Innovative Solutions & Support, Inc. Announces Second Quarter Fiscal 2024 Financial Results

ISSC

Innovative Solutions & Support, Inc. (“IS&S” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ISSC) today announced its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2024, which ended March 31, 2024.

For the second quarter of fiscal 2024, IS&S reported net sales of $10.7 million, up 46% from $7.3 million in the second quarter a year ago. The Company reported net income of $1.2 million, or $0.07 per share, compared to net income of $1.3 million, or $0.07 per share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2023.

Sales and earnings in the second quarter of 2024 continued to benefit from the product lines acquired from Honeywell International, Inc. (“Honeywell”) pursuant to an exclusive license and asset acquisition that closed in the third quarter of 2023. Costs for the quarter included approximately $500,000 of amortization of customer relationship and one-time non-recurring items related to the Honeywell acquisition and other corporate matters. Excluding the one-time non-recurring costs of the Honeywell acquisition, profitability also increased from the year ago comparative quarter.

Shahram Askarpour, Chief Executive Officer of IS&S, said, “The momentum of our business continued as we delivered double-digit sales growth. The second-quarter results were consistent with our expectations and driven by our focused execution. I also want to welcome Jeff DiGiovanni, who joined us last month as CFO and will be a key contributor to our long-term planning and strategy. This past quarter featured a continuation of our plans to grow both organically, through new product development and expansion into related markets, as well as via acquisitions.”

Over the first half of fiscal 2024, the Company generated $4.4 million of positive cash flow despite all one-time expenses associated with the acquisition and integration.

New orders in the second quarter of fiscal 2024 were approximately $6.6 million, and backlog as of March 31, 2024, was $10.4 million. The backlog includes only purchase orders in hand and excludes orders from our OEM customers under long-term programs, such as Pilatus PC-24, Textron King Air, Boeing T-7 Red Hawk and the Boeing KC-46A. IS&S expects these programs to remain in production for several years and anticipates they will continue to generate future sales. Further, due to their nature, the products licensed from Honeywell do not typically enter backlog.

Conference Call

The Company will be hosting a conference call on Monday, May 13, 2024, at 10:00 AM ET to discuss these results and the Company’s business outlook and product development. Please use the following dial-in number to register your name and Company affiliation for the conference call: 844-739-3798 and ask to join the Innovative Solutions & Support call. The call will also be carried live on the Investor Relations page of the Company web site at www.innovative-ss.com.
