YEHUD, Israel, March 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Magal Security Systems, Ltd. (NASDAQ: MAGS)

today announced its financial results for the three month and full year periods ended December 31, 2015. Management will hold an investors' conference call later today, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time and 5:00 p.m. Israel time, to discuss the results.

Q4 RESULTS SUMMARY

  • Strong sequential revenue growth of 13.3% to $19.3 million
  • Record gross margin of 56.4%
  • Operating income of $2.9 million, 71.1% year-over-year increase
  • Net income of $2.5 million or $0.15 per share
  • Net cash at year-end of $31.1 million

FOURTH QUARTER 2015 RESULTS

Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2015 were $19.3 million, a sequential increase of 13.3% compared with revenues of $17.0 million in the prior quarter and a decrease of 29.5% compared with revenues of $27.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2014.

The changes in gross margin between quarters is a function of revenue mix between volume of projects executed, and volume of products and services sold.

Operating income in the fourth quarter of 2015 was $2.9 million compared to operating income of $1.3 million in the prior quarter and operating income of $1.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2014.

FULL YEAR 2015 RESULTS

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $63.7 million, a 17.8% decrease compared with $77.5 million in 2014.

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $31.0 million, representing 48.7% of revenues, compared with $34.5 million, representing 44.5% of revenues in 2014.

Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $4.4 million, or 6.9% of revenues, compared with $1.4 million, or 1.8% of revenues in 2014.

Net income for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $3.1 million, or $0.19 per share, compared with $3.4 million, or $0.21 per share, in 2014.

Cash, short term deposits and restricted deposits, net of bank debt, as of December 31, 2015, were $31.1 million, or $1.90 per share, compared with cash and short term deposits, net of current bank debt, of $28 million, or $1.73 per share, at December 31, 2014.

MANAGEMENT COMMENT

Commenting on the results, Mr. Saar Koursh, CEO of Magal, said, "We are very pleased with the results of the fourth quarter. In particular, we are very happy with the very strong level of gross and operating profitability, as well as the continued sequential and steady growth in sales over the past year."

"Our results in the second half of 2015, favored products and services over projects and this can be seen in the high gross margin levels. In 2015, we retired some older products while launching new products particularly in the fiber space, which contributed to our overall improvement in gross profitability. This effort will continue into 2016. Additionally, throughout the year our projects were of a smaller scale and more diverse, providing us with a more stable and varied income. It is our long-term intention to focus our efforts and strengthen the product and service legs of our business, and our fourth quarter results demonstrate that this strategy is the correct one for Magal," concluded Mr. Koursh.
