Estimated value range

unavailable — no valuation method could be computed

Valuation assumptions are editorial choices, not measured; beta is not measured.

Valuation methods

  • DCF (discounted cash flow)unavailable · the reported interest expense is far older than the latest period (the filer changed its XBRL tag): a stale figure is not used
  • Peers: EV/EBITDAunavailable · net debt missing: EV cannot be bridged to equity (missing debt is not zero)
  • Peers: P/Eunavailable · the base of the ratio is not positive
  • Dividend discount (DDM)unavailable · the company pays no dividend: a dividend model needs an explicit initiation assumption

no valuation method could be computed

Multiple comparisons use the SIC vertical: Stone, clay, glass and concrete (SIC 32xx)

Classification (SIC) comparables group by industry code, not by economic activity; the direct group is an editorial selection by activity. Members' multiples are on their own trailing twelve months, at their own latest close.

    In brief

    CPS Technologies makes metal matrix composite components, hermetic packaging and HybridTech Armor® lightweight armor for transportation, energy, electronics, aerospace and defense customers. Fiscal 2025 revenue rose 54% 1, and in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 the company reported 8.3 million USD in revenue 3, as it prepares to move into a new operating facility.

    SWOT

    Strengths

    • The company has proprietary know-how in MMC materials and manufacturing processes protected by its intellectual property 1.
    • The product portfolio is qualified with several large electronics OEMs, and in some hermetic packages the company is the sole source 1.
    • Return to the SBIR and STTR programs strengthens funding for development and the intellectual property portfolio 1.

    Weaknesses

    • Dependence on a small number of large customers makes revenue sensitive to changes in orders 1.
    • Gross margins came under pressure in the first half of fiscal 2026 and the net result was a loss 2.
    • Some production equipment is aging, and the company may need significant investment to modernize it 1.

    Opportunities

    • Demand from semiconductor and defense customers could support new orders, as the growth in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 suggests 3.
    • The AlMax material licensed from Triton Systems could open new applications, such as helicopter bearing liners 1.
    • The new facility could raise production capacity if the move proceeds without delays 13.

    Threats

    • Tariffs and changes in trade policy could reduce margins or the competitiveness of exported products 12.
    • Larger competitors with greater financial resources could cut prices or develop more advanced products 1.
    • Swings in gold and raw material prices could hurt profitability if costs cannot be passed on to customers 12.

    Risks

    • Customer concentrationhigh

      A small number of customers generates a large share of revenue, and losing a major customer could be hard to replace 1.

    • Long sales cyclemedium

      Sales can take months or years, which makes it hard to forecast revenue by quarter 1.

    • Facility relocationhigh

      Moving to a new plant could bring unexpected costs and production disruption 13.

    • Single-source suppliersmedium

      Some plating vendors are sole-sourced, so a price increase or delay could affect revenue 1.

    • Raw material costs and tariffsmedium

      Gold prices and tariffs can compress margins, especially when costs cannot be passed on to customers 12.

    Investment thesis

    What would need to be true (bull case)

    • If demand from semiconductor and defense customers holds, quarterly revenue could keep growing, as the second-quarter fiscal 2026 rebound suggests 3.
    • The company's unique position in AlSiC hermetic packages and its SBIR programs could open new production orders 1.
    • Capital raised through the secondary offering could fund the relocation and new product investment 3.

    What would break the thesis

    • If tariffs and gold costs keep rising, margins could stay under pressure 2.
    • Customer concentration could leave revenue exposed to order cuts, as seen in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 12.
    • Relocation and equipment investment could produce losses before benefits become visible 13.

    What to watch

    • Completion of negotiations for the new facility and the move timetableQ3 2026
    • Gross margin trend after higher gold costs and tariffsQ3 2026
    • New orders from semiconductor and defense customers and progress of SBIR programs2027

    Products, market & competition

    The business

    CPS Technologies Corp. is a Massachusetts advanced materials company founded in 1984 and listed on Nasdaq since 1987 1. It designs, manufactures and sells high-performance material solutions based on metal matrix composites (MMCs), which combine metals and ceramics for thermal conductivity, stiffness and lower weight 1. Products are custom-built to customer specifications and sold on a build-to-order basis, without long-term production contracts 1.

    Customer concentration is high: in fiscal 2025 three customers accounted for 64% of revenue 1. Management says many new product opportunities exist, some of which could lead to significant production orders in the coming years, while others will take longer to develop 1.

    Segments

    Metal matrix composite (MMC) components

    This is the main line, with baseplates and heat spreaders for IGBT power modules and components for high-speed trains, mass transit, electric and hybrid vehicles, HVDC stations and wind turbines 1. AlSiC parts are made close to net shape, and management says demand grows as wide-band-gap semiconductors such as SiC spread 1.

    Hermetic packaging

    Hermetic packages serve high-reliability applications such as satellites, avionics and GPS systems and communications modules 1. The company says it is the only producer it knows of making hermetic packages with AlSiC bases 1. Customers typically buy prototype and evaluation quantities first, with production volumes following after one to three years 1.

    HybridTech Armor®

    The MMC armor has been installed on the strikefaces of U.S. Navy aircraft carrier weapons stations, starting with the USS Abraham Lincoln 1. A 2025 U.S. Navy-funded program covers replacing steel panels on the Amphibious Combat Vehicle with a lighter solution 1.

    Trends

    • Electrification of transport and energytailwind

      Demand for SiC and GaN power modules used in trains, electric vehicles and HVDC stations could support growth in the company's AlSiC baseplates 1.

    • Defense and space demandtailwind

      Government-funded SBIR programs and components for satellites and naval armor could expand the portfolio if these programs turn into production contracts 1.

    • Gold and raw material pricesheadwind

      Higher gold prices and tariffs compress margins, because costs are not always fully passed on to customers 2.

    • Move to a new facilitymixed

      Relocating to a new plant could add capacity, but it also brings costs and disruption during the transition 13.

    Competitive position

    The primary competitor for MMC baseplates is Denka, a large Japanese chemical company, and several major customers buy from this competitor 12. Emerging Chinese manufacturers offering lower-priced products are also cited as potential competitors 1.

    The company says technical differentiation, quality and reliability are its strengths, but price-sensitive customers could force price reductions 1. Exchange rate swings can make its products more or less competitive against foreign rivals 1.

    • Foreign suppliers of high-performance components

      Competitors based outside the United States whose position against the dollar can affect the company's competitiveness 1.

    • Makers of packaging and armor from traditional materials

      Companies using steel, ceramics or other conventional materials, against which MMC solutions are compared in defense applications 1.
