YEHUD, Israel, May 24, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Magal Security Systems, Ltd. (NASDAQ: MAGS) today announced its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Management will hold an investors’ conference call later today (at 10 am Eastern Time) to discuss the results.
FIRST QUARTER 2021 HIGHLIGHTS:
-
Entered into an asset and share purchase agreement for the sale of the Integrated Solutions division to Aeronautics Ltd. for $35 million (
closing expected in June 2021), representing value of $1.51 per share; accordingly, Magal’s Integrated Solutions division results are excluded from results from continuing operations.
-
Strong cash position of $25.9 million, or $1.12 per share, as of March 31st 2021 with no debt.
-
Future focus on Senstar’s high gross margin operation growth – 62.1% in Q1 2021.
Mr. Dror Sharon, Chief Executive Officer of Magal, said, “Following the execution of the sale agreement of Magal’s Integrated Solutions division, our results from continuing operations represent two components. The first is the results of operations of our Product Division, Senstar. Given the seasonal effect typically seen in the first quarter and the ongoing recovery process from the impact of COVID-19 on our commercial operations, we are pleased with Senstar’s results, which, when factoring back in the sales to the Integrated Solutions division, delivered 12% EBITDA contribution on sales. As the seasonal activity ramps up, we expect our top line to increase, driving an improvement in profitability throughout the year. The second component is the expenses associated with being a public company, which remained stable during the quarter compared to the prior year. “
Continued Mr. Sharon, “We are on track to complete the divestiture of the Integrated Solution division by the end of the second quarter. At that time, we will focus on developing Senstar’s business model, which is associated with an attractive gross margin and is highly scalable. After the divestiture closes, Senstar will continue to invest in its four growth drivers of revenue and profitability. We plan to continue increasing our percentage of revenue from our key verticals, Energy, Corrections, Logistics, and Critical Infrastructure. With over $10 million invested in recent years in R&D, we intend to monetize our investment by bringing new innovative hardware and software products and solutions to market. We see an opportunity to make our sales process more efficient and have several initiatives to grow our pipeline by expanding into new geographic regions. We are also evaluating new distribution channels that could support us in new geographies or connect us with new customers that would be difficult for us to access on our own. Lastly, after the divestiture, we will have approximately $60 million in cash. We continue working on M&A targets that will bring differentiated, innovative technology to increase revenue and support our brand leadership in the global security solution market.”
FIRST QUARTER 2021 RESULTS*
-
Revenue of $6.5 million compared to $7.6 million
-
Gross margin of 62.1% compared to 64.8%
-
Operating loss of ($681,000) compared to ($214,000)
-
Net loss
attributable to Magal’s shareholders of ($2.0)
million, including ($1.2) million loss from discontinued operations, compared to net income of $0.4 million
-
EBITDA from continuing operations of ($369,000) compared to $80,000
* The first quarter results from continuing operations exclude the results of the Magal Integrated Solutions Division, whose sale to Aeronautics Ltd. is expected to close during the second quarter of 2021. In addition, the revenue from continuing operations excludes sales from Senstar to the Magal Integrated Solutions division, which is considered a related party for this period. Integrated Solutions division results are reported hereunder as income from discontinued operations.
Revenue for the first quarter of 2021 was $6.5 million, a decline of 14.2% compared with $7.6 million in the first quarter of 2020. The decline in first quarter revenue was primarily due to the impact of COVID-19 in regions that still have strict limitations on traveling, gathering in groups, and social distancing.
First quarter gross margin was 62.1% of revenue versus 64.8% last year. The decline in gross margin was primarily due to the mix of Senstar hardware and software products sold during the quarter and the decline in revenues.
Operating expenses were $4.7 million, an 8.0% reduction from the prior year’s first quarter operating expenses of $5.2 million. The decline in operating expenses is attributable to the decrease in selling and marketing expenses and the receipt of an additional payroll-related governmental subsidy
Operating loss for the first quarter was ($681,000) compared to an operating loss of ($214,000) in the year-ago period.
Financial income was $19,000 compared to financial income of $744,000 in the first quarter last year. This is due to the adjustment of monetary assets and liabilities, denominated in currencies, other than the functional currency of the operational entities in the group. At the end of each period, a change in currency valuation of monetary assets and liabilities is recorded as a non-cash financial expense or income.
Net loss attributable to Magal shareholders in the quarter was ($2.0 million) or $(0.09) per share versus net income of $438,000 or $0.02 per share in the first quarter of last year. The reported net loss includes a $1.2 million loss from discontinued operations versus $34,000 of income in the same period in the previous year.
The EBITDA loss from continuing operations for the first quarter was ($369,000) versus EBITDA from continuing operations of $80,000 in the first quarter of 2020.
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and deposits related to continuing operations as of March 31, 2021, was $25.9 million, or $1.12 per share, compared with cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and deposits related to continuing operations of $24.5 million, or $1.06 per share, at December 31, 2020.
