<div id="readability-page-1"><p>Executives at OSI Systems <span>NASDAQ: OSIS<span></span></span> highlighted a multi-year shift toward broader technology offerings, increased service-based contracting, and expanding U.S. government opportunities during a conference discussion with Oppenheimer analyst Christopher Glynn.</p><h2>Security division: from mid-sized player to market leader</h2> <p>An OSI executive identified as the “Operator” said the company’s Security division has progressed over the past five to 10 years from “a medium-sized player to a real market leader in security detection.” He attributed that evolution to a strategy of offering “most of the technologies” customers might need, rather than focusing on a single platform. </p><p>According to the executive, OSI combined internal development with acquisitions, including the purchase of “one of our primary competitors in the cargo space” nearly a decade ago. He said the deal helped OSI combine “strong, medium and high energy” cargo and vehicle inspection capabilities with “a low energy setting,” enabling “combinational technologies” that supported the company’s rise to a leadership position in cargo and vehicle inspection for ports, borders, and critical infrastructure. </p><p>The executive also described a business model expansion beyond traditional equipment sales supported by recurring service revenue. OSI pursued what it calls turnkey solutions, or “our version of SaaS, meaning Security as a Service,” targeted at customers who either lack the capital to buy systems or the operational expertise to run them. </p><p>He said OSI was “the first company to do this” and won multiple contracts, and that the approach led to the development of proprietary software called <strong>CertScan</strong>, which he said has helped differentiate OSI in both service-based contracts and conventional product offerings.  </p><h2>Optoelectronics: strong growth with defense a key contributor</h2> <p>In OSI’s Optoelectronics and Manufacturing segment, the executive said performance has been “extremely well” with “strong double-digit growth for a number of consecutive quarters,” even though the underlying markets are typically “more of a mid-single digit type growth market.” He emphasized the segment’s diversification across end markets such as aerospace and defense, healthcare, automotive, and industrial, noting there is no significant customer concentration and that it serves “a lot of blue-chip customers throughout these industries.” </p><p>He said aerospace and defense has been “leading the charge” behind the faster growth. When asked about potential upside from munitions replenishment, the executive said it was “harder to quantify” at the moment but could become “a nice source of growth” as the company moves into fiscal 2027, which he noted begins in “just under two months.” </p><p>The executive also underscored the strategic value of Optoelectronics as an internal supplier to OSI’s other segments. He said the unit is “a very key supplier to our sister divisions, both Security and Healthcare,” and that the vertical integration helps enhance OSI’s overall gross margin while improving responsiveness to customers.  </p><h2>Management addresses sharp stock move and discusses bookings context</h2> <p>Glynn raised the company’s stock decline of roughly 15% on the day and questioned whether investors were worried about a lull in smaller and mid-sized Security orders, particularly given a large “Homeland Defense” booking that he suggested could have masked underlying trends. </p><p>The OSI executive said the company believed it delivered “a solid quarter,” and he said the multi-year outlook “continues to look very favorable.” He added that he was “surprised by the reaction” and that others he had spoken with were similarly surprised because “the quarter was solid and the results and the outlook are good as well.” </p><p>On bookings, he said OSI was “very happy with the overall bookings and the book-to-bill ratio,” while acknowledging that “a big part of that was the Homeland Defense order.” He added that booking timing was affected by two factors during the quarter: </p><ul>   <li><strong>U.S. government shutdown:</strong> The executive said OSI had been anticipating “significant U.S. government orders” in the March quarter that “shifted to the right while the government was shut down.”</li>   <li><strong>Middle East conflict:</strong> He said the Middle East is typically “very fertile territory” for bookings, but when the conflict broke out late in the quarter, “you’re not seeing a whole lot of new bookings activity.”</li> </ul> <p>He said these dynamics did not change OSI’s overall timeline expectations and reiterated optimism tied to the reopening of the government and the potential “wind down of the Middle East conflict.” In follow-up, he agreed with Glynn that OSI often sees a “consistent flow” of shorter-cycle Middle East orders during normal conditions.  </p><h2>U.S. growth outlook: CBP, broader agencies, and Golden Dome follow-ons</h2> <p>The executive said OSI expects the U.S. to “step up” as a growth driver in the coming years. He noted that recent growth in Security has been driven by international markets, which he said remain robust, but added that looking toward fiscal 2027 and 2028, OSI anticipates more U.S. momentum. </p><p>Specifically, he pointed to potential orders from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), referencing funding “through the One Big Beautiful Bill” as well as “their existing budgets.” He also mentioned Golden Dome as another factor that “suggests that the U.S. growth could be quite significant for us going forward.” </p><p>When asked about Golden Dome replication internationally, the executive declined to comment on other countries, citing the sensitivity of such programs, but said the RF solutions technology involved “can be used on a global basis.” </p><p>On CBP competitiveness, he said it was OSI’s understanding that the company is viewed “very favorably” by CBP, citing delivery of “high quality products, on time, on schedule.” He said OSI has historically received “a decently high % of the overall awards” and that it would “hope that we could maintain or increase that %,” while acknowledging “lots of factors” affect awards. </p><p>He added that OSI works with multiple U.S. government agencies, including within the Department of Defense and the Department of State, and said the U.S. government is “fertile territory” where the company expects to continue receiving its “fair share of awards.”  </p><h2>RF business scaling, capacity investments, and earn-out structure</h2> <p>Discussing the company’s RF-related business and a major Homeland Defense award, the executive said OSI operates in “a lot of classified programs,” limiting what it can disclose about competition. However, he said OSI is “extremely well-positioned” and believes it is positioned for “follow-on awards as well,” citing favorable customer feedback on service levels and product quality. He also confirmed the large Homeland Defense award referenced by Glynn was with “a single customer.” </p><p>On investments, the executive said OSI continues to make “significant investments in R&amp;D,” with the “bulk” directed to the Security division. While describing OSI as “not a highly capital-intensive business,” he said the company did make incremental capital expenditures to expand capacity in “new facilities in the RF business,” which he said has proven valuable given both existing growth and the new Homeland Defense opportunity. </p><p>He also noted CEO Ajay Mehra has been in the role for about 16 months and has brought “tremendous energy,” and said the company has seen “significant, top line and bottom line growth” during that period. He added OSI is nearing the end of its fiscal year and expects to start its new fiscal year on July 1. </p><p>In closing remarks about the RF acquisition, the executive said Golden Dome “wasn’t even really a concept” during diligence, and characterized it as “a little bit even on top of the already strong business” OSI acquired. He confirmed the deal included “a two-year earn-out period.”</p><h2>About OSI Systems <span>NASDAQ: OSIS<span></span></span></h2><p>OSI Systems, Inc <span>NASDAQ: OSIS<span></span></span> is a publicly traded technology company founded in 1987 and headquartered in Hawthorne, California.
