Board Approves Share Buyback Program

Hauppauge, New York, November 7, 2013 - Orbit International Corp. (NASDAQ:ORBT) today announced results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Third Quarter 2013vs. Third Quarter 2012

Net sales were $6,109,000, as compared to $7,864,000;

Gross margin was 38.7%, as compared to 38.9%;

Net income was $127,000 ($0.03 per diluted share), as compared to $763,000 ($0.17 per diluted share); and,

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock based compensation (EBITDA, as adjusted) was $245,000 ($0.06 per diluted share), as compared to $926,000 ($0.20 per diluted share).

Nine Months 2013vs. Nine Months 2012

Net sales were $19,031,000, as compared to $21,535,000;

Gross margin was 38.6%, as compared to 38.4%;

Net income was $156,000 ($0.03 per diluted share), as compared to net loss of $413,000 ($0.09 loss per share). The net loss for the 2012 nine month period included a non-recurring charge of $1,194,000 in connection with employment contract provisions of a departing senior officer. Excluding this charge, net income for the 2012 nine month period was $781,000 ($0.17 per diluted share);

EBITDA, as adjusted, was $548,000 ($0.12 per diluted share), as compared to $171,000 ($0.04 per diluted share). Excluding the employment contract provision-related charge, EBITDA, as adjusted, for the 2012 nine month period was $1,365,000 ($0.29 per diluted share); and,

Backlog at September 30, 2013 was $12.7 million as compared to $13.6 million at June 30, 2013 and $17.1 million at September 30, 2012.

Mitchell Binder, President & Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our operating performance for the 2013 third quarter continued to be affected by contract delays due to military budget uncertainty and funding reductions related to sequestration. Several of the follow-on orders for our legacy programs, which we expected to receive in late 2012 or early 2013, were only recently awarded to us. These contract delays affected our delivery schedules and resulted in lower net sales.”

Mr. Binder continued, “Our net sales for the 2013 third quarter declined mainly as a result of lower sales at our Orbit Instrument Division and ICS subsidiary. Despite the 22.3% reduction in sales for the quarter, gross margin only slightly decreased due to cost cutting measures taken since mid-2012 and due to a better product mix particularly as a result of lower material consumption at our Orbit Instrument Division and TDL subsidiary. Additionally, due to cost cutting measures, selling general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the current third quarter were slightly below SG&A expenses for the same quarter of 2012, and also 5% and 12% below SG&A expenses for the second and first quarters of 2013, respectively.”

Mr. Binder continued, “Due to current market conditions, our bid and proposal activity is currently below historical levels. Backlog at September 30, 2013 was $12.7 million as compared to $13.6 million at June 30, 2013, and $14.7 million at March 31, 2013. We received several awards prior to quarter end and shortly thereafter for legacy programs, all of which were expected earlier in 2013. We expect additional orders for legacy hardware to be released in the near future and expect that the shortfall in new awards during 2013 will be added into future awards.”

Mr. Binder added, “As previously announced, in 2014 we expect to realize annualized savings of approximately $2 million following the consolidation of all production, engineering and administrative functions currently performed at our Quakertown, PA facility, into our Hauppauge, NY facility. This consolidation should be completed before June 30, 2014 and is expected to reduce labor and overhead costs and further improve our margins. Most importantly, following the consolidation, our Hauppauge facility will have sufficient capacity to support future growth without any significant facility investment.”

Mr. Binder continued, “Contract delays should again impact our operating performance for the 2013 fourth quarter, which is expected to be comparable to our current third quarter performance. However, based on the delivery schedules of the orders recently awarded, and cost cutting measures taken over the past year, we expect 2014 quarterly operating performance to improve when compared to the comparable prior year periods.”

David Goldman, Chief Financial Officer, noted, “Our financial condition remains strong. At September 30, 2013, total current assets were approximately $18.9 million versus total current liabilities of approximately $1.9 million for a 9.8 to 1 current ratio. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of September 30, 2013, aggregated approximately $1.8 million. To offset federal and state taxes resulting from profits, we have approximately $6 million in both federal and state net operating loss carryforwards available, which should enhance future cash flow.”

Mr. Binder concluded, “We continue to use the cash generated by our operations to pay down our debt. In addition, since January 1, 2012, we have repurchased in excess of 311,000 of our shares in the marketplace at an average price of $3.57. Our stock continues to trade below tangible book value which at September 30, 2013 was $3.92 per share as compared to $3.88 at June 30, 2013. Due to our continued confidence that our legacy business remains intact and the expected positive impact of our cost cutting measures, particularly the consolidation of our Hauppauge and Quakertown operations, we believe we will continue to generate cash from our operations in 2014 which should enable us to continue to improve our balance sheet. Furthermore, our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $400,000 of our outstanding common stock in open market or through private transactions. We believe this stock repurchase program, at current market prices, to be an excellent use of our cash.”
