$VPG

Vishay Precision Group, Inc. (NYSE:VPG), which emerged from Vishay Intertechnology in 2010, has experienced a notable decline in sales and profitability. In the past two years, the company has seen its sales decrease by 8.1% annually. Its operating margin has deteriorated, falling by 3.9 percentage points over the last five years.

Financial struggles are further highlighted by its earnings per share, which have decreased by 13.4% annually over the same period, despite a growth in revenue. As of the latest trading period, the company’s shares are priced at $23.52, trading at a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 22.6x, which might raise valuation concerns given the company’s recent performance trends.

Vishay Precision is expected to release its financial results for the quarter ended March 2025 on May 6. Additionally, revenue for the quarter is anticipated to be $73.1 million, down 9.5% from the year-ago quarter. The company operates within the Electronics – Miscellaneous Components sector, which is currently positioned in the bottom 42% of over 250 industries ranked by Zacks.

As Vishay Precision Group continues to navigate these turbulent market conditions, the company’s ability to refine its operational strategies and enhance product offerings will be crucial. The upcoming quarterly report will likely provide further insights into the company’s progress on these fronts and its potential trajectory in the near term.
