AMITYVILLE, N.Y., November 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- NAPCO Security Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: NSSC), one of the leading manufacturers and designers of high-tech electronic security devices, wireless recurring communication services for intrusion and fire alarm systems as well as a leading provider of school safety solutions, today announced financial results for its first quarter of fiscal 2022.

Financial Highlights:

• Net sales for the quarter increased 34% to a first quarter record of $31.1 million as compared to $23.2 million for the same period last year in which net sales were more severely impacted by the COVID pandemic.

• Recurring service revenue for the quarter increased 41% to $10.2 million as compared to $7.3 million for the same period last year. Recurring service revenue now has a prospective annual run rate of $42.6 million based on October 2021 recurring revenues.

• Gross margin for recurring service revenue for the quarter was 86% as compared to 84% for the same period last year.

• Net income for the quarter increased 234% to a quarterly record of $7.8 million, as compared to $2.3 million for the same period a year ago.

• Earnings per share (diluted) for the quarter was $0.42 as compared to $0.13 for the same period a year ago.

• Adjusted EBITDA* for the quarter increased 170% to $8.6 million as compared to $3.2 million for the same period a year ago.

• Adjusted EBITDA* per share (diluted) for the quarter increased 176% to $0.47 as compared to $0.17 for the same period a year ago.

• Net income, earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA* and adjusted EBITDA* per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 all reflected Other income of $3.9 million which resulted from extinguishment of debt. Without such benefit, net income, earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA* and adjusted EBITDA* per share would have been $3.8 million, $0.21, $4.7 million and $0.26, respectively, record results for any first fiscal quarter in the Company’s history.

• Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $43.2 million at September 30, 2021 as compared to $40.2 million at June 30, 2021.

• Cash Provided by Operating Activities for the quarter was $3.5 million as compared to $3.8 million for the same period last year.

Richard Soloway, Chairman and President, commented, "Our first quarter of fiscal 2022 reflects another strong performance by NAPCO, with record-breaking sales for a Q1 of $31.1 million, representing a 34% increase and record-breaking net income of $7.8 million (a record first fiscal quarter even without the $3.9 million debt extinguishment income included in the net income figure). This was the fourth consecutive quarter of year-over-year sales growth and our goal is to surpass the streak of 23 straight that was disrupted in 2020 by COVID-19. I am proud of our exceptional execution, even as we faced tough challenges in the supply chain environment. Our recurring service revenues have remained very strong, achieving 41% growth for the first quarter as compared to the same period a year ago and now have a prospective annual run rate of $42.6 million based on October 2021 recurring revenues. Our hardware sales continued to rebound, increasing 31% to $20.8 million as compared to a COVID-19 impacted level of $15.9 million last year. Gross margin for recurring service revenue continued to be strong at 86% for the quarter, which compared to 84% for the same period last year. While our overall gross profit increased 26% to $13.4 million, our gross margin on hardware decreased to 22%, primarily as a result of increased freight and component parts costs relating to the current, world-wide supply chain problems, as well as a shift in product mix to more of the Company’s Starlink radios (which generate the recurring service revenues). Our commercial radio and fire alarm business, and the RMR (“recurring monthly revenue”) associated with each, was not significantly affected by COVID-19 as commercial buildings must be kept secure. Additionally, the commercial fire alarm business is a "mandated, non-discretionary business" which means, in order to receive a certificate of occupancy for a building, a fire alarm system is mandatory and must always function in compliance with fire codes. Because of the essential nature and high profitability of this sector, the commercial fire alarm business continues to be one of the key areas on which we focus our resources.

Despite the supply chain constraints and shortages of electronic and other parts slowing the pace of revenue realization, NAPCO’s delivery performance has been excellent during these very difficult COVID times and far exceeds many of our competitors and other manufacturing companies. While we have higher than usual backlog levels that may continue into 2022, particularly for electronic products, the strong performance of our 1st quarter was accomplished because NAPCO continues to remain focused on aggressively managing these logistical challenges to ensure that we remain well positioned to meet the needs of our customers. We are rapidly

adapting by re-engineering products, developing alternative supply sources and delivery methods, addressing pricing and continuing to work closely with our customers and suppliers to navigate through these extraordinary times.

Our balance sheet continues to be very strong, with cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities increasing to $43.2 million at September 30, 2021

With school security a paramount concern to many municipalities, our fully integrated technologies for the school security market continues to remain a top priority especially given the healthy margins those products generate. During, the COVID-19 pandemic we experienced postponements of planned security upgrades but did not suffer a significant number of cancellations. With schools now once again open, we expect to see an uptick in activity in this sector during the coming quarters.

We recently introduced Air Access®, our new cellular based, RMR-generating access control system. These products are designed to help locksmiths, security dealers and integrators to build business and RMR-generating accounts for small and medium-sized businesses, just like our burglar and fire alarm dealers do. While still in the very early stages, we expect this product line to provide the Company the opportunity to generate recurring service revenue from each of our major product lines: alarms & connectivity, locking and access control."

Mr. Soloway concluded, "Our record-setting revenue and profitability in Q1 of fiscal 2022, along with continued strong recurring revenue and associated gross margins, continues to give us tremendous momentum as we head into the upcoming quarters of fiscal 2022. Our fundamental strategy is to provide seamless security solutions for our customers and to continue to grow recurring revenue with both existing and new products. I couldn’t be prouder or more confident in the resiliency of the NAPCO team and how it has responded to the challenges brought on by COVID-19. As markets continue to recover, we are excited for the future prospects for growth as our Company continues its efforts to expand our recurring revenue product offerings into all of our product lines. We remain focused on generating strong revenue growth as well as increased profitability for the balance of fiscal 2022 and beyond.”

*Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain non-GAAP measures are included in this press release, including non-GAAP operating income and Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income plus income tax expense, net interest expense, non-cash stock-based expense and depreciation and amortization expense. Non-GAAP operating income does not include amortization of intangibles or stock-based compensation expense.

For example, the terms used in this press release, such as Adjusted EBITDA, do not have a standardized meaning.
