Kornit Digital reports fourth quarter and full year 2023 results

Kornit Digital Ltd. (“Kornit” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: KRNT), a worldwide market leader in sustainable, on-demand, digital fashionX and textile production technologies, reported today its results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.

Fourth quarter revenues of $56.6 million, in line with previous guidance
Fourth quarter GAAP net loss of $22.9 million; non-GAAP net income of $3.8 millio
Achieved breakeven adjusted EBITDA and generated positive operating cash flow for the fourth quarter
Successfully launched the Apollo platform for general commercial use in early 2024
Expecting modest revenue growth, adjusted EBITDA profitability, and positive operating cash flow for the full year 2024

“We experienced a healthy peak season, with year-over-year growth in impressions and double-digit growth in high-margin consumable sales.” said Ronen Samuel, Kornit’s Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Samuel continued, “This growth, combined with improvements to our operating efficiency and working capital position, drove us to positive adjusted EBITDA and cash from operations in the fourth quarter.”

Mr. Samuel concluded, “Despite a challenging operating environment in 2023, we made progress in further diversifying our customer base, established our MAX technology as the new industry standard, and completed a successful beta program for the Apollo. As we enter 2024, while we continue to anticipate macroeconomics headwinds to weigh on our sales cycle, we are focused on leveraging our key drivers to achieve modest revenue growth for the full year. In the first quarter we have taken further actions to restructure and realign our operating expenses with the current market environment. This puts us on solid footing to generate adjusted EBITDA profitability and positive operating cash flow for the full year.”
