NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

General

The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2019 have been prepared by the Company, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for financial information. These financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2019 and the results of operations for the six months then ended. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The results of operations presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future quarters or for the year ending December 31, 2019.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, related notes and other information included in this report and with the Risk Factors included in Part 1 Item 3 in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC.

This Report contains statements that may constitute “forward-looking statements”. Generally, forward-looking statements include words or phrases such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “will”, the negative of such terms, and words and phrases of similar import. Such statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties could cause our actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement represents our expectations or forecasts only as of the date it was made and should not be relied upon as representing its expectations or forecasts as of any subsequent date. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, even if our expectations or forecasts change.

Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 and related updates

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This new standard introduced a number of changes and simplified previous guidance, primarily the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. The new standard retained the distinction between finance leases and operating leases and the classification criteria between the two types remains substantially similar. Also, lessor accounting remained largely unchanged from previous guidance. However, key aspects of the new standard were aligned with the revenue recognition guidance in Topic 606.

The Company applied the modified retrospective approach without adjusting comparative periods, as of January 1, 2019.

The Company has performed a comprehensive assessment of the impact of the adoption of new lease accounting guidance including reviewing its existing lease contracts, scoping the relevant contracts that include a lease as well as assessing the impact to business processes and related disclosure requirements.

The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company chose to apply the following permitted practical expedients:

Not to reassess its prior conclusions regarding lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs under the new standard.

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)

Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 and related updates (continued)

Applying the practical expedient pertaining to the use-of hindsight.

Short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases with a term shorter than 12 months. This means, that for those leases, the Company does not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities.

Applying the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all of the Company’s leases as a lessee.

The Company as a lessee

Leases are classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. A lease is a finance lease if it meets any one of the criteria below, otherwise the lease is an operating lease:

The lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term.

The lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise.

The lease term is for the major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset.

The present value of the sum of the lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee that is not already reflected in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset.

The underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of lease term.

Based on the criteria above, all of the Company's leases should be classified as operating leases.

Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term, while the ROU assets are also adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease payments. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of the lease payments.

The lease term is the non-cancellable period of the lease plus periods covered by an extension or termination option if it reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option.

After lease commencement, the Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the remaining lease payments using the discount rate determined at lease commencement (as long as the discount rate hasn’t been updated as a result of a reassessment event).

The Company subsequently measures the ROU asset at the present value of the remaining lease payments, adjusted for the remaining balance of any lease incentives received, any cumulative prepaid or accrued rent if relevant and any unamortized initial direct costs. Lease expenses are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease terms will include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise or not exercise the option to renew or terminate the lease.

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)

Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 and related updates (continued)

Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate

On the commencement date, the lease payments shall include variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate (such as the Consumer Price Index or a market interest rate), initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date.

The Company does not remeasure the lease liability for changes in future lease payments arising from changes in an index or rate unless the lease liability is remeasured for another reason. Therefore, after initial recognition, such variable lease payments are recognized in profit or loss as they are incurred.

Reclassification

Certain amounts have been reclassified in prior years balance sheets and statements of operations to conform with current period presentation.

NOTE 2 – ORGANIZATION

Description of Business

ICTS International N.V. (“ICTS”) was established by the Department of Justice in Amstelveen, Netherlands on October 9, 1992. ICTS and subsidiaries (collectively referred to as, the “Company” or “ICTS”) operates in three reportable segments: (a) Corporate (b) Airport security and other aviation services and (c) Technology. The corporate segment does not generate revenue and contains primarily non-operational expenses.

The airport security and other aviation services segment provide security and other services to airlines and airport authorities, predominantly in Europe and the United States of America.

The technology segment is predominantly involved in the development and sale of authentication and identity security software to customers, predominantly in the Unites States of America and Europe.

Financial Condition

As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company has a working capital deficit of $38,837 and $7,839 respectively and shareholders deficit of $31,420 and $34,856. During the periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred net loss from continuing operations of $657 and $1,531 respectively.

Management believes that the Company’s operating cash flows and third-party financing activities together with funds received following issuance of shares to third parties in ABC Technologies B.V. (see note 12) will provide it with sufficient funds to meet its obligations and execute its business plan for the next twelve months. However, there are no assurances that management's plans to generate sufficient cash flows from operations will be successful.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – BUSINESS COMBINATION

Acquisition in Sweden

In July 2018, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Detact Security Solution AB. The purpose of the acquisition was to penetrate the Swedish aviation and cargo markets. Consideration of the acquisition was 9.5 million SEK ($1,027 as of June 30, 2019), of which 6.5 million SEK ($702 as of June 30, 2019) was paid in cash upon the signing of the purchase contract and 3.0 million SEK ($325 as of June 30, 2019) was held in escrow for a period of three months or longer in case of disagreement between the parties. As of June 30, 2019, the funds in the escrow account were not released to the seller, following disagreements between the parties.

The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and accordingly a purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their fair value.

The following represents the allocation of the purchase price as of the purchase date in SEK and the translation to United States Dollars as of the purchase date:

	SEK		U.S. Dollars

		9,501		1,065

Goodwill associated with the new acquisition of Detact Security Solution AB was 9,005 SEK ($970 as of June 30, 2019) and deductible for income tax purposes. The goodwill consists principally of the expectations of future earnings and profits from expanding this business. In December 2018, the Company evaluated the goodwill and concluded the goodwill should be fully impaired.

Acquisition in Spain

In January 2018, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Abydos Consultores de Sistemas S.L.U. The purpose of the acquisition was to increase the Company’s activities in Spain. Consideration of the acquisition was €183 ($208 as of June 30, 2019), in cash upon the signing of the purchase contract. The name of Abydos Consultores de Sistemas S.L.U. was changed into I-SEC Aviation Security S.L.

The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and accordingly a purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their fair values.

The goodwill arising from this acquisition consist principally of the expectations of future earnings and profits from expending this business. In December 2018 the Company evaluated the goodwill and concluded that the goodwill should be fully impaired.

NOTE 4 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company committed to a plan to cease the aviation security operations of its subsidiary in Cyprus.

The Company's balance sheet accounts from the above discontinued operations as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were all nil.

NOTE 5 – INVESTMENTS

The Company follows Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, of FASB ASC. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value should be based on assumptions that market participants would use.

In determining the fair value, the Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy, as follows:

Level 1 -

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Companies have the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 -

Inputs to the valuation methodology include:

•

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

•

Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

•

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;

•

Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 -

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company accounts for investments in the equity securities of companies which represent an ownership interest of 20% to 50% and the ability to exercise significant influence, provided that ability does not represent control, using the equity method. The equity method requires the Company to recognize its share of the net income (loss) of its investees in the consolidated statement of operations until the carrying value of the investment is zero.

Artemis Therapeutics, Inc.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company owns 198,311 shares or 3.8% of the outstanding common stock of Artemis Therapeutics, Inc (“ATMS”).

The Company suspended its use of the equity method to accounting for this investment in 2007 after its investment balance was reduced to zero.

As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company’s share of the underlying net assets of ATMS does not exceed the Company’s carrying value of its investment in ATMS ($0 at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018). The market value of the Company's investment in ATMS as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is $35 and $119 respectively.

The Company evaluated the stock price of ATMS, but as the amount of shares that are being traded is low and as ATMS still does not have any revenue the Company determined that the value of the investment is impaired and accordingly, valued the investment at zero.

NOTE 5 – INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED)

White Line B.V.

In March 2017, the Company invested an amount of $2,000 in White Line B.V., a limited company incorporated in the Netherlands. White Line is a holding and finance company. Because White Line B.V. is a private, closely-held company, there is no active market for this investment. Therefore, the Company accounts for this investment under the cost method. In October 2017, the Company invested additional amount of $1,500 in White Line. The total investment represented 10% of the issued and outstanding share capital of White Line.

The Company had an agreement with an entity related to its main shareholder, according to which, if the value of this investment decrease, the related party entity has guaranteed to repurchase this full investment at a minimum amount of $3,500. The guaranty is effective after three years of the date of purchase and terminates after five years.

In December 2018, the Company reached into an agreement with the related party entity in order to preface the sale of the investment. The related party entity purchased the full investment from the Company in December 2018, for $3,500 in exchange for reduction in the convertible notes payable to a related party.

Freezone I-SEC Korea Inc.

In April 2018, the Company signed a Joint Venture Agreement with a South Korean Company in order to establish a Joint Venture Company (“JVC”) and to provide aviation security and non-security services in South Korea. Each one of the parties holds 50% (fifty percent) of the JVC’s equity. The Company uses the equity method for this investment. As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company’s investment is approximately 334,000 and 284,000 KRW respectively ($289 as of June 30, 2019 and $255 as of December 31, 2018). The Company recognized a profit from its investment in JVC 50,073 and 0 KRW ($45 and $0 as of June 30, 2019, and 2018 respectively).

NOTE 8 – LOAN PAYABLE

In December 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with a financing company to provide it €2,000 ($2,279 as of June 30, 2019) as a loan until December 2020. The loan can be repaid earlier but not before December 2019. The loan bears interest of ten percent per annum. Interest is being paid quarterly.

NOTE 9 – DEBT TO RELATED PARTIES

Convertible notes payable to a related party

In May 2014, the Company entered into an arrangement with an entity related to its main shareholder, which replaced all previous arrangements between the parties, to provide it with up to $37,000 in revolving loans through December 2016. The term of the arrangement can be automatically extended for four additional six-month periods at the option of the holder. All outstanding borrowings from previous arrangements were applied to the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement. Loans received under the arrangement bear interest, which is compounded semi-annually and payable at maturity, at the interest rate charged by the Company’s European commercial bank (LIBOR plus 6% for U.S. dollar-denominated loans and the base rate plus 2% for Euro-denominated loans). The arrangement is secured by a 26% interest in one of the Company's European subsidiaries. In connection with the arrangement, the holder was granted an option to convert outstanding notes payable (including accrued interest) under the arrangement into the Company's common stock at a price of $1.50 per share. The Company determined that the new arrangement did not represent a substantive modification and, therefore, it was not necessary to evaluate whether the conversion feature qualified as a free-standing derivative instrument or contained any intrinsic value which would be considered beneficial.

In October 2015, the Supervisory Board of Directors approved to reduce the convertible price of the unpaid interest from $1.50 per share to $0.75 per share. In addition, the loan period was extended until January 1, 2018. The terms of the arrangement can be automatically extended for four additional six months periods at the option of the holder. The Company determined that the new arrangement did not represent a substantive modification and therefore it was not necessary to evaluate whether the conversion feature qualifies as a free-standing derivative instrument or contained any intrinsic value which would be considered beneficial.

NOTE 9 – DEBT TO RELATED PARTIES (CONTINUED)

Convertible notes payable to a related party (continued)

In September 2016, the Supervisory Board of Directors approved an increase in the interest rate of the loan from the entity related to the main shareholder, by one percent, retroactively for the whole period of the loan. The Company determined that the new arrangement did not represent a substantive modification and therefore it was not necessary to evaluate whether the conversion feature qualifies as a freestanding derivative instrument or contained any intrinsic value, which would be considered beneficial.

In December 2017 the loan period was extended until January 1, 2019. The terms of the arrangement can be automatically extended for four additional six months periods at the option of the holder.

In October 2018 the loan period was extended until June 30, 2020. The terms of the arrangement can be automatically extended for four additional six months periods at the option of the holder.

In January 2019, the entity related to the main shareholder converted $2,889 accrued interest into 3,852,364 shares at a price of $0.75 per share.

In May 2019 the Company granted to the entity related to the main shareholder who provided loans to the Company as convertible notes, the option to convert up to $2 million of the loan into the Company’s shares at a price of $0.4 per share. All other conversion rights for the balance of the debt except $2.6 million which is convertible at a price of $0.75 per share, are eliminated.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, convertible notes payable to a related party consist of $21,205 and $22,097, respectively, in principal and $5,874 and $8,835, respectively, in accrued interest. Interest expense related to these notes is $1,106 and $1,087 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Loan to related party

In March 2017, the Company signed a loan agreement with a related party, to provide the Company a loan of $2,000 for up to one year bearing 7% interest per year. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the loan payable to related party consist of $200 and $200, respectively, in principal and $175 and $168, respectively in accrued interest. The Company incurred interest expenses regarding this loan of $7 and $40 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

NOTE 10 - REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when the promised services are performed for our clients, and the amount that reflects the consideration we are entitled to receive in exchange for those services is determined. The Company’s revenues are recorded net of any sales taxes.

As of January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Topic 606 and all subsequent amendments to the ASU, using the modified retrospective approach.

In order to determine the revenue, we (1) identify the contract with the client, (2) identify the performance obligations, usually it’s based on the hours spent, (3) determination of the transaction price, (4) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligation and (5) we recognize revenue as performance obligation is satisfied.

ICTS INTERNATIONAL N.V. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(US $ in thousands, except share and per share data)

NOTE 10 – REVENUE RECOGNITION (CONTINUED)

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct service to the client, and it is the unit of account in the new accounting guidance for revenue recognition. The majority of our contracts have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual services is not separately identifiable from other promises in our contracts and, therefore, is not distinct.

The following table presents the Company’s revenues according to the Company’s segments:

	Period ended June 30,
	2019		2018
Airport Security and Other Aviation Services	$	152,622		161,839
Technology		11,870		6,973
Total revenues	$	164,492	$	168,812

The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by geography according to the customers billing address:

	Period ended June 30,

The Netherlands		49,007	30	%		59,257	35	%
United States		35,787	22	%		33,129	20	%
Other countries		12,197	7	%		7,770	4	%
Total revenues	$	164,492	100	%	$	168,812	100	%

Airport Security and Other Aviation Services Segment

In the airport security and other aviation services, for performance obligations that we satisfy over time, revenues are recognized by consistently applying a method of measuring hours spent on that performance obligation. We generally utilize an input measure of time (hours and attendance for specific time framed service like specific flights) of the service provided. Performance obligations are satisfied over the course of each month and continue to be performed until the contract has been terminated or cancelled.

Pricing and Reduction to Revenues

We generally determine standalone selling prices based upon the prices included in the client contracts, using expected costs plus margin, or other observable prices. The price as specified in our client contracts is generally considered the standalone selling price as it is an observable input that depicts the price as if sold to a similar client in similar circumstances. Certain client contracts have variable consideration, including quality thresholds or other similar items that could reduce the transaction price. These amounts may be constrained and revenue is recorded to the extent we do not expect a significant reversal or when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Our variable consideration amounts, if any, are not material, and we do not expect significant changes to our estimates.

NOTE 10 – REVENUE RECOGNITION (CONTINUED)

Contracts

Our client contracts generally include standard payment terms acceptable in each of the countries, states and territories in which we operate. The payment terms vary by the type and location of our clients and services offered. Client payments are typically due in thirty to sixty days after invoicing, but may be a shorter or longer term depending on the contract. Our client contracts in the material countries are generally long term between three to five years. The timing between satisfaction of the performance obligation, invoicing and payment is not significant.

Practical Expedients and Exemptions

Because nearly all our contracts are based on input measure of time of service provided (as hours or attendance) no exemptions need to be made. We have no contracts with revenues expected to be recognized subsequent to June 30, 2019 related to remaining performance obligations.

Revenue Service Types

The following is a description of our revenue service types, including Airport Security, Airline Security, Cargo Security, Other Airport Services, General Security Services and Other.

Airport Security

Staffing or manning for specialized airport security are usually based on long term contract issued via a public tender procedure. We recognize revenue given the unit of measure (hours) provided in the given time period and the specific price for specific hours agreed upon in the contracts. Quality and criteria of staffing are described in the contracts and are measured in the given time period. Deviations, if any, are discussed with the customer before invoicing and will be reflected in the invoice showing the approved hours and other cost elements as agreed upon price.

Most contracts have an hourly rate that reflects an all-in tariff based on a full cost price calculation. In some of the contracts the hourly rates are split between a component based on hours and a component based on specific costs in a specific time period but always linked to the service provided in given time period. Revenue is recognized at the time period set in the contract.

Airline Security

Staffing or manning for airline security are usually based on long term contracts issued via a public tender procedure. We recognize revenue according to the unit of measure provided (usually attendance for specific time framed service like specific flights). The time framed specialized security services are in this case are the executed number of flights. When the manning for the security of these flights are delivered, the Company invoices the customer according to the agreed flight tariff.

Cargo Security

Staffing or manning for specialized cargo security are usually based on long term contracts, sometimes publicly tendered. Contracts are based on hourly planned and executed screening services. Revenue is recognized based on the realized screening hours and contractually agreed upon hourly rate.

Revenue Service Types (continued)

Other Airport Services

Airport Services include wheelchair attendants, pre-departure skycaps, bag-runners, agents, guards, charter security screening, janitorial, and cabin cleaning to major U.S. and foreign carriers in airports throughout the United States. Our contracts may include either single or multiple performance obligations and vary by airport and airline. We recognize revenue given the unit of measure (hours) provided in the given time period and the specific price for specific hours or attendance for specific event, time framed service as agreed upon in the contracts.

General Security Services

Security Services include providing armed and un-armed guards to private schools and places of worship, video surveillance and patrol. Contracts for security services generally include only a single performance obligation. We generally recognize revenue for security guard services. We recognize revenue for security guard given the unit of measure (hours) provided in the given time period. Revenue from video surveillance and patrol is recognized based upon a fixed monthly rate.

Other Services

Other services include revenues from (incidental) specialized security manning services, training services and ad hoc work performed on and off airports. Revenue is recognized over time as services are being performed, using the input of service delivered during the time period, according to the contractual agreed price.

Technology Segment

In the technology segment, the Company offers authentication services on a cost per click basis, with a minimum yearly commitment which means the customer pays the Company according to the higher of (a) number of times the customer used the system in order to authenticate IDs or (b) according to the yearly minimum commitment. According to the agreement with the customers, each chargeable click has an agreed price and revenue is being recognized accordingly.

Pricing and Reduction to Revenues

We generally determine standalone selling prices based upon the prices included in the client contracts, using expected costs plus margin, or other observable prices. The price as specified in our client contracts is generally considered the selling price as agreed with the customer. Certain client contracts have variable consideration which are based on quantity of usage. These amounts may be constrained and revenue is recorded to the extent we do not expect a significant reversal or when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Our variable consideration, if any, amounts are not material, and we do not expect significant changes to our estimates.

Technology Segment (continued)

Contracts

Our client contracts generally include standard payment terms acceptable in each of the countries, states and territories in which we operate. The payment terms vary by the type and location of our clients and services offered. The minimum commitment is usually being paid in advance. Client payments are typically due in 30 days after invoicing, but may be a shorter or longer term depending on the contract. Our client contracts are usually for a one-year period with a renewal option. The timing between satisfaction of the performance obligation, invoicing and payment is not significant.

Deferred Revenues

We record deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance. Deferred revenues at June 30, 2019 and 2018 were $1,332 and $771, respectively shown as part of the accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $46 and $0 shown as other liabilities.

Our payment terms vary by the type and location of our customer and the products or services offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant.

Practical Expedients and Exemptions

We generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within sales and marketing expenses.

NOTE 11 – SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

The Company operates in three reportable segments: (a) Corporate (b) Airport security and other aviation services and (c) Technology. The corporate segment does not generate revenue and contains primarily non-operational expenses.

The airport security and other aviation services segment provide security and other services to airlines and airport authorities, predominantly in Europe and the United States of America. The technology segment is predominantly involved in the development and sale of authentication and identity security software to customers, predominantly in the United States of America and Europe. All inter-segment transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue

Total revenue decreased from $168,812 in the first six months of 2018 to $164,492 in the first six months of 2019.

Revenue from Aviation Security activities in Europe and the Far East decreased by $8,789 in the first six months of 2019, compared to the comparable period in 2018. The main reasons for the decrease are: (i) Termination of the contract of Procheck International Security B.V. (“Procheck”), a subsidiary of ICTS which provided services in the Netherlands, as of December 31, 2018. (ii) Average exchange rate Dollar-Euro for the first six months decreased from 1.21 Dollar to Euro in the first six months of 2018 to 1.13 Dollar to Euro in the first six months of 2019. The six months revenue of 2019 would have increased by $8,867 if translated to Dollars according to the six months average exchange rate of 2018. These effects were set off with increase of revenues in local currency (Euro) mostly in Germany and the Netherlands (excluding Procheck), following an increase of services provided to existing customers.

Revenue from other Aviation Services provided in the United State of America (“U.S”) decreased by $428 in the first six months of 2018 compared to the comparable period in 2018.

Revenue from the Technology segment for the period ended June 30, 2019 was increased by $4,897 compared to the comparable period in due to the continuing trend of growth in the Technology segment, achieved by expending our services to new and existing customers.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue for the period ended June 30, 2019 was $143,887 (87.5% as percentage of revenue) compared to $149,895 (88.8% as percentage of revenue) for the first six months of 2018. Cost of revenue as percentage of revenue decreased in the first six months of 2019 compared to the comparable period in 2018, mostly because of the increase of the technology segment and the difference between its margins which is higher than the Aviation and related services segment.

Research and Development (“R&D”)

R&D expenses for the period ended June 30, 2019 were $1,969 (1.2% as percentage of revenue) compared to $2,134 (1.3% as percentage of revenue) for the first six months of 2018. R&D expenses are relatively stable and fluctuation is affected by changes in exchange rates.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”)

SG&A expenses were $16,327 for the period ended June 30, 2019 (9.9% as percentage of revenue) compared to $15,963 (9.4% as percentage of revenue) for the first six months of 2018. There are two main reasons for the increase in the SG&A costs: (i) Increase in means and costs in order to provide and control the existing operations. (ii) Increase in selling efforts regarding the Technology segment which resulted in an increase of revenues in that segment.

Other expense, net

Other expense net includes mainly interest to banks, related parties and other institutions, exchange rate income (expense) and bank charges. Other expense, net, was $2,049 (1.2% as percentage of revenue) for the first six months of 2019 compared to $1,572 (0.9% as percentage of revenue) for the comparable period ending June 30, 2018.

Interest expenses to related parties totaled $1,113 in the first six months of 2019 compared to $1,087 in the comparable period of 2018.

The main currency that is being revaluated in the Company is the Euro, which is being translated to U.S. Dollars. Average exchange rate for the profit and loss transactions revaluation decreased from 1.21 Dollar to Euro for the first six months of 2018 to 1.13 Dollar to Euro for the first six months of 2019.
