Richardson Electronics Ltd (NASDAQ: RELL) is an electronics distribution and manufacturing company that sources and sells specialty power and microwave components, green energy power management products, custom display solutions, and medical imaging parts. Revenue is transactional, generated through product sales across four operating segments: Power and Microwave Technologies (PMT), Green Energy Solutions (GES), Canvys, and Healthcare. PMT holds exclusive distribution rights from many of its suppliers, often with global coverage, and also sells proprietary products under owned trade names including Amperex, Cetron, and National. In FY2025 (fiscal year ended May 31, 2025), consolidated net sales rose 6.3% versus FY2024, driven by PMT growth of 7.0% in engineered solutions for semiconductor wafer fabrication and RF and wireless components, GES growth of 23.6% from green energy power management applications, and a 2.2% increase in Canvys. Healthcare sales fell 23.1% following the January 2025 asset sale to DirectMed Imaging. Two suppliers each represented more than 10% of total cost of sales in FY2025. The company operates across North America, Asia/Pacific, Europe, and Latin America.
Specialty power tubes, thyratrons, rectifiers, ignitrons, magnetrons, phototubes, microwave generators, ultracapacitor modules, liquid crystal display monitors (sold under Amperex, Cetron, and National trade names); RF and wireless components; engineered solutions for semiconductor wafer fabrication; power management products for green energy applications; custom display solutions (Canvys); Siemens CT X-ray tube repair and ALTA CT X-ray tube manufacturing (retained under supply agreement with DirectMed post-divestiture).
Transactional product sales across four segments: PMT (specialty power and microwave components with exclusive supplier distribution agreements), GES (power management products for green energy applications), Canvys (custom display solutions), and Healthcare (CT X-ray tube repair and manufacturing, substantially divested to DirectMed in January 2025 with a 10-year exclusive supply agreement retained).
End markets include semiconductor wafer fabrication, RF and wireless communications, green energy (including wind turbines and EV locomotives), industrial power, and medical imaging. GES customers include power management applications across numerous green energy verticals. Canvys serves North American display solution customers. Healthcare customers were largely transitioned to DirectMed following the January 2025 asset sale.
Operations in North America, Asia/Pacific, Europe, and Latin America (as of FY2025 10-K filed August 4, 2025). Some products manufactured in China and imported into the United States, subject to U.S. tariffs.
