OR YEHUDA, Israel, March 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Or Yehuda, Israel, March 19, 2024 - Formula Systems (1985) Ltd. (Nasdaq and TASE: FORTY) ("Formula" or the "Company"), a global information technology group engaged, through its subsidiaries and affiliates, in providing software consulting services and computer-based business solutions and developing proprietary software products, today announced its results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.
Financial Highlights for the Fourth Quarter Ended December 31, 2023
- Consolidated revenues for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023 amounted to $640.3 million, compared to $657.1 million in the same period last year. On a constant currency basis (calculated based on average currency exchange rates for the three months ended December 31, 2022), the consolidated revenues for the fourth quarter of 2023 would have increased by approximately 3.0% to $676.7 million.
- Consolidated operating income for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023 amounted to $60.3 million compared to $60.2 million in the same period last year. On a constant currency basis (calculated based on average currency exchange rates for the three months ended December 31, 2022), the consolidated operating income for the fourth quarter of 2023 would have increased by approximately 3.4% to $62.2 million, compared to the same period last year.
- Consolidated net income attributable to Formula's shareholders for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023 amounted to $15.7 million, or $1.01 per fully diluted share, compared to $15.3 million, or $1.00 per fully diluted share, in the same period last year.
Net income in the period was negatively impacted by (i) an increase in interest expenses resulting from the increase in variable interest rates, with financial expenses net increasing by approximately 33.5% year over year to $9.2 million, compared to $6.9 million in the same period last year, (ii) an increase in costs related to share-based compensation, which amounted to $5.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $4.6 million in the same period last year and (iii) recent events taking place in Israel since October 7, 2023 (Iron Swards war against the terrorist organization Hamas) resulting with the drafting to active military service of approximately 1,100 out of our 22,000 employees. The absence of such employees resulted in lower profitability in the fourth quarter in certain areas of our operations.

Excluding such impact, consolidated operating income for the full year, increased by 3% compared to the same period last year. On a constant currency basis (calculated based on average currency exchange rates for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022), the consolidated operating income for the year 2023 would have increased by approximately 6.5% to $247.4 million, compared to 2022 (excluding the above-mentioned capital gain of $44.3 million recorded in 2022).

Net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 was positively impacted by approximately $17.1 million of income (net of taxes) realized from the disposition of a subsidiary of Matrix IT. Excluding such impact, consolidated net income attributable to Formula's shareholders for the full year ended December 31, 2023 decreased by 0.4% compared to 2022.
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2023 was negatively impacted by (i) an increase in interest expenses resulting from the increase in variable interest rates, with financial expenses net increasing by approximately 42.2% to $28.3 million, compared to $19.9 million in the same period last year, (ii) an increase in costs related to share-based compensation, which amounted to $19.1 million for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2023 compared to $14.5 million in 2022 and, (iii) recent events taking place in Israel since October 7, 2023 (Iron Swards war against the terrorist organization Hamas) resulting with the drafting to active military service of approximately 1,100 out of our 22,000 employees. The absence of such employees resulted in lower profitability in the fourth quarter in certain areas of our operations. - As of December 31, 2023, Formula held 48.21%, 43.63%, 46.71%, 100%, 50%, 90.1%, 80%, 100% and 100% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Matrix IT Ltd., Sapiens International Corporation N.V., Magic Software Enterprises Ltd., Michpal Micro Computers (1983) Ltd., TSG IT Advanced Systems Ltd., Insync Staffing Solutions, Inc., Ofek Aerial Photography Ltd., ZAP Group Ltd., and Shamrad Electronic (1997) Ltd., respectively.

Comments of Management
Commenting on the results, Guy Bernstein, CEO of Formula Systems, said: "Formula Systems group continues to demonstrate strong and consistent performance, making big strides across multiple fronts, as reflected by our 2023 fourth quarter and full year revenues and operational profits. Our broad investment portfolio allows us to carefully mitigate the current risks in the IT market, which are mainly a product of the challenging macro-economic environment. With respect to recent events taking place in Israel, since October 7, 2023 whereas approximately 1,100 out of our 22,000 employees were drafted to active military service in Israel's Iron Swards war against the terrorist organization Hamas, the absence of such employees resulted in lower profitability in the fourth quarter in certain areas of our operations (despite partial compensation paid by the State of Israel). Our global operations which rely on our dedicated global employee base continues to be unaffected by the war, while our Israeli teams continue to work generally in a usual hybrid manner. As such the impact of the recent events on our operations across our investment portfolio was not severe."
"Matrix concluded the year with double-digit growth and record-breaking results recorded across all its key operational financial indices: revenues, gross profit, operating income and EBITDA. Matrix revenues for the year grew by 12.0% year over year reaching an all-time high of NIS 5.2 billion (approximately $1.42 billion). Operating income (excluding capital gain realized from the disposition of a Matrix IT subsidiary) grew by 12.2%, reaching NIS 393.4 million (approximately $106.8 million). We are pleased with Matrix's continued recognition as a market leader in Israel in the implementation of fastest-growing technologies, such as cloud, cyber, digital, data, DevOps and AI, which enable the company to create significant value for its customers in managing, streamlining, accelerating and making their businesses thrive. There is a strong demand in Israel for software services in digital, cloud, cyber, data, and core operating systems-areas in which Matrix is a market leader, and which are at the center of the IT market demand. North America, which accounted for 9% of Matrix's annual revenues and approximately 19% of its operating income in such period, also showed significant growth, with an increase of approximately 26.5% in operating income, along with continued improvement in operating margin approximately 180 basis points year over year. We believe that Matrix has significant growth potential in the North American market, especially in the field of AI-based solutions for anti-money laundering and prevention of financial crimes, as well as across all of its other areas of expertise in the North American market".
"Sapiens' revenues for the year increased by 8.4% to $514.6 million crossing for the $500 million mark for the first time. Sapiens ARR in the fourth quarter was $164.8 million, reflecting growth of 13.5% compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. In the vibrant and dynamic territories of North America and Europe, Sapiens has witnessed a flourishing trajectory of growth, establishing a robust foundation poised for sustained expansion throughout the forthcoming year. With a series of successful implementations that span the global stage, Sapiens continued to significantly enhance its market presence. This achievement is punctuated by the initiation of approximately 30 new deals signed with both new and existing customers across core, Data, digital, and cloud in P&C, Workers' Comp, Life, and Reinsurance. As a global player with multiple product lines and cloud capabilities and a cost-efficient operating model which combines off-and on-shore delivery capabilities, we believe that Sapiens is positioned in a sweet spot to reap the gains of this opportunity."
"Magic Software's operational results for the year reflected a slowdown as revenues for the year decreased by 5.6% to $535.1 million, compared to $566.8 million in the same period of the previous year. On a constant currency basis (calculated based on average currency exchange rates for the year ended December 31, 2023), Magic Software's revenues for the year would have decreased by 1.6% to $557.9 million, due to a substantial and unexpected decline in demand for Magic Software's professional services from several of its important U.S.-based blue-chip customers which, without any advance notification, decided to immediately suspend significant parts of their active time-and-materials-based projects resulting in a decrease of close to 600 of Magic Software's U.S. specialists compared to the respective period. Despite the slowdown we faced during the second half of the year we remain positive that the vast majority of Magic Software's customers will continue to value its unique proposition and resume to engage it to an increasing degree as a preferred partner for innovative digital transformation initiatives. Fueled by a well-diversified investment portfolio, Magic Software persistently pursue both organic and inorganic avenues of expansion across its service lines. Across the globe, Magic Software's dedicated team at is resolutely focused on executing its strategic vision to not only restore but surpass its previous heights, thereby ensuring sustained growth and the continual enhancement of shareholder value."
"Michpal concluded the year strong with record-breaking revenues for the year of NIS 142 million (approximately $38.5 million), growing 11% year over year. Michpal offers comprehensive proprietary on-premise and web-based payroll software solutions and related services as well as integrated specialized management systems in the field of financial accounting, taxation and compliance, for accounting professionals (accountants and tax consultants), bookkeepers, controllers, and CFOs. Michpal ended 2023 with significant enhancements to its product offerings and is well-positioned to continue its positive momentum throughout 2024."
"TSG concluded the year of 2023 with double-digit growth recorded across its revenues and operating income. TSG revenues for the year of 2023 grew by approximately 19% year over year to NIS 295.4 million (approximately $80.1 million). Operating income for the year increased by 35.7% to NIS 28.4 million (approximately $7.7 million) compared to NIS 20.9 million last year (approximately $6.2 million). TSG continues to materialize both on its traditional activities in the defense sector and on its activities in the Israeli municipal sector developing advanced solutions for its customers based on long-term engagement cycles."
"Lastly, Zap Group continues to develop and invest in diverse advanced fields and innovative technologies, preserving its position as the leading digital marketing and advertising group in Israel. With a deep understanding of the Israeli market and consumer needs, Zap Group successfully manages diverse and significant content and consumer sites and provides strategic services and advertising solutions to its customers. During the second half of 2023, following advanced development Zap Group soft launched its state-of-the-art Marketplace platform based on SAP and Mirakl's platforms. The Zap Group Marketplace platform offers a reliable and comfortable online buying experience by utilizing a simple 'compare and purchase' interface, allowing customers to select and purchase from a variety of products arranged in dozens of popular categories, all using a single shopping cart, with a simple and user-friendly operating system. During the first weeks of the trial period hundreds of sellers, which include tens of thousands of products, have joined the Zap Group's new unique and advanced platform. Unfortunately, the challenging macroeconomic climate of high interest rates, persistent inflation and reduced spending, influencing both SMBs and consumers, alongside recent events in Israel taking place as of October 7, 2023, have had and are expected to continue to have, an adverse impact on Zap's top and bottom lines results. As a result, we initiated a reorganization plan, concluded by the end of 2023, intended to streamline and simplify the organization, improve efficiency, and reduce costs."
