During Park Aerospace’s Q2 2026 earnings call on October 10, 2025, Brian Shore reported net sales of $16.38 million, a 2% year-over-year decline that he noted was above internal estimates. Gross profit rose to $5.12 million with a gross margin of 31.2%, exceeding the company’s 30% target, and net earnings increased 16.4% to $2.40 million. Shore described the aerospace industry as “getting religion,” citing a more collaborative attitude from OEMs in working with suppliers to ramp up production. He stated that Park could support 75 A320 aircraft per month if needed, but said the broader supply chain is unable to “turn on a dime.” Shore reiterated that the company does not provide formal guidance, but offered an estimate of “a little over 70 million” for fiscal 2025 revenue. He emphasized a sense of urgency, saying, “Timing is now. We must take advantage of the opportunities now. We must not hesitate or we will squander.” He also noted that Park entered a business partner agreement with Aryan in January 2022, under which Aryan appointed Park as its exclusive North American distributor, and that the two companies entered a further agreement in March 2025.
