarterly reporting period. Our record quarterly net income of $11.2 million represents 25% of sales, and our Adjusted EBITDA was $12.3 million for Q1 and equates to a 28% EBITDA margin. Our cellular (radio) communication device sales increased 93% compared to Q1 last year and represent 70% of our Intrusion and Access Alarm product sales. In addition, radio sales for Q1 increased 23% sequentially and represent the highest level of radio sales since Q3 of fiscal 2023, which was the last quarter positively affected by the Verizon 3G sunset. While robust radio sales do have a negative impact on our overall equipment gross margins, which was 24% for Q1 compared to 28% in last year’s first quarter, strong radio sales ultimately leads to increases in our recurring revenue business. Overall, our equipment revenue decreased 6% for the quarter, which partially was a result of a decrease in our door locking sales, which decreased 8% compared to last year. Locking products represents approximately 60% of our equipment revenues and the decline was primarily attributable to several locking distributors’ efforts to lower their inventory levels. Our RSR increased 22% to $21.1 million and generated a gross margin of 91%, which was an improvement on last year’s RSR margin of 90%. RSR represents 48% of total revenue in Q1 and our overall gross margin improved by over 200 basis points to 55.9% compared to 53.8% last year.”

We continue to see growth in school and classroom security, healthcare, and retail loss-prevention, as well as in multi-dwelling commercial and residential applications and remain confident that such sales will improve throughout fiscal 2025, as we continue to remain focused on further penetrating each of these markets.

Our recent introduction of Prima by NAPCO, a new All-in-One Panel for security, fire, video and connected home with a 15-minute installation, remains a very important focus to the Company. When initially released approximately one year ago, the Prima line was not complete as certain required peripherals were not yet available. That has changed as the line is now complete, including doorbells, indoor/outdoor cameras, smoke detectors and strobes/sirens. Our goal is for Prima to address an important mass segment of the security market, including residential and small business systems. With built-in Wi-Fi/cellular radio communications, customer alert notifications, and video and smart home subscription options for each installed system, the security dealer, as well as the Company, can add more recurring service revenue generating accounts.

Our balance sheet continues to get stronger, with cash and cash equivalents, other investments and marketable securities increasing to $102.2 million. We have no outstanding debt and the net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was approximately $12 million in Q1.

Mr. Soloway concluded, "Fiscal 2025 began with more record-breaking sales and profits. As fiscal 2025 progresses, we are very encouraged with the strength of our Starlink radios sales, particularly the Starlink Fire radio, which generates the most profitable recurring revenue and our expectation is that Starlink radio sales will remain strong. While we were disappointed in our overall equipment sales, we anticipate improvement in our locking sales once distributors complete the reduction of their inventory levels, which should lead to improved equipment revenue, improved equipment gross margins and the continuation of our very profitable recurring revenue. Our strong net income and Adjusted EBITDA*, coupled with the significant cash generated from operations continues to grow our cash position. We are pleased continue our dividend program and will be paying the next quarterly dividend of $0.125 per share on January 3, 2025. As always, we will strive to accomplish our goal of continued financial strength, product innovation, technical superiority, and strong profitability, for the balance of fiscal 2025 and beyond".

*Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain non-GAAP measures are included in this press release, including non-GAAP operating income, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per share (diluted). We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income plus income tax expense, net interest expense, non-cash stock-based expense, non-recurring legal expense, other non-recurring income and depreciation and amortization expense. Non-GAAP operating income does not include amortization of intangibles or stock-based compensation expense.

For example, the terms used in this press release, such as Adjusted EBITDA, do not have a standardized meaning. Other companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide investors with a comparable view of our performance in relation to other companies. The presentation of this information is not meant to be a substitute for the corresponding financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures set forth above.
