  • Gross margin was 32.8%, as compared to 32.2%.
  • Net loss was $394,000 ($0.12 loss per share), as compared to net loss of $808,000 ($0.24 loss per share),
  • Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, fair value adjustment on contingent liabilities and other non-current liability, and stock-based compensation (EBITDA, as adjusted) was a loss of $199,000 ($0.06 loss per share), as compared to a loss of 179,000 ($0.05 loss per share).
  • Backlog at September 30, 2024 was $16.8 million compared to $20.6 million at June 30, 2024 and $17.4 million at December 31, 2023.

Mitchell Binder, President and CEO of Orbit International, commented, "Our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was $394,000 ($0.12 loss per share) compared to a net loss of $808,000 ($0.24 loss per share) for the prior comparable period. EBITDA, as adjusted, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was a loss of $199,000 ($0.06 loss per share) compared to a loss of $179,000 ($0.05 loss per share) in the prior comparable period. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, were positively impacted by improved operating results during the third quarter as compared to the first six months of the current year. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was $558,000 ($0.17 per diluted share) compared to $762,000 (0.23 per diluted share) in the comparable prior year period. Operating income during the current quarter was positively affected by higher sales and improved gross profit at our Simulator Product Solutions LLC ("SPS") subsidiary. The higher sales and improved gross profit resulted from significantly higher bookings at SPS during the prior twelve months ended December 31, 2023. SPS is part of our Orbit Electronics Group ("OEG"). Operating income during the prior year three-month period was positively impacted by higher sales and gross profit at our Orbit Instrument division, which is part of our Orbit Electronics Group ("OEG"), as a significant amount of engineering deliverables were recorded during the period."

Binder added, "Our current third quarter operating results were positively affected by the results from SPS but were partially offset by lower operating income at our Orbit Instrument division. Operating income at our Orbit Instrument division, reflected lower sales and gross margins during the quarter. Gross margins were affected by lower sales and product mix as well as the previously noted engineering deliverables made during the prior year comparable period. Our Orbit Instrument division has historically been our best performing operating unit with great operating leverage. The Orbit Power Group ("OPG"), which makes up the remainder of our legacy business, recorded slightly improved operating results during the quarter in comparison to the prior year comparable period. The improved operating results of SPS during the current quarter were attributable to higher sales and improved gross margins. General and administrative costs have stabilized for the quarter, as we incurred significant infrastructure costs to support the increase in sales and bookings from 2023 as well as the increase in sales expected for 2024. At the time of the SPS acquisition in January 2022, we anticipated the need to invest in infrastructure and internal controls in order to bring SPS up to the standards of a public company. We believe that our cost structure at SPS is now aligned to support our growth."

Mr. Binder added, "Our sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, increased to $21,190,000 compared to $20,383,000 from the prior comparable period. This increase in sales was primarily attributable to increased SPS and OPG sales. The sales increase was partially offset by a decrease in sales from our OEG attributable to our legacy businesses and exclusive of SPS."

Mr. Binder further added, "Our gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, increased to 32.8% compared to 32.2% in the prior year comparable period. This increase in gross margin during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was attributable to a higher SPS gross margin due to operating leverage from increased sales and product mix and a higher OPG gross margin due to higher sales. This increase in gross margin occurred despite a lower OEG gross margin(exclusive of SPS) due to lower sales in the current period and the engineering deliverables made in the prior year period."

Mr. Binder added, "Our improved operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, were adversely affected by higher selling, general and administrative expenses in the current period. For the current nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the prior comparable period, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $543,000, primarily due to higher expenses from SPS as well as higher corporate expenses due to certain expenses related to the non-renewal of an employment contract of a senior officer, higher accounting fees and increased payroll costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses at SPS increased during the current period principally because of additional administrative personnel that were needed and hired during 2022 and 2023, as well as higher commissions that were earned during the first half of 2024, resulting from a significant increase in bookings in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the comparable period of the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses at our OEG (exclusive of SPS), and our OPG did not materially change."

Mr. Binder continued, "Backlog at September 30, 2024, was approximately $16,800,000 compared to approximately $17,400,000 at December 31, 2023, a decrease of approximately $600,000 or approximately 3.4%. The slight decrease in backlog is reflective of a general decrease in bookings from our OEG, inclusive of SPS and despite improved bookings from our OPG. In particular, for the OPG, bookings for our VPX power supplies for the ten months ended October 31, 2024, increased by 97.6% over the prior comparable period and have exceeded the amount of VPX bookings in any previous full calendar year. Bookings for our OEG, inclusive of SPS, are expected to improve as many anticipated follow-on awards expected in the third quarter are now expected to be received by year end. Contract delays are an inherent part of doing business with the U.S. Government."

David Goldman, Chief Financial Officer, noted, "At September 30, 2024, our cash and cash equivalents aggregated approximately $0.3 million and our financial condition continued to remain solid as evidenced by our 2.6 to 1 current ratio. We have access to a $4,000,000 line of credit ("LOC") with our bank and have borrowed $1,000,000 under the LOC as of September 30, 2024. Our book value per share at September 30, 2024 was $5.41, which compares to $5.24 at June 30, 2024 and $5.54 at December 31, 2023. (Note: book value per share does not include any additional value for our remaining reserved deferred tax asset.) To offset future federal and state taxes resulting from profits, we have approximately $3.6 million and $0.5 million in available federal and New York State net operating loss carryforwards, respectively."

Mr. Binder added, "Because our revenues are tied to delivery schedules specified in our contracts, it is often difficult to judge our performance on a quarterly basis. Our operating results for the first nine months of 2024 reflect an improvement from our weak operating results in the comparable period of the prior year. These results reflect an increase in operating income from SPS due to an increase in sales and gross profit and despite an increase in infrastructure costs, as well as an increase from our OPG due to an increase in sales. However, despite the improvement from SPS and our OPG, our operating results were negatively impacted by lower sales from our Orbit Instrument division, which negatively impacted operating results for the nine-month period. This was primarily the result of weak bookings in the first half of 2023.Bookings from this division improved in the second half of 2023 and into 2024. However, this division is again experiencing contract delays for follow-on business that was expected in the third and fourth quarter of 2024. As previously mentioned, our Orbit Instrument division has historically been our most profitable operating unit. Furthermore, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, as previously reported, we reported a very strong start to the 2024 year with consolidated bookings of approximately $12,700,000, which included strong bookings from both SPS and our legacy businesses. However, consolidated bookings have cooled off in the second and third quarters, principally due to contract delays, but we expect bookings for these delayed contracts to be received either in the fourth quarter of 2024 or the first quarter of 2025."

Mr. Binder concluded, "As a result of our stock being moved to the OTC Expert Market on May 16, 2023, our Board moved to suspend our existing repurchase program until the Company is reinstated onto the OTC Pink Market. On March 11, 2024, we filed our 2022 Annual Report with the OTC and filed our 2023 Annual Report on April 16, 2024. On October 4, 2024, we were reinstated by FINRA, and are again trading on the OTC Pink Market. However, our Board of Directors has not yet determined to reinstate our buyback program. Through May 15, 2023, we had purchased approximately 188,185 shares under the existing program."

The Company also announced today that it has hired PKF O'Connor Davies, LLP to perform the audit of its financial statements for the 2024 fiscal year and that its Board of Directors has extended the employment contract of Mitchell Binder, President and CEO through December 31, 2026.

The Company also reported that the matter related to its termination of Nabil Radi Abdou, the President of SPS is ongoing. As part of the acquisition by Orbit in January 2022, Mr. Abdou, through a corporation owned by him, currently owns 19.9% of SPS. His ownership interest, based on a formula in the Operating Agreement signed at that time, is subject to mandatory repurchase by Orbit for $1,300,000 upon termination of Mr. Abdou's employment. This amount is reflected as a liability on Orbit's balance sheet. Mr. Abdou contends he was wrongfully dismissed and has claimed certain amounts he believes are due him under both his Employment Agreement and in connection with the Company's mandatory repurchase obligation under the Operating Agreement. Orbit believes it has abided by the terms of both the Employment Agreement and Operating Agreement and has valid offsets against amounts due to Mr. Abdou because of damages suffered by Orbit as a result of Mr. Abdou's conduct. The parties continue to conduct discussions in an attempt to avoid litigation.
