With approximately 548 employees across the United States and Mexico, the company has built a reputation for delivering mission-critical components and services to demanding industries. Its operations are organized into two principal segments: Sypris Technologies and Sypris Electronics.
Sypris Technologies specializes in the production of steel components, including forged, machined, welded, and heat-treated parts. These components serve a wide range of markets such as commercial vehicles, off-highway and recreational vehicles, automotive, industrial applications, light trucks, and the energy sector. Key products include drivetrain components like axle shafts, transmission shafts, gear sets, and steer axle knuckles, as well as pressure closures and fabricated items for oil and gas pipelines. The segment also offers value-added assembly services for drivetrain systems. Known for its Tube Turns brand, Sypris Technologies provides specialty closures and piping components for pipeline construction and maintenance.
Sypris Electronics offers comprehensive electronic manufacturing services, including circuit card assembly, box build manufacturing, high-reliability production, systems assembly and integration, and design-for-manufacturability consulting. This segment primarily serves the aerospace and defense electronics market, producing assemblies for radar, tactical ground stations, navigation, weapons, targeting, and warning systems. It supports both low-volume prototype work and large-scale turnkey projects, providing flexibility to customers.
Financially, Sypris Solutions has faced challenges, with negative profitability metrics and cash flow issues in recent periods. As of the latest data, the company's market capitalization stood at approximately $48 million, with a stock price around $2.09. Key financial ratios indicate an operating loss, with a negative EBITDA margin and return on equity. However, the company maintains a manageable debt level and has a current ratio above 1, suggesting short-term liquidity.
Jeffrey T. Gill has served as Chairman, President, and CEO since October 2016, leading the company's strategic direction.
