Mr. Igal Zamir, CEO and President of TAT Technologies stated, "The commercial aviation industry suffered greatly from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. During Q2 of 2020 we suffered from a decline in our revenues compared to Q2 2019, mainly due to decline in demand in our commercial MRO business. Other operations of the Company, such as military, OEM and cargo, remain stable.

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased global economic and demand uncertainty, and has impacted TAT's businesses, operations and the aerospace sector as a whole. In response, the company has taken immediate actions to conserve cash and reduce costs. The financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. TAT will continue to consider and proactively implement cost and working capital efficiencies so that TAT can respond to these uncertain market conditions."

On a positive note, during Q2 2020, TAT managed to improve its cash flow from operations (cash flow from operations were $6.3M in Q2 2020 and $7.5M in H1 2020), and also secured new credit lines from banks that may be used by the Company in the near future to finance new investments opportunities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company also presents Adjusted EBITDA. The adjustments to the Company's GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of the Company's underlying operational results, trends and performance. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income excluding the impact of: the Company's share in results of affiliated companies, share-based compensation, taxes on income, discontinued operation, financial (expenses) income, net, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, however, should not be considered as alternative to net income and operating income for the period and may not be indicative of the historic operating results of the Company; nor it is meant to be predictive of potential future results. Adjusted EBITDA is not measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies. See reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA in pages 13 below.
