RICHARDSON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / August 11, 2020 / Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. OPXS, a leading manufacturer of precision optical sighting systems for domestic and worldwide military and commercial applications, announced financial highlights for its third quarter of the 2020 fiscal year, which ended June 28, 2020.
Our three- and nine-month period ending June 28, 2020 revenue increased over our prior year three- and nine-month period by 9.4% and 1.9%, respectively. We anticipate higher revenue during the final quarter of the fiscal year with two first article acceptance tests approved during the current year for ICWS periscopes and CWSS sighting systems. We continue shipping against our prior year ICWS periscope contract through the fourth quarter and will begin shipments against two sighting system contracts during the next three months. Gross margin, operating income and adjusted EBITDA increased significantly during the current year three-month period as compared to the prior year period on higher revenue, changes in revenue mix and favorable adjustments on metal reclamation on our Applied Optics Center day window program. Gross margin for the current year nine-month period increased slightly on higher revenue, whereas, operating income and adjusted EBITDA decreased slightly during the nine months as compared to the prior year due to increases in current year general and administrative costs.
Danny Schoening, CEO of Optex Systems Holdings, Inc., commented, "While some shipments moved from Q3 into Q4 due to Covid-19 supply chain issues and delayed government approvals, we're pleased with the path we're on and continue to see year over year revenue growth. Cash generation is strong which funds our current stock repurchase program and creates an extremely strong balance sheet during these unusual times. Finally, we believe that the government's procurement arm is working through the issues caused by Covid-19 in their solicitation process and we will see increased backlog in the next several months."
Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. is defined as essential critical infrastructure as a defense contractor under the guidance of the federal, state and local authorities for both our Optex Systems (Richardson, TX), and Applied Optics Center (Dallas, TX) operating segments. As such, the Company continues to remain open during the COVID-19 shelter in place orders and closures. To date, we have experienced minimal disruption as a result of the pandemic, with some contract delivery delays related to supplier COVID-19 impacts as well as quality issues. While we anticipate the possibility of some unforeseen operational impacts during the next six to twelve months related to travel restrictions, illness, or interruptions with our customer or supply chain, we believe we are in a strong position to mitigate any significant adverse financial impacts to the current fiscal year ending September 27, 2020.
Our key performance measures for the three and nine months ended June 28, 2020 and June 30, 2019 are summarized below.

Backlog as of June 28, 2020, was $20.0 million as compared to a backlog of $24.6 million as of September 29, 2019, representing a decrease of $4.6 million or 18.7%. During the nine months ended June 28, 2020, the Company booked $14.0 million in new orders as compared to $21.4 million in the prior year period. We attribute the $7.4 million decrease in orders to the timing of contract awards, IDIQ task order releases and purchase orders from our customers. We believe the COVID-19 pandemic is a driving factor in lower contract awards since March 2020 as many customers and agencies adapt to remote work arrangements, limited travel and slower Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) and Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) responses to solicitations, price audits and contract awards. On August 3, 2020, the Company announced a $2.0 Million order from a U. S. prime contractor for optical subassemblies for shipments starting in 2021. We do not expect COVID-19 to have a material effect to the demand for the company's products or services over the next twelve months, however we remain cautious that a long-term pandemic could impact Congressional Budgets and future defense spending as the U.S. government seeks to mitigate the public health crisis and fund COVID-19 economic recovery efforts.

We use adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, gains/losses on changes in fair values, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) as an additional measure for evaluating the performance of our business as "net income" includes the significant impact of non-cash valuation gains and losses on warrant liabilities, noncash compensation expenses related to equity stock issuances, as well as depreciation, amortization, interest expenses and federal income taxes. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful indicator of our operating performance because it permits period-over-period comparisons of our ongoing core operations before certain excluded items. Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure not required by, or presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").
The table below summarizes our three-month operating results for periods ended June 28, 2020 and June 30, 2019, in terms of both the GAAP net income measure and the non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA measure. We believe that including both measures provides measures that are useful in evaluating our financial results across periods.
