AMITYVILLE, N.Y., Nov. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — NAPCO Security Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: NSSC), one of the leading manufacturers and designers of high-tech electronic security equipment, wireless communication devices for intrusion and fire alarm systems and the related recurring service revenues as well as a provider of school safety solutions, today announced financial results for its first quarter of fiscal year 2027. Results are reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and are also reported adjusting for certain items (“Non-GAAP”). A reconciliation between GAAP and Non-GAAP operating results is provided at the end of this press release.
First Quarter 2027 Financial Results as Compared to First Quarter 2026
Net revenue increased 1.7% to a First Quarter record $50.0 millionRecurring service revenue (“RSR”) increased 11.5% to a Quarterly record $26.1 million, with over 90% gross marginRSR has a prospective annual run rate of approximately $106 million based on October 2026 recurring service revenuesEquipment revenue decreased 7.3% to $23.9 millionGross profit margin increased to 58.7.% vs 56.6% in prior fiscal year quarterNet Income increased 6.9% YoY to a First Quarter record $13.0 millionDiluted Net Income per share increased 5.9% to $0.36Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA increased 3.8% to a First Quarter record $15.5 million with an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 31.0%, compared to $14.9 million with an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 30.4% in the prior fiscal year quarterThe board declared a quarterly dividend of $.17 per share, payable on January 4, 2027, to shareholders of record on December 14, 2026.
Kevin Buchel, CEO and President, commented, “Our Fiscal Q1 performance reflects continued positive financial results. We achieved record Q1 revenue of $50.0 million and record Q1 Adjusted EBITDA of $15.5 million, which was bolstered by our recurring service revenue. Our RSR continues to deliver gross margins of over 90% and has a prospective run rate of approximately $106 million, a $3 million increase from the run rate we reported in July 2026. While equipment revenue declined year-over-year, the decrease was driven by two locking distributors reducing their purchases during the quarter. Importantly, sell-through at both distributors grew year-over-year and strengthened meaningfully on a sequential basis. We view sell-through as the truest indicator of end-market demand, and these trends reinforce our confidence in the underlying health of the business.
We are pleased to continue our dividend program of which the quarterly dividend will be $0.17 per share, which will be paid on January 4, 2027, to shareholders of record on December 14, 2026.”

*Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define non-GAAP net income as GAAP net income plus litigation settlement costs. We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income plus income tax expense, less net interest income (expense), stock-based compensation, non-recurring legal expenses, litigation settlement costs, and depreciation and amortization expenses. Non-GAAP net income margin is non-GAAP net income divided by revenue. Adjusted EBITDA margin is Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance the user’s overall understanding of our financial performance. By excluding these charges our non-GAAP results provide information to management and investors that is useful in assessing NAPCO’s core operating performance and in comparing our results of operations on a consistent basis from period to period. Our use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations in that such non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly comparable to those reported by other companies. For example, the terms used in this press release, such as Adjusted EBITDA, do not have a standardized meaning. Other companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide investors with a comparable view of our performance in relation to other companies. The presentation of this information is not meant to be a substitute for the corresponding financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures set forth above.

November 13, 2026By
SHENZHEN, China, Nov. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — At the 2026 Tencent Global Digital Ecosystem Summit, Tencent Cloud, the cloud business of global technology company Tencent, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Teleport, Capital A’s logistics venture and leading Southeast Asian eCommerce logistics specialist. Under the MOU, Tencent Cloud will provide the cloud infrastructure for Teleport’s operations in China, while Teleport will leverage Tencent Cloud’s artificial intelligence (AI) to build smarter, more automated logistics operations for cross-border movement from China.
The Teleport Network: Built for Cross-Border eCommerce
Teleport moves eCommerce and cargo on Southeast Asia’s largest air network, moving up to 1.25 million parcels a day across the Teleport Network, connecting China, Southeast Asia, Oceania and the Middle East by leveraging the freighter and belly capacity of over 55 airline partners. Operating at this scale demands seamless orchestration, which begins with ensuring every single parcel moves with verified, accurate data. The partnership with Tencent Cloud anchors shipment data on a reliable digital foundation from the first mile and ensures every subsequent process from customs clearance to mid-mile multi-airline transfers runs on timely, accurate information.
Supporting the Next Phase of Growth for Cross-Border Logistics
As global cross-border e-commerce accelerates, managing operational complexity requires moving beyond passively monitoring shipments. Backed by deep ecosystem experience in China and across global markets, the partnership with Tencent Cloud will make it easier for Chinese marketplaces, shippers and regional partners to integrate and collaborate seamlessly. This establishes a unified, single source of truth across the supply chain, giving Teleport, its airline partners and its eCommerce customers identical real-time tracking from origin to destination.
Accelerating AI Adoption Across Logistics Operations
Building on this Cloud data foundation, Teleport is exploring a suite of Tencent Cloud AI solutions to advance operational efficiency.
Tencent Cloud Agent Development Platform (ADP): Enables Teleport to build and deploy purpose-built AI agents across core operational workflows, including automated route optimisation, customs document processing, dynamic capacity planning, and real-time disruption recovery.TokenHub: Provides flexible access to different AI models, helping Teleport balance capability, responsiveness and cost efficiency across AI applications.WorkBuddy: Enhances internal operations and knowledge access through multi-agent workflows, enabling teams to collaborate more efficiently.eKYC & identity verification: Strengthens verification and onboarding workflows for cross-border merchants, air cargo partners, and ground handling agents, reinforcing compliance and security across the network.
Poshu Yeung, Senior Vice President of Tencent Cloud and Head of Tencent Cloud International, said: “As cross-border commerce continues to create new opportunities across Asia and beyond, logistics providers are increasingly looking for technologies that can help improve efficiency, strengthen resilience and support growth across multiple markets. Through our collaboration with Teleport, we are combining Tencent Cloud’s infrastructure and AI capabilities with Teleport’s logistics expertise to help move the Teleport Network beyond visibility towards intelligent decision-making and execution, enabling greater operational agility across its cross-border logistics network.”
Milan Dhingra, Chief Product Technology Officer of Teleport, said: “Teleport will always be a physical air logistics business, but we run digital first. Therefore it is key that we work with the right partners in the right market where mission critical cargo data need to flow, where their expertise is unmatched. China has its own digital ecosystem and we wanted a partner that understands Teleport’s vision for seamless orchestration and intelligence while being purpose-built for local requirements. Tencent Cloud is that partner for us in China.”
Making the Teleport Network Smarter
This strategic collaboration reflects a shared commitment to advance the development of cross-border logistics through cloud and AI technologies. By pairing Teleport’s logistics expertise with Tencent Cloud’s infrastructure and AI capabilities, both companies aim to turn operational data into real-time, actionable intelligence across the Teleport Network enabling reliable, scalable eCommerce movement across the region.

HONG KONG, Nov. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Forbes, the global business magazine, has named Biel Crystal to its “2025 Forbes China Novel Intelligent Economy Selection,” citing the company’s deep implementation and innovation breakthroughs in smart manufacturing and industrial large models.
Biel Crystal, a leading global provider of exterior structural components and module solutions for smart devices, operates nine smart manufacturing bases worldwide. It has more than 100,000 employees and annual capacity of more than 2.5 billion units. The company has fully deployed industrial AI large models using an architecture purpose-built for industrial scenarios, embedding industrial characteristics at the foundation and spanning R&D and design, manufacturing, finished-product inspection, operations management and maintenance services.
The most representative applications are in three industrial scenarios: production, R&D and quality inspection. In production, Biel Crystal has more tightly integrated machine learning with industrial simulation to enable automatic, dynamic optimization of coating machine parameters and automatic tool compensation for CNC machine tools, improving overall efficiency by at least 10%. In R&D, coordinated use of structural, fluid/thermal, motion and electromagnetic simulations allows product designs to identify and resolve more than 80% of potential problems during the R&D stage, cutting R&D cycles by 30% to 50% and reducing physical prototypes by more than 60%. In quality inspection, its self-developed automated optical inspection (AOI) technology combines multimodal inspection, few-shot learning and millisecond-level real-time feedback, lowering the missed-detection rate to 0.05% and reducing manual re-inspection workload by 50%.
Notably, Biel Crystal did not rely on general-purpose large models. Instead, it adopted an architecture purpose-built for industrial scenarios, embedding industry’s stringent requirements for real-time performance, determinism and reliability into model design from the ground up. The company says this ensures the models are “usable, stable and precise” on production lines and drives manufacturing from “single-point automation” toward “plant-wide intelligence.”
