R F INDUSTRIES LTD Segments Disclosure
Note 6 – Segment information
We previously managed our business as reportable segments, the RF Connector segment and the Custom Cabling segment. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, we completed changes to the structure of our organization in connection with broader restructuring initiatives, including consolidation of manufacturing operations, headcount reductions, and the transition of our sales organization to a unified, customer‑centric model. As a result of these changes, we now operate as a single reportable segment. Comparative prior‑period segment disclosures that reflected the previous two segments have been revised to conform to this change in our reportable segment.
Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is our Chief Executive Officer, evaluates our financial information such as revenue, margins, operating expenses, net income or loss, and other non- generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measures on a consolidated basis to allocate resources and assess performance. However, while the Company’s CODM uses more than one measure to assess performance, the Company’s segment disclosures do not include non-GAAP disclosures. The Company has determined that the disclosures below correspond with the amounts in the consolidated financial statements and are most consistent with GAAP.
The following table presents our single segment revenue, gross profit, significant expenses, and net income (loss) for the years ended October 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):

About Segments Disclosures
Segment disclosures break a company into its reportable operating units, revealing revenue, profit, and asset allocation that consolidated financial statements obscure. Under ASC 280, segments must match how the chief operating decision maker views the business, providing a window into internal management structure and resource allocation priorities.
Key signals: compare segment margins to identify which units drive profitability and which destroy value. Watch for changes in the number of reportable segments — segment aggregation or disaggregation often coincides with strategic shifts or attempts to obscure declining performance. Intersegment elimination patterns reveal internal pricing practices. The reconciliation between segment totals and consolidated figures exposes corporate overhead allocation and unallocated items. Geographic revenue concentration highlights regulatory and currency exposure. Compare segment-level capital expenditure against segment revenue to assess where management is investing for future growth versus harvesting existing assets.
