VBA IF statement being skipped

Ive been toying with this very simple code and am completely baffled. Below are three different variations i have tried in order to figure out the issue and none have worked. Any help is appreciated.

Original Code:

Sub GetResults()

Set Result = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Results")
Set UTDT = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("UTDT")
Set RADAR = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("RADAR")

Dim y As Long
Dim i As Long
Dim x As Long

For x = 2 To RADAR.UsedRange.Rows.Count
For i = 2 To UTDT.UsedRange.Rows.Count
For y = 2 To Result.UsedRange.Rows.Count


If UTDT.Cells(i, 1) = RADAR.Cells(x, 1) And UTDT.Cells(i, 25) <> RADAR.Cells(x, 2) Then
Result.Cells(y, 1) = Trim(UTDT.Cells(i, 1))
Result.Cells(y, 2) = UTDT.Cells(i, 2)
Result.Cells(y, 3) = UTDT.Cells(i, 3)
Result.Cells(y, 4) = "Update"
End If

Next y
Next i
Next x

End Sub

I then remove the and portion and added a message box to simplify it:

Sub GetResults()

Set Result = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Results")
Set UTDT = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("UTDT")
Set RADAR = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("RADAR")

Dim y As Long
Dim i As Long
Dim x As Long

For x = 2 To RADAR.UsedRange.Rows.Count
For i = 2 To UTDT.UsedRange.Rows.Count
For y = 2 To Result.UsedRange.Rows.Count


If UTDT.Cells(i, 1) = RADAR.Cells(x, 1) Then
MsgBox ("It WORKED!")
 End If

Next y
Next i
Next x

End Sub

Still skips the IF statement. So i decided ill change it to <> in case its skipping because invisible formatting is causing it to be false.. but still no luck:

Sub GetResults()

Set Result = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Results")
Set UTDT = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("UTDT")
Set RADAR = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("RADAR")

Dim y As Long
Dim i As Long
Dim x As Long

For x = 2 To RADAR.UsedRange.Rows.Count
For i = 2 To UTDT.UsedRange.Rows.Count
For y = 2 To Result.UsedRange.Rows.Count


If UTDT.Cells(i, 1) <> RADAR.Cells(x, 1) Then
MsgBox ("It WORKED!")
 End If

Next y
Next i
Next x

End Sub

any help is REALLY appreciated
