- Launched three new products in defense in the third and fourth quarter of 2023
- Launched one new product in high precision biomedical optics in Quarter 4 2023

The calendar year 2023 was marked by record-high Net Sales and growth within a new end-market – Communications, while effectively managing the technical challenges of multiple product launches across various lines of capability. Syntec Optics leveraged a robust platform and continued to innovate, offering products for existing markets with existing customers using existing capabilities. Space Optics reached higher production levels. Next, high-precision biomedical mirrors achieve ramp, and low-weight hybrid optics used in night vision goggle systems are finalizing volume production OEM acceptances. Production ramp happens after the product comes off a higher volume line, meets customer specifications, and is integrated into the end product by the customer for final OEM acceptance. Even though some new products meet customer specifications, the OEM end-customer may introduce new parameters, extending the production ramp time.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Financial and Operating Results
Fourth quarter 2023 Net Sales were $8.3 million, increased from $7.1 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. Full year 2023 Net sales increased by $1.6 million to $29.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $27.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 with the higher production line running for space optics.

The Company ended the fourth quarter of 2023 with $2.2 million in cash and $8.9 million in debt. Syntec Optics retains financial flexibility with access to an unused $4.4 million effective line of credit and a $5.0 million equipment line of credit.
First Quarter 2024 Financial and Operating Results
First quarter 2024 Net Sales were $6.3 million, decreased from $6.9 million compared to the first quarter of 2023. This decrease was primarily due to a delay in receiving nearly $2.3 million orders spread across the biomedical, consumer, and defense end markets, offset by an increase of $1.7 million in the communications end market over the prior year, 2023.
First quarter 2024 Adjusted EBITDA was negative $0.7 million, compared to $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2023. Contributing factors included 2024 trade show expenses, 2023-year-end audit expenses, and development costs of new products.

Full year 2023 earnings per share rises over 2022. Several new products were launched in 2023. Space optics achieved production ramp. In the First Quarter of 2024, the new product telecom microlens array advanced to the production ramp, the new biomedical mirrors approach the production ramp, and a new high-volume biomedical disposable optics product development was launched.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company provides non-GAAP financial measures including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a supplement to GAAP financial information to enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s financial performance and to assist investors in evaluating the Company’s results of operations, period over period. Adjusted non-GAAP measures exclude significant unusual items. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures as a supplement to, and not a substitute for financial information prepared on a GAAP basis.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This Annual Report includes a non-GAAP measure that the Company uses to supplement our results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest and other income, tax and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA adjusted for non-recurring items, and business combination expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure that we believe is useful to investors and analysts because it illustrates the underlying financial and business trends relating to our core, recurring results of operations and enhances comparability between periods.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measure under U.S. GAAP and is not intended to be a substitute for any U.S. GAAP financial measure and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry. Investors should exercise caution in comparing our non-GAAP measure to any similarly titled measure used by other companies. This non-GAAP measure excludes certain items required by U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to information reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA
The Company defines adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net earnings (loss) before interest and other expenses, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to exclude non-recurring items as outlined in our 10-K and 10-Q. The Company utilizes adjusted EBITDA as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe the exclusion of these non-cash and non-recurring charges allow for a more relevant comparison of our results of operations to other companies in our industry and is in accordance with the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Compliance & Disclosure Interpretations (Reference Question 102.03).
