Interlink Electronics trims Q1 loss as sensor demand drives 15% revenue growth

Interlink Electronics (NASDAQ:LINK) reported a 15% year-over-year increase in revenue for the first quarter of 2026, driven by a significant uptick in shipments of its core force-sensing and printed electronics technologies.

The technology provider posted quarterly revenue of $3.07 million, up from the prior-year period.

Improved factory utilization and product mix lifted the company’s gross margin to 43.5%, a substantial increase from the 35.6% recorded in the first quarter of 2025.

Top-line momentum helped Interlink sharply reduce its bottom-line losses.

The company’s net loss narrowed to $338,000 for the quarter, down from a net loss of $805,000 in the same three-month period a year earlier.

Adjusted EBITDA also showed an upward trajectory, finishing at $(168,000) compared with a deficit of $(623,000) last year.

Beyond its core financial recovery, Interlink announced several strategic initiatives aimed at expanding its global manufacturing footprint and deepening its reach into the healthcare and medical wearable tech sectors.

The company has executed a non-binding letter of intent (LOI) to acquire a high-performance manufacturing provider, a move intended to scale its internal production capacity.

On the product development front, Interlink is advancing its specialized electronic applications.

The firm is currently supporting custom electrodes integrated into connected testing platforms that are heading toward clinical trials.

Concurrently, engineering teams are developing a third-generation wearable device utilizing Interlink's proprietary conductive transfer process.
