TAT Technologies Reports First Quarter 2026 Results, Backlog and Long-Term Agreements Increase to ~$580 Million on Strong Demand

Published

on

CHARLOTTE, N.C., May 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TAT Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: TATT) (TASE: TATT)  (“TAT” or the “Company”) a leading provider of products and services to the commercial and military aerospace and ground defense industries, today reported its unaudited results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026.

Financial highlights for the first quarter of 2026:

Revenues were $41.1 million; a slight decrease of 2.4% compared to $42.1 million in the first quarter of 2025, driven primarily by component part shortages and delayed deliveries from certain OEM suppliers.Gross profit remained stable at $10.0 million. Gross margin improved by 80 basis points to 24.4% of revenues, compared to 23.6% of revenues in the first quarter of 2025.Operating income was $3.0 million, a decrease from $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2025, reflecting a margin of 7.3% versus 9.9% in the first quarter of 2025.Net income totaled $3.4 million, a slight decrease compared to $3.8 million in the first quarter of 2025.Adjusted EBITDA was $4.9 million, representing 11.8% of revenues, a decrease from $5.7 million representing 13.6% of revenues in the first quarter of 2025.Operating cash flow for the quarter was positive $1.9 million compared to negative $(5.0) million used in operating activities in the first quarter of 2025, reflecting a significant improvement in cash generation.

Mr. Igal Zamir, TAT’s CEO and President, commented: “TAT Technologies entered 2026 with a robust operational foundation, and the record customer demand in the first quarter reinforced our confidence in the trajectory we are on. Demand for our services has never been stronger, and the value of our long-term agreements and backlog reached an all-time high, growing to approximately $580 million at the end of Q1, reflecting new contract wins and exceptionally strong customer intake across all four of our service lines.”

As opposed to this  strong momentum entering the year, and as previously communicated, we experienced some supply chain disruptions that affected the results of the first quarter. These distruptions were triggered by certain OEM suppliers, leading to delays in finish goods and deliveries. Primarily as a result of these delays, our revenue slightly declined YoY, not fully utilizing our growing backlog. We expect this obstacle to be resolved in the next few months, allowing TAT the continued growth trajectory we started last year. 

“As we look ahead through the rest of 2026, we are confident in the fundamentals of the business. Demand is at an all-time high and our record backlog provides strong revenue expectations. Subject to the anticipated resolution of our recent supply chain disruptions, we expect our growth trajectory will resume in the second quarter and the second half of the year, driven primarily by stronger demand and record backlog. We remain well-positioned to deliver growth and long-term value for our shareholders,” concluded Mr. Zamir.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company also presents Adjusted EBITDA.  The adjustments to the Company’s GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors with a more complete understanding of the Company’s underlying operational results, trends and performance. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income excluding the impact of: the Company’s share in results of affiliated companies, share-based compensation, taxes on income, financial (expenses) income, net, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, however, should not be considered as an alternative to net income and operating income for the period and may not be indicative of the historic operating results of the Company; nor is it meant to be predictive of potential future results. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies. See reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA below.

TAT Technologies will host an earnings webcast and conference call today, May 20, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss first quarter results. Investors may register using the link below or by visiting the Company’s website.

ATTACK SHARK Redefines Esports Response with MEGA B2, Combining TMR Technology and Rapid Trigger

Published

on

By

NEW YORK, Sept. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — High-performance gaming peripheral brand ATTACK SHARK today launched the MEGA B2, a flagship gaming mouse featuring TMR-based Magnetic Micro-Switch with Rapid Trigger, customizable haptic feedback, dual 8K connectivity, a flagship sensor, and advanced software tuning. Designed for esports players, it delivers enhanced speed, precision, and control.

Breaking Boundaries for a More Adaptive Input Experience

The standout feature of the MEGA B2 is its use of TMR-based Magnetic Micro-Switch supporting Rapid Trigger technology. Unlike traditional mechanical switches that rely on physical contacts, the TMR system detects button movement through magnetic sensing, enabling actuation distances adjustable down to 0.1mm. With Rapid Trigger, button activation and reset points can respond dynamically to movement, allowing faster repeated inputs without waiting for a fixed reset distance. Combined with adjustable trigger sensitivity, players can tailor responsiveness to different games and personal preferences. The contact-free design also helps reduce switch wear associated with long-term mechanical use.

To further enhance control, the MEGA B2 integrates linear motor haptic feedback into both primary buttons, allowing users to independently adjust trigger sensitivity and tactile feedback intensity.

The mouse is powered by a customized PixArt PAW3955MAX sensor, offering 1-60,000 DPI adjustment, 1-DPI increments, 20,000 FPS, 850 IPS, and 75G acceleration. The sensor is designed to provide reliable tracking during high-speed flicks, low-sensitivity gameplay, and large mouse movements commonly found in competitive shooters and other esports titles.

The flagship Nordic 54LM20 MCU further supports stable performance, efficient processing, and optimized power consumption, helping balance responsiveness with battery life in competitive gaming environments.

Built for High-Speed Competitive Play

The MEGA B2 supports both wired and wireless 8,000Hz polling rates, enabling high-frequency input reporting across connection modes. It is paired with ATTACK SHARK’s shark-fin-inspired 8K receiver, featuring an extended antenna for improved signal performance and LED indicators displaying connection status, polling rate, and battery life.

Weighing just 63±3g, the mouse combines lightweight performance with a reinforced button-module frame designed to improve structural stability and maintain a consistent click feel during extended use.

Customization is available through both a web-based driver and PC software. In addition to standard settings such as DPI, button assignments, and polling rates, users can adjust virtual sensor offset to better match different grip styles, movement patterns, and aiming preferences.

Additional features include a 300mAh high-density battery delivering up to 360 hours of battery life at 1,000Hz polling rate, a high-density injection-molded structure, a cooling glass-like surface coating, and a TTC Gold Wheel encoder for crisp and reliable scrolling feedback.

Driving Innovation Through Competitive Gaming

The launch follows ATTACK SHARK’s recent partnership with Cloud9’s League of Legends team, further strengthening the brand’s connection with professional esports. Through closer engagement with competitive players, ATTACK SHARK continues to gain insights into the demands of high-level gameplay and apply them to product development.

MEGA B2 is a product of that ongoing pursuit. By combining TMR-based Magnetic Micro-Switch with Rapid Trigger technology, it brings a new level of responsiveness and customization to gaming mice while extending magnetic sensing technology beyond keyboards. Trusted by more than 10 million users globally, ATTACK SHARK continues to make professional-grade gaming technology more accessible.

Reap and Visa Collaborate to Launch Stablecoin Card Programs Across 100+ Markets

Published

on

By

This collaboration expands Reap’s Visa stablecoin-linked card programs globally.

SINGAPORE, Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Reap, a global financial technology company building stablecoin-enabled infrastructure, and Visa, a global leader in digital payments, today announced a strategic collaboration to bring stablecoin-linked Visa credit card programs to over 100+ markets globally, powered by Reap’s card issuance infrastructure, in compliance with local regulations.

The collaboration will bring Reap’s market-leading Visa credit card issuing infrastructure beyond Asia and Latin America, into EMEA and Africa.

Reap will also become the first fintech in Asia to partner with Visa to enable global stablecoin credit card issuing at scale. Partners can launch and scale globally through Reap’s infrastructure, which provides the card network authorization, card processing, compliance frameworks, and operations so teams can focus on product and growth.

Stablecoin-linked card programs are one of the fastest-growing segments in digital payments. According to Artemis Research, the segment is growing at a 106% compound annual growth rate (CAGR), compared to just 5% for peer-to-peer (P2P) payments, signalling rising demand for infrastructure that bridges digital asset holdings with global merchant acceptance.

“We are excited that Visa is building the stablecoin card category with us in this landmark collaboration from Asia Pacific. What we’ve always wanted is for stablecoins to be as usable and accessible for businesses as any other payment method. We’re proud to collaborate with Visa as our leading go-to-market partner for stablecoin solutions, supporting our international expansion and sharing insights on bringing global card programs to market. Stablecoins opened the door, but the real unlock is the compliant infrastructure pathway that this creates for any company, anywhere in the world, to issue cards and scale through a single partnership.” said Daren Guo, Co-Founder, Reap.

Visa is seeing a $20 billion annual run rate of global stablecoin settlement volume, up 15x year-over-year, with over 160 stablecoin card programs globally. The partnership helps extend Visa’s stablecoin adoption strategy and deepens Visa’s positioning as a hyperscaler, bringing together stablecoins, blockchain and on-chain payments to deliver real world solutions for business.

“Stablecoin-linked card programs are entering a new stage and phase of scale and adoption. The collaboration with Reap reflects the strong momentum we are seeing across the payments ecosystem. Visa is partnering with innovators like Reap to bring trusted and secure payment infrastructure to more markets and use cases, enabling these businesses to move faster while reaching the global acceptance and reliability they need to grow”, said Stephen Karpin, President, Visa Asia Pacific.

Through Reap’s infrastructure, fintechs, businesses, and platforms can offer credit card programs where stablecoins are used to fund and manage spending. Partners can use stablecoins as collateral, enable cardholders to repay balances in stablecoins and support cross-border corporate spending with compliance and program management built in. They can also spend at 175M+ Visa-accepting merchant locations worldwide, which brings the familiarity and global reach of the Visa network to stablecoin-enabled treasury and spend management.

The expanded partnership supports a range of use cases:

Corporate treasury and cross-border spend: Fund credit cards using stablecoins and manage cross-border expenses more efficiently.Global payouts and vendor spend: Enable platforms to support business payments and payouts through a card experience, with stablecoins powering settlement flows.Embedded finance for B2B platforms: Launch branded card programs that integrate stablecoin funding and repayment into existing product experiences.

New settlement and payment pathways

As part of an expanded collaboration, Visa and Reap will explore new settlement and payment pathways, including agentic commerce capabilities. This will include looking at how trusted AI agents can execute authenticated payments within user-defined parameters – ensuring security and compliance remain uncompromised – while laying the groundwork for a new era of programmable, stablecoin-native commerce.

Reap is also a partner for Visa’s stablecoin settlement program in the Asia Pacific region, settling payment obligations with Visa directly using stablecoins. The integration of stablecoin settlement between Reap and Visa unlocks settlement over a blockchain beyond traditional banking hours and weekend delays that have long constrained global card operations. For issuers and card programs, this reduces the need to hold large pre-funded balances. It marks a foundational shift in how modern card networks and their partners manage liquidity at global scale.

Reap also plans to be one of the first in the market to introduce multicurrency stablecoin card capability, enabling card programs to support additional currencies and stablecoin-based funding and settlement options, further broadening the range of digital assets that card programs can utilise.

About Reap

Reap is a global financial technology company that enables financial connectivity and access for businesses worldwide through stablecoin-enabled infrastructure. We transform the financial landscape through more efficient money movement by merging traditional finance with digital assets, bridging disparate economies and connecting key financial markets.

Reap was an early leader in Asia to incorporate stablecoins into our solutions. In 2025, Reap processed billions in stablecoin-funded transaction flows. From stablecoin-enabled credit cards to cross-border payments, we streamline financial operations and empower companies to scale with our integrated business accounts and embedded finance solutions.

Founded and headquartered in Hong Kong, Reap employs around 300 people worldwide. More information about Reap can be found at reap.global.

Jo Plaete, Co-Founder & CTO and one of the world’s leading experts in AI, visual AI, digital humans and high-fidelity synthetic media, heads Brahma AI’s technology and R&D division as the company continues to develop and expand its AI platform.

Renuka Ramnath, Founder, MD & CEO of Multiples

“Brahma AI is reimagining the content supply chain in the age of AI. Built on a unique heritage of Hollywood-grade technology and enterprise innovation, the company is helping organizations unlock greater value through AI-powered content, intelligence, localization, digital humans, and workflow automation. Its strong customer traction, differentiated capabilities and recognition thereof, including a 2026 Technology & Engineering Emmy® Award, reinforce our conviction in its ability to appropriate the multi-billion-dollar market opportunity.

Our investment is anchored in the belief that every enterprise is becoming a content enterprise. Prabhu, Jo and the broader team bring a deep understanding of the industries they serve and have translated cutting-edge AI into highly relevant solutions, spanning enabling multilingual visual experiences for films to developing digital twins for physicians. Multiples Private Equity will be an active partner as the company navigates the next phase of growth through investments in R&D, global market expansion, and talent & process build-out. The company has all the ingredients required to build an enduring global institution in a category that is only beginning to take shape.”

Namit Malhotra, Founder & CEO of DNEG

“Brahma AI began with Prabhu’s bold idea: to bring together the technology stacks and capabilities developed across DNEG, Metaphysic and Prime Focus Technologies and create a new, independent technology company built for the AI era. What he and his team have built from those foundations in such a short period of time has been remarkable.

Under Prabhu’s leadership, Brahma AI has developed its own technology and products, won major global customers and partnerships, and established a clear identity and ambition of its own. There is also a special symmetry to this moment. Prabhu, United Al Saqer Group and Thor Björgólfsson backed and invested in Prime Focus Limited, DNEG and me at an important stage in our journey. Today, all of us are backing Brahma AI and Prabhu alongside new investors led by Multiples.”

Prabhu Narasimhan, Founder & CEO of Brahma AI

“What excites me most about this investment is what it allows us to build next. We are close to launching interactive digital humans, we are building Brahma AI to be model agnostic, and we are taking our technology into entirely new use cases. And security, authenticity and provenance are such an important part of what we are building.

What resonated with us about Multiples is our shared belief that category-defining companies are built through a combination of bold ambition, disciplined execution and long-term thinking. I could not be more excited to have Multiples alongside us as we scale globally and continue pushing the boundaries of enterprise AI.”

Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. served as sole placement agent on this equity financing.
