Astronics rallied 3.3% after reporting revenue and bookings at the high end of guidance, driven by broad demand and margin expansion. Investors responded positively to improved profitability and an upward revision to full-year revenue guidance reflecting strong order momentum.
- Q1 revenue of $231 million marked a 12% increase year-over-year and was near the top of the guided range.
- Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 16.4% from 14.9% a year ago, reflecting volume leverage, productivity improvements, and a favorable MV-75 program catch-up.
- Bookings hit a record $290 million, with a book-to-bill ratio of 1.26, supporting backlog growth to a new high of $734 million.
- Full-year revenue guidance was raised to $970 million–$1 billion, implying 14% organic growth at the midpoint.
- Despite margin gains, tariff costs increased by $1.7 million, partially offsetting benefits from operational improvements.
