The Fort Worth Press - IEH Corporation Filed Form 10-Q for Fiscal Quarter Ended December 31, 2025

Highlights include:

• 3.9% Increase in Revenue as compared to third quarter of Fiscal Year 2025

• $723,444 loss in Q3 Operating Income, primarily due to cost of gold and tariff charges

• Cash remains unchanged compared to third quarter of Fiscal Year 2025

• Five-year high in backlog, primarily due to orders in support of missile defense programs

• SEC dismissal of its administrative proceeding against IEH, which should enable uplisting in OTC marketplace

For the quarter ended December 31, 2025, IEH had revenues of $7,497,879 as compared to $7,217,616 for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, reflecting a 3.9% increase; an operating loss of $723,444 for 3^rd quarter fiscal year 2026 as compared to an operating loss of $130,086 for 3^rd quarter fiscal year 2025; a net loss of $660,286 for 3^rd quarter fiscal year 2026 as compared to a net loss of $61,640 for 3^rd quarter fiscal year 2025; and a basic loss per share of $.27 for 3^rd quarter fiscal year 2026 as compared to a basic loss per share of $.03 for 3^rd quarter fiscal year 2025.

Dave Offerman, President and CEO of IEH Corporation, commented, "The relentless, steep rise in gold over the past two years, along with tariffs and other rising costs, continue to pressure our margins. While we continue to aggressively and strategically raise prices, we are still playing "catch-up" to these increases. In 2025, gold experienced its highest annual increase in 46 years, and most forecasts predict this rise to continue in 2026. To hedge against these increases, we have been more strategic in the timing and volume of our gold purchases, in an effort to mitigate these historic trends.

In tandem with these efforts, we are investing in infrastructure and capacity which will allow us to reduce costs through production efficiencies, and less reliance on outside, often overseas suppliers. We expect the cost savings from these investments to manifest in our next fiscal year.

Fortunately, our outlook for the next fiscal year and beyond remains very positive. Demand for the parts we supply in support of missile defense and related military programs continues to rise, and global defense spending is expected to sharply increase over the next several years, which bodes very well for IEH. This has led to our highest backlog since December 2020, and with a very strong sales pipeline, we expect this growth to continue. It is also worth noting that much of this business is sole-source and thus highly profitable, which should go a long way toward improving our margins. At the same time, we are starting to see more business for the commercial aerospace platforms we support, in particular the Boeing 737Max, and with recent news that the FAA has allowed Boeing to increase output on that jet, we expect that growth to accelerate in the coming months. We continue to win new designs in commercial space applications, and with an enhanced sales presence overseas, uncover new opportunities in foreign markets.

We also continue to actively pursue acquisition opportunities, for the purpose of diversifying both our product offerings, as well as our markets served. I look forward to sharing more details on those efforts as they progress.

Finally, as noted in our January 15^th press release, the SEC finally dismissed their administrative proceeding against IEH, for the late filings of 2021-2023. With this matter firmly behind us, we are in the process of applying to uplist our stock to a platform that allows for greater liquidity, shareholder visibility and investment opportunities.

On behalf of the management team and staff of IEH, we again wish to express our sincere gratitude for the support of our valued shareholders."

The Company believes these judgments are reasonable, but you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results, and you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. The Company's actual performance or results could differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of important factors, both positive and negative, as they will depend on many factors about which we are unsure, including many factors beyond our control.
