CPS TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2019 RESULTS

Norton, Massachusetts, July 31, 2019. CPS Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ:CPSH) today announced revenues of $6.4 million and operating income of $258 thousand for the quarter ended June 29, 2019.  For the six months ending June 29, 2019, revenues are $11.6 million with an operating loss of $486 thousand. This compares with revenues of $5.2 million and an operating loss of $326 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.  For the six months ending June 30, 2018 revenues were $9.4 million with an operating loss of $1.1 million.

Grant Bennett, President and CEO, said: “Revenues were up in the second quarter due to almost equal increases in AlSiC products and hermetic packages.  Within the AlSiC products, a meaningful portion of the increase was the result of shipments of a new component to a defense contractor.   The new product for a defense contractor is project-based; it will generate revenue in the future periodically but is not in continuous production.  It does illustrate our continued deeper penetration into the defense electronics sector where we believe there are significant additional opportunities.

The gross margin percentage in the second quarter 2019 was 18% raising the year to date gross margin to 11%.  Last year the gross margin for the second quarter was 11% with a year to date gross margin of 8%.   The increase in gross margins is a result primarily of changes in product mix, and secondarily improved efficiencies.”

Mr. Bennett continued, “We are making good progress in bringing in new defense electronics opportunities, which is one of our strategic objectives.  Doing so also contributes positively to another strategic objective, reducing customer concentration.  A majority of our revenues today come from exports, and although most fundamentals remain solid, we are starting to see trade tensions become of greater concern to our customers, and at least in China, directly affect sourcing decisions.  These same tensions exist to a lesser degree in Europe, creating an environment of greater uncertainty.”

 The Company will be hosting its first quarter conference call with investors at 4:30pm on Wednesday, July 31. Those interested in participating in the conference call should dial:
