Current thesis
Primary sources support a high-quality but narrow earnings print: Q4 net income rose 27%, full-year net income edged up to $15.2 million, operating cash flow reached $16.7 million, and the company still had about $48 million of cash plus marketable securities on its fact sheet. The completed production expansion and expected lower FY27 equipment purchases create a plausible cash-conversion tailwind if product demand remains firm.
