Second Quarter highlights include:

  • Revenues totaled $5.7 million, compared with $6.8 million in the second quarter of 2010
  • Gross profit totaled $1.9 million, compared with $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2010

Second Quarter 2011 Results

Revenues totaled $5.7 million, a 16% decrease when compared with $6.8 million in the second quarter of 2010. The decrease can be attributed mainly to a revenue reduction over the quarter from a major integration project in Latin America, which the Company expects will be recovered during the next few quarters.

Gross profit totaled $1.9 million, a 14% increase when compared with $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2010.  

Operating Profit totaled $188,000 compared with $338,000 million in the second quarter of 2010. The reduction in Operating profit can be attributed to a significant increase in R&D expenses ($530,000 during Q2 2011 compared with $211,000 during Q2 2010) when compared with the same quarter of 2010. 

Financial expenses totaled $32,000, compared with $262,000 in the same quarter of 2010. The reduction can be attributed mainly to a successful hedging policy during 2011. 

As a result, the Company reported net income of $147,000 or $0.02 per share for the quarter, compared with net income of $70,000 or $0.01 per share, for the comparable quarter in 2010.

Financial expenses totaled $184,000 compared with financial expenses of $541,000 for the same period in 2010.  

As a result, the Company reported net income of $540,000 or $0.06 per share for the six month period ended June 30, 2011, compared with a net loss of $448,000 or $0.05 per share, for the comparable period in 2010.

Management Comment 

Commenting on the results, Zvika Alon, RADA's Chief Executive Officer said, "We remain on track with our strategic plan for the year. Current projects are ongoing and progressing at a good rate and we continue to invest in our R&D, particularly in our high growth areas - navigation and radar products. Despite the weakened US dollar versus the Israeli Shekel this past quarter, we succeeded to mitigate its impact through hedging activities, which helped us reduce our financial expenses this quarter and increased our net income. 

"Looking ahead," continued Mr. Alon, "we will continue to pursue large opportunities in the navigation and radar product markets, which we expect to become major growth drivers for the Company in the future."
