Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Ramat Gan, Israel, November 30, 2023 – Senstar Technologies (NASDAQ: SNT), a leading international provider of comprehensive physical, video and access
control security products and solutions, today announced its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. Management will hold an investors' conference call later today (at 10 a.m. Eastern Time) to discuss the results.
Business Highlights:
|
• |
Continued strong growth in Europe driven by market share expansion in the region.
|
|
• |
Introduced the Senstar MultiSensor™ intrusion detection system, a disruptive AI-powered sensor unit.
|
|
• |
Cash balance of $12.6 million and zero debt as of September 30, 2023.
|
Mr. Fabien Haubert, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Senstar Technologies, stated, "Our third quarter revenue of $9.0 million
underscores our sustained strength in Europe and Latam, both of which have been areas of investment. This growth was tempered by the absence of one-off projects in Canada and the U.S. completed in the third quarter of last year that did not repeat
this year. Additionally, lower APAC revenue reflects the challenging economic conditions in China and a delayed large project. We are working to have our gross margin returning to more normalized levels in the coming quarters. Despite the dip in
revenue and gross margin this quarter, we maintained positive operating income and EBITDA."
Mr. Haubert continued, "We are proud to introduce our latest breakthrough, the Senstar MultiSensor™ intrusion detection system, a disruptive AI-powered sensor unit that seamlessly integrates all
intrusion detection capabilities into a single, powerful device. The MultiSensor offers unparalleled situational awareness, effectively eradicating false alarms and, as a versatile stand-alone solution, expands its potential applications beyond the
conventional Perimeter Intrusion Detection use cases. The true gem of this innovation lies in its ability to consolidate multiple functionalities into one intelligent unit, reducing complexity and improving functionality. We are excited to announce
that the MultiSensor is slated for release in 2024."
Third Quarter 2023 Results Summary
Revenue for the third quarter of 2023 was $9.0 million, a decrease of 7.9% compared with $9.7 million in the third quarter of 2022. Third quarter gross profit was $5.1 million, or 56.5% of revenue,
compared with $6.0 million, or 61.1% of revenue. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to the delivery of a lower margin legacy project in the quarter.
Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2023 were $4.9 million, essentially flat compared to $4.8 million in the prior year's third quarter.
Operating income was $123,000 for the third quarter of 2023 compared to $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Financial expense was ($64,000) for the third quarter of 2023 compared to financial income of $212,000 in the third quarter of 2022.
Loss from continuing operations was ($122,000) in the third quarter of 2023 compared to income from continuing operations of $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Net loss in the third quarter of 2023 was ($122,000) or ($0.01) per share compared to net income of $1.3 million, or $0.06 per share in the third quarter of last year. Net income in the 2022 period
includes net income from discontinued operations of $66,000.
EBITDA from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2023 was $322,000 versus $1.5 million for the third quarter of 2022.
The Company had cash and cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits of $12.7 million, or $0.55 per share as of September 30, 2023, compared with $15.1 million, or $0.65 per share, as of December
