BOS Reports Financial Results for the Third Quarter of the
Year 2024
RISHON LE ZION, Israel, November 27, 2024 – BOS Better Online Solutions Ltd. (“BOS” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BOSC) a global integrator for supply chain technologies, reported its financial results for the third quarter of the year 2024.
Third Quarter 2024 Statements of Operations Highlights:
| ● | Revenues for the third quarter amounted to $9.83 million, roughly unchanged from the comparable quarter last year. | |
| ● | Gross profit margin for the third quarter of 2024 increased to 21.9% compared to 20.9% in the comparable quarter last year. | |
| ● | Operating profit for the third quarter of 2024 increased by 24.8% to $551,000 from $441,000 in the comparable quarter last year. | |
| ● | EBITDA for the third quarter of 2024 increased by 18.3% to $710,000 compared to $600,000 in the comparable quarter last year. | |
| ● | Financial income for the third quarter of 2024 amounted to $24,000, compared to financial expenses of $(128,000) in the comparable quarter last year. | |
| ● | Net income for the third quarter of 2024 increased by 83.1% to $574,000 compared to $313,000 in the comparable quarter last year. | |
| ● | Basic net income per share for the third quarter of 2024 doubled to $0.10 compared to $0.05 in the comparable quarter last year. |
Eyal Cohen, BOS’ CEO, stated: “We are pleased with our third-quarter and nine-month results, which highlight improved profitability driven primarily by enhanced operational efficiency and higher product mix margins. However, we now anticipate falling short of our projected $46 million annual revenue target, and expect to close 2024 with approximately $40 million in revenues. This shortfall stems largely from the delay in the delivery of customer orders, which we had anticipated for completion before year-end.
That said, we do remain on track to achieve our net income target of $2.2 million in 2024, demonstrating our ability to manage costs effectively and maintain profitability in spite of the interim decrease in revenues.
Looking ahead, we are optimistic about our growth prospects for next year, as a significant portion of our revenues is defense-oriented—an industry experiencing strong and sustained growth. This optimism is reinforced by the 15% increase in our backlog to $23 million as of September 30, 2024, compared to $20.1 million at the end of 2023, as well as the $2.7 million order from a defense customer that we announced earlier this month. We look forward to sharing our financial guidance for 2025 in January.”
Ziv Dekel, BOS’ Chairman, stated: “As we look to the future, our growth strategy is built on two key pillars: deepening our penetration in the defense sector and expanding our international sales. We will continue to strengthen our relationships with our strategic defense customers by broadening our offerings, and ensuring that we meet their evolving needs. In parallel, we aim to expand our sales overseas by leveraging our relationships with Israeli defense customers that operate globally. By aligning with their international activities and providing tailored solutions, we can tap into new opportunities within the growing global defense market.”

Safe Harbor Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The forward-looking statements contained herein reflect management’s current views with respect to future events and financial performance. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of BOS. These risk factors and uncertainties include, amongst others, the dependency of sales being generated from one or few major customers, the uncertainty of BOS being able to maintain current gross profit margins, inability to keep up or ahead of technology and to succeed in a highly competitive industry, inability to maintain marketing and distribution arrangements and to expand our overseas markets, uncertainty with respect to the prospects of legal claims against BOS, the effect of exchange rate fluctuations, general worldwide economic conditions, the continued availability of financing for working capital purposes and to refinance outstanding indebtedness; and additional risks and uncertainties detailed in BOS’ periodic reports and registration statements filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
In October 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of attacks on civilian and military targets. Hamas also launched extensive rocket attacks on Israeli population and industrial centers located along Israel’s border with the Gaza Strip and in other areas within the State of Israel. Following the attack, Israel’s security cabinet declared war against Hamas and a military campaign against these terrorist organizations commenced in parallel to their continued rocket and terror attacks. Moreover, in response to extensive rocket attacks by Hezbollah on Israel, Israel has launched a military campaign in Lebanon. The clash between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, may escalate in the future into a greater regional conflict. It is currently not possible to predict the duration or severity of the ongoing conflicts or their long term effects on our business, operations and financial conditions. The ongoing conflicts are rapidly evolving and developing, and could disrupt our business and operations, interrupt our sources and availability of supply and hamper our ability to raise additional funds or sell our securities, among others.
BOS undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statements may be based, or that may affect the likelihood that actual results will differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
