1.b. Last Insights on NPK

Negative drivers behind National Presto Industries' recent performance include a significant increase in defense sales, which may indicate a lack of diversification in its revenue streams. The company's reliance on a $1 billion backlog may also limit its ability to pay dividends, potentially impacting shareholder value. Additionally, the appointment of a new board member with experience in critical infrastructure and transportation projects may not have a direct impact on the company's short-term performance.
