YAHUD, Israel, Aug. 31, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Magal Security Systems, Ltd. (NASDAQ NMS: MAGS) today announced its financial results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 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.

SECOND QUARTER 2015 RESULTS SUMMARY

Revenues for the second quarter of 2015 were $15.7 million, a sequential increase of 34% compared with revenues of $11.8 million in the first quarter of 2015 and a decrease of 3% compared with revenues of $16.2 million in the second quarter of 2014.

Gross profit in the second quarter of 2015 was $7.3 million, or 46.4% of revenues, compared with a gross profit of $4.4 million or 37.7% of revenues in the prior quarter and a gross profit of $7.1 million, or 43.6% of revenues, in the second quarter of 2014. The increase in the gross margin between quarters is a function of the revenue mix between projects executed and products sold.

Operating income in the second quarter of 2015 was $1.4 million compared to an operating loss of $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2015 and an operating loss of $601 thousand in the second quarter of 2014.

Net income in the second quarter of 2015 was $190 thousand, or $0.01 per share, compared with a net loss of $450 thousand, or $0.03 per share in the first quarter of 2015 and a net loss of $1.1 million, or $0.07 per share, in the second quarter of 2014.

Cash, short term deposits and restricted deposits, net of bank debt, as of June 30, 2015, were $32.8 million, or $2.00 per share, compared with cash, short term deposits and restricted deposits, net of bank debt of $28.0 million, or $1.73 per share, as of December 31, 2014.

MANAGEMENT COMMENT

Commenting on the results, Mr. Saar Koursh, CEO of Magal, said, "We are pleased with the results of the second quarter, particularly the improved gross and operating margins. This is as a result of our increased focus on improving our internal processes and efficiencies. In the first half of 2015, we also saw strong cash generation and our net cash position increased to over $32 million at June 30, 2015."

 "Our new technologies are clearly gaining traction and we continue to look for and build new growth engines. A few weeks ago we announced a breakthrough first order for our new fibre optic sensor technology, which will protect more than 200km of buried pipeline. We also look forward to upcoming evaluations of our Roboguard with key customers, who we hope will lead to future orders," concluded Mr. Koursh.
