Management Comment
Dov Sella, RADA's Chief Executive Officer commented, "We are exceptionally pleased with our performance in 2019, growing our top line by 58% to an all-time record of $44.3 million. Furthermore, even while making the significant investments in our infrastructure and in establishing a new production line and a presence in the United States, our EBITDA was positive in the second half of the year."
Continued Mr. Sella, "Our strong order momentum since mid-2019, which continued into this year, has increased our confidence that we will exceed revenues of $65 million in 2020. We expect that throughout 2020, we will grow our top line sequentially each quarter and reach profitability during the year. Our growth will be driven primarily by the growth in sales of tactical radars, with strong contribution from both the US and global markets. Furthermore, as the current programs to which we are supplying our radars mature, we expect the growth trend of our revenues to continue into 2021."
