Strattec Security's 1Q26 results show a record-breaking quarter in terms of revenues and, most importantly, margins. The company is expanding at 10% YoY, with gross margins growing almost 400 bps, leading to a substantial 100% jump in net income. This is in part driven by pricing. In the short term (next two quarters), the company expects challenges from supply chain disruptions to the global auto industry (especially in the US).
