OCC 2026年度第3四半期決算説明会：売上高22%増、利益率拡大

主要なポイント

• Optical Cable Corporation（OCC）が発表した2026年会計年度第3四半期の売上高は、企業、データセンター、および専門市場に牽引され、前年同期比22%増の2,430万ドルとなりました。
• 売上総利益は43.9%増の910万ドルとなりました。売上総利益率は、生産高の増加、製造効率の向上、および営業レバレッジを反映し、31.7%から37.4%へと拡大しました。
• 純利益は190万ドル（基本および希薄化後1株当たり利益は0.21ドル）に達し、2025年会計年度第3四半期の30万2,000ドル（1株当たり0.04ドル）から増加しました。
• 受注残および先行き受注（フォワードロード）は、2025年10月31日時点の730万ドル、2026年4月30日時点の1,330万ドルから、2026年7月31日時点には1,350万ドルへと増加しました。その大半は2〜3四半期以内に出荷される見込みです。
• 経営陣は、2026年会計年度下期が好調に推移するとの見通しを維持し、8月も売上および需要が引き続き好調であることを報告しました。なお、同社は2027年会計年度のマージンガイダンスを提供していません。
• 光ファイバーの不足が依然として製造拡大における最大の制約要因となっていますが、経営陣は、これが2026年会計年度の残りの期間における継続的な力強い売上成長を阻むものではないと述べています。

主要財務データ

事業および業績の状況

成長は、国内外におけるOCCの企業、データセンター、および専門市場全般にわたる需要強化に支えられました。専門市場には軍事分野が含まれます。また、同社は電力網やエネルギー分野における機会も特定しています。

生産高の増加により、固定製造コストがより大きな売上基盤に分散され、製造効率が向上しました。経営陣は、売上総利益率が四半期ごとの製品ミックスに対して引き続き敏感であると注意を促しました。

OCCは各拠点での人員増強を進めており、ロアノークの光ファイバーケーブル工場およびダラス近郊の接続・終端処理施設で最も大幅な増員を行っています。検討中の生産能力拡大策には、特定の製品群および施設における人員採用と追加設備投資の両方が含まれています。

同社はLightera製品による売上を一部計上し始めています。LighteraはOCCにとって戦略的提携パートナーであると同時に、重要なサプライヤーでもあります。

四半期末時点の運転資本は1,920万ドルとなり、2025年会計年度末の1,390万ドルから増加しました。経営陣は、運転資本、回転信用枠の利用可能額、および営業キャッシュフローの創出量は当面のニーズに対して十分であると述べています。

経営陣の見通し

経営陣は、第3四半期の業績が2026年会計年度下期の好調推移という事前の予想を裏付けるものになったと述べました。9月について言及するのは時期尚早であるものの、8月中の売上および需要も引き続き力強い推移を見せました。

同社は、業界の需要が引き続き高水準にあり、当面減速する兆候は見られないと述べました。しかし経営陣は、現在の需要サイクルや高い受注残の水準がいつまで続くかを予測することはできないとしています。また、第1四半期は休日に関連する季節性の影響を受ける可能性があるとも指摘しました。

OCCは2027年会計年度の具体的なマージンガイダンスを提供しませんでした。経営陣は、生産高の増加が引き続き売上総利益率のパフォーマンスを後押しする可能性がある一方で、販売インセンティブや配送料金は一般に売上高に連動して変動すると示唆しました。

リスクと注視点

• 特にデータセンター等の用途における高需要を背景とした光ファイバー不足が、依然として製造上の主なボトルネックとなっています。
• 一部の原材料でリードタイムが長期化しており、製品の出荷を制約する可能性があります。
• 売上総利益率は、製品ミックス、生産高、および製造効率によって変動する可能性があります。
• データセンター向けの商談サイクルは、サプライヤーおよび製品の認定要件があるため長期化することがあります。現在認定手続中の潜在的な案件は受注残には含まれていません。
• 受注残の履行時期は顧客によって異なり、一部の注文では分割納入が行われます。そのため経営陣は、受注残を四半期売上高の正確な予測指標としては扱っていません。
• 人件費、業務委託販売員費用、販売インセンティブ、および配送費の増加により、販売管理費が増加しました。

アナリスト質疑応答の要点

第3四半期の売上総利益率向上は一時的要因によるものかとの質問に対し、経営陣は製造上の営業レバレッジ、操業効率、および製品ミックスによるものだと説明しました。OCCは現在の生産水準であれば高水準のマージンを維持したい考えを示したものの、公式な予測の提示は控えました。

経営陣はまた、前四半期比で受注残が緩やかに増加したことは需要の正常化を意味するものではないと明確にしました。受注残および先行き受注は四半期末以降も拡大を続けており、残存注文の大半は2〜3四半期以内に出荷される見込みです。

資金調達に関してOCCは、回転信用枠の残高を減らすため現金を毎日スイープ（自動返済）していることから、報告される現金残高が全般的に低くなっていると説明しました。経営陣は、現在の信用枠利用可能額と営業キャッシュフローの創出により、当面の必要資金はカバーできるとしています。

Operator

Good morning, everyone. My name is Bo, and I will be your conference operator today. At this time, I would like to welcome you to Optical Cable Corporation's Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2026 Earnings Conference Call. [Operator Instructions] With that, Ms. Felix, you may begin your conference.

Caroline Felix

Good morning, and thank you for joining us for Optical Cable Corporation's Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2026 Conference Call. By this time, everyone should have a copy of the earnings press release issued earlier today. You can also visit www.occfiber.com for a copy. On the call with us today are Neil Wilkin, President and Chief Executive Officer of OCC; and Tracy Smith, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

Before we begin, I'd like to remind everyone that this call may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The actual future results of Optical Cable Corporation may differ materially due to a number of factors and risks, including, but not limited to, those factors referenced in the forward-looking statements section of this morning's press release. These cautionary statements apply to the contents of the Internet webcast on www.occfiber.com, as well as today's call.

With that, I'll turn the call over to Neil Wilkin. Neil, please begin.

Neil Wilkin

Thank you, Caroline, and good morning, everyone. I will begin the call today with a few opening remarks. Tracy will then review the third quarter results for the 3-month and 9-month periods ended July 31, 2026, in some additional detail. After Tracy's remarks, we will answer as many of your questions as we can.

As is our normal practice, we will only take questions from analysts -- take live questions from analysts and institutional investors during the Q&A session. However, we also offer other shareholders the opportunity to submit questions in advance of our earnings call. Instructions regarding such submissions are included in our press release announcing the date and time of our call.

I will say that today, we got more questions than we typically would get on a quarter from individual investors. We'll answer as many of those as we can. And then when we get to the Q&A for institutional investors, please limit your questions to things that were not addressed by the questions from the individual shareholders, and we'll be limiting the questions we'll take from institutional investors to 1 question per person. With that, we'll begin.

Following a solid start to the year, we continued to build on OCC's strong growth and momentum during the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, delivering year-over-year increases of net sales, gross profit and net income. Net sales increased 22% to $24.3 million and gross profit increased 43.9% to $9.1 million during the third quarter. Our net sales increase was largely driven by strong demand in OCC's enterprise, data center and specialty markets.

Our strong gross profit results during the third quarter and also fiscal year-to-date continue to demonstrate the benefit of OCC's manufacturing operating leverage. As our production volumes increase, our fixed manufacturing costs are spread over higher sales volumes and manufacturing efficiencies also tend to increase.

As of the end of the third quarter, our sales order backlog and forward load stood at $13.5 million. We are now in the last quarter of our fiscal year, and we are confident in OCC's ability to build on our momentum and capitalize on the opportunities ahead. At the same time, we continue to explore opportunities to further strengthen OCC's capabilities and support long-term growth.

As always, we remain focused on delivering exceptional service to our customers and end users and driving sustainable value creation for our shareholders.

And with that, I'll turn the call over to Tracy, who will review in additional detail our third quarter of fiscal year 2026 financial results.

Tracy Smith

Thank you, Neil. Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 increased 22% to $24.3 million compared to $19.9 million for the same period last year. Consolidated net sales for the first 9 months of fiscal 2026 were $62.9 million, an increase of 18.3% compared to net sales of $53.2 million for the same period last year.

During the third quarter and first 9 months of fiscal 2026, we experienced an increase in net sales in our enterprise, data center and specialty markets compared to the same periods last year as we continued to see general market growth opportunities in our industry, both domestically and internationally, with strength specifically in our enterprise, data center and specialty markets.

As Neil mentioned, our sales order backlog and forward load increased to $13.5 million at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to $13.3 million as of April 30, 2026, $10.4 million as of January 31, 2026, and $7.3 million as of October 31, 2025.

Turning to gross profit. Our gross profit increased 43.9% to $9.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $6.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Gross profit margin, our gross profit as a percentage of net sales, increased to 37.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 31.7% in the third quarter of the prior year.

Gross profit increased 35.5% to $22.1 million in the first 9 months of fiscal 2026, compared to $16.3 million in the first 9 months of fiscal 2025. Gross profit margin increased to 35% in the first 9 months of fiscal 2026, compared to 30.6% for the same period last year.

Gross profit margin for the third quarter and first 9 months of fiscal 2026 was positively impacted by higher volumes and the resulting positive impact of our strong operating leverage. Additionally, our gross profit margin percentages are heavily dependent upon product mix on a quarterly basis and may vary based on changes in product mix.

SG&A expenses increased to $7 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 compared to $5.7 million for the same period last year. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 28.7% in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 28.8% in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.

SG&A expenses increased to $18.8 million in the first 9 months of fiscal year 2026 compared to $16.9 million for the same period last year. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 29.9% in the first 9 months of fiscal 2026 compared to 31.8% in the first 9 months of fiscal 2025.

The increase in SG&A expenses during the third quarter and first 9 months of fiscal 2026 compared to the same periods last year was primarily the result of increases in employee costs, contracted sales personnel-related costs and shipping costs. Included in employee costs and contracted sales personnel-related costs are compensation costs and sales incentives.

OCC recorded net income of $1.9 million, or $0.21 per basic and diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to net income of $302,000, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2025. OCC recorded net income of $2.5 million, or $0.28 per basic and diluted share for the first 9 months of fiscal 2026 compared to a net loss of $1.5 million, or $0.19 per basic and diluted share for the first 9 months of fiscal 2025.

With that, I'll turn the call back over to you, Neil.

Neil Wilkin

Thank you, Tracy. As I previously mentioned, we received a large number of questions in advance of today's call, some of which came in just before the call. We believe that some of these questions that have been submitted will be of interest to most participants. So we're going to go through those questions first, and then we will address any remaining questions live from analysts or institutional investors.

As we've stated before, we'd like to take 1 question from each institutional investor because I think we're going to be covering a lot of the questions you may have through the previously submitted questions. Caroline, if you'd please begin by reading the questions we've received that we were provided in advance of the call, and we'll proceed to respond.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Neil. The first question is, can you please go into more detail about how backlog and quarterly revenue have been changing in this new demand cycle and how it is different from prior instances where backlog has bumped to above $10 million? You had said in prior calls that you expected the second half of 2026 to be very strong. Is this reflected in current and future expected backlog? Is that assumption still valid? Or is the second half of 2026 looking different at all, positive or negative? How long do you expect this higher backlog to sustain?

Neil Wilkin

So there's a lot of questions in that first statement. As you can see from our press release earlier this morning, our results during the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 support our previous expectation that the second half of 2026 would be very strong. We continue to believe that, that's going to be the case. We continue to have a robust backlog and forward load that are increasing. At the same time, sales are increasing.

We can't specifically comment on how long we expect our higher backlog to continue. However, as we've seen in the past, the backlog when it increases to a certain level, certainly is indicative of what we believe we're going to see in the following quarter or so. But a lower backlog doesn't necessarily mean that, that's going to generate a lower sales number, and we've talked about that previously. It's not a data point we've always described, but we've only been disclosing it to folks through our press releases and 10-Qs when we believe that, that number has some significant value.

I think I can also say that even though we don't know what the backlog will do, we still do believe that the industry in general is seeing high levels of demand, and there does not appear to be any indication that demand is weakening, at least as far as we can see at the moment. This does not necessarily mean that we will not see any seasonality. Our first quarter has many holidays in it, including Thanksgiving, Christmas, other December holidays, as well as New Year's. So, at this point, we're not really sure what we'll see in the first quarter, but we are seeing a significant amount of demand across the board in all of our markets.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Neil. Next question is, can you touch on performance of OCC traditional markets, including defense?

Neil Wilkin

Yes. I mean, as we noted in our press release this morning, our enterprise, data center and specialty market sectors are all increasing during this quarter and during our year-to-date periods for -- through the third quarter of 2026. Our specialty markets include market sectors such as the military market sector.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Neil. Next question. Can you comment on OCC's working capital position and if you feel you have enough working capital to sustain the planned growth?

Neil Wilkin

Tracy, you will take this one.

Tracy Smith

Yes, sure. Our working capital is strong at $19.2 million at the end of the third quarter and improved compared to $13.9 million at the end of fiscal year 2025. We do believe that our working capital and credit revolver are sufficient to support and sustain our working capital needs.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Tracy. The next question is, can you provide some color on the growth rates for new versus existing customers?

Tracy Smith

I'll take that one as well. As we have noted previously, most of our sales are made through distributor channels. So we do not always have a clear picture of the customer purchasing our products through distribution or the end users of our products. However, we believe that our growth is being driven by both our existing customers and new customers and end users.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Tracy. Next question. On the last earnings call, Neil, you had said that the sales cycle is longer for data center. Could you elaborate on that? Is the pre-backlog sales process/pipeline longer because of customer qualifications?

Neil Wilkin

So yes, I'll take that one. Yes, the sales cycle for certain portions of the data center market sector do tend to be longer. That can include qualification requirements as a new supplier for certain new products being supplied. However, as we're going through those qualification processes where they exist or indications or periods where the sales cycle is longer, that those hopefully potential sales do not show up in our backlog. Our forward load and backlog is really items where we've either received an order -- we received an order or where we expect that, that order is noncancelable and that we will be delivering it at some point in the future. Sometimes that's a short time period. Sometimes that's a longer time period because we do have some customers that stage the deliveries over time.

Caroline Felix

Next question. Does the flattish backlog versus the last quarter reflect a potential normalization in demand? Should we expect backlog to normalize further in Q4, given that Q1 is the softest quarter in terms of seasonality?

Neil Wilkin

I don't think that this -- the backlog increasing a slight amount indicates that demand is flattening in any way. We continue to see significant growth opportunities, and we have seen our backlog and sales forward load continue to grow this past month. This does not mean we may not experience some typical seasonality, as I mentioned before, in the first quarter. But for now, we continue to see continued strength in demand for our products, even if it's not reflected in a small change in the backlog forward load as of the end of the quarter.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Neil. The next question is, SG&A rose to $7 million, above where the operating leverage story would predict. Was the Q2 to Q3 increase in employee and contracted sales personnel a onetime capacity step that now levels off? Or should we model continued SG&A growth as revenue scales? Put differently, where does SG&A settle as a percentage of sales at a $100 million-plus run rate?

Tracy Smith

I'll take that one. We don't generally provide guidance related to future or theoretical sales levels. However, certain sales compensation costs included in SG&A, as well as other costs such as shipping costs, generally tend to fluctuate with sales levels. However, this does not mean we will not see future benefits of SG&A operating leverage as sales continue to grow.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Tracy. Next question is on funding and dilution, with working capital rising alongside growth and cash still thin, how are you funding the ramp? And at what revenue level would you need to raise equity or expand the credit facility? Should shareholders anticipate a capital raise to support fiscal year 2027 growth?

Tracy Smith

As we believe we've described previously, our cash is swept daily to repay the balance on our credit revolver. So our cash balance at any point in time will generally not be very high. At the current time, we believe we have sufficient availability on our credit revolver and from cash generated from operations to meet our needs for the near term.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Tracy. Next question. Can you give some color on deliveries expected in Q4 and how you see margins progressing throughout fiscal year 2027?

Tracy Smith

Again, we don't provide forward guidance, so I won't comment on how we expect margins to progress throughout fiscal year 2027. I will say that we have continued to see strong sales and demand in August, but it is too early to comment on September.

Caroline Felix

The next question is, can you comment on the increased demand cycle you were experiencing and how long it could last?

Tracy Smith

Sure. As previously noted, we can't forecast specifically on how long we expect the increased demand cycle to continue. However, I can say that the industry, in general, is seeing high levels of demand, and there doesn't appear to be an indication of demand weakening in the near term.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Tracy. Next question. Can you provide any sort of future outlook regarding customer demand signals?

Neil Wilkin

Caroline, so that you know we're having a little bit of trouble hearing you. If Bo could confirm that he's able to hear you okay, we're hearing your question, and we'll continue to answer them, but your signal is breaking up just a little bit.

Operator

Mr. Wilkin, are you having any problem hearing Caroline? Mr. Wilkin, I can hear her loud and clear at this time, sir.

Neil Wilkin

Okay. Okay. Maybe on our end then. So hopefully, you can hear us. Please flag -- let us know if you're having any trouble hearing us.

Caroline Felix

Yes, we can hear you okay.

Tracy Smith

Okay. So other than what we have already disclosed, we cannot really provide any additional future customer demand outlook.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Tracy. The next question is, are you seeing any new or emerging risks?

Neil Wilkin

We are not seeing any new or unusual market risk at this time. As we've described during our second quarter earnings call, we have been seeing some industry-wide delays as a result of high product demand and certain fiber optic -- optical fiber shortages. Additionally, we've seen some longer lead times for certain raw materials, as one would expect given the current high demand for products. We expect these challenges will continue, but we also believe we're taking appropriate action to navigate those challenges.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Neil. The next question is, can you provide an update on OCC's plans to increase capacity? What level of capacity expansion are we talking about? And what is the plan?

Neil Wilkin

We are regularly considering the need for investment in machinery and equipment and/or human resources to expand our capacity in general and also for specific opportunities. We are seeing some opportunities to increase our capacity currently. We do not generally comment publicly on the specific capacity expansion plans for various reasons, including for competitive reasons. And I think that answers the question.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Neil. The next question is, can you provide an update on fiber shortages and potential challenges of higher fiber pricing on OCC's margins?

Neil Wilkin

Yes. Currently, the industry continues to experience optical fiber shortages due to excessive product demand for data centers as well as certain other product applications. We believe OCC is successfully managing these industry dynamics as we've demonstrated during the first 9 months of this fiscal year. We do not believe these industry challenges will prevent us from continuing to report strong top line revenue growth during the remainder of fiscal year 2026. Notably, we work to limit potential impacts on our customers and our gross profits that these industry factors may have. Of course, as we've noted in the past, OCC's profit margins can also be impacted by product mix and other factors, which can be difficult to predict.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Neil. Next question. Can you share an update on any potential bottlenecks at ramping up manufacturing, including labor availability and cost?

Neil Wilkin

We are able to -- we are seeing various different effects that are limiting our product shipments at some level, and so those are bottlenecks. Those are primarily impediments to ramping up manufacturing. The primary impediments to ramping up manufacturing at the current time is really optical fiber shortages, as we previously described. But as you can also see in our results, we've been able to generate increased sales despite those impediments.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Neil. Next question. Can you provide some color on inventory levels at OCC customers and dealers and if this is above or below average?

Tracy Smith

As you might expect, we're not able to specifically comment on inventory levels of our products at our customers. That said, given current market conditions, we believe it would be unusual for companies to be carrying inventory in excess of current expected demand.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Tracy. Next question. What is the typical duration of your backlog? And is this currently changing? Or does the data center-related business have different characteristics?

Tracy Smith

Various factors determine the duration of our sales order backlog and forward load, which are specific to each customer. Our backlog and forward load generally represents what we consider to be noncancelable orders. However, in some cases, customers may schedule out future deliveries, while others are expected to ship as soon as we can complete manufacturing. As a result, I would not say there is a typical duration. However, I would say that most of our sales order backlog and forward load is expected to be shipped within 2 to 3 quarters.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Tracy. Next question is, can you help us understand what level of capacity OCC is currently operating at? On the last earnings call, Tracy, you had mentioned that OCC is looking into expanding capacity. Could you provide some additional color on which products or end markets you may focus on?

Tracy Smith

OCC has different levels of capacity for different product families at each of our manufacturing facilities. And so yes, we are looking into expanding capacity for certain products at certain facilities, and this includes additional hires as well as additional equipment.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Tracy. Next question. Does OCC have opportunities in the grid, battery, energy and storage systems verticals?

Neil Wilkin

Yes. OCC has some fiber optic cable and connectivity opportunities in grid and energy vertical market sectors.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Neil. The next question is, Google Data is projected to build a large campus of data centers very close to OCC's site in Roanoke. Does this present an opportunity for you?

Neil Wilkin

OCC's primary focus in the data center market sector is multi-tenant data centers and enterprise data centers. However, we are following the Google data center project near us. And as you'd expect, we will explore potential opportunities on that project. And of course, we're very excited that they're going to be setting this data center up so close to our Roanoke facility.

Caroline Felix

The next question is, this summer, Furukawa announced a significant capacity expansion through Lightera. Is this an opportunity for OCC?

Neil Wilkin

Well, as you'd expect, we don't speak for Furukawa or Lightera. However, from OCC's perspective, Lightera is not only a strategic collaboration partner with OCC, but they are also an important supplier to OCC. The strategic collaboration with Lightera does add certain products to OCC's product offering.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Neil. The next question is, in June, the company significantly stepped up its manufacturing-related hiring in Plano. Is this in relation to the Lightera partnership? And am I correctly recalling that OCC does a lot of its data center-related connectivity work in Plano?

Neil Wilkin

Well, we're actually currently increasing staffing at each of our facilities with the largest increases at our fiber optic cable manufacturing facility in Roanoke and our connectivity and termination facility near Dallas. OCC has capabilities related to our targeted data center market sectors in each of our manufacturing facilities, including Roanoke, Dallas as well as some in Asheville as well.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Neil. The last question for today is, your last 10-Q changed its language around the Lightera partnership related to Lightera products being offered and sold by the company. Does this mean that OCC has started to realize the first sales related to the Lightera partnership in Q2? And could you give us an update for Q3?

Tracy Smith

As you would expect, we are beginning to see some sales of some Lightera products, thus the change in the language in the 10-Q.

Caroline Felix

Thanks, Tracy and Neil. We have no other questions that were provided in advance of the call today at this time.

Neil Wilkin

Well, thank you, Caroline. And now we will answer any additional questions that analysts or institutional investors may have. We ask that you please limit yourself to one question. Bo, if you could please indicate the instructions to our participants to call in any questions they have. I'd appreciate it. Additionally, if you'd please mute individuals following their 1 question so that we can take as many of the questions from analysts and institutional investors that wish to ask.

Operator

[Operator Instructions] We'll go first this morning to Sergi Mascaro with Eden Discovery.

質疑応答

Sergi Mascaro

So the gross margin was very impressive this quarter, and I'm wondering if this improvement is just related to higher volumes or there are other factors or other one-offs impacting the gross margin?

Neil Wilkin

Well, our gross margin can vary based on manufacturing operating leverage, but also -- and other efficiencies, also product mix. And so we're pleased that we've been able to show an increase in our gross profit margins over the last couple of -- gross profit margin percentage over the last couple of quarters, and we're hoping that we'll continue to maintain higher margins at the production levels we're currently at.

Operator

[Operator Instructions] And Mr. Wilkin, it appears we have no further questions over the phone at this time. Sir, I'd like to turn the conference back to you for any closing comments.

Neil Wilkin

Okay. Well, thank you. I would like to thank everyone for listening to our third quarter of fiscal year 2026 conference call today. As always, we appreciate your time and your investment in Optical Cable Corporation.

Additionally, I would like to note that this Friday marks the 25th anniversary of the terrible attack on the United States on September 11, 2001. We are so grateful for our company's first responders and those that serve and support the U.S. military for protecting us, protecting our freedom and protecting our way of life. Thank you all. Have a good day.

Operator

Thank you very much, Mr. Wilkin, and thank you, Ms. Smith. Again, ladies and gentlemen, this brings us to the end of today's meeting. We do appreciate your time and participation. You may now disconnect.
