Optical Cable Corp (OCC) achieved a 9.5% increase in net sales for fiscal year 2025, totaling $73 million, despite a net loss of $1.5 million for the year. Gross profit rose by 24.1%, with the gross profit margin increasing to 30.9%.

OCC's SG&A expenses increased to $23 million, but as a percentage of net sales, they decreased, indicating improved operational efficiency. The strategic collaboration with Lightera is anticipated to enhance growth in data center and enterprise sectors, although the sales impact is not expected until fiscal year 2026.

OCC recorded a net income of $49,000 for Q4 FY 2025, down from $373,000 the previous year. Despite some project delays, OCC remains optimistic about growth opportunities in fiscal year 2026.
