Trio-Tech International (NYSE MKT: TRT) today announced financial results for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2022.

Fiscal 2022 Second Quarter Results

Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2021 increased 33% to $10,922,000 compared to $8,201,000 for the same quarter last year, driven by a 39% increase in testing services revenue and a 127% increase in distribution revenue.

Overall gross margin for the second quarter increased to 26% of revenue compared to 23% of revenue for the same quarter last year. Operating income increased to $656,000 compared to an operating loss of $37,000 for last year’s second quarter.

Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 264% to $855,000, or $0.20 per diluted share, compared to net income of $235,000, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2021.

Shareholders' equity at December 31, 2021 increased to $27,820,000, or $7.06 per outstanding share, compared to $26,053,000, or $6.66 per outstanding share, at June 30, 2021. There were approximately 3,939,180 and 3,913,055 shares of common stock outstanding at December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

CEO Comments

S.W. Yong, Trio-Tech's CEO, said, “Compared to the same quarter last year, the significant increase in net income primarily reflects the strong second quarter performance of our testing services and distribution operations. While backlog remains strong and the Company is focused on expanding our service offerings, we remain cautiously optimistic regarding the current fiscal third quarter ending March 31, 2022, typically the weakest quarter of our fiscal year, due to holidays and vacations related to the celebration of the Chinese New Year.”

Yong added, “We have successfully established our joint-venture company and installed the first burn-in system at the new facilities of Trio-Tech (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd. They are now ready for qualification and we anticipate commencing volume production in the coming fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.”

Fiscal 2022 First Half Results

For the first six months of fiscal 2022, revenue increased 40% to $21,093,000 compared to $15,042,000 for the same period last year.

Overall gross margin for the first six months of fiscal 2022 increased to $6,069,000, compared to $3,388,000 for the same period last year and increased to 29% of revenue compared to 23% in the same period last year.

Net income for the first half of fiscal 2022 increased 681% to $1,772,000, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to $227,000, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the same period last year.
