PETACH-TIKVA, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Eltek Ltd. (NASDAQ:ELTK), a leading Israeli manufacturer of advanced flex-rigid circuitry solutions, announced today its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.
Second Quarter 2011:
Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 increased 29% to $11.5 million compared to revenues of $9.0 million recorded in the second quarter of 2010.

The increase in gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of revenues is primarily attributable to the increase in revenues.

Net profit for the second quarter of 2011 was $257,000, or $0.04 per fully diluted share, compared with a net loss of $509,000, or ($0.08) per fully diluted share, in the second quarter of 2010.
First six months of 2011:
Revenues for the first six months ended June 30, 2011 increased 26% to $23.4 million compared to revenues of $18.6 million recorded in the first six months of 2010.

Operating profit for the first six months of 2011 was $1.3 million compared to an operating loss of $762,000 in the first six months of 2010.
Net profit for the first six months of 2011 was $1.0 million, or $0.16 per fully diluted share, compared with a net loss of $1.2 million, or ($0.13) per fully diluted share, in the first six months of 2010.
EBITDA:
In the quarter ended June 30, 2011, Eltek had EBITDA of $966,000 compared with EBITDA of $465,000 in the second quarter of 2010. In the first six months of 2011, Eltek had EBITDA of $2.3 million compared with EBITDA of $482,000 in the same period in 2010.
ELTEK uses EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial performance measurement. EBITDA is calculated by adding back to net income interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is provided to investors to complement results provided in accordance with GAAP, as management believes the measure helps illustrate underlying operating trends in the Company's business and uses the measure to establish internal budgets and goals, manage the business and evaluate performance. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation between the company's results on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in a table immediately following the Consolidated Statement of Operations
Management Comments:
Arieh Reichart, President and Chief Executive Officer of Eltek commented: "I am pleased to report that Eltek's revenues increased 29% in the second quarter of 2011 compared with the same period in the previous year. After almost three years of reduced capital expenditures we have resumed investment in new equipment, mainly through supplier financing, in order to strengthen our technology capabilities, increase our production capacity and enable cost reductions. During the second quarter we developed innovative applications for small medical devices that will strengthen our leading position in the medical device market. We believe that these achievements and the recently received orders for boards from a US medical devices company will enable us to establish profitability in future periods.”
Amnon Shemer, CFO of Eltek, added: “We were successful in keeping the increase in our cost of goods sold at a lower rate than the increase in revenues, and as a result our gross margins increased by 97% in the first six months of 2011 compared to 2010, and as a percentage of revenues, our gross margins increased from 12% to 20% respectively.”
“The $317,000 financial expenses recorded in the second quarter of 2010 was unusually higher than the $160,000 of financial expenses recorded in the second quarter of 2011, mainly due to the exchange rate impact on the dollar value of our European customers’ debt to us and a net loss recorded from hedging transactions in the comparable period in 2010,” Mr. Shemer concluded.

(*) As of December 31, 2010, the Company was not in compliance with certain of its financial covenants in respect of its credit facilities and long-term debt with its banks. However, in May 2011, one of the banks modified the covenant terms, reducing the requirements to a new compliance level effective from the December 31, 2010, while another bank granted the Company a waiver. The Company has initiated discussions with this bank in order to modify the financial covenants and to agree on terms which the Company believes it will be able to meet. As a result of the uncertainty regarding the successful completion of these discussions and of returning to compliance at December 31, 2011, the accounting standards require the Company to continue to classify its long-term bank debt as short short term debt at June 30, 2011 and until an agreement on new covenant terms is reached, and compliance with such new terms is anticipated.
