description: "Northern Technologies International reported a Q3 FY2026 net loss of $263,000 despite a 12.6% rise in net sales to a record $24.22 million. The loss was driven by a 4.77 percentage point drop in gross margin to 33.6%, caused by higher raw material costs and competitive pricing pressure. However, ZERUST oil and gas sales doubled to $2.22 million, and joint venture income rose 12.2%. Management anticipates margin improvement in Q4 as raw material costs ease."
