Eltek reports third quarter financial results
PETACH-TIKVA, Israel, November 26, 2014 (NASDAQ:ELTK) - Eltek Ltd. (NASDAQ:ELTK - News), the leading Israeli manufacturer of advanced circuitry solutions, including complex build ups of rigid and flex-rigid printed circuit boards, announced today its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2014.
Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 were $11.7 million compared to revenues of $12.8 million for the third quarter of 2013.
Gross Profit for the third quarter of 2014 was $1.5 million (12.8% of revenues) compared to gross profit of $2.3 million (18.4% of revenues) for the third quarter of 2013. The decrease in gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of revenues is mainly attributable to the decline in revenues while a portion of our cost of sales is fixed.
During the third quarter of 2014, the Company recorded one-time expenses in the amount of $559,000. This expense reflects our previously announced management downsizing, and a goodwill impairment charge associated with the acquisition of our German subsidiary, Kubatronik.

Management Comments:
Mr. Yitzhak Nissan, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, commented: “Eltek’s revenues in the third quarter were still weak. We experienced a decline in the demand by the domestic defense sector for printed circuit boards manufactured locally. This decline was not sufficiently compensated by sales to the domestic civilian market. In addition, there was a reduction in orders received from the United States.
"We have taken measures to streamline our operations and to better leverage our competitive advantages. We expanded our sales force in the United States and in Israel, and we are making good progress in modernizing our production lines.
"In addition, we are offering imported boards to the customers that prefer low cost products. As a leading manufacturer, we can provide these customers better quality control and high-level services.
"We believe that with these measures, our company will be well positioned to increase its market share in the near future.” Mr. Nissan concluded.

Use of EBITDA
ELTEK uses EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial performance measurement. EBITDA is calculated by adding back to net income interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is provided to investors to complement results provided in accordance with GAAP, as management believes the measure helps illustrate underlying operating trends in the Company's business and uses the measure to establish internal budgets and goals, manage the business and evaluate performance. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation between the company's results on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in a table immediately following the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company reports financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP and herein provides some non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures are intended to supplement the Company’s presentation of its financial results that are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses the non-GAAP measures presented to evaluate and manage the Company’s operations internally. The Company is also providing this information to assist investors in performing additional financial analysis.
