ROCHESTER, NEW YORK, Aug. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Syntec Optics Holdings, Inc. (“Syntec Optics” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: OPTX), a leading provider of mission-critical products to advanced technology defense, biomedical, and communications equipment manufacturers, today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2024.
Second Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

Strong Order Momentum and End-Market Expansion:
- Secured significant orders for space optics to continue growth in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites. Satellite broadband could represent a significant portion of the
$1 trillion global space economy by 2040. - Secured follow-up order for defense heads-up microdisplays and a new order for advanced technology – high-resolution, wide-field-of-view, innovative freeform prism subsystem that makes up high-brightness and high-contrast defense microdisplays for viewing vital information. The 2021 SPIE review valued the photonics-enabled defense marketplace at
$343.6 billion . - Entered the high-growth data center market driven by the deployment of Artificial Intelligence, with the first product order forecasted to more than double to
$3.2 million annually within a year. The data center market is expected to reach$622.4 billion by 2030.
Technological Leadership and Innovation:
- Developed advanced optical solutions, including high-performance, disposable optics for biomedical imaging with a multi-angled, wider field of view and increased imaging detail. SPIE assessed the 2021 photonics-enabled biomedical marketplace as
$201 billion in total revenues. - Demonstrated expertise in designing and manufacturing complex optical systems, such as high numerical aperture lens systems for digital night vision. These systems allow more light to reach the camera sensor, thus enabling better performance in low-light conditions. Such pioneering systems require Syntec’s high technical skills to architect and make the system.
- Developed dedicated production cells to ramp volumes with high yield for space optics and data center connectivity. According to SPIE, one of the ten major end-markets in optics and photonics, communications was valued at nearly
$43 billion in the global marketplace.
Operational Excellence and Strategic Growth:
- Enhanced manufacturing capabilities to support increased production volumes and meet customer demands – launched process development for a fully automated high-volume production line to make disposable medical optics.
- Implemented a strategic growth plan with executive changes to optimize organizational structure and focus on key priorities – Chairman Al Kapoor extended his role to CEO to oversee strategy and inorganic growth. At the same time, then-CEO Joe Mohr took the role of Chief Manufacturing Officer to focus on manufacturing excellence.
- Strengthened financial leadership by appointing a new CFO to support the company's growth trajectory.

We expect our gross margin to hold level or slightly improve based on the profitability of ramping up products. General and administrative costs are expected to increase modestly to enable ramped-up engineering, quality, and pilot production to support continued growth in the third quarter.
Looking to the fourth quarter, we anticipate continued strength from the communications and biomedical end-markets, with additional growth coming from defense-based product launches.
Our products are propelled by tailwinds as we move towards laser-based satellite communications versus radar-based for low latency, biomedical automation, defense equipment modernization, and on-shoring. Mission-critical products use proprietary techniques that provide an economic moat.
Lastly, we expect positive net income in the second half of the year, enabling further investments to energize our continued growth.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company provides non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as a supplement to GAAP financial information to enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s financial performance and to assist investors in evaluating the Company’s results of operations, period over period. Adjusted non-GAAP measures exclude significant unusual items. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures as a supplement to, and not a substitute for financial information prepared on a GAAP basis.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This Annual Report includes a non-GAAP measure that the Company uses to supplement our results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest and other income, tax and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA adjusted for non-recurring items, and business combination expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure that we believe is useful to investors and analysts because it illustrates the underlying financial and business trends relating to our core, recurring results of operations and enhances comparability between periods.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measure under U.S. GAAP and is not intended to be a substitute for any U.S. GAAP financial measure and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry. Investors should exercise caution in comparing our non-GAAP measure to any similarly titled measure used by other companies. This non-GAAP measure excludes certain items required by U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to information reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA
The Company defines adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net earnings (loss) before interest and other expenses, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to exclude non-recurring items as outlined in our 10-Q. The Company utilizes adjusted EBITDA as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe the exclusion of these non-cash and non-recurring charges allows for a more relevant comparison of our results of operations to other companies in our industry and is in accordance with the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Compliance & Disclosure Interpretations (Reference Question 102.03).
