NVE Corporation Reports Second Quarter Results and Announces Quarterly Dividend

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn.—October 20, 2021—NVE Corporation (Nasdaq: NVEC) announced today financial results for the quarter and six months ended September 30, 2021.

Total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 56% to $6.82 million from $4.38 million in the prior-year quarter. The increase was due to a 59% increase in product sales partially offset by a 13% decrease in contract research and development revenue. Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 64% to $3.65 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, compared to $2.22 million, or $0.46 per share, for the prior-year quarter.

For the first six months of fiscal 2022, total revenue increased 56% to $14.0 million from $8.97 million for the first six months of the prior year. The increase was due to a 59% increase in product sales partially offset by a 13% decrease in contract research and development revenue. Net income increased 56% to $7.23 million, or $1.49 per diluted share, from $4.63 million, or $0.96 per share, for the first half of fiscal 2021.

The company also announced a quarterly cash dividend to shareholders of $1.00 per share of common stock, payable November 30, 2021 to shareholders of record as of November 1, 2021.

“We are pleased to report our second consecutive quarter of large year-over-year increases in product sales, total revenue, and earnings,” said NVE President and Chief Executive Officer Daniel A. Baker, Ph.D.
