Snapshot of results:

• Third quarter revenues of $59.2 million, in line with previous guidance

• Third quarter GAAP net loss of $8.2 million; non-GAAP net loss of $3.4 million

• Impressions and consumables revenues both continued to grow year-over-year

• System sales increased quarter-over-quarter on continued conversion of ITMA orders

• Company operations have not been materially impacted by the security situation in Israel

Kornit Digital has reported its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

“We delivered third-quarter revenues within our guidance range despite a challenging macroeconomic environment. Our consumables sales grew year-over-year, while system sales improved sequentially as we continued to convert orders from ITMA,” said Ronen Samuel, Kornit’s Chief Executive Officer.

“We also saw further growth in our direct-to-fabric solutions, resulting in one of the strongest quarters for Presto system sales. Interest in our Atlas MAX Poly system has also been robust, especially in the sports and athleisure market."

"During the quarter, we successfully installed our initial Apollo beta systems, which have received highly encouraging feedback and demonstrated solid uptime, yield, and unit economics. We continue to target general availability for Apollo in the first quarter of 2024 and are building a strong pipeline of both existing and new customers,” Samuel concluded, “Looking ahead, we are taking proactive measures to further diversify our customer base, expand into key textile-producing regions, and resume overall sales growth, while also focusing on enhancing operating efficiencies across the entire company. Our plan includes approaching breakeven on an adjusted EBITDA basis during the fourth quarter and achieving profitable growth for the full year in 2024.”
