ABILITY INC.

 

On August 30, 2017, Ability Inc. (the “Company”) announced its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

 

2017 Second Quarter Financial Summary

 

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $35,000, compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease was primarily due to slower than anticipated customer adoption of the Company’s new generation system as well as a decrease in sales of the Company’s legacy products because of the ongoing transition to a revenue stream primarily focused on the Company’s new generation system. In addition, the Company suspended recognizing revenues from one of its customers due to collectability issues which resulted in lower revenues than anticipated for the three months ended June 30, 2017. 

 

Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $543,000, compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. This decrease is consistent with the decrease in revenues.

 

Operating loss for both the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $(3.2) million. The operating loss for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016 was the result of lower revenues and higher general and administrative expenses, primarily due to increased legal fees, offset by lower cost of revenues and sales and marketing expenses, primarily due to lower commissions.

 

Net loss for both the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $(3.1), or $(0.13) per basic and diluted share. Negative EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $(3.0) million, compared to $(3.1) million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. Please refer to the financial tables below for a reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP results.

 

2017 Year-to-Date Financial Summary

 

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were $832,000, compared to $7.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease was primarily due to slower than anticipated customer adoption of the Company’s new generation system, as well as decrease in sales of the Company’s legacy products because of the ongoing transition to a revenue stream primarily focused on the Company’s new generation system. In addition, the Company suspended recognizing revenues from one of its customers due to collectability issues which resulted in lower revenues than anticipated for the six months ended June 30, 2017. 

 

Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were $1.2 million, compared to $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. This decrease is consistent with the decrease in revenues.

 

Operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $(6.2) million, compared to $(2.2) million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase was due to lower revenues and higher general and administrative expenses, primarily due to increased legal and professional fees, partially offset by lower cost of revenues and sales and marketing expenses, primarily due to lower commissions.

 

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $(6.1) million, or $(0.25) per basic and diluted share, compared to $(3.3) million, or $(0.14) per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Negative EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $(6.0) million, compared to $(2.0) million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Please refer to the financial tables below for a reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP results.

 

Balance Sheet Highlights

 

Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2017 totaled $6.0 million, compared to $11.8 million as of December 31, 2016. Cash used in operating activities was $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with $548,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Shareholders' equity totaled $3.6 million as of June 30, 2017 compared to $9.7 million as of December 31, 2016.

 

Due to the significant decline in revenues and the increase in legal and professional services fees, the Company has suffered operating losses, and has an accumulated deficit as part of its shareholders’ equity and negative cash flows from operating activities that, along with other matters, raises a substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
