- American Superconductor Corp (AMSC) reported a strong revenue of nearly $66 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025, marking the third consecutive quarter at this higher revenue level.

- Research and development (R&D) and selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased to $17.1 million from $13.2 million in the year-ago quarter, primarily due to incremental NWL operating expenses and higher stock compensation expense.
- Non-GAAP net income decreased to $8.9 million or $0.20 per share from $10 million or $0.27 per share in the year-ago quarter.
- The net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $4.8 million or $0.11 per share, slightly down from $4.9 million or $0.13 per share in the year-ago quarter.
