LITTLETON, Mass., Sept. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Precision Optics Corporation, Inc. (NASDAQ: POCI), a leading designer and manufacturer of advanced optical instruments for the medical and defense/aerospace industries, today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended June 30, 2026.

Recent Additional Highlights
FY 2027 Financial Guidance (Year Ending June 30, 2027)
“Fiscal 2026 was a year of transformation for Precision Optics, and our fourth-quarter results demonstrate the progress we have made. We delivered record quarterly revenue, and a second consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA, closing a year in which revenue grew 65%,” said Joe Forkey, CEO of Precision Optics. “Our fiscal 2027 revenue guidance is significantly impacted by the temporary pause in production with our existing satellite customer. As that customer resumes orders and we execute on growing existing and new customers, we anticipate returning to record quarterly revenue levels in the second half of the fiscal year. We believe there is a significant market opportunity, and we will continue to invest in capabilities, capacity and market penetration.”
“Rebuilding our product development pipeline is a priority led by our new SVP of Sales and Marketing. We received an initial engineering order from a second satellite customer. Although it is still early, we see the potential to build another meaningful, long-term production relationship.”
The following table summarizes the fourth quarter and fiscal year results for the periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Fourth-quarter results are unaudited.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Precision Optics has provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“non-GAAP”). The non-GAAP financial measure is Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization). In addition to these items, Adjusted EBITDA excludes from Net Income (Loss) the effect of stock-based compensation, interest expense and interest income, depreciation and amortization and income taxes..
This non-GAAP financial measure assists Precision Optics management in comparing its operating performance over time because certain items may obscure the underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult, as they are of a nature and/or size that occur with inconsistent frequency or relate to discrete acquisition or restructuring plans that are fundamentally different from the ongoing productivity of the Company. Precision Optics management also believes that presenting this measure allows investors to view its performance using the same measures that the Company uses in evaluating its financial and business performance and trends.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure presented above to GAAP results has been provided in the financial tables included with this press release.
Precision Optics is unable to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, without unreasonable efforts because of the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including stock-based compensation expense, which may vary significantly based on stock price and other factors outside the Company’s control. The unavailable information could have a significant effect on the Company’s GAAP financial results.
About Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws including statements concerning our fiscal year 2027 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance, our expectations regarding customer demand and order resumption, and our anticipated return to record revenue levels. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intends," "may," "might," "plan," "possible," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "would" and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the management of the Company in light of their respective experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, and expected future developments and their potential effects on the Company as well as other factors they believe are appropriate in the circumstances. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting the Company will be those anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the control of the parties), or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, including the demand for the Company's products, global supply chains and economic activity in general and other risks and uncertainties identified in the Company's filings with the SEC. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should any of the assumptions being made prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
