B.O.S. Reports Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results

RISHON LE ZION, Israel, November 26, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – B.O.S. Better Online Solutions Ltd. (“BOS” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BOSC), a global provider of intelligent systems and services for production and logistics, reported its financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2019.
 
Revenues for the third quarter grew by 3% to $7.9 million from $7.7 million in the comparable quarter last year. Revenues for the first nine months of 2019 grew by 4% to $24.5 million from $23.6 million in the first nine months of 2018.

Supply Chain division revenues for the third quarter of 2019 decreased slightly to $4.65 million as compared to $4.75 million in the third quarter of 2018. Supply Chain division revenues for the first nine months of 2019 grew by 6% to $14.2 million from $13.5 million in the first nine months of 2018. 

Intelligent Robotics and RFID division revenues for the third quarter of 2019 grew by 9% to $3.3 million as compared to $3.0 million in the third quarter of 2018. Intelligent Robotics and RFID division revenues for the first nine months of 2019 were $10.3 million as compared to $10.2 million in the first nine months of 2018.  The increase in revenues of the Intelligent Robotics and RFID division in the third quarter is attributed to the robotics line, which was acquired from Imdecol in June 2019. Currently, revenues attributed to the robotics line are recognized upon delivery.

Gross margin for the third quarter of 2019 was 17.3% as compared to 20.8% in the comparable quarter last year. Gross margin for the first nine months of 2019 was 19.5% as compared to 20.5% in the comparable period last year.

The Supply Chain division’s gross margin for the third quarter of 2019 was 17.1% as compared to 20.2% in the comparable quarter last year. However, the gross margin for the first nine months of 2019 increased to 19.4% as compared to 18.4% in the same period last year.

The Intelligent Robotics and RFID division’s gross margin for the third quarter of 2019 was 17.7% as compared to 21.4% in the comparable quarter last year. Gross margin for the first nine months of 2019 was 19.2% of revenues as compared to 23.1% in the comparable period last year. The decrease in gross margin is attributed mainly to the robotics line. 
During the third quarter of 2019 the Company recorded a Goodwill write-off of $614,000 related to its robotics acquisition, which closed in June 2019. The Company expects to deduct the write-off amount from future earn-out payments, if any, that would otherwise have been payable to Imdecol for its robotics business.  
 
Net loss for the third quarter of 2019 was $754,000 or ($0.18) per basic share as compared to net income of $216,000 or $0.06 per basic share in the third quarter of 2018. Net loss for the first nine months of 2019 was $578,000 or ($0.15) per basic share as compared to net income of $613,000 or $0.18 per basic share in the first nine months of 2018.

Non-GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2019 was $55,000 or ($0.01) per basic share as compared to non-GAAP net income of $249,000 or $0.07 per basic share in the comparable period last year. Net income on a non-GAAP basis for the first nine months of 2019 was $452,000 or $0.11 per basic share as compared to non-GAAP net income of $702,000 or $0.20 per basic share in the comparable period last year. A reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial results for the three months and the nine months ending September 30, 2019 is presented along with the GAAP financials at the end of this document. 
 
Eyal Cohen, BOS’ Co-CEO and CFO, commented, “The performance of The Supply Chain division is currently surpassing our performance expectations. We believe it will continue to perform well as we move through the fourth quarter of 2019.
The performance of the Intelligent Robotics and RFID Division were below our expectations. Our financial results for the third quarter of 2019 were negatively impacted by the acquisition of Imdecol’s Robotics business. While this development is disappointing, we are optimistic about the long-term benefits of the Robotics acquisition and believe that it will be the major growth engine for BOS in the coming years.. We are working extensively to improve the production efficiency of the Robotics business and are implementing a cost reduction plan to improve the profitability of our legacy RFID operations.

Yuval Viner, BOS’ Co-CEO, commented, “We view the U.S. market as the most attractive opportunity for our robotic businesses given the growing demand for increased automation in manufacturing and production settings.
Recently we received a $460,000 order for In Mold Label (“IML”) robots from a Mexican plastic manufacturer that has several sites in North and South America, and earlier this year we received an $870,000 order for IML robots from a U.S. plastic manufacturer. With the addition of Imdecol, we acquired globally recognized IML robotic systems with  proven capability to successfully integrate with plastic injection machines to provide automated in mold decorating. We currently have more than 500 installations of Imdecol IML robots worldwide, and believe we are well-positioned to aggressively market our capabilities to U.S. manufacturers that we are targeting as our primary market for IML robots. With this in mind, we are establishing a Dallas sales office with a dedicated U.S. sales manager, so that we may more readily capitalize on new opportunities in U.S. to increase our market share and drive growth.” 

Outlook for the year 2019 :

·     Year 2019 revenues are expected to be $33 million,
 
·    Non-GAAP net income and earnings per basic share expected to be $550,000 or $0.14 per basic share.

“During the first quarter of 2020 we plan to provide guidance for the full year of 2020, as well as targets for the year 2021 that will reflect our expectations for effect of the strategic initiatives we are currently undertaking.” Eyal Cohen concluded.

B.O.S. Expects to Record a Write-Off of $600,000 Related to Recent Robotics Acquisition 

RISHON LEZION, Israel, October 29, 2019 — B.O.S. Better Online Solutions Ltd. (“BOS” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BOSC), a global provider of intelligent systems and services for production and logistics, announced today that it expects to record a write-off of approximately $600,000 in the third quarter of 2019, primarily related to its robotics acquisition.    
Eyal Cohen, BOS Co-CEO and CFO stated, “In connection with our acquisition of the robotics business of Imdecol Ltd. (“Imdecol”), we agreed to act as Imdecol’s subcontractor to complete certain existing contracts, which were not assigned to BOS as part of the transaction. We have experienced unexpected cost overruns and delays in the completion of these contracts, which cannot be passed on to the customers. Although Imdecol remains responsible for such cost overruns, BOS does not expect that Imdecol will be able to pay these amounts, so BOS expects to write off a portion of Imdecol’s debt in the amount of approximately $600,000.   While we are disappointed with this write-off, we expect to deduct this amount from future earn-out payments, if any, that would otherwise have been payable to Imdecol for its robotics business. The delay in completing the existing contracts, have also caused delays in the delivery of other robotics projects, which result in the deferral of revenues related to such projects. Our management team is focusing its efforts on improving the robotics production process and we expect these efforts to yield positive results in 2020.

“We continue to believe in the long term benefits of the robotics acquisition and the prospects for this business. In particular, we view the U.S. market as the most attractive opportunity for the robotics business. We plan to launch a U.S. sales platform in the first quarter of 2020 and expect to begin generating U.S. orders in the first half of 2020.  In order to execute this initiative, we will look to increase our financial resources by $0.5 million to $1 million.” Mr. Cohen concluded.

The Company has revised its revenue expectation for the full year of 2019 to $33 million, from its previous expectation of $36 million. BOS reported revenue of $32.7 million for the full year of 2018.  The Company will release its full financial results for the third quarter of 2019 before the market opens on Tuesday November, 26, 2019.
