Werte in diesem Artikel
IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Interlink Electronics, Inc. (Nasdaq: LINK), a world-leading provider of sensors and printed electronic solutions that support a wide range of applications including Human-Machine Interface devices and Internet-of-Things solutions, today announced its financial results for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024.
Revenue for the quarter was approximately $2.7 million, down 13% from the prior-year quarter due to lower shipments of our traditional force-sensor products and of our printed electronics products at our Calman Technology subsidiary, offset in part by higher sales of our gas-sensor products. The decline in our sales and changes in our product mix impacted our gross margin, which was 41.4% for the current quarter compared to 47.4% in the prior-year quarter.
The following table sets forth the consolidated financial results.

- Revenue for the third quarter of 2024 decreased 13% to $2.7 million, compared to $3.1 million for the same quarter last year, due to lower shipments of our traditional force-sensor products and of our printed electronics and other products at our Calman Technology subsidiary, offset in part by higher sales in our Gas and Environmental Sensors division. Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased 16% to $8.7 million, compared to $10.4 million for the prior year, due to lower shipments of our traditional force-sensor products and of our gas-sensor products, offset in part by the inclusion for the full year-to-date period in 2024 of our printed electronics products at our Calman Technology subsidiary, versus only the March-to-September period in 2023. Our revenues for a particular period are impacted by fluctuations in the timing of receipt and fulfilment of customer orders, which varies based on their demand for their own order-flow and production cycles.
- Our robust pipeline of prospective customers and orders includes several large force-sensor and gas-sensor opportunities and we continue to expand our product offerings, particularly for air quality solutions and instruments in our Gas and Environmental Sensors division, all of which provide the potential for organic revenue growth in 2025.
- Gross profit margin for the third quarter was 41.4%, down from 47.4% in the prior-year, and for the first nine months of 2024 was 42.1%, down from 49.1% last year, due primarily in each case to the decline in revenue and changes in the mix of products sold.
- Net income/loss for the quarter was a loss of $523,000, compared with a loss of $125,000 for the same quarter last year. Net income/loss for the first nine months of 2024 was a loss of $1,571,000, compared with income of $65,000 for the same period last year. The increases in net loss were due primarily to lower revenue, together with increased intangible asset amortization expense from the recent acquisition of Calman Technology, offset in part by reduced compensation cost on reduced headcount and lower professional services expenses.
- Adjusted EBITDA for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was negative $260,000 and negative $4,000, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was negative $848,000 and positive $448,000, respectively.
- We ended the quarter with $3.8 million of cash and cash equivalents.
"Despite the challenges we are encountering with several long-term force-sensing customers, we remain very optimistic about our growth prospects for 2025 and 2026," said Steven N. Bronson, Chairman, President, and CEO of Interlink Electronics. "We have adjusted our overall cost structure and increased our efforts to acquire new customers. Additionally, we plan to expand our sales team to drive organic growth and promote our solutions on a global scale."

Forward-looking statements in this press release include statements about our projected sales and revenues. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are inherently subject to uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statement. These statements are based upon, among other things, assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management, including management's own knowledge and assessment of the company's industry, R&D initiatives, competition and capital requirements. Other factors and uncertainties that could affect the company's forward-looking statements include, among other things, the following: our success in predicting new markets and the acceptance of our new products; efficient management of our infrastructure; the pace of technological developments and industry standards evolution and their effect on our target product and market choices; the effect of outsourcing technology development; changes in the ordering patterns of our customers; a decrease in the quality and/or reliability of our products; protection of our proprietary intellectual property; competition by alternative sophisticated as well as generic products; continued availability of raw materials for our products at competitive prices; disruptions in our manufacturing facilities; risks of international sales and operations including fluctuations in exchange rates; compliance with regulatory requirements applicable to our manufacturing operations; and customer concentrations. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by our forward-looking statements are under the captions "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our most recent Annual Report (Form 10-K) or Quarterly Report (Form 10-Q) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), we use the following non-GAAP financial measure: Adjusted EBITDA. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
We define Adjusted EBITDA for a particular period as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and as further adjusted for stock-based compensation expense.
We use this non-GAAP financial measure for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our core business operating results, such as amortization expense related to our recent acquisitions. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to this non-GAAP financial measure in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. This non-GAAP financial measure also facilitates management's internal comparisons to our historical performance and liquidity as well as comparisons to our competitors' operating results. We believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors both because (1) is allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) it is used by our investors to help them analyze the health of our business.
There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP financial measures. We compensate for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures and evaluating these non-GAAP financial measures together with their relevant financial measures in accordance with GAAP.
