Key Tronic Corporation Announces Results for the Fourth Quarter and Year End of Fiscal 2026
Key Tronic reported Q4 revenue of $102.0 million, a 14% sequential increase but an 7.7% decrease year-over-year, with gross margin expanding to 7.8%.
The company recorded a net loss of $34.3 million, heavily impacted by a $28.4 million valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and an $8.4 million write-off of receivables from distressed customers; on an adjusted basis, the net loss narrowed to $2.9 million.
Operational constraints, including liquidity issues that delayed $10 million in shipments, persist alongside strategic shifts like the completed exit from China which is expected to save $4.0 million annually.
