ASTROTECH REPORTS FISCAL YEAR 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Austin, Texas – September 25, 2025 – Astrotech Corporation (Nasdaq: ASTC) (the “Company” or “Astrotech”) reported its financial results for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.

Financial Highlights & Fiscal Year Developments 

● Revenue decreased to $1.0 million as Astrotech’s subsidiary, 1st Detect, sold less devices compared to prior year. Gross margin increased to 45.3% for the year compared to 45.1% in the prior year, due to device sales in fiscal year 2025 having a higher margin compared to the device sales in fiscal year 2024.

● As of June 30, 2025, the Company has deployed the TRACER 1000 in approximately 34 locations in 16 countries across the United States, Europe and Asia.

● The Company announced the formation of a new wholly owned subsidiary, EN-SCAN, Inc., to manufacture and sell a new line of instruments built for environmental testing applications using its proprietary ATi Gas Chromatograph and Astrotech Mass Spectrometer Technology™.  The EN-SCAN new product line is designed to be used by non-technical end-users in harsh environments to analyze environmental gases, liquids, and solids.

● 1^st Detect Corporation launched its enhanced TRACER 1000 Narcotics Trace Detector. The TRACER 1000 NTD is a high-performance laboratory instrument capable of rapid detection of trace levels of narcotic compounds in seconds. The TRACER 1000 NTD and the TRACER 1000 ETD together provide a comprehensive protection platform that can be applied across various markets including airports, border security, checkpoint, cargo, infrastructure security, correctional facilities, military, and law enforcement.

● On January 14, 2025, our 1st Detect subsidiary announced that it was awarded research and development contract 70RSAT24CB0000015 with the Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”) to research, develop and mature the TRACER 1000 for DHS next generation explosives trace detection.

● 1^st Detect Corporation made its first sale and deployment of its TRACER 1000 Narcotics Trace Detector in Vietnam.  This milestone marks a significant step in expanding the 1^st Detect footprint across Southeast Asia and reinforces its commitment to enhancing narcotics trace detection inspection capabilities.

● Astrotech’s consolidated balance sheet consisted of $18.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and liquid investments as of June 30, 2025, which the Company believes will support the Company’s organic growth and research and development.

“Our mission is simple - to make the benefits of precise mass spectrometry and gas chromatography accessible to organizations in our focus markets.  Our mass spectrometry products have a strong international presence, serving multiple markets. Our gas chromatography products deliver meaningful advantages by meeting real-time, on-site industry demands.  Our servicing has been expanded, and we now serve Asia, Europe and the United States. We believe our sales team’s commitment to excellence and their ability to respond to market opportunities will drive our growth in the next fiscal year,” stated Thomas B. Pickens, III, Astrotech’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer.
