/EINPresswire.com/ -- HAUPPAUGE, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 11/05/15 -- Orbit International Corp. (OTC PINK: ORBT) today announced results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Third Quarter 2015 vs. Third Quarter 2014

  • Gross margin was 37.5%, as compared to 36.7%.

  • Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and stock based compensation (EBITDA, as adjusted) was $372,000 ($0.09 earnings per share), as compared to a loss of $31,000 ($0.01 loss per share).

Nine Months 2015 vs. Nine Months 2014

  • Net sales were $14,612,000, as compared to $15,203,000.
  • Gross margin was 36.7%, as compared to 36.2%.
  • Net income was $319,000 ($0.07 earnings per share), as compared to a net loss of $1,348,000 ($0.31 loss per share).
  • Net loss for the 2014 nine month period includes $1,087,000 of costs associated with the consolidation of our Quakertown, PA facility into our Hauppauge, NY facility. Exclusive of these costs, net loss for the 2014 nine month period was $261,000 ($0.06 loss per share).
  • Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and stock based compensation (EBITDA, as adjusted) was $598,000 ($0.14 earnings per share), as compared to a loss of $854,000 ($0.19 loss per share).
  • Backlog at September 30, 2015 was $10.3 million as compared to $13.2 million at June 30, 2015 and $9.8 million at September 30, 2014.

Mitchell Binder, President & Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our results for the third quarter once again benefitted from the significant cost cutting that we implemented over the past two years. Our revenue for the third quarter increased by 8.7% over the prior year comparable quarter and our profitability increased due to improved operating margins. In particular, our selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased by 11.7% and 26.3%, respectively, as compared to the prior year comparable periods."

Mr. Binder added, "During the third quarter of 2015, both our Electronics and Power Groups contributed to the profitability of the Company. Based on our delivery schedules, we expect our fourth quarter to slightly exceed third quarter revenue levels. Our backlog at 9/30/15 was $10.3 million v. $9.8 million at 9/30/14, a 4.8% increase year over year but a 13.8% decrease from the $12.0 million backlog at year end. The decrease in our backlog from year-end is primarily attributable to a lower backlog at our Power Group due to a decrease in bookings related to oil and gas activity and a weaker capital spending environment."

David Goldman, Chief Financial Officer, noted, "Our financial condition remains strong. At September 30, 2015, total current assets were approximately $15.7 million versus total current liabilities of approximately $1.6 million for a 9.7 to 1 current ratio. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of September 30, 2015, aggregated approximately $509,000. To offset future federal and state taxes resulting from profits, we have approximately $10 million and $4 million in available federal and New York State net operating loss carryforwards, respectively, which should enhance future cash flow."

Mr. Goldman added, "During the quarter, we continued to pay down our debt. Our tangible book value at September 30, 2015 was $2.96 as compared to $2.89 at both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (this does not include any value for the potential deferred tax asset from our operating loss carryforwards that could offset future taxable income). During the third quarter, we purchased 86,380 shares (approximately $264,000) of which 86,000 shares were retired; and since January 1, 2012, we have repurchased in excess of 459,000 shares of our stock in the marketplace at an average price of $3.41 per share."

Mr. Goldman concluded, "In October 2015, we amended our Credit Agreement with our primary lender whereby the maturity date for our $4 million committed line of credit was extended to August 1, 2017. We were in compliance with our financial covenants at September 30, 2015."

Mr. Binder concluded, "We are benefiting from the restructuring of our business that we began in 2013 and we continue to examine our costs for additional savings. Our challenge remains to increase revenue in a difficult business environment, thereby taking advantage of our operating leverage. Our Power Group is securing several alliances with large prime contractors on certain platforms that could potentially utilize its new VPX technology. The Company has developed several new versions of its VPX power supplies and expects several small prototype orders over the next few months that could develop into substantial production awards."

(1) The EBITDA (as adjusted) tables presented are not determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Management uses EBITDA (as adjusted) to evaluate the operating performance of its business. It is also used, at times, by some investors, securities analysts and others to evaluate companies and make informed business decisions. EBITDA (as adjusted) is also a useful indicator of the income generated to service debt. EBITDA (as adjusted) is not a complete measure of an entity's profitability because it does not include costs and expenses for interest, depreciation and amortization, income taxes and stock based compensation. EBITDA (as adjusted) as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly named measures reported by other companies.
