Gentex 2025 Q3 Earnings Revenue Grows 7.7% as Net Income Falls 17.7%

Gentex (GNTX) reported fiscal 2025 Q3 earnings on Nov 8, 2025, with revenue rising 7.7% year-over-year but net income declining. The company’s stock has fallen 11.76% month-to-date despite a 1.82% gain in the latest trading day.

Gentex’s Q3 revenue totaled $655.24 million, up from $608.53 million in 2024 Q3, slightly below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $673.73 million. The company provided full-year 2025 revenue guidance of $2.65–$2.7 billion, aligning with current market expectations.

Revenue

The automotive products segment led Gentex’s performance, generating $573.66 million in revenue, driven by strong sales in Japan and Germany. Premium audio products contributed $42.99 million, while the “other” segment, encompassing fire protection, dimmable aircraft windows, and biometrics, added $38.58 million. The VOXX acquisition notably boosted consolidated sales by $84.9 million.

Earnings/Net Income

Gentex’s net income fell to $100.89 million in Q3, a 17.7% decline from $122.55 million in the prior-year period. Earnings per share (EPS) dropped 14.8% to $0.46, slightly missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.47. The reduction reflects operational challenges and inflationary pressures, though gross profit expanded to $225.2 million, up from $204.1 million in 2024 Q3. While the margin expansion is positive, the EPS decline signals short-term earnings pressure.

Post-Earnings Price Action Review

The strategy of buying GNTX on revenue beats and holding for 30 days appears viable, supported by Gentex’s 7.7% revenue growth and analyst confidence in its long-term potential. Despite a modest EPS miss and stock price volatility, the company’s resilience in navigating supply chain challenges and strategic investments in R&D and digital manufacturing underscore its market positioning. Analysts highlight the GF Value of $39.60, suggesting potential upside, though investors must monitor macroeconomic headwinds and sector-specific risks.

CEO Commentary

CEO Patrick Joyce emphasized Gentex’s innovation in connected car technologies and ADAS, calling it a “key differentiator.” He acknowledged near-term macroeconomic pressures but expressed confidence in the company’s long-term trajectory, with CAPEX prioritized for digital manufacturing and high-impact initiatives.

Guidance

Gentex projects full-year 2025 revenue of $2.65–$2.7 billion and EPS of $1.80–$1.90, reflecting cost discipline and margin expansion. Q4 revenue is expected to reach $700–$720 million, with a focus on mitigating inflation through pricing strategies and supplier collaboration.
