TransAct Technologies Reports Preliminary First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Lands Eight New FST Accounts, Representing Potential Terminal Sales of Nearly 1,000 Units

Casino and Gaming Sales Begin Normalization

TransAct Technologies Incorporated (Nasdaq: TACT) (“TransAct” or the “Company”), a global leader in software-driven technology and printing solutions for high-growth markets, today reported preliminary results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

“We have continued confidence in our core product offerings and our ability to win new customers in new deployment situations across a number of verticals, with eight new logos added to our BOHA! platform in the quarter,” said John Dillon, Chief Executive Officer of TransAct. “We are optimistic about the future of TransAct as an agile, transaction validation platform providing tailored solutions to our customers and believe there is significant opportunity in both the near and long-term to target new use cases with our existing products and to enter new markets further down the road.”

First Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

  • Net Sales: Net sales for the first quarter of 2024 were $10.7 million, down as expected due to the pull back in Casino and Gaming. The results were down 52% compared to $22.3 million for the first quarter of 2023 largely as a result of the expected market dynamics and normalizing demand for our Casino and Gaming printers.
  • FST Recurring Revenue: FST recurring revenue for the first quarter of 2024 was $2.4 million, up 3% compared to $2.3 million for the first quarter of 2023.
  • Gross Profit: Gross profit for the first quarter of 2024 was $5.6 million, resulting in gross margin of 52.6%, compared to gross profit of $12.3 million for the first quarter of 2023, which delivered a 55.0% gross margin.
  • Operating (loss) income: Operating loss for the first quarter of 2024 was $(1.3) million, compared to operating income of $3.8 million for the first quarter of 2023.
  • Net (loss) income: Net loss for the first quarter of 2024 was $(1.0) million, or $(0.10) per diluted share, based on 10.0 million weighted average common shares outstanding. Net income for the comparable 2023 period was $3.1 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, based on 10.0 million weighted average common shares outstanding.
  • EBITDA: EBITDA was negative $966 thousand for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $4.2 million for the first quarter of 2023.
  • Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA was negative $701 thousand for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $4.5 million for the first quarter of 2023.

2024 Financial Outlook

  • Total Net Sales: The Company currently expects full year 2024 total net sales of between $45 million and $50 million.
  • Total Adjusted EBITDA: The Company currently expects full year 2024 total adjusted EBITDA to be between negative $2.5 million and negative $3.5 million.

Our outlook for non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is presented only on a non-GAAP basis because not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation of this forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is available without unreasonable effort, primarily due to uncertainties relating to the occurrence or amount of these adjustments that may arise in the future. If one or more of the currently unavailable items is applicable, some items could be material, individually or in the aggregate, to GAAP reported results.

2024 First Quarter Conference Call and Webcast

TransAct is hosting a conference call and webcast today, May 7, 2024, beginning at 8:30 a.m. ET to discuss the Company’s preliminary first quarter 2024 results and other matters. Both the call and the webcast are open to the general public. The conference call number is 877-704-4453 and the conference ID number is 13746173 (domestic or international). Please call ten minutes prior to the presentation to ensure that you are connected.

Interested parties may also access the conference call live on the Internet at www.transact-tech.com (select “Company” followed by “Investor Relations” followed by “Events & Presentations”). Approximately two hours after the call has concluded, an archived version of the webcast will be available for replay at the same location.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

TransAct is providing certain non-GAAP financial measures because the Company believes that these measures are helpful to investors and others in assessing the ongoing nature of what the Company’s management views as TransAct’s core operations. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide the Company with an understanding of one aspect of earnings before the impact of investing and financing charges and income taxes. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide relevant and useful information to an investor evaluating the Company’s operating performance because these measures are: (i) widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items that do not reflect the Company’s ongoing operations and are excluded from the calculation of such measures; (ii) used as financial measurements by lenders and other parties to evaluate creditworthiness; and (iii) used by the Company’s management for various purposes including strategic planning and forecasting and assessing financial performance. The presentation of this non-GAAP information is not considered superior to or a substitute for, and should be read in conjunction with, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA is defined as net (loss) income before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. A reconciliation of EBITDA to net (loss) income, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found attached to this release.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net (loss) income before net interest (income) expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and is adjusted for (1) share-based compensation and (2) any other items, when they occur, that we believe do not reflect the ordinary earnings of the Company’s ongoing business. The Company adjusts EBITDA for share-based compensation because the Company considers share-based compensation to be a non-cash expense similar to depreciation and amortization. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found attached to this release.

Forward-looking statements are any statements other than statements of historical fact. Forward-looking statements represent current views about possible future events and are often identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as "may", "will", "could", "expect", "intend", "estimate", "anticipate", "believe", "project”, "plan”, "predict”, "design" or "continue", or the negative thereof, or other similar words. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. In the event that one or more of such risks or uncertainties materialize, or one or more underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Important factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: the adverse effects of current economic conditions on our business, operations, financial condition, results of operations and capital resources, difficulties or delays in manufacturing or delivery of inventory or other supply chain disruptions, inflation and the Russia/Ukraine and Middle East conflicts, an inability of our customers to make payments on time or at all, diversion of management attention, a possible future reduction in the value of goodwill or other intangible assets, inadequate manufacturing capacity or a shortfall or excess of inventory as a result of difficulty in predicting manufacturing requirements due to volatile economic conditions, price increases or decreased availability of component parts or raw materials, exchange rate fluctuations, volatility of and decreases in trading prices of our common stock and the availability of needed financing on acceptable terms or at all; our ability to successfully develop new products that garner customer acceptance and generate sales, both domestically and internationally, in the face of substantial competition; our reliance on an unrelated third party to develop, maintain and host certain web-based food service application software and develop and maintain selected components of our downloadable software applications pursuant to a non-exclusive license agreement, and the risk that interruptions in our relationship with that third party could materially impair our ability to provide services to our food service technology customers on a timely basis or at all and could require substantial expenditures to find or develop alternative software products; our ability to successfully grow our business in the food service technology market; risks associated with the pursuit of strategic initiatives and business growth; general economic conditions; our dependence on contract manufacturers for the assembly of a large portion of our products in Asia; our dependence on significant suppliers; our ability to recruit and retain quality employees; our dependence on third parties for sales outside the United States; marketplace acceptance of new products; risks associated with foreign operations; the availability of third-party components at reasonable prices; price wars, supply chain disruptions or other significant pricing pressures affecting the Company’s products in the United States or abroad; increased product costs or reduced customer demand for our products due to changes in U.S. policy that may result in trade wars or tariffs; our ability to protect intellectual property; and other risk factors identified and discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this release.
