Vishay Precision Group (NYSE:VPG – Get Free Report) announced its quarterly earnings results on Wednesday. The scientific and technical instruments company reported $0.14 EPS for the quarter, missing analysts’ consensus estimates of $0.15 by ($0.01), FiscalAI reports. Vishay Precision Group had a net margin of 1.20% and a return on equity of 1.77%. The firm had revenue of $87.41 million for the quarter, compared to analyst estimates of $86.47 million.
Here are the key takeaways from Vishay Precision Group’s conference call:
- Adjusted revenue rose 10% year over year to $87.4 million, while orders reached $103 million and the company’s book-to-bill ratio stayed above 1.0 for an eighth consecutive quarter. Management said the backlog and demand trends support potential 2027 revenue growth of 10%–12%, above its original plan, and first-quarter 2027 revenue of $90 million or more.
- Sensors delivered record bookings of $51.7 million, led by semiconductor equipment and data-center infrastructure demand; management estimated AI-related business at roughly 20%–30% of the segment. VPG is adding capacity and staff to convert the growing backlog, though it said expansion and training take time.
- Adjusted gross margin improved sequentially to 39.3%, adjusted EBITDA rose to $8.2 million, and free cash flow was $5.5 million. The company also reported $4.2 million in year-to-date cost savings and remains on track for about $6 million for 2026.
- Humanoid robotics revenue remains at an early stage, and the initial customer delayed its production ramp to Q4 because of supply-chain complexity. VPG expects orders to build gradually before accelerating in 2027, leaving timing and scale uncertain.
- Foreign exchange reduced third-quarter adjusted operating profit by $3.4 million year over year, and the higher tax rate cut adjusted EPS by about $0.03 per share. Fourth-quarter revenue guidance is $84 million–$91 million, reflecting factors including fewer working days and variability in humanoid orders.
