- Profit before tax was $2.6 million compared to $1.2 million at Q3 2022.

"In the third quarter of 2023, we achieved impressive financial results. We generated $11.9 million in revenue, leading to a robust gross profit of $3.7 million and a net profit of $2.1 million. These exceptional numbers reflect the strong market demand for our products, underpinned by our efficient order selection, which strikes a balance between maximizing profitability and aligning with our production capabilities. As of the end of the quarter, our cash and cash equivalents stood at $11.3 million, providing substantial financial support for our upcoming capital expenditure needs," said Eli Yaffe, CEO of Eltek.
"The ongoing conflict in Israel underscores the critical significance of a domestic PCB industry. Such an industry would not only offer advanced technological solutions but also produce intricate circuits tailored to specific defense requirements, employing state-of-the-art technology, and ensuring the highest quality standards. Additionally, it would enable swift delivery to meet the immediate demands of the defense sector. Eltek holds the status of an Essential Enterprise as designated by the Israeli government, granting us permission to operate around the clock, 365 days a year, as needed," continued Mr. Yaffe.
"Over the past weeks, and up to the present moment, we have maintained seamless operations without any disruptions. In certain instances, we've even accelerated the delivery of products to our valued customers. Our dedicated workforce remains fully engaged, reporting for duty on their regular schedules. We have implemented a series of strategic measures to ensure we meet our customers' demands. These includes securing commitments from our suppliers to continue delivering the essential raw materials to our facility in conformance with our orders, bolstering our inventory levels for selected raw materials and expediting the deliveries of crucial resources," continued Mr. Yaffe.
"Eltek management and employees bow their heads in memory of those killed in the murderous attack that happened on October 7, 2023. Our thoughts and prayers are with the injured for a speedy recovery and the safe return of those who were abducted," concluded Mr. Yaffe.
