Innovative Solutions & Support, Inc. Announces Third Quarter Fiscal 2023 Financial Results
EXTON, Pa., August 09, 2023--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Innovative Solutions & Support, Inc. ("IS&S" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: ISSC) today announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, which ended June 30, 2023.
For the third quarter of fiscal 2023, net sales increased 14.8% to $8.0 million compared to $6.9 million in the third quarter a year ago. Gross profit in the third quarter of 2023 was $4.7 million, or 59.5% of sales, compared to $4.1 million, or 58.5% of sales in the third quarter of 2022. The Company reported net income of $1.4 million, or $0.08 per share in the third quarter, which was flat to prior year third quarter. The net income reflects an increase in sales at a relatively consistent gross profit, with increases in general and administrative and research and development expenses reflecting the Company’s strategy to invest in and strengthen the organization to support future growth. The Company completed an exclusive license and asset acquisition of several Honeywell product lines on June 30, 2023. The Company did not recognize any revenues and net income related to the product lines in the third quarter of 2023.
Shahram Askarpour, Chief Executive Officer of IS&S, said, "In the third quarter we successfully executed on both our short- and long-term strategies while delivering attractive returns for our shareholders. Most significantly, we licensed several product lines from Honeywell Aerospace, enhancing our current offering with product lines that can be found on literally thousands of aircraft in our target air transport and business aviation markets, with potential to expand that market to the military platform. We expect this license and asset acquisition, together with continued strong organic revenue such as achieved in this quarter, to represent an important inflection point in our revenue growth rate, which we anticipate will have a one-time annual impact of 40%, with an even more significant impact on earnings, where we expect EBITDA to increase by approximately 75%, once operations have been fully integrated in 2024. In addition, it enables us to achieve our objective to better leverage our existing infrastructure, sustain our attractive margins, and be accretive to our earnings in 2024."
Askarpour continued, "Core operations were also strong in the quarter, with 15% organic top line growth and a significant increase in gross profits. This profitability supports our long- term vision that the industry is headed toward more autonomous flight, which requires technology to reduce pilot workload while improving safety. We have undertaken a meaningful increase in our research and development budget to develop new technologies that will be responsive to the evolving market, and we are doing so while still delivering attractive returns for our shareholders. We are excited by the successes we’ve achieved so far this year – growing organically, completing an accretive licenses and asset acquisition, investing for the future – while continuing to generate strong earnings and cash flow."
The Company had $2.6 million of cash on hand as of June 30, 2023, after utilizing the majority of its existing cash for the exclusive license and asset acquisition of the Honeywell product lines. Over the first nine months of the year, the company generated $6.4 million of cash flow from operations. In the fiscal third quarter, to further strengthen its financial position and provide additional liquidity, the Company secured a $20 million term loan. IS&S was able to maintain a strong financial condition with sufficient cash on hand to run the operations of the business with ample liquidity, with access to an increased borrowing capacity.
New orders in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 were approximately $6.9 million, and backlog as of June 30, 2023 was $13.8 million, compared to backlog of $12.6 million as of June 30, 2022. Only purchase orders in hand are included in our sales backlog, which primarily consist of orders from our OEM customers that have long-term programs-- Pilatus PC-24, Textron King Air, Boeing T-7 Red Hawk and the Boeing KC-46A. IS&S expects these programs to remain in production for approximately a decade and anticipates that they will continue to add to the total backlog.
