Comments of Management
Commenting on the results, Guy Bernstein, CEO of Formula Systems, said, "We are pleased with our third quarter results, during which our businesses grew both their top and bottom lines. Despite the challenging economic climate and increased pressure on margins, Matrix showed growth from both new and existing customers, continuing the expansion of its offerings. Sapiens and Magic both enjoyed pickup in their top and bottom lines with Magic adopting a dividend policy, according to which, each year it will distribute a dividend of up to 50% of its annual distributable profits. During October, Magic distributed approximately $3.7 million (or $0.10 per share) equal to 50% of its first half income of 2012."
