Dean W. Rivest, Chief Executive Officer of Omega Flex, Inc. (the “Company”), announced that net sales of the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 were $72,847,000 and $73,089,000, respectively, decreasing by $242,000 or 0.3%. Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2026 were 6.0% higher than net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

 

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $7,111,000, compared to net income of $11,412,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, decreasing by $4,301,000 or 37.7% (the “Nine Month Decrease”). Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was 36.0% below net income for the same period in 2025 (the “Three Month Decrease”). The decrease in net income was mainly due to higher raw material costs (including inbound transportation costs and tariffs) and marketing efforts. The higher costs and expenses described above were partly offset by lower product liability reserves and expenses.

 

Approximately 52% of the Nine Month Decrease, and 102% of the Three Month Decrease, was due to the above-described higher raw material costs (including inbound transportation costs and tariffs) and marketing efforts that were attributable to the procurement of inventory and introduction of the new re-engineered flexible gas piping fitting described below. These higher costs will continue as the Company procures raw materials to achieve targeted inventory levels and markets the new fitting. However, the Company believes that these higher costs will be limited in duration and will normalize over time.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company continued to pursue product enhancements intended to strengthen its market position. On July 1, 2026, the Company introduced a re-engineered flexible gas piping fitting designed to support a broader range of applications across both residential and commercial construction markets. The new TracPipe® System branded fitting is designed to ease installation while enhancing overall safety and reliability. The Company believes that in the commercial sector, the fitting is particularly well suited for larger diameter systems, including sizes up to two inches, helping to address the requirements of more demanding installations. The Company continues to make targeted investments in equipment and facilities intended to expand capacity, enhance operational efficiency, and support geographic growth by improving its ability to serve customers and distribution partners across existing and new markets.
