Overview NAPCO is one of the leading manufacturers and designers of high-tech electronic security devices, cellular communication services for intrusion and fire alarm systems as well as a leading provider of school safety solutions. We offer a diversified array of security products, encompassing access control systems, door-locking products, intrusion and fire alarm systems and video surveillance products. These products are used for commercial, residential, institutional, industrial and governmental applications, and are sold principally to independent distributors, dealers and installers of security equipment. We have established a national network of trusted independent security dealers and integrators that are experts at selling, installing and supporting our various technologies. These dealers are dependent on our platform for communication services to our radio communicators and smart security devices, and they pay us a monthly fee for these services to operate and manage their businesses efficiently. Our net revenues were $202.3 million, $181.6 million and $188.8 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in our net revenues from fiscal 2025 to 2026 was driven by the increase in revenues of equipment products ($9.5 million or 10.0%) as well as the continued growth of our recurring communication services ($11.2 million or 13.0%). The increase in net equipment revenues was due primarily to increased revenues of door-locking products ($6.9 million or 11.1%) and increased revenues of intrusion and access products ($2.6 million or 7.8%). The increase in net service revenues was due to net new activations of our fire and burglar cellular (radio) communication devices put into service and activated. Our net income was $43.0 million, $43.4 million and $49.8 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Net income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026 is inclusive of a one-time litigation settlement charge of ($16 million). Our Products and Services Since 1969, NAPCO has established a heritage and proven record in the professional security community for reliably delivering both advanced technology and high-quality security solutions, building many of the industry’s widely recognized brands, such as NAPCO Security Technologies, Alarm Lock, NAPCO Access Pro, Marks USA, and other popular product lines. The Company’s products and services are comprised primarily of the following: ● Standalone and networked digital door locks ● Standard and custom Locksets, Panic Devices and Door Closers ● Intrusion alarm equipment ● Intrusion and fire alarm cellular communication devices and services from which we generate recurring monthly service revenues and which has been a key driver of our profitability growth ● Integrated cellular intrusion alarm systems ​ Table of Contents ● Door controllers and hosted services for access control Communication Services (Recurring Service Revenues) In 2012, we began to generate monthly recurring service revenue by providing secure cellular and cloud access for intrusion and fire alarm communicators and other smart security devices. These services are provided to the Company’s customers on a month-to-month basis in exchange for a monthly fee. Revenues from these services have grown significantly over the past several years, increasing 29% from fiscal 2024 to fiscal 2026. These revenues, which currently have a gross margin of approximately 90.3% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, represent approximately 48% of our total revenue for the fiscal year ended of June 30, 2026. Since 2012, we have continued to develop and sell additional equipment products that require communication services and generate recurring revenues. To date, the majority of our recurring revenue has been generated through the sale, installation and activation of our StarLink cellular communication devices. These products are installed at the premises of end users, and we generate revenue from the installers by both the upfront purchase of our products and the monthly subscription fees for access to our Networx Operations Center (NOC) that provides cellular communication services to the devices. Monthly recurring service revenue generates substantially higher gross margins than do equipment sales and allows us to generate a more consistent stream of income. We believe there is a significant market opportunity for these products and services because many commercial and residential customers prefer to purchase real-time security monitoring services to ensure continuous protection and swift responses to security breaches and fire alarms. We intend to continue pursuing recurring revenue opportunities by developing new and innovative products and continuing our aggressive sales and marketing efforts of these products. Door Security Products The Company manufactures a variety of door locking devices including microprocessor-based electronic door locks with push button, card reader and bio-metric operation, door alarms, mechanical door locks and simple dead bolt locks. These devices may control a single door or, in the case of some of the Company’s microprocessor-based door locks, may be networked with the Company’s access control systems and controlled remotely. Intrusion and Fire Alarm Systems. Alarm systems usually consist of various detectors, a control panel, a digital keypad and signaling equipment. When a break-in occurs, an intrusion detector senses the intrusion and activates a control panel via hard-wired or wireless transmission that sets off the signaling equipment and, in most cases, causes a bell or siren to sound. Communication equipment such as a cellular or digital communicator may be used to transmit the alarm signal to a central station or another person selected by a customer. Cellular communicators have become the standard, and panels and communicators are trending towards integration so that many alarm panels will contain an integrated cellular communication device. The Company manufactures and markets the following products for these alarm systems: ●Automatic Communicators. When a control panel is activated by a signal from an intrusion detector, it activates a communicator that can automatically dial one or more pre-designated telephone numbers utilizing wired (“landline”) or cellular communications systems. If programmed to do so, a digital communicator dials the telephone number of a central monitoring station and communicates in computer language to a digital communicator receiver, which signals an alarm message. ●Cellular communication devices. A cellular communication device connects to the communicator and is used in lieu of, or in addition to, a landline for communicating with a central monitoring station. ●Control Panels. A control panel is the "brain" of an alarm system. When activated by any one of the various types of intrusion detectors, it can activate an audible alarm and/or various types of communication devices. ​ Table of Contents ●Combination Control Panels/Digital Communicators and Digital Keypad Systems. A combination control panel, digital communicator and a digital keypad have continued to be the leading configuration in terms of dealer and consumer preference. Benefits of the combination format include the cost efficiency resulting from a single microcomputer function, as well as the reliability and ease of installation gained from the simplicity and sophistication of micro-computer technology. ●Fire Alarm Control Panel. Multi-zone fire alarm control panels, which accommodate an optional digital communicator for reporting to a central station, are also manufactured by the Company. ●Area Detectors. The Company's area detectors are both passive infrared heat detectors and combination microwave/passive infrared detectors that are linked to alarm control panels. Passive infrared heat detectors respond to the change in heat patterns caused by an intruder moving within a protected area. Combination units respond to both changes in heat patterns and changes in microwave patterns occurring at the same time. Access Control Systems. Access control systems consist of one or more of the following: various types of identification readers (e.g. card readers, hand scanners), a control panel, a PC-based computer and electronically activated door-locking devices. When an identification card or other identifying information is entered into the reader, the information is transmitted to the control panel/PC, which then validates the data and determines whether to grant access by electronically deactivating the door locking device. An electronic log is kept which records various types of data regarding access activity. Video Surveillance Systems. Video surveillance systems typically consist of one or more video cameras, a control panel and a video monitor or PC. More advanced systems can also include a recording device and some type of remote communication device such as an internet connection to a PC or browser-enabled cell phone. The system allows the user to monitor various locations at once while recorders save the video images for future use. Remote communication devices can allow the user to view and control the system from a remote location. The Company designs, engineers, and markets the software and control panels discussed above. It also buys and resells various video cameras, PC-based computers and peripheral equipment for video surveillance systems. School Security and Public Safety School security and public safety continue to be an important market, and we have developed products to help address security concerns arising from the significant need for increased security in schools and other public spaces. In the U.S., there are over 100,000 K-12 schools, over 5,000 colleges and universities and over 350,000 houses of worship. As a result of increased “active shooter” incidents, a number of U.S. states and local governments have substantially increased school security budgets. Many colleges and universities have large endowments which are starting to be utilized to address this critical issue. Security equipment and services focused on education has reached over $3 billion in revenues and this segment is still in the early stages as many K-12 schools, colleges and universities have still not addressed this issue. With a full suite of products and solutions, we believe we are well positioned to meet the security needs of schools, houses of worship, and other places where people congregate. Depending on the needs of the school and their budget, we offer (i) Standalone LocDown locks which can be operated by a teacher, (ii) a series of Networx standalone wireless locks which communicate with central controls, or (iii) enterprise-class access control with cellular connectivity, which allows the head of security to lock down all or part of the campus, including dorm rooms, classrooms and administrative offices, from a centralized office. While we continue to win new school security projects, due to the nature of selling our security products through distribution, total visibility into quantifying the revenue from this market is difficult. Competition The security products industry is highly competitive. The Company's primary competitors are comprised of approximately 12 other companies that manufacture and market security equipment to distributors, dealers, central stations and original equipment manufacturers. The Company believes that none of these competitors is dominant in the industry. Most of these companies have substantially greater financial and other resources than the Company. However, unlike the Company, we believe that none of these competitors manufactures all key building security products: Intrusion Alarms and Access Control, Connectivity, and Locking devices. As more security installations include multiple security-related systems, which can include, intrusion, fire, access control, ​ Table of Contents door-locking and connectivity, there is more demand for the various systems to communicate with each other. By having everything manufactured under one roof, we can offer customers one integrated platform solution without the risk of incompatible equipment from multiple vendors to “talk” to each other. Our manufacturing facility located in the Dominican Republic (“D.R.”) manufactures over 90% of our products. It is located in a free zone which is a tax-advantaged location. The D.R. manufacturing operation is vertically integrated and operates in a low-cost location, where the typical labor cost are significantly less than the cost for similar services in the U.S. The D.R. facility allows us to maintain a lower manufacturing overhead and improve our gross margin. The building is self-contained with the ability to withstand a Category 5 hurricane. Shipping times from the D.R. to the Amityville facility are typically 6-8 days. We perform our managerial and administrative activities in the U.S. in our facility located in Amityville, New York, which is 100,000 square feet and serves as Company’s headquarters, containing its corporate offices, research and development, design, sales administration, technical services, finance, procurement, manufacturing control, warehousing, and shipping operations. We believe that our ability to provide timely and effective technical support and services to our U.S. customers from our U.S. facility in Amityville is an advantage over other companies in the security industry that have moved customer service functions overseas to countries such as India and Philippines. Our dealers and customers rely substantially on the ability to communicate real-time to experts who can provide clear and understandable advice and instruction, because they are usually dealing with highly technical problems on a job site with little time to spare. The Company competes primarily on the basis of the features, quality, reliability and pricing of, and the incorporation of the latest innovative and technological advances into, its products. The Company also competes by offering technical support services to its customers. In addition, the Company competes on the basis of its expertise, its proven products, its reputation and its ability to provide products to customers on a timely basis. The inability of the Company to compete with respect to any one or more of the aforementioned factors could have an adverse impact on the Company's business. Our Strategy Due to paradigm changes in the security marketplace, the Company’s focus has been on mandatory (non-elective) systems, such as fire systems with central station monitoring in commercial buildings, and IoT-driven connectivity services in high growth and margin categories. As copper land lines continue to be phased out and more people are required to switch to cellular phone service for their homes, our cellular communication services become increasingly attractive in these installations, both new and existing. We have built a strong competitive position by developing a wide range of software capabilities from embedded micro-coding to enterprise system software, database design, mobile applications development, user portal design, mechanical and electronic mechanisms and telecommunications, featuring our significant radio and cellular communications expertise. This has enabled us to create recurring revenue opportunities across product lines, and sustained profitability from recurring revenue with margins that approach or exceed 90%. We are also focusing on security solutions for the healthcare industry, including anti-ligature lockets designed for life safety and liability reduction in hospitals, behavior health institutions and correctional facilities, and such products are highly profitable while complying with applicable regulatory and health standards. We believe that our ability to design and produce these products and services is possible due to our advanced set of in-house engineering technology capability from mechanical to electronic and electro-mechanical products, digital, microprocessor and analog circuit design, networking products, and wireless and cellular communications electronics. Research and Development The success of the Company’s business depends substantially on its ability to develop new and proprietary technology and products conducted primarily by its engineering department to develop and improve the products. The Company intends to continue to conduct a significant portion of its future research and development activities internally. We spend approximately 6% to 7% of our revenues on research and development. Our Human Capital Resources As of June 30, 2026, the Company had 1,049 full-time employees. 293 of these were located in the United States (“U.S.”) and 756 were located at our manufacturing facility in the Dominican Republic (“DR”). 38 of our U.S. employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We also engage consultants from time to time. Management considers its relationship with its employees to be very good. ​ Table of Contents Hiring, motivating and retaining talented employees is an ongoing priority to Napco. Maintaining a talented workforce at all levels is critical to our ability to deliver high-quality products and services to our customers as well as maintain shareholder value. To maintain a high level of talent in our workforce, Napco offers comprehensive benefits programs, competitive wages, incentive programs, performance reviews and various employee activities and awards. We also provide training and management support for employees to enhance their success and to identify outstanding talent and development opportunities. Government Regulation Our business and products are subject to various federal, state, local and international regulatory authorities and the regulatory authorities in the countries in which our products are produced or sold. Compliance with these laws and regulations has not had and is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company, including capital expenditures for environmental compliance, or on its earnings or competitive position. Marketing The Company's staff of 61 sales and marketing employees sell and market our products primarily to independent distributors, wholesalers and dealers of security alarm and security hardware equipment. The Company currently has approximately 2,200 active customers made up of distributors, installing dealers and wholesalers who purchase our products directly from the Company as well as many more who purchase our products from these distributors. The Company's sales representatives periodically contact existing and potential customers to introduce new products and create demand for those as well as other Company products. These sales representatives, together with the Company's technical personnel, provide training and other services to wholesalers and distributors so that they can better service the needs of their customers. In addition to direct sales efforts, the Company advertises in technical trade publications and participates in trade shows in major United States cities. Raw Materials The Company prepares specifications for component parts used in the products and purchases the components from outside sources or fabricates the components itself. These components, if standard, are generally readily available; if specially designed for the Company, there is usually more than one alternative source of supply available to the Company on a competitive basis. The Company generally maintains inventories of all critical components. A majority of purchased components are sourced from U.S. and Asian suppliers and are typically shipped directly to the D.R. The Company, for the most part, is not dependent on any one source for its raw materials. The Company believes that any vendor that is currently the sole source of a component can be replaced without a material impact on the Company. The Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) data center buildout has increased demand across a broad range of electronic components, including microcontrollers, memory devices, power management integrated circuits, networking components and other semiconductors used in our products. Suppliers may allocate limited manufacturing capacity to customers serving AI and cloud infrastructure markets, reducing availability for security and access control manufacturers such as us. Discussions within the Company have noted that the AI data center boom has materially altered the competitive landscape for electronic component supply. Consequently, we may experience longer lead times, cost increases, allocation restrictions or reduced product availability from suppliers. If we are unable to obtain sufficient quantities of critical components, identify alternative sources, or pass increased costs to customers, our ability to manufacture and deliver products could be adversely affected.
