Shares of Napco Security Technologies rose after the company reported higher-than-expected sales and earnings, fueled by demand for its high-tech locking products.
The stock gained 11.6% to $41.18 on Monday afternoon. Shares are roughly flat over the past three months.
The provider of security alarms and electric door locks reported $48.2 million in revenue during its fiscal second quarter, a 12% increase from the year before. That was ahead of the $47.8 million expected by analysts, according to FactSet.
Napco had a profit of $13.5 million, or 38 cents a share, up from $10.5 million, or 28 cents a share, the year prior. Analysts were anticipating 32 cents a share.
Sales were driven by recurring service revenue and continued high demand for Napco's door-locking products, Chief Executive Richard Soloway said.
Napco also raised its quarterly dividend by 7% to 15 cents a share.
