“Nortech delivered a solid second quarter, with year-over-year revenue growth, improved gross margins, and continued positive operating income reflecting the benefits of our restructuring actions and disciplined execution,” said President & CEO, Jay D. Miller.
“We are encouraged by the continued strength of our bookings and our backlog, which we view as an important leading indicator of future business prospects, including opportunities in attractive markets such as Aerospace and Defense as well as Medical. We are also seeing continued customer interest in nearshoring and regional manufacturing strategies, where our North American footprint, combined with our China operations, positions Nortech well to support customers’ evolving supply chain needs. As we move through the second half of 2026, we remain focused on converting strong customer engagement into sustainable growth and long-term value.”
