Expert Statements

Edward J. Richardson, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President of Richardson Electronics

“Fiscal 2027 is off to an excellent start, as Richardson Electronics delivered its ninth consecutive quarter of year-over-year sales growth, expanded levels of profitability, and generated strong free cash flow. First-quarter performance continued to reflect strong demand in Power and Microwave Technologies (PMT), particularly for engineered solutions serving the semiconductor wafer fabrication equipment market, as well as distributed RF and microwave products. We also experienced significant growth in Green Energy Solutions (GES) and Canvys. Overall, our team delivered another strong operating performance.”

“Our backlog ended the first quarter at $184.4 million, which increased year-over-year by nearly $50 million, or 36.9%, and the highest level in more than three years. While the broader economic environment remains fluid, we remain focused on driving the adoption of our engineered solutions, increasing efficiency, and executing against our long-term strategic growth priorities. We believe fiscal 2027 will be another year of profitable growth supported by the highest level of backlog in more than three years, and continued customer demand across semiconductor manufacturing, power management, energy storage, defense and specialized display solutions.”
