(Nasdaq: POCI) (the "Company"), a leading designer and manufacturer of advanced optical instruments for the medical and defense/aerospace industries, today announced it has made the strategic decision to move its corporate offices, including executive leadership, product development engineering, program management, human resources, business development and accounting, from Gardner, MA to Littleton, MA. The move allows for the consolidation of dedicated production capabilities at POC’s existing facilities in Gardner to meet the Company’s growing production backlog, which stood at an all-time high at the end of the most recent quarter. This new facility in Littleton, along with a new facility in South Portland, Maine, also allows POC access to a broader engineering talent pool to execute on the Company’s ongoing product development pipeline. Joe Forkey, CEO of Precision Optics, commented. “As our business has grown, it has become evident that we need to expand our production facilities in a cost-efficient manner to meet our growing backlog; and we need to access the best possible engineering talent that Massachusetts and Maine have to offer. Today’s announcement accomplishes both of these objectives.” Effective August 1st, 2025, we expect the Company’s new corporate headquarters will be 550 King St, Building A, Suite 100, Littleton, MA.
