● Revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022 decreased 1% from the same quarter last year and was approximately flat for 2022 as compared to the prior year. Fluctuations in revenue result from changes in the volume of shipments of our products to our customers, which is impacted by customer demand according to their corresponding products and programs.

● Gross margin increased to 49.4% in the current quarter from 47.1% in the year-ago quarter and decreased to 51.5% for the current year from 54.3% in the prior year. The improvement in gross margin in the current quarter was due to a lower provision for excess and obsolete inventory as compared to the fourth quarter of the prior year. The decline in gross margin for the current year was due to higher materials and components costs on certain orders and changes in customer and product mix.

● Income/loss from operations was a loss of $345 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with a loss of $411 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2021. Income/loss from operations was a loss of $668 thousand for 2022, compared with a loss of $79 thousand in 2021. Operating income/loss in 2022 was impacted by lower gross profit and higher operating expenses due to additional employee headcount, increased costs on prototyping and product development activities, and increased professional services costs for initiatives such as acquisition pursuits. Additionally, operating income/loss in 2021 benefited from a $129 thousand research incentive grant from the Singapore government and a $186 thousand benefit from forgiveness of the PPP loan the Company received in 2020.

● The Company’s net income of $1.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 and $1.7 million for the 2022 year included a realized non-operating gain of approximately $2.4 million on an approximately $6 million passive public equity investment it made earlier in 2022, for a return of over 40%. The Company did not own any marketable securities in the prior year periods.

● Interlink ended the year with $10.1 million of cash and cash equivalents after completing the acquisition of SPEC Sensors and KWJ Engineering in December 2022 for approximately $2.3 million. Since year-end, Interlink completed the acquisition of Calman Technology Limited with an initial closing payment of $4.4 million.

“We finished 2022 with the SPEC/KWJ acquisition and have now completed the Calman Technology purchase, positioning us for significant growth in the current fiscal year and beyond,” said Steven N. Bronson, Chairman, President, and CEO of Interlink. “We will continue to make investments in product development, sales and executive talent for the remainder of 2023.”
