NVE Corporation Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year Results

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn.—May 7, 2014—NVE Corporation (Nasdaq: NVEC) announced today financial results for the quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.

Total revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 decreased 17% to $5.98 million from $7.22 million in the prior-year quarter. The decrease was due to a 9% decrease in product sales and an 85% decrease in contract research and development revenue. Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 decreased 18% to $2.56 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, compared to $3.11 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, for the prior-year quarter.

For fiscal 2014, total revenue decreased 4% to $25.9 million from $27.0 million for the prior fiscal year. Product sales increased 4% to $25.5 million and contract research and development revenue decreased 84% to $423,000. Net income for fiscal 2014 decreased 6% to $11.1 million, or $2.29 per diluted share, compared to $11.8 million, or $2.43 per diluted share, for fiscal 2013.

“We are pleased to report an increase in product sales and record gross margins for the year,” said NVE President and Chief Executive Officer Daniel A. Baker, Ph.D.
