Management Commentary
"In the third quarter of 2019, we saw much of our work from prior quarters come to fruition as we achieved the second most successful quarter in our company's history in terms of recognized revenue and our best third quarter to date," said Bob Ferris, Chairman and CEO of VirTra. "Financially, the quarter was highlighted by $6.7 million revenue, $937,000 in net income, $1.4 million in adjusted EBITDA, and a record backlog of $11.3 million. When combined with the results of the prior few quarters, Q3 highlights the importance of continuing to evaluate our business on an annual rather than a quarterly basis.
"The results of the third quarter were in large part driven by the operational progress we've made throughout the year, including launching upgraded recoil kits, introducing driving simulators, developing new certified curriculum, and bolstering our competitive moat with new patents, all of which have led to increasing VirTra's status in the market as the most trusted name for effective simulation training. Given our ability to add to our pipeline while fulfilling orders, we are cautiously optimistic that we will be able to continue this momentum for the rest of the year and enter 2020 from a position of strength."
Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results
Total revenue increased by 89% to $6.7 million from $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2018. The increase in total revenue was due to an increase in the number of simulators and accessories completed and delivered and revenue recognized compared to the same period in 2018.
Gross profit increased 80% to $3.8 million (55.9% of total revenue) from $2.1 million (58.8% of total revenue) in the third quarter of 2018. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to differences in the product mix and the varying quantity of systems, accessories, and services sold.
Net operating expense was $2.5 million compared to $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2018. The increase in net operating expense was due to an increase in selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expense, costs for labor, benefits, professional services, sales and marketing expense, and research and development expense.
Income from operations was $1.2 million compared to income from operations of $80,000 in the third quarter of 2018.
Net income totaled $937,000, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared to net income of $61,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $1.4 million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $174,000 in the same period a year-ago.
As of September 30, 2019, cash and cash equivalents and certificates of deposit totaled $5.3 million compared to $3.3 million at the end of the prior quarter. At the end of the quarter, the company had working capital of $6.4 million and no debt.
Financial Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019
Total revenue was $12.8 million compared to $15.5 million in the first nine months of 2018. The decrease in total revenue was due primarily to the delivery of a large, one-time $4.4 million simulator and accessories order in 2018 that helped equip the police force of Pakistan.
Gross profit was $7.1 million (55.2% of total revenue) compared to $10.1 million (64.9% of total revenue) in the first nine months of 2018. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to differences in the product mix and the varying quantity of systems, accessories, and services sold.
Net operating expense was $7.2 million, which is consistent with the first nine months of 2018.
Loss from operations was $94,000 compared to income from operations of $2.9 million in the first nine months of 2018.
Net loss totaled $10,000, or $(0.00) per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.1 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, in the comparable period a year ago.
Adjusted EBITDA was $339,000 compared to adjusted EBITDA of $3.3 million in the first nine months of 2018.
Deferred revenue totaled $4.6 million as of September 30, 2019, compared to $2.7 million as of September 30, 2018. The current portion of deferred revenue was $3.0 million as of September 30, 2019, compared to $1.9 million as of September 30, 2018. The increase in deferred revenue was primarily due to customer deposits received on new orders, new service agreements, and new STEP agreements received.

About the Presentation of Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and before other non-operating costs and income ("Adjusted EBITDA") is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA also includes non-cash stock option expense and other than temporary impairment loss on investments. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently. VirTra calculates its Adjusted EBITDA to eliminate the impact of certain items it does not consider to be indicative of its performance and its ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA is presented herein because management believes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to VirTra's investors regarding VirTra's financial condition and results of operations and because Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in VirTra's industry, several of which present a form of Adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of VirTra's results as reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative for net income, cash flows from operating activities and other consolidated income or cash flows statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. A reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the following table:
