INC. ANNOUNCES FISCAL 2023 THIRD QUARTER
CA, May 4, 2023 - PRO-DEX, INC. (NasdaqCM: PDEX)
today announced financial results for its fiscal 2023 third quarter ended March 31, 2023. The Company also filed its Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 with the Securities and Exchange Commission today.
Ended March 31, 2023
sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023, increased $3.8 million, or 41%, to $13.1 million from $9.3 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2022, due primarily to increased repair revenue of $3.2 million related to an enhanced
repair program launched this fiscal year to upgrade the handpiece we sell our largest customer to its most current generation.
profit for the three months ended March 31, 2023, increased $953,000, or 33%, to $3.8 million from $2.9 million for the same period in
fiscal 2022. The gross profit increase is consistent with our increase in net sales and is benefited by our resolution and agreement
with our largest customer related to previously upgraded repairs. Additionally, we have continued to experience higher costs across much
of our supply chain.
expenses (which include selling, general and administrative, and research and development expenses) for the quarter ended March 31, 2023,
decreased slightly, by 5%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2022 mostly due to reduced general and administration expenses.
income for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, was $1.3 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, compared to $462,000, or $0.12 per diluted
share, for the corresponding quarter in fiscal 2022.
Months Ended March 31, 2023
sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, increased $6.0 million, or 20%, to $35.4 million from $29.4 million for the nine months
ended March 31, 2022, due to increased repair revenue of $4.3 million related to the enhanced repair
program described above, as well as an increase of $1.5 million in billable non-recurring engineering projects.
profit for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, decreased $299,000, or 3%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2022. The gross profit
decline for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, is due in part to the enhanced repair program described above, which includes the advance
replacement of many costly components of the handpiece, as well as higher costs across much of our supply chain.
expenses (which include selling, general and administrative, and research and development expenses) for the nine months ended March 31,
2023, decreased 9% to $5.2 million from $5.7 million in the prior fiscal year's corresponding period, mostly due to reduced non-cash
stock based compensation expense recorded in general and administrative expenses.
income for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 was $3.3 million, or $0.89, per diluted share, compared to $2.5 million, or $0.65 per
diluted share, for the corresponding period in fiscal 2022.

said the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, Richard L. ("Rick") Van Kirk. "We are tracking toward
