Highway Holdings Q3 Revenue Plunges 40% Amid Key Customer Loss, Myanmar Disruptions
HIHO sits 18% above its 52-week low of $0.77.
Summary
Highway Holdings reported a substantial 40.5% year-over-year revenue decline to $1.15 million and a net loss of $115,000 for its fiscal third quarter, a significant reversal from a year-ago net income. This severe downturn was primarily attributed to the loss of a major e-motor customer and ongoing operational disruptions in Myanmar due to political decisions impacting key customers. For a micro-cap company, this magnitude of revenue contraction and shift to a net loss is highly material, signaling significant operational and financial distress. The company anticipates continued impact from the customer loss and aims to return to growth through cost reductions and strategic acquisitions, targeting improved performance starting fiscal year 2027, while also negotiating new business assembling electric car kits in Myanmar.
