"We are proud to announce our strong second quarter results for 2023, with a growth of 21% in sales compared to the same quarter last year. The second quarter is characterized by a relatively low
number of working days due to holidays. Despite this, we managed to achieve $11 million in sales," said Eli Yaffe, CEO of Eltek.
"Throughout the quarter, we continued to experience the demand for our high-end, high-reliability products. In light of the continued demand for our products, we continue our efforts to recruit
employees and to procure and install new machines that will enable us to increase manufacturing capacity," continued Mr. Yaffe.
"Earlier this month, we were informed by the Ministry of Environmental Protection that it rejected our claim to reduce the clean air penalty imposed on us. Therefore, we have provided a full
allowance for this penalty in our Q2 interim financial statements and recorded a one-time expense in the amount of $0.35 million," concluded Mr. Yaffe.
