Restructuring - Fiscal 2026 Subsequent to year end, on March 20, 2025, we announced our restructuring actions for fiscal 2026 which include the reduction of approximately 10% of the Company’s global workforce, primarily in the PI segment, and the realignment of its underperforming MTEX operation in Portugal. As part of this initiative, AstroNova has cut approximately 70% of the MTEX product portfolio, phasing out low-volume, low-profit models and prioritizing higher-margin products that capitalize on the Company’s consumables business. In addition, all MTEX sales, marketing and customer support functions have been integrated into AstroNova’s global teams. The restructuring action is expected to achieve projected annualized cost savings of $3.0 million.
