•Gross Margin Improves 400 Basis Points to 47.5% vs. 43.5% LY Reinforcing Company’s Long-Standing Commitment to Domestic Manufacturing

•First quarter shareholder returns reach $4.4 million, including buybacks and dividends

TORRANCE, CALIFORNIA, JUNE 6, 2025 (Globe Newswire) — Virco Mfg. Corporation (NASDAQ: VIRC), a leading manufacturer and direct supplier of moveable furniture and equipment for educational environments and public spaces in the United States, reported a modest profit despite slowing demand during the Company’s first quarter ended April 30, 2025. Through three months, net income was $0.7 million versus $2.1 million for the comparable period last year. Last year’s first quarter was positively impacted by a very large, counter-seasonal disaster recovery order. Because the Company’s business is highly seasonal, with operating losses typical in the seasonally light first and fourth quarters, unusual orders like the one last year can have a disproportionate impact. Underlying demand unrelated to disaster recovery is also slowing somewhat, but to a lesser degree than the headline year-over-year comparison might suggest. Management believes that underlying demand is within normal parameters for multi-year, election-related bond cycles.

Despite the reduction in revenue, gross margin for the first quarter improved from 43.5% of sales to 47.5%. This improvement was due primarily to the relatively lower margins on last year’s disaster recovery order, but was also positively influenced by a higher proportion of orders requiring full service. Because the Company manufactures the majority of its products domestically, Management believes tariffs are unlikely to have significant impacts on gross margins going forward. Perhaps more importantly, the Company is confident in its ability to perform timely peak-season deliveries despite headline supply chain disruptions in other markets.

Following two successive years of strong profitability, the Company is directing its cash toward the financing of seasonal inventories and accounts receivable as well as open-market share repurchases and major capital equipment. In the first quarter inclusive of February through April, 2025, the Company repurchased $4.0 million worth of shares and distributed $0.4 million of cash dividends. On June 3, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend for the Company’s second fiscal quarter of $0.025 on each outstanding share of common stock. The dividend is payable on July 11, 2025 to stockholders of record of the common stock as of the close of business on June 20, 2025. Furthermore, the Company invested more than $2.0 million on major “platform processes” for its factories. These platforms expand the Company’s range of operations and bridge multiple product lines, providing highly controllable operating leverage. Investments of this type may also support domestically-driven expansion into adjacent markets, where new opportunities are emerging as a result of recent changes in global trade.

Chairman and CEO Robert Virtue commented on the first quarter and the prospect looking forward: “Having been through a number of cycles during our 75-year history, we knew that it would be a challenge to match last year’s disaster recovery order. We also believed that thoughtful deployment of those profits would position us to take advantage of similar opportunities should they develop again.

“This includes several things. First, it requires a team with the skills and experience to evaluate, install, and operate actual fabrication and manufacturing equipment. This is why we continue to invest in the training and continuity of our employees, which we consider Virco’s greatest asset. Second, it requires the liquidity to finance very large receivables and the inventories that support them. Third, it may demand rapid deployment of new technologies, for production, service, distribution, and their integration. We are maintaining this opportunistic stance and we look forward to successfully navigating whatever challenges and opportunities may develop this year and next.

“Regarding the business cycle, this current year looks like it will represent a “pause” in the recent rapid recovery of the school furniture market following COVID school closures. But we see hopeful signs in the mid-term school bond environment and look forward to supporting renewed growth in school construction as families and communities continue to invest in their futures.”
