Innovative Solutions & Support, Inc. Announces Third Quarter Fiscal 2018 Financial Results

 

Exton, PA.  — August 8, 2018— Innovative Solutions & Support, Inc. (“IS&S” or the “Company”) (ISSC) today announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2018, ended June 30, 2018.

 

For the third quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company reported net sales of $3.4 million, compared to third quarter fiscal 2017 sales of $4.5 million.  The Company reported a net loss of $1.0 million, or ($0.06) per share, for the third quarter of 2018 compared to net income of $19,000, or $0.00 per share, in the third quarter a year ago.  In the third quarter a year ago, the Company recorded a $537,000 tax benefit related to a change in the anticipated profitability in the year, while there was no similar benefit in this year’s third quarter.

 

Geoffrey Hedrick, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IS&S, said, “In the third quarter we took action to more clearly focus the organization on those programs that we believe to be critical and represent the greatest sales potential.  Among the programs in which we have the greatest confidence, we believe, is our Autothrottle technology, an innovative breakthrough in turboprop cockpit

 



 

technology.  With PC-12 certification in hand, we are pursuing a second STC, for the King Air.  This quarter we purchased our own King Air aircraft, providing unfettered access to an aircraft in an effort to help expedite certification.  To support these programs, we reorganized certain aspects of the business and revamped our sales and marketing strategy. In addition, the Company undertook a reduction in workforce.  The goal of these actions was to concentrate our resources around what we believe to be our critical programs and reduce our operating expenses.  We believe that we are a stronger organization, more efficient, and more focused on opportunities that have the greatest potential to unlock the value inherent in our innovative technology.”

 

At June 30, 2018, the Company had $20.9 million of cash on hand.  The Company used $2.4 million of cash to acquire a King Air airplane in the quarter.

 

The Company recorded a $259,000 charge in the third quarter as a result of a reduction in workforce/reorganization. Beginning in fiscal 2019, the Company currently expects to realize a savings of $3.5 million on an annual basis in payroll and related costs compared to historical levels and currently expects research and development costs will decrease to 20% of current net sales which is approaching a more historical ratio than the 30% of current net sales seen in recent periods.

 

New orders in the third quarter of fiscal 2018 were $3.6 million and backlog as of June 30, 2018 was $4.0 million.  Backlog excludes potential future sole-source production orders from the Pilatus PC-24, and the KC-46A, all of which the Company expects to remain in production for a decade following completion of their respective development phases. The Company expects that these contracts will add to production sales already in backlog.

 



 

Shahram Askarpour, President of IS&S, added, “During the third quarter we continued to advance our AutoThrottle technology for the King Air aircraft, for which we are working on a new certification.  A flight test with the FAA is scheduled in August which we currently expect will ultimately result in certification of our ThrustSense® AutoThrottle for that platform.  We believe IS&S is now a leaner and more focused organization that boasts a portfolio of the some of the industry’s best price-for-performance technology that targets opportunities in the commercial air transport, military and general aviation markets.”

 

Nine Months Results

 

Total net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 were $10.2 million, compared to $12.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2017. For the nine months ended June 30, 2018, the net loss was ($3.2) million compared to net income of $4.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017.  Nine month results for fiscal 2017 include the benefit of a $3.6 million reduction to selling, general and administrative expenses as well as $4.1 million of other income, both arising from the settlement of a lawsuit.
