Avidan Zelicovsky, BOS President, stated: "We are pleased with the improvement in our financial results as compared to the comparable quarter last year and the first quarter this year. In the first half of the year we faced a reduction in the gross margin of the Supply Chain Division. The reduction is attributed to the expansion of our business in India which carries lower gross margins. We anticipate improvement in the gross margin of the Supply Chain Division in the second half of year 2013."

Eyal Cohen, BOS CFO, stated: "Our cash and cash equivalents and long term bank deposit amounted to $856,000 as of June 30, 2013 and $792,000 as of December 31, 2012.

Our bank loans as of June 30, 2013 were reduced to $8.1 million from $8.4 million as of December 31, 2012. We expect a further reduction of loans during year 2013."
