Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

 

Revenues

 

Revenues of Kornit Digital Ltd. (“Kornit” “we,” “us” or “our”) decreased by $6.4 million, or 4.3%, to $141.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $147.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021, which is net of $12.5 million and $9.7 million, in the fair value of warrants associated with revenues recognized from Amazon, respectively. Systems revenues decreased 12.4% to $78.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $89.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021, as offset in part by a 20.3% increase in service revenues to $21.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $17.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021, and an increase of 2.7% in ink revenues to $41.9 million from $40.8 million in six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in systems revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 reflected the impact of lower DTG systems revenues, mainly in the Americas region, due in part to an overall recalibration of e-commerce growth, macroeconomic headwinds, and delays in completion of customer production facilities.

 

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit

  

Cost of revenues increased by $8.7 million, or 11.0%, to $87.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $78.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021. Gross profit decreased by $15.1 million, or 21.8%, to $53.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $69.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021. Gross margin decreased to 38.1% in the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 46.7% in the six months ended June 30, 2021, The year-over-year decrease in gross margin was driven by materially lower systems revenues, mainly in the Americas region. Inventory write-offs amounted to $2.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $2.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Research and Development, net. Research and development net expenses increased by 46.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was mainly attributable to $5.9 million in salaries and related personnel expenses and share-based compensation due to an increase in the number of employees. In addition, depreciation expenses increased by $1.2 million due to an increase in the number of our systems utilized for research and development activities, while expenses related to facilities increased by $1.5, which corresponded with the increase in the number of employees during the six month period ended June 30, 2022 relative to the corresponding period of 2021. As a percentage of total revenues, our research and development expenses increased from 13.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2021 to 19.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

 

Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased by 51.4% in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily due to $5.4 million in salaries and related personnel expenses and share-based compensation expenses due to a higher number of employees and an increase in variable compensation payout during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. In addition, the increase reflected $5.2 million in marketing activities and $1.2 million in travel expenses (as COVID-19 travel restrictions were gradually lifted in the first half of 2022 relative to the first half of 2021). As a percentage of total revenues, our sales and marketing expenses increased during this period, from 16.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2021 to 26.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

 

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased by 27.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. This primarily resulted from: (i) an increase of $2.7 million in salaries, related personnel expenses and share-based compensation expenses, mainly due to our employment of additional personnel during the first six months of 2022, as well (ii) an increase of $0.8 million in expenses related to consulting services, and (iii) an increase of $0.4 million in travel expenses (as COVID-19 travel restrictions were gradually lifted in the first half of 2022 relative to the first half of 2021). As a percentage of total revenues, our general and administrative expenses increased from 10.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2021 to 14.1% in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Financial income, net

 

Finance income, net totaled $6.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $2.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021. The $3.7 million increase in finance income in the first half of 2022 relative to the corresponding period in 2021, mainly resulted from $2.5 million related to interest on marketable securities and bank deposits and $1.0 million in currency exchange gains.

 

Taxes on Income

 

Our tax benefits amounted to $1.0 million, in the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to tax expenses of $0.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021. The change from tax expenses to tax benefits was mainly derived from the increase of deferred tax assets related to carry-forward losses.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2022, we had approximately $196.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, $260.1 million in short term deposits and $247.9 million in short-term and long-term marketable securities, which, in the aggregate, totaled $704.6 million. We fund our operations mostly with cash raised via our equity financings, including our January 2017, June 2019, and September 2021 follow-on offerings, as well as income from operations (for periods when we realize operating income).

 

As of June 30, 2022, we had a line of credit with an Israeli bank for total borrowings of up to 6.0 million New Israeli Shekels. This line of credit is unsecured and available provided that (i) we maintain a 30% ratio of total tangible shareholders' equity to total tangible assets and (ii) the total credit use is less than 70% of our receivables. Interest rates on this credit line varied from (a) 0.3% to (b) Prime (Israel Interbank Offered Rate) plus 0.7% (2.95% as of June 30, 2022).

 

Based on our current business plans, we believe that our cash flows from operating activities (when our operations are cash-flow positive) and our existing cash resources will be sufficient to fund our projected cash requirements for at least the next 12 months without drawing on our lines of credit or using cash on hand. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending to support product development efforts, the expansion of our sales and marketing activities, and the timing of introductions of new solutions and the continuing market acceptance of our solutions as well as other business development efforts.
