B.O.S. Better Online Solutions

Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining us today. My name is Claude, and I will be leading today's presentation. Following the prepared remarks, Eyal Cohen, Chief Executive Officer, and Moshe Zeltser, Chief Financial Officer, will be available to take your questions. Before we begin, a brief reminder that this call contains forward-looking statements relating to BOS business, financial condition, and results of operations. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. Such statements include, but are not limited to, matters relating to product demand, pricing, market acceptance, economic conditions, and technology development, as further detailed in the company's filings with the various securities authorities. With that said, let's get started. BOS is a company built around one idea, that supply chains can be smarter, faster, and more efficient, and that the right technology makes that possible. We pursue that idea through three specialized divisions. Our robotics division replaces manual labor with automated solutions, transforming how inventory is handled. Our RFID division brings precision to tracking and end-of-line automation, from sorting to packing, across the entire supply chain. And our supply chain division works even closer to our clients, integrating our franchised electromechanical components directly into their product. Together, these three divisions give BOS a broad and complementary platform, one that allows us to serve clients across multiple touchpoints in their operations. How we grow. Now, when we talk about growth at BOS, we think about it in two ways. Organic growth, building on what we have, and strategic acquisitions that expand our reach. Over the past four years, the story has been primarily organic, and the numbers speak for themselves. Revenue grew from $33.6 million in 2021 to $51 million in 2025. That is meaningful, sustained growth, built on real demand from real clients. And we believe that demand is only accelerating. Three tailwinds in particular give us confidence. The first is the global increase in defense budgets. This is not a short-term cycle. It is a structural, long-term shift in how governments around the world are prioritizing security. BOSS is well positioned to benefit from this trend for years to come. The second is closer to home. The replenishment and expansion of the Israeli Defense Forces' inventory, driven by the conflict that began in October 2023, has created significant and ongoing demand that directly supports our business. The third is newer and very promising. India is rapidly emerging as a major subcontracting hub for global defense programs, and the numbers are already telling that story. In the first quarter of 2026 alone, we received $3.3 million in orders from Indian customers, compared to just $172,000 in the same quarter last year. To capture this momentum and build on it, we appointed an Indian representative company in March 2026 to establish a dedicated presence in that market. We are only at the beginning of what we believe is a significant long-term opportunity. Alongside organic growth, we are actively building our acquisition pipeline, and we have the financial strength to act on it. Our balance sheet is solid. Shareholders' equity stands at $29 million, and we hold $9.5 million in cash net of loans. That gives us real flexibility. We are targeting companies valued at up to 20%. First, financial strength, a proven track record of profitability and consistent growth. Second, strategic fit, companies that deepen and expand what we can offer to our existing clients. On the financing side, approximately half of each acquisition will be funded through long-term bank loans, with the remainder coming from our own resources. I want to be clear on one point. No shareholder dilution is expected. Let me now turn to where we stand heading into the rest of 2026, and the picture is an encouraging one. When you combine our backlog of $31 million as of March 31st, 2026, with Q1 revenues, we are already at $42.4 million, 83% of our full-year target after just one quarter. As a result, we now expect to exceed our previously announced annual revenue target, The depreciation of the U.S. dollar against the new Israeli shekel is creating pressure on our profitability, and as a result, we are maintaining our net income target of $3.6 million for the full year at this stage. We are responding on two fronts, accelerating revenue growth and actively working to improve our gross profit margins. Both of these efforts are already showing up in our Q1 results. Our gross profit margin reached 24.9%, up from 23.9% in the same quarter last year, and our backlog grew 29% during the first quarter, from $24 million to $31 million. As we monitor the progress of these initiatives, we will reassess our net income outlook for the full year and update accordingly. I want to close with something that we believe deserves your attention. BOS is a company with a growing backlog, accelerating revenues, a clean balance sheet, and exposure to some of the strongest structural trends in the global economy. Defense spending, automation, and supply chain modernization. And yet, BOS currently trades at book value. The Russell 2000 the index of small cap companies we are measured against, trades at approximately 2.6 times book value. Our price to earnings ratio stands at roughly 11 times, compared to 22 times for the index. We believe this gap exists primarily because not enough investors know our story yet. That is what we are working to change, and calls like this one are part of that effort. Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes the prepared remarks. We will now open the floor for questions. Eil Cohen and Moshe Zeltser are ready to take your questions. Please unmute yourself to begin.

Okay, I hope you enjoyed our new presentation format. My only concern about this English on this voice Much better than my voice in English and yours as well. So, let's open the floor for discussion. Ready to take your questions.

Good morning, Al. This is Todd Felty. Good morning, Moshe. Just wanted to ask on the devaluation of the dollar with the NIS, are you doing anything to hedge or compensate on that aspect?

Yes, I think the most efficient way to handle this long-term trend, I believe, of strong checking is to increase the efficiency of the business because any hedging, any kind of hedging has a limited period. Although we are doing hedging on the balance sheet, not on the P&L, because we are doing hedging on the balance sheet we see the fluctuation in the currency differences in the financial expenses or income. But for the long term, we have to increase the efficiency of the business. And we are doing it based on two pillars. The first one is to increase the sales price. Even though it's quoted in dollar, but to increase the gross profit margin to compensate our operational expenses, which are quoted in this. So this is the first one. The second one is to grow our business. And as we show, our backlog is in this trend. In this trend, we saw a 30% growth in the first quarter in the backlog. And we also saw a growth in the gross profit margin by one point from 33%. 33.9% to 24.9%. So we are in the right direction. On top of that, on top of that, we plan to, we are working on acquisitions, on good acquisitions, or as Trump says, beautiful acquisitions. So a beautiful acquisition based on the criteria we just illustrated in the video is solid history of profits and high synergy. And this is the long-term solution for the devaluation of the tool.

Okay, thank you. That's helpful. I know your components are used a lot in the aero and iron dome systems as well as missiles and fighter jets. Are any of your components used in drones which seem to be kind of a weapon or defense tool of choice these days?

Not yet. We are on it. Hopefully we will find the right manufacturers to represent his product, to embed in our client's product. Hopefully, if we can.

And my final question, in the past you had spoke about the expansion of RFID to different sectors and that you were excited about the expansion of RFID to the healthcare sector. How is that progressing?

So first, we put a team in place with a difference to extend the RFID business to the district. As we announced, we hired a company, an external company, to escrow us through this very complicated process and to short the timeline of the success. So, we have him in place to penetrate to the difference, to expand the business of the LPAP to the difference. hospitals, we are part of the team in place, we have not signed yet. I have to gather together all the ingredients of the team and once it will be ready, I will sign the contract and start the penetration. I know exactly what kind of person, how the team should look like, what is his experience and once I will have it, we will start the Extension, I believe it will be this year. Thank you.

Hi, this is Kevin from AGP. So backlog, thanks for taking our questions, by the way. So backlog increased 29% sequentially to 31 million. Can you break down which of these divisions, which of your divisions contributed most to that growth?

The Most of the backlog is related to the supply chain division because it has long-term orders. So this is primarily Porsche.

Okay, thank you. And then what do you attribute some of the early success in the Indian market to?

The success that we saw in the first quarter regarding the amount of orders?

Yes.

I think it's a long... This is the initial yield of the work we did in the field we have done in the field in India by our Israeli team. And I believe once we have a local team in place in India, it will urge the process of participating in more bids with more clients to extend our client base there. So the result you saw in the first quarter was made by our local team in Israel.

Great. Thank you. Thank you. Hello, this is Igor Novgorodsov. I would like to ask you a few questions now. So first a comment. I think it's actually a very good quarter, even in all the circumstances. I think there was a lot of investor caution, and you could see the new stock price giving you prior comments, so I think everybody feels that this was a positive result. My question is this. I'm looking at your RFID results, and I see that the profitability is still relatively low, Was it, first of all, impacted by the war and the situation with Hezbollah and the Persian Gulf and so on in this quarter, or was it something else, and how do you expect the RFID division to perform, hopefully assuming that the situation remained relatively quiet for the remainder of the year, or how the environment looks?

Thank you for the question. Regarding the RFID, in the first quarter during the month of March, The division worked partially, so it damaged the gross profit margin. We had a fixed cost with low revenues during the merge. Another effect on the gross profit margin was the devaluation of the dollar, because our cost of goods includes a lot of work all the lab team, all the warehouse team. So it increased the labor cost in dollars. But we are working, as I mentioned before, we are working to increase the cost-profit margin of the product we are selling. And I believe we will start to see this result in the second quarter of the year. So it will compensate on the devaluation of the dollar, and in the second quarter of the year, hopefully until now, there is no resumption of the conflict of the war. So it looks like we will be in a good shape in the second quarter related to the RFA data vision, and it will represent important results.

Thank you. My other question is, first of all, obviously, you have tremendous expansion in India and, obviously, very meaningful revenue from there. Do you think you can repeat it in many other countries? Because, obviously, the Israeli defense sector now is highly valued and has customers in many other countries, and do you think you can have meaningful revenues abroad from other countries than India?

Yeah, we have a connection with the two subcontractors in the U.S., and we got revenues from them during this year. I assume we announced during this year on two major contracts, and I believe that the revenue will continue to grow older. And we are checking now additional area in the east, where the local defense clients here in Israel does business over there, not just in India. There are many places in the Far East that, for example, IEA and LBIT has business over there, so we are tracking, we are following their tracks there, and hopefully we can duplicate the business model that we have in India to other territories. So there is a potential, yes.

And my last sort of question or comment, any thoughts of renaming your company? Because I think your name is rather now silly, given what you do has nothing to do, you know, better online solutions just really confuses a lot of people.

Yeah, it's a good question. Do you think, do you have a better name? I can come up with a few. I'm sure ChatGPT can, but it sounds like a late-nightest internet company. Okay, I know. We talk about it many times, but it's a lot of headache to change a name for a company. But I believe after several acquisitions that we'll do, we'll have to rebrand our business, so it will come.

Right. I think it would help to during the, especially if you go to Congress and do presentations, because I think a lot of people are dismissed of your business. They have no idea that you have anything to do with the finance industry and looking at your name. So it might be a great idea.

Okay. Okay. But if you have a good recommendation, send me. I'll send it. Okay.

Thank you. I don't have anything else to think about taking my questions.

Okay. Thank you. I think Scott is missing today. Any further questions? Okay, so on behalf of the board of directors on 9.20, thank you for participation in our Q1 2026 conference call in the new format. I hope you liked it. And if you need more details or would like to follow up, please feel free to reach out. Thank you. Have a great day.
