On June 04, 2026, Uniti Group Inc UNIT shares rose 5.0% today, currently trading at $11.79. The stock has shown a strong price performance, with a 1-year gain of 172.9% and a year-to-date increase of 68.2%. The shares have fluctuated between a 52-week high of $12.39 and a low of $4.00.
GF Value™ verdict: The current price of $11.79 is 9.9% above the GF Value™ estimate of $10.73, indicating a slight overvaluation.GF Score™ is 82/100, suggesting strong overall performance and potential for long-term returns.Insiders sold $0.1M worth of stock in the last 3 months, indicating a lack of buying enthusiasm from those closest to the company. Is UNIT Overvalued or Undervalued? According to the GF Value™, Uniti Group Inc is currently overvalued, as its market price of $11.79 exceeds the calculated fair value of $10.73 by 9.9%. This overvaluation suggests a potential risk for investors, as the stock may not provide a sufficient margin of safety. The GF Valuation label indicates that while the stock is trading above its intrinsic value, the overall strong performance reflected in its GF Score™ may still attract investors looking for growth opportunities.
GF Value™ is GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value, calculated from historical trading multiples, past business growth, and future performance estimates. Given the current pricing dynamics, investors should be cautious about entering positions at these elevated levels, especially considering the selling activity by insiders, which could signal a lack of confidence in the stock's future performance.
How Does UNIT's Valuation Compare to Its History? Metric Current Historical P/E (TTM) 3.5x 13.7x Forward P/E 96.6x N/A Currently, Uniti Group Inc's P/E ratio of 3.5x is significantly below its 5-year median of 13.7x, suggesting that the stock is trading at a historically low valuation multiple. However, the forward P/E of 96.6x indicates that future earnings expectations are high, which may be inconsistent with the GF Value™ verdict that the stock is overvalued. This discrepancy points to a potential misalignment between current market sentiment and historical valuation norms.
What Does UNIT's GF Score™ Tell Us? The GF Score™ ranks stocks from 0 to 100 based on five key aspects: Financial Strength, Profitability, Growth, Valuation, and Momentum. Stocks with higher GF Score™ values have been found to generate higher long-term returns (backtested 2006-2021).
Metric Rating GF Score™ 82 Financial Strength 2/10 Profitability 7/10 Growth 10/10 Valuation 7/10 Momentum 6/10 The GF Score™ of 82/100 indicates a strong overall performance for Uniti Group Inc. The company excels in growth with a perfect score of 10/10, suggesting robust future potential. However, the financial strength score of 2/10 raises concerns about its stability and ability to weather economic downturns. The profitability rank of 7/10 and valuation rank of 7/10 reflect a balanced performance but highlight the need for caution given the financial vulnerabilities.
What Are Insiders Doing with UNIT Stock? In the past three months, insiders have sold $0.1M worth of Uniti Group Inc stock, with no reported purchases. This trend of selling could indicate a lack of confidence among company executives regarding the stock's future performance. Typically, insider selling may suggest that those closest to the company do not foresee significant upside in the near term, which could be a red flag for potential investors.
What This Means for Investors Based on the GF Value™, Uniti Group Inc is currently overvalued, trading above its intrinsic value with a price of $11.79 compared to a fair value of $10.73. This overvaluation, coupled with the recent insider selling, suggests that potential investors should proceed with caution as there may be limited upside in the near term.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., June 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Uniti Wholesale today announced a strategic collaboration with Beanfield to expand cross-border connectivity options between Canada and the United States. Beanfield is a Canadian fiber service provider with a dense metro footprint, delivering high-performance connectivity and dark fiber to business customers and serving key data centers.
The collaboration is anchored by CanAm2, Uniti Wholesale’s high-count dark fiber route connecting Montreal to the New York metro region, creating a direct foundation for scalable connectivity between Canadian markets and major U.S. interconnection hubs.
By combining Uniti Wholesale’s long-haul U.S. network scale with Beanfield’s metro fiber reach in Canada, the collaboration expands where customers can connect and how they can architect cross-border networks.
“Customers are demanding more reach, more control, and more speed—particularly for cross-border connectivity,” said John Nishimoto, senior vice president, Strategy, Products and Marketing, Uniti Wholesale. “Through CanAm2 and in collaboration with Beanfield, we’re expanding options from Montreal into the New York metro region and beyond—giving customers access to high-count dark fiber, and enhanced wavelength reach to extend connectivity into the U.S. and across Canada.”

INDIANAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Closure Systems International (“CSI”), a global leader in closure solutions, today announced the acquisition of two beverage closure compression molding facilities from Amcor (NYSE: AMCR, ASX:AMC), a global leader in developing and producing responsible packaging solutions.

Over the past year, we have executed a smooth integration, built a strong leadership structure, and made meaningful progress on synergy delivery and portfolio optimization.
Amcor (AMCR - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.96 per share, in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate . This compares to earnings of $0.9 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of -0.19%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this packaging company would post earnings of $0.83 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.86, delivering a surprise of +3.61%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates just once.
Amcor, which belongs to the Zacks Containers - Paper and Packaging industry, posted revenues of $5.91 billion for the quarter ended March 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 3.81%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $3.33 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates just once over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
Amcor shares have lost about 9.7% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 6%.
What's Next for Amcor?While Amcor has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Amcor was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $1.17 on $5.87 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $3.94 on $22.92 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Containers - Paper and Packaging is currently in the bottom 35% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
One other stock from the same industry, Karat Packing (KRT - Free Report) , is yet to report results for the quarter ended March 2026. The results are expected to be released on May 7.
This company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.32 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -3%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.
Karat Packing's revenues are expected to be $113 million, up 9.1% from the year-ago quarter.
For the quarter ended March 2026, Amcor (AMCR - Free Report) reported revenue of $5.91 billion, up 77.4% over the same period last year. EPS came in at $0.96, compared to $0.90 in the year-ago quarter.
The reported revenue represents a surprise of +3.81% over the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $5.7 billion. With the consensus EPS estimate being $0.96, the EPS surprise was -0.19%.
While investors closely watch year-over-year changes in headline numbers -- revenue and earnings -- and how they compare to Wall Street expectations to determine their next course of action, some key metrics always provide a better insight into a company's underlying performance.
As these metrics influence top- and bottom-line performance, comparing them to the year-ago numbers and what analysts estimated helps investors project a stock's price performance more accurately.
Here is how Amcor performed in the just reported quarter in terms of the metrics most widely monitored and projected by Wall Street analysts:
Net Sales- Global Flexible Packaging Solutions: $3.25 billion versus the three-analyst average estimate of $3.09 billion. The reported number represents a year-over-year change of +24.8%.Net Sales- Global Rigid Packaging Solutions: $2.66 billion versus the three-analyst average estimate of $2.41 billion. The reported number represents a year-over-year change of +265.9%.Adjusted EBIT- Global Flexible Packaging Solutions: $452 million versus the three-analyst average estimate of $479.54 million.Adjusted EBIT- Global Rigid Packaging Solutions: $276 million versus the three-analyst average estimate of $265.91 million.Adjusted EBIT- Other: $-42 million compared to the $-24.57 million average estimate based on two analysts.View all Key Company Metrics for Amcor here>>>
Shares of Amcor have returned -3.6% over the past month versus the Zacks S&P 500 composite's +10.3% change. The stock currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), indicating that it could perform in line with the broader market in the near term.
Amcor is reaffirmed as a Strong Buy, supported by robust fundamentals, an attractive ~6.9% dividend yield, and an undervalued share price despite a recent jump. Q3 FY26 results exceeded expectations, with 6% Adj. EPS growth and a solid 15.1% Adj. EBITDA margin, while portfolio optimization and divestitures show $2.5 billion in potential proceeds. Revised guidance anticipates $1.5–$1.6 billion FCF and 12% Adj. EPS growth, factoring in $270 million in Berry synergies and mitigating Iran conflict impacts despite a hit in their inventory expectations.
Amcor remains a Buy, offering a 6.5% dividend yield and trading at a significant discount to sector multiples. Despite recent underperformance versus the benchmark, I see developing tailwinds, stable bottom-line growth, and a defensive profile supporting long-term value. AMCR trades at 10x forward P/E with double-digit EPS growth expected, and management signals ongoing share buybacks and dividend stability.

We recently obtained a $36.5 million securities settlement against Maxar Technologies, a space imagery company, after its share price collapsed following its acquisition of DigitalGlobe. Our attorneys have obtained multimillion-dollar recoveries for victims of unfair and deceptive practices in antitrust, financial fraud, and consumer protection matters against some of the country’s largest corporations, including Raymond James, John Hancock, and Sears.

With the S&P 500 grinding sideways and Treasury yields keeping income hunters on edge, dividend-paying stocks trading under $40 are getting a fresh look from retail investors who want defensive cash flow without paying a premium. Consumer packaging is about as defensive as the materials sector gets, and one global leader is sitting well below its long-term fair value while still raising the payout. That combination is rare enough to warrant a closer look right now.
With that in mind, here is one stock trading under $40 that looks mispriced relative to its income profile and synergy runway.
Amcor (NYSE: AMCR) Amcor (NYSE:AMCR | AMCR Price Prediction) is a UK-domiciled packaging company that makes flexible packaging, rigid containers, closures, and cartons for the food, beverage, healthcare, beauty, and home care customers you already buy from every week. After closing the all-stock acquisition of Berry Global on April 30, 2025, it now sits at the center of a $23 billion revenue platform serving consumer staples brands across more than 40 countries.
Shares closed at $38.38 on May 22, 2026, down 6.74% year-to-date and 11.2% over the past year. For a retail investor scanning under-$40 names, that slide is the opportunity: a global consumer packaging leader has been sold down with the broader materials group, even though its end markets are mostly recession-resistant.
The fundamentals back up the income thesis. Amcor pays a $0.65 quarterly dividend, an annualized $2.60 per share, with the next payment due June 17, 2026. The custom thesis frames the forward dividend yield near 5.87%, and management raised the payout 1.96% year-over-year while integrating the largest deal in its history. Forward earnings sit at roughly 10x, with trailing earnings per share of $1.24. The analyst consensus price target of $48.21 sits well above the current quote, and Truist Securities reiterated a Buy rating with a $60 price target after the most recent results.
The bull case is straightforward. Q3 fiscal 2026 delivered adjusted EPS of $0.96 on revenue of $5.91 billion, with adjusted EBITDA margin expanding to 15.1% from 14.3% a year earlier. Berry synergies hit $77 million in the quarter and $140 million year-to-date, tracking the upper end of the $270 million annual target and the $650 million total pre-tax synergy goal by fiscal 2028. Management reaffirmed full-year adjusted EPS guidance of $3.98 to $4.03, roughly 12% growth at the midpoint. CEO Peter Konieczny said the “Third quarter results were in line with expectations and reflect the resilience of our business as we mark the first anniversary of bringing legacy Amcor and Berry together as One Amcor.” The custom thesis adds that Amcor is trading at a 26% discount to long-term fair value, with its narrow economic moat anchored by global scale and entrenched relationships with consumer staples customers still intact.
The risk that cuts against the thesis is leverage. Net debt stands at $14.27 billion after the Berry deal, GAAP net interest expense doubled to $153 million, and management trimmed free cash flow guidance to $1.50 billion to $1.60 billion after Middle East conflict-driven inventory build. Combined volumes were about 1.5% lower year-over-year, and Wells Fargo cut its price target to $41 with an Equal Weight rating citing macro headwinds. Those concerns are real, but they sit on top of a cash-generative consumer packaging franchise that continues to compound through the Berry integration.
For income-focused investors who want a defensive consumer-tied cash flow stream at a discount, Amcor under $40 looks like a high-conviction setup backed by yield, synergy capture, and analyst upside.
The Takeaway Amcor’s under-$40 quote only matters because the underlying yield, synergy roadmap, and analyst targets line up behind it. Do your own research on the leverage profile, free cash flow cadence, and integration milestones before deciding whether this packaging giant fits your portfolio.

A month has gone by since the last earnings report for Amcor (AMCR - Free Report) . Shares have lost about 5.7% in that time frame, underperforming the S&P 500.
Will the recent negative trend continue leading up to its next earnings release, or is Amcor due for a breakout? Before we dive into how investors and analysts have reacted as of late, let's take a quick look at its latest earnings report in order to get a better handle on the important drivers.
Amcor's Q3 Earnings Meet Estimates, Sales Beat on Berry AcquisitionAmcor delivered third-quarter fiscal 2026 adjusted earnings of 96 cents per share, up 6% year over year and in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Reported net sales climbed 77% from the year-ago quarter to $5.91 billion and beat the consensus mark of $5.69 billion.
Results reflected the first full year of the Berry combination and continued integration progress, including $77 million of acquisition synergies in the quarter, along with cost and productivity actions that supported profitability.
Amcor's Margins Improve Despite Integration CostsProfitability advanced meaningfully in the quarter as adjusted EBITDA rose to $892 million from $477 million in the prior-year quarter, translating to a 15.1% margin, up from 14.3% a year ago. Adjusted EBIT increased to $687 million from the prior-year quarter’s $384 million, with the adjusted EBIT margin increasing to 11.6%, highlighting better mix and execution across the combined platform.
The top line was primarily shaped by acquisition-driven expansion. On a constant-currency basis, net sales grew 70% year over year, including $2.4 billion of acquired sales net of divestments, while raw material pass-through had no material impact on consolidated revenues.
Underlying demand remained pressured. Amcor estimated that volumes were 1.5% lower than estimated combined volumes for the legacy Amcor and legacy Berry businesses in the prior-year quarter (excluding non-core and divested businesses). Price/mix was described as having no material impact on net sales.
Flexibles Segment Gains From Scale BenefitsGlobal Flexible Packaging Solutions posted net sales of $3.25 billion, up 35% on a reported basis and 29% in constant currency. Adjusted EBIT increased to $452 million from the prior-year quarter’s $343 million, lifting segment profitability.
The company cited higher volumes in pet food and protein, offset by softer demand in healthcare and other nutrition. Regional trends were also mixed, with volumes lower across North America and Europe and higher across Asia. The segment’s profit improvement reflected integration benefits, productivity and cost performance, partly offset by the volume backdrop.
Rigids Segment Absorbs Weather DisruptionsGlobal Rigid Packaging Solutions generated net sales of $2.66 billion, up 187% year over year on a reported basis and 174% in constant currency, again reflecting the enlarged portfolio following the Berry deal. Adjusted EBIT rose to $276 million, marking a significant increase from the prior-year quarter’s $70 million.
However, the company highlighted an estimated $25-million impact of U.S. storms within the segment, which tempered the results even as synergy capture and cost initiatives supported profitability in the combined footprint.
Amcor's Balance Sheet UpdatesAs of March 31, 2026, Amcor had $1.59 billion in cash and cash equivalents compared with $0.83 billion as of June 30, 2025. The company generated $556 million of cash in operating activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2026 compared with $276 million in the year-ago comparable period, while net debt stood at $14.27 billion at the quarter-end. The board also declared a quarterly dividend of 65 cents per share.
Amcor Lowers EPS & Free Cash Flow ViewAMCR has updated its fiscal 2026 outlook, guiding adjusted earnings of $3.98-$4.03 per share, lower than the prior stated $4.00-$4.15. The company also reduced its free cash flow forecast to $1.5-$1.6 billion from the previously mentioned $1.8-$1.9 billion, citing a shift toward higher inventory levels at higher costs to protect customer service levels amid Middle East conflict-related supply considerations.
How Have Estimates Been Moving Since Then?It turns out, fresh estimates have trended upward during the past month.
VGM ScoresCurrently, Amcor has a average Growth Score of C, a score with the same score on the momentum front. Charting a somewhat similar path, the stock was allocated a grade of B on the value side, putting it in the second quintile for this investment strategy.
Overall, the stock has an aggregate VGM Score of B. If you aren't focused on one strategy, this score is the one you should be interested in.
OutlookEstimates have been broadly trending upward for the stock, and the magnitude of these revisions looks promising. Notably, Amcor has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). We expect an in-line return from the stock in the next few months.
Performance of an Industry PlayerAmcor is part of the Zacks Containers - Paper and Packaging industry. Over the past month, Packaging Corp. (PKG - Free Report) , a stock from the same industry, has gained 0.6%. The company reported its results for the quarter ended March 2026 more than a month ago.
Packaging Corp. reported revenues of $2.37 billion in the last reported quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +10.6%. EPS of $2.40 for the same period compares with $2.31 a year ago.
Packaging Corp. is expected to post earnings of $2.36 per share for the current quarter, representing a year-over-year change of -4.8%. Over the last 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate has changed -0.3%.
The overall direction and magnitude of estimate revisions translate into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for Packaging Corp.. Also, the stock has a VGM Score of D.
Amcor trades at an attractive valuation with a compelling 7% dividend yield and 8.8% free cash flow yield. Volume declines have pressured shares post-Berry acquisition, but easier comps and synergy realization set up for a 2027 recovery. AMCR's free cash flow conversion remains robust, with 2027 guidance implying $1.5–$1.6B FCF and double-digit EPS growth potential.

Amcor plc is rated a ‘buy' due to attractive valuation, strong dividend yield, and synergy-driven EPS growth. AMCR trades near its 52-week low at a 9.5x forward P/E and offers a 6.9% yield, well below its historical average multiple. Operational synergies from the Berry acquisition are driving EPS growth despite volume softness, with analysts projecting 7–8% annual EPS growth.
On June 11, 2026, Amcor PLC AMCR shares rose 4.6% to a current price of $39.92. This performance comes in the context of a 52-week range between $36.25 and $50.94, indicating some volatility in the stock price over the past year.
GF Value™ verdict: Current price of $39.92 is 18.7% below the GF Value™ estimate of $49.10.GF Score™ is 78/100, indicating an above-average potential for long-term returns.Notable signal: There have been no insider transactions in the last 3 months. Is AMCR Overvalued or Undervalued? The current price of Amcor PLC AMCR at $39.92 is significantly below the GF Value™ estimate of $49.10, which suggests that the stock is undervalued by approximately 18.7%. This discrepancy indicates a potential opportunity for investors, as the stock is trading at a price that may not fully reflect the company’s intrinsic value. The GF Valuation label categorizes the stock as "Modestly Undervalued," reinforcing the notion that there could be a margin of safety for potential investors.
GF Value™ is GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value, calculated from historical trading multiples, past business growth, and future performance estimates. While a modest undervaluation suggests room for price appreciation, it is essential to consider that market conditions and company performance can fluctuate, presenting risks that need to be evaluated.
How Does AMCR's Valuation Compare to Its History? MetricCurrentHistorical P/E (TTM)27.5x20.0x (5-Year Median) Forward P/E9.2xN/A The current P/E (TTM) ratio of 27.5x is significantly higher than its 5-year median P/E of 20.0x, indicating that the stock is trading at a premium compared to its historical valuation. However, the forward P/E of 9.2x suggests that analysts anticipate improved earnings in the near future. This P/E analysis aligns with the GF Value™ verdict, indicating that while the stock may appear overvalued based on historical earnings, the potential for future growth could justify the higher multiple.

MetricRating GF Score™78/100 Financial Strength4/10 Profitability7/10 Growth7/10 Valuation8/10 Momentum4/10 Amcor's GF Score™ of 78/100 indicates a strong potential for long-term appreciation, with particularly notable strengths in Profitability (7/10) and Valuation (8/10). However, the Financial Strength rating of 4/10 and Momentum rating of 4/10 suggest areas of concern that may require further scrutiny. Investors should consider these factors when evaluating the overall stability and growth prospects of the company.
What Are Insiders Doing with AMCR Stock? In the last three months, there have been no insider transactions reported for Amcor PLC AMCR . The absence of insider trading activity may indicate a neutral sentiment among executives regarding the stock’s future performance. Typically, active buying by insiders can signal confidence in the company’s prospects, while selling can raise red flags. The lack of transactions suggests that insiders may not see immediate short-term movements either way.
What This Means for Investors Based on the GF Value™ assessment, Amcor PLC AMCR appears to be undervalued at its current price of $39.92, presenting a potential opportunity for investors. However, caution is warranted given the mixed signals from P/E ratios and insider activity. Understanding these nuances is essential for making informed investment decisions.

FREMONT, CA / ACCESS Newswire / April 16, 2026 / Aehr Test Systems (NASDAQ:AEHR), a leading provider of test and burn-in solutions for semiconductor devices used in artificial intelligence (AI), silicon photonics, data center, automotive, and industrial applications, today announced it has received a record $41 million follow-on production order from its lead hyperscale customer for package-level burn-in (PLBI) of custom AI processor ASICs. The order is the largest in Aehr's history and supports high-volume production burn-in of ASICs used in data center training and inference AI workloads.
The order includes a large quantity of Aehr's Sonoma™ high-power package-level test and burn-in systems, along with fully turnkey burn-in modules (BIMs) and device-specific sockets - the consumables required to configure the Sonoma systems for the customer's specific AI processor. Deliveries under the order are expected to begin in Aehr's fiscal 2027, which starts on June 27, 2026.
"This $41 million follow-on order from our lead hyperscale package-level burn-in customer brings our bookings in the second half of our fiscal year to more than $92 million to date with six weeks remaining in the fourth quarter and a strong pipeline of forecasted customer orders in place," said Gayn Erickson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Aehr Test Systems. "This order further validates our Sonoma platform for high-volume production burn-in of very-high-power AI processor ASICs. Our Sonoma systems first entered production with this customer last year, and this new order reflects their continued ramp in capacity for current-generation devices.
"This customer is also developing a significantly higher-power AI accelerator ASIC expected to move to production later this year, and they have already placed an initial order with us for multiple Sonoma systems to be used for production for that device. As these next-generation devices move into volume production, we see the potential for further substantial increases in demand for Sonoma systems and consumables in our next fiscal year.
"Hyperscale cloud providers are increasingly designing custom AI accelerator ASICs to optimize performance, power efficiency, and total cost of ownership for large-scale AI training and inference workloads. Industry analysts project that shipments of hyperscale-designed AI processors will grow at a compound annual growth rate exceeding 30% through 2030, driven by the rapid adoption of generative AI, large language models, and AI-enabled services across cloud computing, enterprise, and consumer applications. As AI processor power levels and integration complexity continue to increase, Aehr believes demand for high-power production burn-in solutions will scale accordingly, expanding the market opportunity for Aehr's Sonoma platform.
"With this order, Aehr has now booked over $92 million in orders in the second half of this fiscal year, already exceeding our recently increased expectations, which we provided last week, for bookings on the high side of $60 million to $80 million during this period. We also have significant additional customer demand forecasted over the next few months across multiple markets, including AI processor wafer-level and packaged-part production burn-in, silicon photonics wafer-level burn-in, and silicon carbide and gallium nitride power semiconductor wafer-level production burn-in, and we expect a portion of this demand to convert into bookings before the end of this fiscal year. These bookings, together with the growing number and breadth of customer engagements across these market segments, as well as flash and high bandwidth memory, give us improved visibility and increased confidence in significant revenue growth in fiscal 2027 and beyond.
"To support growing customer demand, Aehr recently completed a significant facility expansion, adding power, cooling infrastructure, and clean-room manufacturing space in our Fremont, California facility. In addition, this quarter we will begin shipping Sonoma systems from a newly upgraded contract manufacturing facility, with capacity for more than 20 additional systems per month. These upgrades meaningfully increase our production capacity and allow us to support very significant growth in shipments of both our Sonoma package-level and FOX™ wafer-level test and burn-in systems, as well as the associated consumables."

What's next for Aehr? Aehr stock has been red hot this year as new contract wins have continued to strengthen the company's backlog outlook. With a market capitalization of roughly $2.6 billion, the company is now valued at approximately 53 times this year's expected sales. While that growth-dependent valuation suggests that Aehr stock is a risky play, the company's rapidly expanding backlog suggests the business could continue to serve up wins in conjunction with growth for ASICs and other AI chips.

Fariba Danesh, Director of Aehr Test Systems, Inc. (AEHR +7.74%), disclosed the exercise of 8,000 stock options with immediate sale of the underlying shares on April 16, 2026, as reported in the SEC Form 4 filing.
Transaction summaryMetricValueShares sold (direct)8,000Transaction value~$661KPost-transaction shares (direct)13,143Post-transaction value (direct ownership)~$1.09 millionTransaction and post-transaction values based on SEC Form 4 weighted average purchase price ($82.63).
Key questionsWhat is the significance of the option exercise and immediate sale structure?
This transaction reflects the exercise of 8,000 options with a same-day disposition of the acquired shares, indicating the sale was likely driven by expiring awards and liquidity needs rather than accumulation or a directional view on the underlying stock.How does this trade compare to Danesh's historical cadence and trade capacity?
Since July of last year, Danesh has made two open-market sales with a mean size of 9,500 shares; the current transaction is in line with this cadence, but the declining direct holdings (now 13,143 shares) suggest capacity constraints will limit future trade sizes unless new awards are granted.What is the impact on overall ownership and remaining exposure?
Following this sale, Danesh retains direct ownership of 13,143 shares (~$1.09 million as of April 16, 2026), with no indirect holdings, representing a 0.04% ownership stake in the company on a post-transaction basis.How does the transaction value relate to recent market prices and stock performance?
The shares were sold at a weighted average price around $82.63 per share, with the stock up 890.8% year-over-year as of April 16, 2026, suggesting the sale captured substantial gains realized during a period of pronounced share price appreciation.Company overviewMetricValuePrice (as of market close 4/16/26)$80.85Market capitalization$2.64 billionRevenue (TTM)$45.26 million1-year price change*890.8%* 1-year price change calculated using April 16th, 2026 as the reference date.
Company snapshotAehr Test Systems provides test and burn-in systems for logic, optical, and memory integrated circuits, including the ABTS and FOX-P families, WaferPak contactors, and DiePak carriers.It generates revenue by selling proprietary test equipment and consumables to semiconductor manufacturers, supporting both production and qualification testing of advanced ICs.The company serves global semiconductor manufacturers, targeting customers requiring high-reliability testing for logic, memory, photonics, and system-on-chip devices.Aehr Test Systems is a specialized provider of advanced test and burn-in solutions for the semiconductor industry, leveraging proprietary technologies to address the reliability and performance needs of integrated circuit manufacturers.
The company’s scalable systems support a range of device types, enabling customers to efficiently qualify and test complex chips at wafer and package level. Aehr’s focus on full-wafer and die-level testing positions it as a key partner for semiconductor firms seeking to ensure product quality in high-growth markets.
What this transaction means for investorsThe April 16 sale of Aehr Test Systems stock by Board of Directors member Fariba Danesh is not necessarily a warning sign for investors. Her sale involved restricted stock units (RSUs) that were set to expire in 2028, so she could have been taking advantage of Aehr’s sharp share price increase to exercise the RSUs.
Aehr’s stock soared to a 52-week high of $91.43 on the day Danesh sold her shares. The reason for the increase was the company’s announcement that day of a $41 million order from an AI hyperscale customer, the largest production order in Aehr’s history.
The rise of artificial intelligence has led to massive global demand for the semiconductor components that Aehr’s equipment tests for quality. As a result, the company’s business is seeing strong bookings. However, this has yet to translate into revenue with $10.3 million in sales for its fiscal third quarter ended Feb. 27, down from the prior year’s $18.3 million.
That’s why the announcement of an order from an AI hyperscaler excited investors, as it suggests sales could start to rise. But as a result, Aehr’s stock valuation is at a high point for the past year with a lofty price-to-sales ratio exceeding 55. This suggests now is a good time to sell, but not to buy.

Driving Aehr’s success is the company’s accelerating demand from artificial intelligence (AI) customers. Aehr’s two most important products are its Sonoma and FOX-XP systems. These machines expose AI chips or wafers to extreme conditions, stress-testing them to prevent faulty products from entering data centers. With companies spending billions of dollars a year on the AI infrastructure build-out, Aehr's machines are helping protect these investments.

After receiving a string of orders, Aehr just added its biggest one yet.
Hyperscaler Re-Ups on Sonoma With Record $41 Million OrderIn mid-April, Aehr said it had received a record $41 million production order from its lead hyperscale customer. According to the company, “The order is the largest in Aehr’s history." This order is for the firm’s Sonoma systems. Sonoma tests chips after packaging, while FOX-XP tests at the earlier wafer level.
This customer will use Sonoma to test its current-generation AI processor application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs). AI processor ASICs are also often referred to as “custom silicon" or XPUs. Companies like Broadcom NASDAQ: AVGO and Marvell Technology NASDAQ: MRVL co-develop these types of chips with massive hyperscalers like Meta Platforms NASDAQ: META or Amazon.com NASDAQ: AMZN. Evoking these names aims to provide investors with a reference point, not to speculate on who Aehr’s customers may be.
Importantly, this is another follow-on order for the customer’s current generation chip testing needs. Aehr made similar announcements back in both July 2025 and August 2025. Notably, Aehr did not specify the size of these orders, suggesting they were more modest in scale.
This indicates that Aehr’s customer has found significant value in the Sonoma systems, causing them to keep coming back for more. Additionally, the customer appears to have significantly increased their commitment to Sonoma, resulting in the firm's largest order ever. This is yet another sign of Aehr validating its competitive position within the AI infrastructure landscape.
Aehr’s Orders Shoot to Over $90 Million, Far Above Previous EstimatesNow, Aehr has blown past its order forecasts. Previously, the company had expected to generate orders between $60 million and $80 million in the second half of its fiscal year 2026 (H2 FY2026). There are now approximately five weeks left in Aehr’s FY2026, as its fiscal reporting period is several quarters ahead of the calendar year period.

With its latest announcement, the company’s H2 FY2026 orders have risen to over $92 million. That is approximately 31% higher than the midpoint of its past guidance. Given the rapid pace at which Aehr has been announcing orders, this figure could move even higher.
Aehr is also working with this customer on its next-generation AI processor ASIC. It received an initial order to provide Sonoma systems for this device in February. Aehr expects this next-generation chip to move into production at some point in calendar year 2026.
Notably, the company says, “As these next-generation devices move into volume production, we see the potential for further substantial increases in demand for Sonoma systems and consumables in our next fiscal year.” Given the repeat orders that Aehr has received for the current-generation device, it would not be overly surprising to see this continue with the next-generation device.
Aehr is generating orders and interest from customers involved in a variety of data center components. This includes the aforementioned hyperscaler and a silicon photonics customer. Silicon photonics is a networking technology that enables different data center components to communicate.
Aehr also says it is engaging with potential customers that provide flash memory and high-bandwidth memory. Flash memory players include firms like SanDisk NASDAQ: SNDK, while Micron Technology NASDAQ: MU is a notable name in high-bandwidth memory. Again, this is simply for investors' reference, not a suggestion that Aehr has engaged with these specific companies.
Aehr Issues Shares, Adding Tens of Millions to Its Balance SheetInterestingly, Aehr has recently issued a significant number of shares, generating gross proceeds of $60 million. Although this is dilutive to shareholders, it will dramatically improve Aehr’s cash position. The company’s cash and equivalents were approximately $36.9 million at the end of its latest quarter.
For a company like Aehr that is seeing its demand inflect, this is largely a positive sign. It suggests that Aehr needs extra cash to expand production capacity and deliver the products that customers have ordered. Adding capacity can also help the company serve future orders it may receive.

Rhea J. Posedel, a member of the Board of Directors and the founder of Aehr Test Systems (AEHR +7.74%), reported the open-market sale of 17,719 shares of common stock for approximately ~$1.77 million, according to the SEC Form 4 filing.

Key questionsHow does this transaction compare to Posedel’s historical trade sizes and cadence?
This sale of 17,719 shares is below the historical average sell-only trade size of 25,063 shares but aligns with a pattern of regular disposals over the past year as available holdings have declined.What was the impact of this transaction on Posedel’s ownership structure?
45,261 shares were held directly and 396,375 shares held indirectly via trust after the transaction, with direct holdings now representing 0.14% of the company’s outstanding shares as of the transaction date.Was the transaction executed at a premium or discount to recent market prices?
The weighted average sale price of around $99.83 per share was approximately 2.5% above the April 22, 2026 closing price of $97.36, indicating execution within the daily trading range.Does the transaction indicate a shift in Posedel’s disposition strategy or reflect limited remaining share capacity?
Recent sales have become smaller as a function of diminished direct holdings, suggesting the reduced volume is primarily driven by declining available share capacity rather than a change in disposition approach.Company overviewMetricValueRevenue (TTM)$45.26 millionNet income (TTM)($11.42 million)Employees1151-year price change1,076%* 1-year price change calculated using April 22nd, 2026 as the reference date.
Company snapshotAehr Test Systems offers test and burn-in systems for logic, optical, and memory integrated circuits, including the ABTS and FOX-P product families, WaferPak and DiePak solutions.The company generates revenue by selling advanced semiconductor test equipment and related services to integrated circuit manufacturers.Primary customers are global semiconductor manufacturers requiring high-reliability testing for memory, logic, and photonic devices.Aehr Test Systems focuses on providing advanced test and burn-in solutions for the semiconductor industry, enabling customers to ensure the reliability and performance of integrated circuits.
The company leverages proprietary technologies such as full wafer probe cards and reusable test carriers to address the needs of high-volume and high-complexity device manufacturers. Its specialized product suite and targeted customer base position Aehr Test Systems as a niche provider in the semiconductor equipment market.
What this transaction means for investorsAehr Test Systems founder and Board of Directors member Rhea Posedel’s April 22 sale of company stock is understandable given the massive increase in share price. The April 16 announcement of a record $41 million order from an AI hyperscale customer propelled shares to a 52-week high of $102.48 on April 24, just days after Posedel’s disposition.
Aehr’s solutions are seeing strong demand because of their application towards testing for artificial intelligence systems. This led to more than $37 million in quarterly bookings in its fiscal third quarter ended Feb. 27.
However, this has not translated into revenue growth yet. In fiscal Q3, sales totaled $10.3 million, down from $18.3 million in the prior year. Investors believe Aehr’s growth in orders will eventually translate into higher sales.
This positive investor outlook led to Aehr stock reaching a sky-high price-to-sales ratio of 64, a multi-year peak. Consequently, now is a good time to sell shares, but those interested in buying should wait for the stock price to drop first.

Momentum investing revolves around the idea of following a stock's recent trend in either direction. In "long context," investors will be essentially be "buying high, but hoping to sell even higher." With this methodology, taking advantage of trends in a stock's price is key; once a stock establishes a course, it is more than likely to continue moving that way. The goal is that once a stock heads down a fixed path, it will lead to timely and profitable trades.
Even though momentum is a popular stock characteristic, it can be tough to define. Debate surrounding which are the best and worst metrics to focus on is lengthy, but the Zacks Momentum Style Score, part of the Zacks Style Scores, helps address this issue for us.
Below, we take a look at Aehr Test Systems (AEHR - Free Report) , which currently has a Momentum Style Score of A. We also discuss some of the main drivers of the Momentum Style Score, like price change and earnings estimate revisions.
It's also important to note that Style Scores work as a complement to the Zacks Rank, our stock rating system that has an impressive track record of outperformance. Aehr Test Systems currently has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy). Our research shows that stocks rated Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) and #2 (Buy) and Style Scores of "A or B" outperform the market over the following one-month period.
You can see the current list of Zacks #1 Rank Stocks here >>>
Set to Beat the Market?Let's discuss some of the components of the Momentum Style Score for AEHR that show why this company shows promise as a solid momentum pick.
Looking at a stock's short-term price activity is a great way to gauge if it has momentum, since this can reflect both the current interest in a stock and if buyers or sellers have the upper hand at the moment. It is also useful to compare a security to its industry, as this can help investors pinpoint the top companies in a particular area.
For AEHR, shares are up 14.37% over the past week while the Zacks Electronics - Measuring Instruments industry is up 8.99% over the same time period. Shares are looking quite well from a longer time frame too, as the monthly price change of 106.59% compares favorably with the industry's 17.62% performance as well.
While any stock can see its price increase, it takes a real winner to consistently beat the market. That is why looking at longer term price metrics -- such as performance over the past three months or year -- can be useful as well. Shares of Aehr Test Systems have increased 243.31% over the past quarter, and have gained 859.09% in the last year. On the other hand, the S&P 500 has only moved 2.81% and 29.8%, respectively.
Investors should also pay attention to AEHR's average 20-day trading volume. Volume is a useful item in many ways, and the 20-day average establishes a good price-to-volume baseline; a rising stock with above average volume is generally a bullish sign, whereas a declining stock on above average volume is typically bearish. AEHR is currently averaging 4,503,757 shares for the last 20 days.
Earnings OutlookThe Zacks Momentum Style Score encompasses many things, including estimate revisions and a stock's price movement. Investors should note that earnings estimates are also significant to the Zacks Rank, and a nice path here can be promising. We have recently been noticing this with AEHR.
Over the past two months, 1 earnings estimate moved higher compared to none lower for the full year. This revision helped boost AEHR's consensus estimate, increasing from -$0.16 to -$0.10 in the past 60 days. Looking at the next fiscal year, 1 estimate has moved upwards while there have been no downward revisions in the same time period.
Bottom LineGiven these factors, it shouldn't be surprising that AEHR is a #2 (Buy) stock and boasts a Momentum Score of A. If you're looking for a fresh pick that's set to soar in the near-term, make sure to keep Aehr Test Systems on your short list.
Shares of Aehr Test Systems (AEHR +7.74%) soared 144.2% in April 2026, according to data from S&P Global Market Intelligence. No, that's not a typo; the semiconductor test equipment maker more than doubled in price last month. Of course, seasoned Aehr investors saw the surge as a natural extension of prevailing trends. As of this writing on May 5, for example, Aehr's stock has gained a staggering 1,004% in 52 weeks.

Mixed earnings, but investors didn't care Big moves have become the routine for Aehr and its investors. There were 21 market days in April. Aehr shares rose at least 5% on 7 of those days, led by a 25.7% increase on April 8. It also fell 5% or more on two occasions.
I won't dive in to explain all 9 of last month's significant price swings. Let's just focus on a handful of big days, looking for repeated patterns.
As it turns out, Aehr's investors aren't exactly craving perfect financials at this point. The company reported Q3 2026 results on April 7, and the numbers weren't that impressive. Net losses were slightly smaller than expected, but $10.3 million in sales fell short of analysts' expectations at $10.8 million. And management simply reiterated existing guidance targets based on Q3 results and current market trends.
Many stocks would fall on news like that, but I already highlighted the following day as the absolute highlight of Aehr's April action. You see, Aehr is collecting orders faster than it can make equipment. The backlog of unfilled orders was worth $38.7 million at the end of the quarter, up from $18.2 million in the year-ago period. That's the fuel for Aehr's fires.
On the earnings call, management highlighted a unique growth driver for the next few quarters. Some of Aehr's tools can be used to burn-in freshly manufactured semiconductor chips. The process weeds out manufacturing problems before they become costly product recalls, and generally extends the useful life of each burnt-in chip. Most chipmakers haven't made burn-in a standard part of their manufacturing process yet -- but that's changing.
Burn-in expansion should keep those Aehr system orders coming for a while. Investors are embracing that promising growth vector.

Aehr's backlog keeps getting bigger Aehr didn't have news of its own on most of the good days. The stock tends to rise when the semiconductor sector as a whole is surging, and that was a common theme in April 2026. That being said, Aehr also unveiled the largest order in its history on April 16, with a $41 million follow-on order from an existing hyperscale customer. The order included the Sonoma high-end testing system and several burn-in modules, with revenue-generating shipments expected to start in fiscal year 2027.
Including this order and other deals entered after the end of Q3, Aehr has added more than $92 million to its backlog in the second half of fiscal 2026.
The stock trades at lofty valuation ratios despite very small revenue streams and negative earnings. But I get why Aehr investors are getting excited about the company's explosive order growth. Just make sure you can deal with Aehr's valuation (608x forward earnings isn't for the faint of heart) and execution risks before buying the stock.
Semiconductor stocks have been at the heart of the artificial intelligence (AI) boom. That's because the chips and equipment are necessary to handle the massive computing power needed for AI workloads.
Chipmakers like Nvidia, Broadcom, and AMD, to name a few, have been juggernauts over the past several years, but they have come back to Earth a bit in 2026. For the most part, that's due more to their unsustainably high multiples rather than a slowdown in revenue or earnings.
But some semiconductor stocks have not slowed down at all in 2026. One of them is Aehr Test Systems (AEHR +7.74%). Aehr has obliterated Nvidia, Broadcom, and AMD, along with most other chipmakers, returning 327% so far in 2026.
Is it too late to buy Aehr Test Systems? Let's take a look.

Meet the specialized equipment maker There are a lot of different types of semiconductor stocks that serve different niches within the AI ecosystem -- and not all of them actually make the chips. Aehr, in fact, doesn't make chips; they make the machines and systems to test chips, whether it's chips for EVs, data centers, memory and storage, or whatever.
While there are some major competitors in the space, both in the U.S. and internationally, Aehr is seen as the leader in wafer-level testing -- which is where it tests multiple chips at once on the large wafer, as opposed to individually.

Aehr's two biggest markets are testing for EVs and data centers, but as of late, more of the revenue share is coming from data center testing.
In the most recent quarter, revenue was only about $10 million, and the firm expects about $45 million to $50 million for the fiscal year, which ends May 30.
But it has a growing backlog of contracts that have created bullish sentiment on Wall Street. The company reported $37 million in bookings when it reported fiscal third-quarter earnings in April, along with a backlog of about $51 million, including new bookings.
But a couple of weeks ago, Aehr reported a record $41 million production order from a hyperscaler customer, which brought its bookings up to $92 million.
And there is potential for future orders from this hyperscaler, which is building an AI accelerator.
This news, along with earnings, skyrocketed Aehr's stock price by some 186% since March 30 to over $86 per share.
Is Aehr Test Systems stock a buy? After such a meteoric rise in the past month, is it too late to jump on the rocket ship that is Aehr Test Systems? Yes and no.
Yes, because the company is still operating at a net loss and saw adjusted earnings and revenue shrink in the last quarter. This surge in bookings is great for its long-term prospects, but right now, the stock is way overvalued with a price-to-sales ratio of about 62.
The stock has trended about 11% lower since peaking at a closing high of around $97 per share on April 22. I wouldn't be shocked to see it move even lower as some investors take profits.
Wall Street analysts have a median price target of $67 per share, which would suggest that the price sinks about 24% from its current level.
But over the longer term, about 60% of analysts still see Aehr stock as a buy. That's based on the fact, most likely, that it has a growing backlog of bookings that should lead to increasing growth in the years ahead. Analysts anticipate 71% revenue growth in fiscal 2027 and earnings to increase to $0.15 per share, up from an estimated net loss of $0.09 per share this fiscal year.
Investors may want to tune in to Aehr's fourth-quarter earnings report on July 14 for more information on their outlook for the next fiscal year.
So, Aehr is definitely a stock to buy, but maybe just not right now after such a rocket ride.

Business Highlights for the Fourth Quarter of 2025 and Recent Developments
Progress on EH216-S Commercial Operations in China
EHang expects to officially commence EH216-S commercial operations in China in March 2026. The first two operators with Air Operator Certificate (“OC”) -- EHang General Aviation and Heyi Aviation -- are expected to launch ticketed aerial sightseeing services for the public at EHang Future City, its headquarters in Guangzhou and Luogang Park in Hefei, marking the transition from internal trial run to commercial operations.
Over recent months of internal trial operations, EHang has refined standard operational procedures, maintenance systems, and fleet management processes to support safe and reliable operations as well as smooth user experience. The Civil Aviation Administration of China (“CAAC”) has recognized the safe operational records and continued to support the certified eVTOL operators to initiate public commercial operations by expanding the pool of specially authorized ground operating crew for EHang recently. In parallel, EHang is advancing with the CAAC to establish the ground crew training standard and system for EH216-S. As a trial program, this initiative represents the first-ever training framework for pilotless human-carrying eVTOL aircraft in China, laying a solid foundation for regulatory compliance and talent development ahead of large-scale commercial operations.
EH216-S Completes First Cross-Province Flight Crossing Qiongzhou Strait
In December 2025, the EH216-series pilotless eVTOL successfully completed a 22-kilometer flight across the Qiongzhou Strait from Hainan Province to Guangdong Province. This 18-minute flight route shows a significant efficiency in air mobility, in contrast to a ferry ride which typically takes 60–90 minutes. Powered by the high-energy solid-state lithium battery co-developed with Inx Energy, it showcased point-to-point flight operational capabilities in the complex sea environment and practical applications such as inter-provincial transport, island logistics, and maritime emergency response.
VT35 Launch and Public Demo Flight
In October 2025, EHang unveiled the VT35, a next-generation long-range lift-and-cruise pilotless eVTOL upgraded from the VT30, with a design range of approximately 200 kilometers. The VT35 expands EHang’s product portfolio into intercity mobility scenarios and its compact design is to be compatible with EH216-S vertiports in urban environment.
The VT35 completed its first public demonstration flights in Hefei in December 2025, marking an important milestone in validating its operational capabilities. The aircraft is currently progressing through type certification with the CAAC. To date, it has completed transition flight tests and fixed-wing flight tests and entered the flight envelope performance testing phase to validate overall aircraft performance and system-level capabilities.
EH216-S and GD4.0 Formation Flights Shined at China Spring Festival Gala
EHang performed splendid flight shows with 16 units of EH216-S pilotless eVTOL aircraft and 22,580 units of GD4.0 formation drones at the CMG 2026 China Spring Festival Gala Hefei venue in February 2026. It refreshed the Guinness World Records™ title for "the most multirotor/drones airborne simultaneously from a single computer", demonstrating EHang’s intelligent command-and-control technologies and centralized air management capabilities for large-scale fleet operations.
Global Expansion
Thailand: Building on the AAM Sandbox Initiative launched in October 2025, EHang has conducted a series of EH216-S validation test flights and continuous trial operations within the Thailand AAM Sandbox areas in Bangkok, in coordination with the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand (“CAAT”) and local partners.
With five-month preparation and operational readiness, EHang is expected to obtain the first overseas commercial operation license for EH216-S pilotless eVTOL aircraft after the CAAT’s final approval. It will truly achieve normalized urban air mobility services. Several commercial operation sites are being planned, including the one near IMPACT Challenger in Bangkok, where the ICAO Advanced Air Mobility Symposium will be held in December 2026.
The Sandbox Initiative follows a “prove safety, then scale” approach with the expectation to expand to more locations including Chiang Mai, Phuket and Pattaya with strong demand for airport shuttle service, aerial sightseeing and cross-island travel. It will provide a scalable pathway for scalable eVTOL operations and potential broader adoption across Southeast Asia.
Qatar: In November 2025, the EH216-S conducted multiple trial air taxi flights, including point-to-point and human-carrying flights, in central Doha with operational authorization from the Qatar Civil Aviation Authority and support from the Ministry of Transport of Qatar. The flights connected designated urban locations with notable time saving compared to ground transportation and demonstrated pilotless eVTOL operations in a dense city environment. Japan: In October 2025, the EH216-S completed human-carrying pilotless flights at the Gotemba Premium Outlets near Mount Fuji in collaboration with local partners - Mitsubishi Estate, Mitsubishi Estate-Simon, and AirX. EHang’s eVTOL flight footprint further extended to 18 cities in Japan. Manufacturing
Yunfu Production Facility: Following the completion of the Phase II plant, EHang's Yunfu Production Facility is expanded to 48,000 square meters with the total annual production capability increase to 1,000 eVTOL units and components. The Phase II plant has entered trial operations and is engineered to enhance production quality and efficiency by smart manufacturing, featuring a full-process Manufacturing Execution System, paperless operations, Automated Guided Vehicles for automated material calling and delivery, and visual error-proofing systems.Beijing Production Facility: In December, the first EH216-F firefighting eVTOL aircraft rolled off the assembly line at its Low-Altitude Emergency Rescue Equipment Headquarters in Fangshan District, Beijing. This milestone marked the initial operational readiness of the facility for emergency rescue aircraft assembly, following a year of strategic cooperation with the local government. Management Remarks
Mr. Huazhi Hu, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of EHang: “2025 was a pivotal year for EHang as we solidified our commercial foundation and achieved critical breakthroughs.

Total revenues reached RMB243.8 million, up 48.4% year-over-year and 163.6% sequentially, driven by record deliveries. Gross margin remained strong at 62.1%, while operating leverage improved significantly as we achieved our first-ever GAAP profitable quarter and generated substantial growth in adjusted operating income and adjusted net income.
For the full year 2025, we generated record revenues of RMB509.5 million, while maintaining non-GAAP profitability1 for the second consecutive year. As commercialization advances in China and overseas markets, we believe EHang is well positioned to further scale production, expand operations, and strengthen the financial profile of the business over time.”

The year-over-year increase was mainly attributed to increased employee compensation driven by workforce expansion. The quarter-over-quarter increase was mainly attributable to increased professional service fees for general corporate functions.Research and development expenses were RMB49.1 million (US$7.0 million), compared with RMB56.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, and on par with RMB50.6 million in the third quarter of 2025. The year-over-year decrease was mainly attributed to lower share-based compensation expenses due to accelerated vesting of outstanding share-based awards in the fourth quarter of 2024. Operating loss
Operating loss was RMB6.6 million (US$0.9 million), a significant improvement from RMB56.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 and RMB91.7 million in the third quarter of 2025.

Net income per ordinary share and per ADS
Basic and diluted net income per ordinary share were both RMB0.07 (US$0.01).
Basic and diluted net income per American depositary share (“ADS”) were both RMB0.14 (US$0.02). Each ADS represents two of our Class A ordinary shares.
Balance sheets
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted short-term deposits and short-term investments balances were RMB1.13 billion (US$161.5 million) as of December 31, 2025.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses adjusted operating expenses, adjusted sales and marketing expenses, adjusted general and administrative expenses, adjusted research and development expenses, adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders, adjusted basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per ordinary share and adjusted basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per ADS (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. There was no income tax impact on the Company’s non-GAAP adjustments because the non-GAAP adjustments are usually recorded in entities located in tax-free jurisdictions, such as the Cayman Islands, or such expenses were not deductible.
The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the effects of item of (i) share-based compensation expenses and (ii) certain non-operational expenses, such as provisions for legal proceedings, which are included in their comparable GAAP measures. The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures provide useful information about its operating results, enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by its management in their financial and operational decision-making.
The Non-GAAP Financial Measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Non-GAAP Financial Measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using the Non-GAAP Financial Measures is that they do not reflect all items of expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in the business and are not reflected in the presentation of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures. Further, the Non-GAAP Financial Measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance.
Each of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to its comparable GAAP measure or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or financial results. Investors are encouraged to review the Company’s most directly comparable GAAP measures in conjunction with the Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The Non-GAAP Financial Measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company’s data. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
For more information on the Non-GAAP Financial Measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” set forth at the end of this press release.
