Financial expenses for the first six months of 2010 increased to $671,000 from $262,000 in the comparable six months period last year. The increase was attributed mainly to (a) stock based compensation of $139,000, and $100,000 of interest expenses related to the convertible debt raised in July 2009 and (b) expenses related to currency differences in the amount of $71,000 in the first six months of 2010, compared to currency differences income of $70,000 in the comparable six month period last year.
Net profit for the second quarter amounted to $115,000 compared to a net loss of $2.4 million dollar in the comparable quarter last year.
Net profit for the first six months of 2010 amounted to $15,000 compared to a net loss of $3.1 million in the comparable six month period last year.
Excluding the amortization of intangible assets and stock based compensation, BOS’ net profit was $362,000 in the second quarter of 2010, and $488,000 for the first half of 2010, compared to a net loss of $857,000 and of $1.45 million in the comparable periods last year.
Edouard Cukierman, Chairman of the Board, stated, "We are very pleased with these results, which prove that the company has turned itself around. These results reflect the successful execution of our cost-reduction plan. In parallel, we are continuing to expand our RFID activities, and we expect these positive trends to continue in the future."
Yuval Viner, BOS CEO, stated, "For the first time in many years, we are pleased to report a net profit, as well as two consecutive quarters of operating profit. We are revising our original outlook for 2010: we reiterate our target of $35 million in revenues, and now believe we will end the year with net profit, not only an operating profit. We expect to make several new customer-related announcements in the near future."
