New heading “Geopolitical instability and conflict in the Middle East may cause disruptions in the supply chain for critical components of our products.”
Largest changes
“The conflict in and around Iran has increased instability in the Middle East region and generated new economic uncertainty in global supply chains, due in part to the restriction of shipping activity through the Strait of Hormuz. The semiconductor industry is particularly vulnerable to such disruptions, as critical raw materials, specialty chemicals, and advanced manufacturing components are often sourced from or transported through affected regions. …”see in full comparison

PresidentTrump has proposedTrump's steepandadditional tariffs on the importation of goods from a number of countries from which we purchase materials, including the raw materials we currently use for the manufacture of our products, including, but not limited to, Malaysia and China. This increase in tariffs imposed could materially and adversely affect our business and our results of operations. While we have alternative suppliers outside Malaysia and China, the Trump administration has imposed or threatened additional tariffs on substantially all foreign jurisdictions, which are potential alternative providers of raw materials to our company. Since the beginning of 2018 during Trump’s first administration, there has been increasing rhetoric, in some cases coupled with legislative or executive action, from several U.S. and foreign leaders regarding the possibility of instituting tariffs on the foreign imports of certain materials and products. During this trend, the U.S. and China imposed tariffs or announced proposed tariffs to be applied in the future to certain of each other’s exports. Beginning in 2019, the first Trump administration imposed tariffs on imports of electronics products of up to 25% and recently an additional 10% tariff to all products. Trump’s second administration has significantly increased its focus on tariffs. In March 2025, additional tariffshave beenwere instituted on Chinese andallother foreign products andmaterialsmaterials.andWhile on February 20, 2026, the US Supreme Court ruled that most tariffs imposed by the Trump Administration were unlawful, we could see potential additional tariffs in the future. Under the current Trump administration, the imposition of additional tariffs fluctuates dramatically and have created uncertainty in global markets. These tariffs apply to a substantial percentage of our respective materials and, as a result, in the future, we may be forced to implement additional price increases to adjust to the higher costs of production and sale of our products, which imposes the risk of reduced demand for such products, thus lowering sales and the resulting revenue. Additionally, future tariffs, or any further costs or restrictions imposed on materials that we import, which lead to an increase in our prices, may result in the loss of customers and harm our business.

Our Board of Directors has authorized a repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $2,000,000 of the Company's common stock.

Geopolitical instability and conflict in the Middle East may cause disruptions in the supply chain for critical components of our products.
The conflict in and around Iran has increased instability in the Middle East region and generated new economic uncertainty in global supply chains, due in part to the restriction of shipping activity through the Strait of Hormuz. The semiconductor industry is particularly vulnerable to such disruptions, as critical raw materials, specialty chemicals, and advanced manufacturing components are often sourced from or transported through affected regions. Extended supply chain disruptions could result in shortages or delays in obtaining essential parts, materials, and equipment necessary for semiconductor fabrication, potentially leading to production slowdowns, increased manufacturing costs, and an inability to meet customer demand. The broader consequences of these conflicts are uncertain, and could include further sanctions, embargoes, regional instability, geopolitical shifts and adverse effects on macroeconomic conditions, the availability of raw materials, supplies, freight and labor, currency exchange rates and financial markets, all of which could materially and adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our Board of Directors has authorized a repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $2,000,000 of the Company's common stock. The Company repurchased 3,850 shares of common stock in fiscal 2026 and did not repurchase any shares of common stock in fiscal 2025 or fiscal 2024.2025. Any determination to pay cash dividends or repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock in the future is contingent on a variety of factors, including our financial condition, results of operations, business requirements, and our Board of Directors' determination that such dividends or stock repurchases are in the best interests of our stockholders and in compliance with all applicable laws and agreements. Accordingly, there is no assurance that we will pay cash dividends or repurchase stock pursuant to our stock repurchase program, or that any declaration of cash dividends or stock repurchases under our stock repurchase program will have a beneficial impact on our stock price.

“The Company’s previously authorized stock repurchase program permits the Company to acquire up to $2,000,000 of its outstanding common stock from time to time. Purchases under the amended stock repurchase program may be made through the open market or privately negotiated transactions as determined by the Company’s management, and in accordance with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price, corporate and regulatory requirements and other conditions.”see in full comparison
