AmpliTech Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMPG, AMPGR, AMPGZ) announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, highlighting a 48.6% year-over-year revenue increase to $5.35 million, up from $3.60 million in the first quarter of 2025. Gross profit surged 116.1% to $2.57 million, while gross margin expanded significantly to 48.0% compared to 33.0% in the prior-year period. The company attributed the strong performance to growing demand for 5G infrastructure, satellite communications, and defense applications.
Revenue from the manufacturing and engineering segment rose sharply to $3.28 million from $0.99 million in the year-ago quarter, reflecting progress in commercializing 5G ORAN radio systems, MMIC chip designs, and proprietary RF technologies. Net loss improved 17.3% to $(1.52) million, and the company ended the quarter with cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $18.4 million, up from $10.2 million in December 2025. Working capital improved to $25.4 million, and the current ratio strengthened to 4.25 from 1.68.
During the quarter, AmpliTech completed a rights offering and a registered direct offering, generating aggregate net proceeds exceeding $16 million to support growth initiatives and operational expansion. The company remains debt-free, with total stockholders' equity of approximately $48.4 million. CEO Fawad Maqbool stated, “The first quarter of 2026 reflects meaningful progress across several areas of our business. We achieved substantial revenue growth YoY, expanded gross margins significantly, strengthened our balance sheet, and continued transitioning key technologies from development into commercial deployment.”
Operational highlights include advancing 5G ORAN radio systems, proprietary RF and microwave technologies, 5G MMIC chip design programs, and satellite and defense communications applications. Research and development expenses decreased year-over-year as several products moved from active development into commercialization. The company believes full-year revenue guidance remains achievable, but expects revenue recognition to be more heavily weighted toward the second half of 2026 based on customer delivery schedules and production timing.

The company operates through five divisions: AmpliTech Inc., Specialty Microwave, Spectrum Semiconductor Materials, AmpliTech Group Microwave Design Center, and AmpliTech Group 5G Divisions.
