Methode Electronics reports Q4 adjusted EPS (77c) vs. (23c) last year

Reports Q4 revenue $257.1M vs. $277.3M last year . President and CEO Jon DeGaynor said, “The Methode transformation journey made further progress in the quarter, as we focused on improving execution to drive long-term value. We have built a new management team and set records for the quarter and the year in data center power product sales, with the year finishing at over $80 million. The year also provided a series of challenges both exogenous and endogenous. We experienced a significant ramp down in expected demand from one of our largest EV customers and delays with other EV customers. In fact, we finished the year with a challenging exercise to write down inventory primarily related to materials for reduced, delayed or canceled programs. While the team made clear strides in improving operational execution, the results were masked by factors that were either outside our immediate control or residual in nature which led to a larger than expected net loss for the quarter.”
