Actionable Insight ◆ Mixed

The mixed results reflect a strong balance sheet and new segment growth offset by a declining Security segment. Monitor the conversion of Invocon's deferred revenue and the ramp of Vicon's cost savings in the next quarter. The pending Industrial Services acquisition could provide further upside.

Executive Summary

Cemtrex reported fiscal Q2 2026 revenue of $18.1M, up from $15.0M in the prior-year quarter, driven by the launch of the Aerospace & Defense segment and growth in Industrial Services. Net income attributable to common stockholders was $0.9M, compared to a net loss of $2.4M in the prior-year quarter, aided by a $2.1M bargain purchase gain. The Security segment revenue declined 66% year-over-year due to a non-recurring large sale, and on an underlying basis fell 12%.
