EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp. (“Tel-Instrument,� “TIC,� or the “Company�) (OTCQB: TIKK), a leading designer and manufacturer of avionics test and measurement solutions, today reported a net income of $342K on revenues of $8.8 million for the 2024 fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.

Highlights include:

  • Revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, increased $178K, or 2%, versus the prior fiscal year.
  • Gross margin for the 2024 fiscal year was 46.6%, or 11.3 percentage points increase over the prior fiscal year.
  • Operating expenses decreased by $666K, or 17% year-over-year, due primarily to client funded engineering projects.
  • Operating income was $737K as compared to an operating loss of $898K in the prior fiscal year.
  • Net income was $342K, compared to a net loss of $388K in the prior fiscal year.
  • Working capital increased $1.2 million or 39% to $4.3 million as compared to the prior fiscal year.
  • Backlog increased $640K from the prior year end to $7.2 million as of March 31, 2024.
  • Recent receipt of Airbus order for SDR/OMNI.

Mr. Jeffrey O’Hara, Tel-Instrument’s President and CEO commented, “The 2024 fiscal year was very difficult due to parts shortages that significantly impacted production. This parts procurement issues are gradually easing, and we expect strong growth in fiscal year 2025. We are extremely excited by the prospects of the SDR-OMNI and the SDR-OMNI/MIL. We were pleased that Airbus selected our SDR-OMNI test set for use in its world-wide manufacturing operations after an extensive technical evaluation. We are even more excited about the prospects for the SDR-OMNI/MIL which has the potential to replace thousands of obsolete test sets currently in use by the U.S. military. The SDR-OMNI and SDR-OMNI/MIL are the only multi-purpose avionic test set in the market that meets Class 1 military environmental specification. We are confident that these two multi-purpose test sets provide market leading capabilities. We are also introducing a GPS simulator software application this summer.

The CRAFT ECP contract will be critical for the Company as this is expected to generate five million dollars of annual production revenues, starting when the engineering work is completed. TIC successfully completed the Test Readiness Review (“TRR�) in April 2024. The next major milestone is the Production Readiness Review that is scheduled for later this year. We expect to start shipping upgraded Navy production units in the fourth quarter of FY 2025.

The Lockheed Martin F-35 MADL Test Set development program has been completed. We are currently in negotiations to supply up to 119 MADL test sets this year.
