Kimball Electronics Reports Q4 Earnings with Mixed Performance Across Segments
Kimball Electronics (KE) posted $371.6 million in net sales during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, a slight year-over-year decline but an improvement from the third quarter. The company's full-year revenue reached $1.431 billion with notable growth in its Medical segment when excluding prior consigned inventory effects. Adjusted operating income for Q4 was $18.1 million (4.9% of net sales), down slightly compared to the same period last year, while gross margin improved by 90 basis points due to a better product mix. The company reported an adjusted diluted EPS loss of -$0.01 in Q4 driven by a high effective tax rate. Kimball expects fiscal 2027 revenue between $1.535 billion and $1.560 billion, with organic growth targets set at 3% to 5%. The acquisition of Helvoet Polymer Technologies is expected to contribute around $60 million in sales next year.
