(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq)

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., Jan. 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NVE Corporation (Nasdaq: NVEC) announced today financial results for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2022.
Total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 increased 18% to $7.40 million from $6.29 million for the prior-year quarter. The increase was due to a 22% increase in product sales, partially offset by a 46% decrease in contract research and development revenue. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 increased 22% to $4.23 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, compared to $3.47 million, or $0.72 per share, for the prior-year quarter.
For the first nine months of fiscal 2023, total revenue increased 26% to $25.5 million from $20.3 million for the first nine months of the prior year. The increase was due to a 27% increase in product sales, partially offset by a 13% decrease in contract research and development revenue. Net income increased 35% to $14.5 million, or $2.99 per diluted share, from $10.7 million, or $2.21 per share, for the first nine months of fiscal 2022.
The company also announced a quarterly cash dividend to shareholders of $1.00 per share of common stock, payable February 28, 2023 to shareholders of record as of January 30, 2023.
