SPOKANE VALLEY, WA — Key Tronic Corporation reported total revenue of $137.3 million for the first quarter of its fiscal year, up 9% from the previous quarter and up 3% from the $132.8 million in revenue in the same period of fiscal year 2022.

“We’re pleased with our growing revenue and earnings during the first quarter, driven by the successful ramp of new programs and our expanding customer base,” said Craig Gates, President and Chief Executive Officer. “During the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, we won new programs involving audio, automation, electric vehicle and power distribution equipment. We’re also preparing for a significant ramp in production in our Mexico facility for the previously announced program with a leading outdoor power equipment company during the second quarter.

“Moving further into fiscal 2023, the headwinds from the global supply chain continue to present uncertainty and multiple business challenges but do show some signs of gradually abating, particularly with respect to the recent price reductions for commodity components. At the same time, these price reductions are offset by increasing wages at our North American facilities.

“Global logistics problems, China-US political tensions and heightened assurance of supply concerns continue to drive the favorable trend of contract manufacturing returning to North America, as well as to expanding our Vietnam facilities. We see the potential for significant growth in fiscal 2023 and beyond,” he said.

For the second quarter of fiscal year 2023, Keytronic expects to report revenue in the range of $140 million to $150 million.
