TAT Technologies Reports First Quarter 2022 Results

NETANIA, Israel, May 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — TAT Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: TATT) (“TAT” or the “Company”), a leading provider of products and services to the commercial and military aerospace and ground defense industries, reported today its unaudited results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022.

Financial highlights for the first quarter of 2022:

Revenues for Q1 2022 increased by 8.1% to $19.9 million compared to $18.4 million in Q1 2021.
   
Gross profit for Q1 2022 was $3 million (15.2% of revenues) compared to $3.4 million in Q1 2021 (18.5% of revenues).
   
Adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2022 decreased to $0.5 million compared to $1.6 million in Q1 2021.
   
Net loss for Q1 2022 was $1.6 million compared to a net income of $0.6 million in Q1 2021.
   
Q1 2021 Gross Profit, EBITDA and Net Income included government rants in the amount of $1.4 million ($1 million recorded in the COGS and an additional $0.4 million recorded in G&A)

Mr. Igal Zamir, TAT’s CEO and President commented on the results: “As air travel begins to recoup and more and more plains resume flights, we see a growing demand for our services and products and an increase in order intake. We are working relentlessly to meet this demand despite strong headwinds resulting from supply chain issues and shortages in raw materials, which are hampering our ability to fully ramp up our production.

During Q1 of 2022 we continued making significant steps in improving our manufacturing efficiencies as we successfully completed merging our 2 facilities in Israel to a single manufacturing site. We believe the cost savings expected from this unification will begin to impact us toward the second half of 2022.

In addition we continue to invest in building additional MRO and production capabilities, following the strategic contacts recently signed with Honeywell and hope to have these new capabilities available by the end of this year.”

“Given our growing backlog, the continued recovery of commercial airline traffic and the strategic agreements we signed with Honeywell, coupled with the actions we have taken and to improve our manufacturing efficiencies, I am optimistic about our ability to continue our topline and bottom line growth.” concluded Mr. Zamir

Mr Zamir added: “Mr. Ron Ben-Haim has informed our Board of Directors of his retirement from his directorship position effective, May 30, 2022. I wish to thank Ron for his service on behalf of the Company, its board of directors, its management and its employees”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company also presents Adjusted EBITDA.  The adjustments to the Company’s GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of the Company’s underlying operational results, trends and performance. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income excluding the impact of: the Company’s share in results of affiliated companies, share-based compensation, taxes on income, financial (expenses) income, net, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, however, should not be considered as alternative to net income and operating income for the period and may not be indicative of the historic operating results of the Company; nor it is meant to be predictive of potential future results. Adjusted EBITDA is not measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies. See reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA in pages 13 below.
