Orbit International Q2 Revenue Falls on Lower Bookings, Loss Widens
ORBT sits 72% above its 52-week low of $2.25 on light trading volume (0.4× avg).
Summary
Orbit International reported Q2 revenue of $4.89 million, down year-over-year, with a net loss of $1.72 million ($0.51 per share). The decline was driven by lower bookings and contract delays, particularly in the Orbit Instrument division. Backlog at June 30 rose 6.5% from year-end, and Orbit Power Group bookings surged 87.8% through July 31, suggesting potential recovery. Management expects Orbit Instrument delivery schedules to improve significantly in Q4 2026. The company also cited higher legal costs in the SPS segment. This is a material earnings update for a micro-cap company, with mixed signals: near-term weakness but improving backlog and bookings.
