Innovative Solutions & Support, Inc. Announces Fiscal 2010

 

Second Quarter Financial Results

 

Exton, PA.  — April 28, 2010 — Innovative Solutions & Support, Inc. (NASDAQ: ISSC) today announced its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 ending March 31, 2010.

 

Net revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 were $5.4 million, up sequentially from $4.6 million in the first quarter of the current fiscal yearThe Company reported a fiscal 2010 second quarter net loss of ($0.7 million) or ($0.04) per fully diluted share, also a sequential improvement compared to the ($0.07) per share loss in the first quarter.  Net revenues were $10.5 million and net income was $1.3 million, or $0.08 per fully diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2009.

 

“Results for the quarter reflect gradual sequential top and bottom line improvement from the first quarter of the current fiscal year.  This is consistent with our expectation that the slowing economy was going to weigh most heavily on first half fiscal 2010 financial performance,” said Geoffrey Hedrick, Chairman and Chief Executive

 



 

Officer of Innovative Solutions & Support, Inc.  “Several other important metrics also improved; with the book-to-bill ratio over 1 and gross margins of 45.2% for the quarter.  Although the sales cycle remains lengthy, buying interest is slowly returning as we are seeing more of our proposal pipeline converted and new sales beginning to get booked.   Margins in the quarter clearly demonstrated that we are sustaining the leverage in our model achieved through cost reductions and productivity improvements.

 

In the quarter, we also obtained an STC to upgrade Eclipse aircraft with the increased functionality of XM Satellite Weather and Class 3 (integral to primary display) E-Charts.  We have begun shipping that product in the second half of the current fiscal year.  We continue to expand the functionality of our products through innovation in order to gain market share, increase profitability and create value for our shareholders.”

 

At March 31, 2010 the Company had $35.6 million of cash on hand, no long-term debt and a backlog of approximately $35 million.

 

Six Month Results

 

Revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2010 were $10 million compared to $21 million for the six months ended March 31, 2009.  For the six months ended March 31, 2010, the net loss was ($1.9 million) or ($0.11) per diluted share compared to a net income of $3.2 million or $0.19 per fully diluted share for the first half of last fiscal year.

 



 

Roman Ptakowski, President of ISSC, added, “Financial performance and market activity in our industry generally lag the broader economy.  Fortunately, with U.S. GDP showing strong growth at the end of last calendar year, capital budgets are recovering, which is awakening our markets.  Both backlog and new orders that had been stalled by the caution that normally accompanies market uncertainty improved sequentially in our second quarter compared to our first quarter.  Our strategy is to grow both our top and bottom line over the long term by continually improving the performance and functionality of our Flat Panel Display System to offer one of the most cost effective solutions to meet the need for improved cockpit safety and situational awareness in the general aviation, military and commercial air transport markets.”

 

Business Outlook

 

Demand in the Company’s end markets remained muted over the first half of the current fiscal year, which dampened the Company’s growing volume of intra quarter book and ship volume, which does not appear in backlog.  With the book-to-bill of slightly greater than 1.0 in the second quarter, order rates appear to be strengthening as proposals transition to contracts.  For the balance of our fiscal year ending September 30, 2010, we anticipate continued quarterly sequential increases in revenue, gross margins and positive operating income.  Our ability to provide specific targets and ranges remains difficult as a result of delays in customer orders due to the current economic climate.  We will provide additional commentary on the balance of the fiscal year during our earnings conference call.

 

The Company will be hosting a conference call Thursday, April 29, 2010 at 10:00 a.m. EDT time to discuss these results and its business outlook.  Please use the
