B.O.S. Reports Second Quarter 2019 Financial Results – Revenue Growth of 16%, and Non-GAAP Net Income of $219,000
Company is on track to meet expectation of 2019 non-GAAP net income above $1.3 million
RISHON LE ZION, Israel, August 27, 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 second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019.
Second Quarter 2019 Results:
Revenues for the second quarter grew by 16% to $8.8 million from $7.6 million in the comparable quarter last year.
The growth was attributed to the Supply Chain division, whose revenues for the second quarter grew by 32%, to $5.6 million, from $4.2 million in the comparable period last year. The growth engine of the Supply Chain continues to be international sales, which accounted for 56% of its revenues in the second quarter of 2019 as compared to 53% in the year 2018 and 46% of revenues in the year 2017.
Revenues in the Intelligent Robotics and RFID division amounted to $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2019, roughly the same as in the second quarter of 2018. The Company completed its acquisition of the Robotics business in June. Robotics revenues are recognized upon reaching certain production milestones that take time to achieve. With just one month of operation, the Robotics business was not in the position to meet these milestones, thus had no significant impact on the second quarter 2019 revenues.
Net income for the second quarter of 2019 was $20,000 or $0.00 per basic share compared to net income of $192,000 or $0.05 per basic share in the second quarter of 2018.
Net income, on a non-GAAP basis, for the second quarter of 2019 was $219,000 or $0.05 per basic share compared to $220,000 or $0.06 per basic share in the comparable quarter last year.
First Six Months 2019 Results:
Revenues for the first six months of 2019 grew by 4% to $16.5 million from $15.8 million in the first six months of 2018.
Net income for the first six months of 2019 was $176,000 or $0.05 per basic share compared to net income of $397,000 or $0.12 per basic share in the first six months of 2018.
Net income, on a non-GAAP basis, for the first half of 2019 was $507,000 or $0.13 per basic share compared to $453,000 or $0.13 per basic share in the comparable period last year.
A reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial results for the three months and the six months ending June 30, 2019 is presented along with the GAAP financials at the end of this document.
Eyal Cohen, BOS’ Co-CEO commented: “Our second quarter represented a period of intense activity for BOS’ management and employees. In June, we completed the acquisition of Imdecol’s business, and welcomed the former Imdecol employees into the BOS family. We have been extremely focused on integrating Imdecol’s operational and financial activities.
Our mission is to enhance our Robotics operational and international sales platform to realize the tremendous long-term opportunity in the global industrial robotics market. Based on Market Research Engine, this market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.5% and exceed $98 billion by 2024.
Yuval Viner, BOS’ Co-CEO added: “We have started to enhance the Robotics operation and strengthen its competitive advantage by improving production efficiency and capacity as well as expanding its technological capabilities and customer service. This involves long-term investments that we expect shall gradually yield consistent and sustained growth in our Robotics international revenues. Additionally, we have merged the RFID and Robotics sales teams and created an international sales group and a local market (Israel) sales group”. Outlook for the year 2019
BOS reiterates the following expectations for full-year 2019:
· Year 2019 revenues will grow to above $36 million from $33.6 million in the year 2018.
Revenues for the first six months of 2019 amounted to $16.5 million. Revenues for the second half of 2019 are expected to grow to $19.5 million.
· Non-GAAP net income and earnings per basic share will increase to above $1.3 million or $0.34 per basic share from $1.1 million or $0.32 per basic share in 2018.
Non-GAAP net income for the first six months of 2019 amounted to $507,000 ($0.13 per basic share). Non-GAAP net income for the second half of 2019 is expected to grow to $790,000 ($0.21 per basic share).
Our expectations for growth in revenues, net income and earnings per basic share on a non-GAAP basis in the second half of 2019 are based upon a full six months of operation of the Robotics business and a traditional strong fourth quarter.
