NATIONAL PRESTO INDUSTRIES INC

NPK

National Presto Industries reported fiscal 2025 revenue of $163.97 million, a 21.7% increase year-over-year, driven primarily by expansion in its Defense segment despite challenges in Housewares/Small Appliances. Operating income declined 11% to $40.24 million, and net income fell 27.6% to $15 million due to margin pressures and a vendor deposit impairment. Elevated capital expenditures of $27 million and negative operating cash flow contributed to a free cash flow deficit, while a strong current ratio of 4.24x supports liquidity. Key risks include raw material inflation, reliance on Asian suppliers, regulatory hurdles in the Safety segment, and the fixed-price nature of government contracts impacting margins.
