Press Release

Eltek Reports 2016 First Quarter Financial Results

· Revenues of $9.8 million in the first Quarter of 2016

· 17% growth in sales to the North American market

· Gross profit of $938,000

PETACH-TIKVA, Israel, May 18, 2016 - Eltek Ltd. (NASDAQ: ELTK ), a global manufacturer and supplier of technologically advanced solutions in the field of Printed Circuit Boards, announced today its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2016.

Mr. Yitzhak Nissan , Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer , commented: “Our revenues in the first quarter of 2016 were slightly higher than our revenues in the first quarter of last year. During the first quarter we continued to increase our efforts to penetrate global markets, especially the North American market. These marketing activities resulted in $1.8 million of sales in North America, an increase of 17% as compared to the first quarter of 2015. Our total sales to global markets were $5 million, an 8% increase over the first quarter of 2015, and accounted for 51% of our revenues in the first quarter of 2016, compared to 48% of revenues in the first quarter of 2015.

"Our growth strategy and continued marketing efforts in global markets are proving themselves in light of the current competitive pressure in Israel, that has affected our results in the first quarter of 2016. Also, our technological advantages in producing cutting edge PCBs and advanced solutions enabled us to win more projects and sell more products to the Israeli market in the first quarter as compared to the first quarter of last year," Mr. Nissan concluded.

Highlights of the First Quarter of 2016 compared to the First Quarter of 2015

· Revenues for the first quarter of 2016 were $9.8 million, compared to $9.7 million in the first quarter of 2015. Sales to global markets increased by 8% compared to the first quarter of 2015 and amounted to $5.0 million, including $1.8 million to the North American market, a 17% growth. This was offset by a 6% decrease in sales to the local Israeli market, which amounted to $4.8 million in the first quarter of 2016.

· Gross profit was $938,000 (9.6% of revenues) compared to a gross profit of $1.2 million (12.6% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2015. The decrease in gross profit and gross margins reflects the pricing challenges we faced in this quarter. The slightly increased level of revenues in the first quarter of 2016 was the result of the sale of more products at lower prices. Accordingly, manufacturing costs in the first quarter of 2016 were higher than in the parallel quarter in 2015.

· Operating loss was $293,000 compared to an operating loss of $108,000 in the first quarter of 2015;

· Net loss was $384,000, or $0.04 per fully diluted share, compared to a net loss of $234,000 or $0.02 per fully diluted share in the first quarter of 2015;

· EBITDA amounted to $167,000 (1.7% of revenues) compared to EBITDA of $316,000 (3.2% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2015;

· Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $890,000, compared to net cash used by operating activities of $171,000 in the first quarter of 2015; mainly due to a decrease in working capital requirements.

· The Company’s total equity as of March 31, 2016 amounted to $10.3 million, compared to $10.3 million as of December 31, 2015;

· Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2016 were $938,000, compared to $1.0 million as of December 31, 2015.
