Press Release

Eltek Ltd. Reports 2024 Second Quarter Financial Results

Petach Tikva, Israel (August 15, 2024) Eltek Ltd. (NASDAQ: ELTK), a global manufacturer and supplier of technologically advanced solutions in the field of printed circuit boards (PCBs), today announced its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Second Quarter 2024 Highlights

Revenues were $10.5 million
Operating profit was $0.4 million
--- --- ---
Profit before tax was $0.9 million
--- --- ---
Net income was $0.8 million or $0.11 per fully diluted share
--- --- ---

"Eltek has demonstrated consistent growth over the past several quarters, driven by our commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction. However, this quarter, we experienced a decrease in revenues and profits compared to the previous quarter and the corresponding quarter last year. This decline is attributed to a significant timing shift by some key customers, who prioritized orders for PCBs with medium technology requirements, resulting in lower prices and margins. Orders for more complex, higher-margin PCBs were pushed back and are scheduled to be produced in the third quarter. While this has impacted our short-term financial performance, we remain confident in our long-term strategy and market position," said Eli Yaffe, CEO of Eltek.

"We expect to return in in the third quarter to the profitability parameters of previous quarters, as product mix strategies are realigned. Our backlog as of today increased by 30% since the beginning of 2024. This increase will support our planned growth in revenues and profitability. We remain committed to delivering value to our shareholders and are taking the necessary steps to ensure that we continue our growth trend. Our team is focused on optimizing our product offerings and operational efficiencies to drive profitability and sustain our market leadership," concluded Mr. Yaffe.
