National Presto Industries, Inc. (‘National Presto’) provides Housewares/Small Appliance, Defense, and Safety products.

Segments

The company consists of three business segments: Housewares/Small Appliance, Defense, and Safety.

The Housewares/Small Appliance segment designs, markets, and distributes housewares and small electrical appliances, including pressure cookers and canners, kitchen electrics, and comfort appliances that enrich the lives of consumers by making life easier, more productive, and more enjoyable.

The Defense segment protects the lives of the citizens of its nation, as well as the citizens of its nation’s allies, by providing its warfighters with reliable products. It manufactures 40mm ammunition, precision mechanical and electro-mechanical assemblies, medium caliber cartridge cases, and metal parts; performs Load, Assemble, and Pack (LAP) operations on ordnance-related products primarily for the United States Government and prime contractors; and manufactures detonators, booster pellets, release cartridges, lead azide, other military energetic devices and materials, and assemblies.

The Safety segment, which provides innovative safety technology empowering organizations and individuals to protect what is most important, currently consists of two startup companies.

The first is OneEvent Technologies, Inc., which offers systems that provide early warning of conditions that could ultimately lead to significant losses. The initial application combines patented machine learning, digital sensors, and cloud-based technology to continuously monitor freezers and refrigerators, instantly detecting and alerting users to potential safety issues around pharmaceuticals and food. The OneEvent system also has the ability to continually measure other factors, such as smoke, carbon monoxide, motion, humidity, and moisture. The second is Rely Innovations, Inc., which offers carbon monoxide alarms with large digital displays and an array of voice messages that clearly inform of incipient danger. It also markets an economy line of carbon monoxide and smoke alarms.

Housewares/Small Appliance Segment

Housewares and electrical appliances sold by the segment include pressure cookers and canners; the Presto Control Master heat control line of skillets in several sizes, griddles, woks, and multi-purpose cookers; slow cookers; deep fryers of various sizes; waffle makers; pizza ovens; slicer/shredders; electric heaters; corn poppers (hot air, oil, and microwave); dehydrators; vacuum sealers; microwave bacon cookers; coffeemakers and coffeemaker accessories; electric knife sharpeners; and timers. Pressure cookers and canners are available in various sizes and are fabricated of aluminum and, in the case of cookers, of stainless steel, as well.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, approximately 10% of consolidated net sales were provided by cast products (griddles, waffle makers, die-cast deep fryers, skillets, and multi-cookers), and approximately 15% by noncast/thermal appliances (stamped cookers and canners, pizza ovens, corn poppers, coffee makers, microwave bacon cookers, dehydrators, slow cookers, electric stainless steel appliances, non-cast fryers, air fryers, and heaters). For the year ended December 31, 2024, Amazon.com, Inc. accounted for 10% of the company’s consolidated net sales.

Products are sold primarily in the United States and Canada directly to retailers and also through independent distributors. The majority of the housewares and electrical appliances are sourced from vendors in the Orient.

The segment has a sales force of six employees that sell to and service most customers. A few selected accounts are handled by manufacturers' representatives who may also sell other product lines. Sales promotional activities have been conducted primarily through the use of in-store promotions and digital advertising. The business is seasonal, with the normal peak sales period occurring in the fourth quarter of the year prior to the holiday season.

The segment primarily warehouses and distributes its products from distribution centers located in Canton and Jackson, Mississippi. Selective use is made of leased tractors and trailers.

Defense Segment

Each of the segment’s operating companies are subsidiaries of National Defense Corporation.

AMTEC Corporation (‘AMTEC’) was acquired on February 24, 2001, and manufactures 40mm ammunition, and precision mechanical and electro-mechanical products for the United States Department of Defense (DOD) and DOD prime contractors. AMTEC’s 106,000 square foot manufacturing facility located in Janesville, Wisconsin, is focused on producing niche market ordnance products (such as training ammunition, fuzes, firing devices, and initiators). AMTEC is also the prime contractor for the 40mm ammunition system to the DOD.

Spectra Technologies LLC (‘Spectra’), a subsidiary of AMTEC, was acquired on July 31, 2003, and is engaged in the manufacture and delivery of munitions and ordnance-related products for the DOD and DOD prime contractors. Spectra maintains 384,000 square feet of space located in East Camden, Arkansas, dedicated primarily to LAP type work.

Amron, a division of AMTEC (‘Amron’), holds the assets that were purchased from Amron LLC on January 30, 2006. Amron manufactures cartridge cases used in medium caliber ammunition (20mm, 25mm, 30mm, 40mm, and 50mm) primarily for the DOD and DOD prime contractors, which includes the 40mm systems program previously mentioned. The Amron manufacturing facility is 212,000 square feet and is located in Antigo, Wisconsin.

Tech Ord, a division of AMTEC (‘Tech Ord’), holds the assets formerly owned by Chemring Energetic Devices, Inc.’s business located in Clear Lake, South Dakota, and all of the real property previously owned by Technical Ordnance Realty, LLC. These assets were acquired on January 24, 2014. Tech Ord manufactures in its 124,000 square foot Clear Lake facility detonators, booster pellets, release cartridges, lead azide, and other military energetic devices and materials. Its major customers include the United States and foreign government agencies, AMTEC, and other defense contractors.

The equity interests of Woodlawn Manufacturing, Ltd. (‘Woodlawn’), a subsidiary of National Defense Corporation and its newly formed subsidiary, Woodlawn Manufacturing LLC, were acquired on October 26, 2022. Woodlawn is engaged in the manufacture of metal parts and assemblies primarily for the DOD and DOD prime contractors. The Woodlawn manufacturing facility is 56,500 square feet and is located in Marshall, Texas.

The Defense segment competes for its business primarily on the basis of technical competence, product quality, manufacturing experience, and price. This segment operates in a highly competitive environment with many other organizations, some of which are larger and others that are smaller.

On April 25, 2005, AMTEC was awarded the high volume, five-year prime contract for management and production of the United States Army’s (the ‘Army’) 40mm Ammunition System. The Army selected AMTEC as one of two prime contractors responsible for supplying all requirements for 40mm practice and tactical ammunition for a period of five years, with AMTEC receiving the majority share of the business. On February 18, 2010, the Army awarded AMTEC a second five-year contract for the management and production of the 40mm Ammunition System. As in the original five-year contract, AMTEC was awarded the majority share of the 40mm requirement. In addition, as part of an acquisition of a group of assets from DSE, Inc., a 40mm competitor, which was completed on November 7, 2013, AMTEC acquired through a novation agreement, representing the remaining undelivered portion of the award that had been given to AMTEC’s competitor under the second five-year contract mentioned above. Total deliveries for the systems program under the novated DSE, Inc. 40mm contract were completed in 2018. AMTEC submitted its bid for a third contract, and although the FY15 (Army’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2014) bid request was subsequently cancelled, the 40mm program requirements remained and were subsequently awarded to AMTEC as the Army’s FY16 40mm requirements in a single award. Final deliveries for the FY16 contract were completed in 2019. On August 30, 2017, the Army awarded AMTEC, as the sole prime contractor, a third five-year 40mm system contract covering FY17-21 requirements. The value of awards for the FY17 through FY21, with deliveries scheduled to complete in 2026. On September 23, 2022, the Army awarded AMTEC, as the sole prime contractor, a fourth five-year 40mm system contract covering FY22-26 requirements.

On May 13, 2024, the Army awarded AMTEC a five-year Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for production of the 40mm M918E2 High Velocity Target Practice - Day/Night/Thermal (TP-DNT) cartridge. The M918E2 TP-DNT Cartridge allows the warfighters to train as they fight by delivering a projectile whose impact signature can be seen day or night, by unaided eye, and through current thermal and night vision sights.

During 2024, almost all of the work performed by this segment directly or indirectly for the DOD was performed on a fixed-price basis. The Defense segment’s contracts and subcontracts contain the customary provision permitting termination at any time for the convenience of the government, with payment for any work completed, associated profit, and inventory/work in progress at the time of termination. The segment’s business does not tend to be seasonal.

Safety Segment

The Safety segment was formed in the third quarter of 2019 with the purchase of substantially all of the assets of OneEvent Technologies, Inc. (‘OneEvent’) on July 23, 2019. The segment currently consists of OneEvent and Rely Innovations, Inc. (‘Rely’). In November of 2023, the company divested itself of a subsidiary, Rusoh, Inc., that was previously included in this segment.

OneEvent leases 4,300 square feet in Mount Horeb, Wisconsin. Established in 2014, OneEvent’s cloud-based learning and analytics engine utilizes a series of sensing devices integrated with a cellular gateway to predict and alert in a timely fashion so that the customer has an opportunity to prevent a loss. Sensors measure a variety of environmental data, including temperature, smoke, carbon monoxide, humidity, water, motion, and more. The initial application combines patented machine learning, digital sensors, and cloud-based technology to continuously monitor freezers and refrigerators, instantly detecting and alerting users to potential mechanical issues which can in turn affect the maintenance of critical temperatures for the safe storage of pharmaceuticals and food. The system detects anomalies in defrost and refrigeration cycles, enabling it to provide notice days or even weeks in advance of a potential malfunction. With these alerts, customers can act proactively to correct the situation and prevent the loss or deterioration of valuable pharmaceuticals or foods well in advance of an equipment failure.

The company purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Knox Safety, Inc. on July 29, 2022, forming Rely. Rely leases 4,300 square feet in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and 5,600 square feet in Lisle, Illinois. Established in 2019, Knox Safety designed and sold carbon monoxide detectors for residential use.

Rusoh, Inc. was formed in 2012 to design and market an owner-maintained, multipurpose, reloadable, dry chemical fire extinguisher and was the first portable owner-maintained fire extinguisher.

The operations of the two businesses that comprise the Safety segment are startup in nature and have resulted in limited revenues. The segment has a sales force of two employees that sell to and service most customers. It also utilizes a few manufacturers' representatives who may also sell other product lines. New product introductions are an important part of the segment's sales to enhance its product offerings.

The segment primarily warehouses and distributes its products from distribution centers located in Canton and Jackson, Mississippi, as well as Mount Horeb and Eau Claire, Wisconsin.

Effects of Compliance with Environmental and Other Regulations

The company is also subject to various other federal, state, and local laws affecting its business, as well as a variety of regulations relating to such matters as working conditions, equal employment opportunities, and product safety. These regulations stem from regulatory bodies or laws, such as the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, the US Food and Drug Administration, California’s Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65), the US Department of Transportation, and authorities having jurisdiction for fire safety and refrigeration equipment.
