TAT Technologies Reports 2020 Results

· Issued by Tat Technologies Ltd. via PR Newswire

GEDERA, Israel, March 30, 2021 /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 audited results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.

Key Financial Highlights (*):

  • Total revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 were $75.3 million compared to $97.4 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, a decrease of 22.7%  The decrease in revenues was the result of the  COVID-19 pandemic outbreak which has significant effect on the commercial aviation industry.
  • Gross profit for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 were $8.4 million (11.2% of revenues) compared to $15.3 million (15.7% of revenues) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, a decrease of 44.8%. The decline in gross profit was mainly due to decrease in revenues and fixed charges on the COGS.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 was $1.1 million compared to $7.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019.
  • GAAP net loss from continued operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 was $3.5 million compared to GAAP net income of $1.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019. GAAP net income from continued operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 included one-time expenses of approximately $0.8 million.
  • Cash net of debt for December 31, 2020 was $16.2 million compared to $16.0 million for December 31, 2019. During 2020, the Company made significant capital investments related to the two large agreements with Honeywell. Nevertheless, the improvement in cash was mainly due to improved working capital management.* Financial results for fiscal year 2019 reclassified due to discontinued operation.

Mr. Igal Zamir, CEO and President of TAT Technologies stated, "2020 was a unique and challenging year for the aerospace industry and for TAT. TAT has reacted quickly in early 2020 to the changing environment and adjusted its cost structure to the new environment. We managed to conclude 2020 with positive EBITDA and slight increase in our net cash balance after making some meaningful investments related to the two new strategic agreements with Honeywell. These investments are reflected in the inventory and property, plant and equipment line items in our balance sheet. During 2020, we signed two strategic agreements with Honeywell that are related to MRO services to APU 331-200 and APU 331-500. We believe that such agreements position TAT (through its Piedmont subsidiary) as a global premier MRO services provider. We also believe that the Company would generate significant business and revenues from these two agreements. In addition, TAT has been working on other operational rationalization activities that are expected to yield significant cost savings starting from late 2021. We expect to enjoy the full impact of our above mentioned activities when the industry starts recovering from the COVID 19 crisis.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company also presents a Non-GAAP presentation of Net Income and 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.  Non-GAAP Net Income excludes changes, income or losses, as applicable, related to one or more of the following: (1) share-based compensation expenses and/or (2) certain tax impact and/or (3) acquisition related expenses and/or (4) share in results of equity investment of affiliated companies. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income before the Company's share in results and sale of equity investment of affiliated companies, share-based compensation, taxes on income, financial (expenses) income, net, depreciation and amortization, inventory impairment from exit and dismissal activity and customers relationship write off. Non-GAAP Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA, however, should not be considered as alternatives to net income and operating income for the period and may not be indicative of the historic operating results of the Company; nor they are meant to be predictive of potential future results.  Non-GAAP Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies. See reconciliation of GAAP Net Income to Non-GAAP Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA in page 11.
