CVD Equipment Corporation (NASDAQ: CVV) (the “Company”) today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Highlights

  • Completed sale of SDC division on April 1, 2026 for $17.4 million.

  • Generated net cash proceeds of approximately $15.0 million from the transaction after transaction costs and estimated tax payments to be made in the third quarter.

  • Ended the quarter with approximately $23.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and no long-term debt.

  • Reported net income of $12.6 million for the quarter, reflecting the $13.9 million gain on the divestiture of SDC.

  • Completed major operational restructuring expected to significantly reduce the Company’s fixed cost structure.

Manny Lakios, President and Chief Executive Officer of CVD Equipment Corporation, stated, “The successful divestiture of SDC marks a transformational milestone in the evolution of CVD Equipment. The transaction significantly strengthened our balance sheet, increased our financial flexibility, and allows us to pursue long-term growth opportunities while we continue to evaluate strategic alternatives for the Company.

While customer order levels continue to be adversely affected by the broader economic and geopolitical uncertainty, we remain actively engaged with our customers and are continuing to pursue opportunities developing across our target markets. We are also focused on maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation and expense control, with a goal of creating long-term shareholder value.”

Second Quarter 2026 Performance from Continuing Operations

(excluding the discontinued operations of SDC)

Balance Sheet

As a result of the divestiture of the SDC division:

  • Cash increased to $23.5 million from $8.7 million at December 31, 2025.

  • Stockholders’ equity increased to $36.0 million from $24.7 million.

Operations

  • Orders: $1.2 million (includes a $0.8 million PowderCoat 450 system order), a decrease from $1.5 million in the prior year quarter, due to lower system and non-system orders.

  • Revenue: $2.0 million, down 42.6% as compared to prior year quarter. Revenue continued to reflect lower system bookings during 2025 and early 2026.

  • Gross margin: 16.8% versus 14.1% in the prior year quarter, principally due to a higher proportion of non-system revenues in the current quarter.

  • Backlog: $3.9 million at June 30, 2026, as compared to $4.6 million at March 31, 2026.

Earnings (Loss)

  • Net loss from continuing operations: ($1.4 million), or ($0.20) per basic and diluted share, compared with net loss from continuing operations of ($1.3 million), or ($0.19) per basic and diluted share, in the prior year quarter.

  • Net income from discontinued operations: $13.9 million, or $2.01 per basic and diluted share, consisting of the gain on the divestiture of SDC of $13.9 million, net of transaction expenses and income tax expense. Including $0.4 million of transaction costs recognized during the first quarter of 2026, the total net gain on the divestiture was $13.5 million.

Following quarter-end, the customer associated with the $0.8 million system order filed a prepackaged Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding. Although unsecured trade creditors are expected to be unimpaired under the proposed plan, the Company is evaluating the potential impact on the order and its backlog, financial results, financial position, and cash flows.
