ITEM 1 Magal Security Systems Reports Fourth Quarter 2008 and Year-End 2008 Financial Results Press Release Source: Magal Security Systems Ltd On Monday July 13, 2009, 7:08 am EDT YAHUD, Israel, July 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Magal Security Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ GMS: MAGS, TASE: MAGS) today announced its consolidated financial results for the three and twelve months periods ended December 31, 2008. Management will hold an investors' conference call later today, at 10am ET Time, 5pm Israel time, to discuss the results. FOURTH QUARTER 2008 RESULTS Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2008 totaled US$29.9 million, an increase of 29.1% over the fourth quarter of 2007. Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2008 decreased by 22.8% compared with the fourth quarter of 2007, reaching US$6.4 million, or 21.5% of revenues. Gross margin for the quarter was negatively impacted by inventory write off of US$ 2.0 million, compared with US$646,000 in 2007 following the cancellation of a project in Latin America and the write off of certain products and equipment in the Company's North American R&D and manufacturing activities. Gross margin was also impacted by the relatively low gross margin generated by the Company's European system integration subsidiary, consolidated as of September 2007. Operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2008 was US$21.4 million, compared with operating income of US$763,000 in the fourth quarter of 2007. The quarterly operating loss is attributable to the increase in cost of revenues, impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets amounting to US$12.9 million as well as one-time post employment and termination benefits expenses of US$2.1 million. The impairment charges were primarily attributable to the European system integration subsidiary (acquired in September 2007) and the reduction in the fair value of our U.S. subsidiary. Net loss in the fourth quarter of 2008, was US$24.0 million, compared with net income of US$2.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2007. Loss per share for the fourth quarter of 2008 was US$2.31, compared with diluted earnings per share of US$0.28 in the same period last year. FULL YEAR 2008 RESULTS Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008 was US$70.4 million, a 2.8% decrease compared with the previous year. The decrease is primarily attributable to the lower revenues generated by our Latin American subsidiary and a reduction in revenues in the United States. Gross profit for the year decreased by 26.7% to US$21.2 million, or 30.1% of revenues, compared with US$28.9 million, or 39.9% of revenues, in 2007. This decrease is mainly attributable to the afore-mentioned inventory write offs of US$2.0 million in 2008, the contribution of our European subsidiary as indicated above, the 12.8% appreciation of the Israeli Shekel ("NIS") during 2008 against the U.S. dollar which increased the U.S. dollar value of the Company's NIS denominated expenses as well as a loss provision attributable to two strategic projects. Operating loss for 2008 was US$28.6 million, compared with operating income of US$2.7 million in 2007. The operating loss was primarily attributable to the one-time impairment of goodwill and other intangible asset charges of US$12.9 million and one-time post employment and termination benefits expenses of US$2.6 million, the majority of which were recorded in the fourth quarter of 2008. Net loss for 2008 was US$32.6 million compared with net income of US$1.9 million in 2007. Net Loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2008 was US$3.14, compared with diluted earnings per share of US$0.18 in the year 2007. Commenting on the results, Mr. Yaacov Perry, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company, said: "Magal, a leading international provider of security, safety, site management and intelligence analysis, has undergone deep refocusing measures in recent months,. which were undertaken with a view to better equip the company to continue to grow and expand and meeting the evolving market demands through its premier portfolio. Looking ahead, Magal is now entering the next stage of its development, and I wish the incoming CEO, Eitan Livneh, the best of success in taking the company to the next echelon of growth and success."
