Polar Power Reports Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Swing to Quarterly Profit Led by Higher Net Sales
GARDENA, CA – August 14, 2024 – Polar Power, Inc. (“Polar Power” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: POLA), a global provider of prime, backup, and solar hybrid DC power solutions, reports its financial results for the second quarter of 2024.
Q2 2024 Financial Highlights
● | Net sales were $4.6 million, a sequential improvement of 163% compared to $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2024, and compared to $5.6 million in the same period in 2023 |
● | The company’s gross margin improved to 39.3% compared to 26.4%, due in part to higher international sales |
● | Operating expenses were $1.4 million, slightly lower compared to $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2024, and compared to $1.8 million in the same period in 2023 |
● | Net income was $501,000, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $(436,000), or $(0.03) per basic and diluted share in the same period in 2023 |
● | Working capital of $10.1 million as of June 30, 2024, including $15.8 million in inventory |
● | Backlog at June 30, 2024 was $5.7 million, which includes $2.0 million in new bookings during the second quarter of 2024 |
Corporate Highlights:
● | Appointed Mike Field as new Director and Compensation Committee Chairman |
● | Received approximately $3.0 million in tax refunds and Employee Retention Credits applied for in prior years |
Arthur Sams, CEO of Polar Power, commented, “Our financial results in the second quarter are a welcome improvement over the first quarter of the year. We have seen a reversion to more normalized order levels from our top telco customers throughout the year, with more consistent bookings that started in the back half of 2023, leading to higher sales in the current quarter, and a backlog that remains above $5 million. A positive swing in the bottom line of approximately $2.6 million compared to the prior quarter resulted in a profit of roughly $500,000, which importantly marks our first profitable quarter in over two years.
“International sales represented approximately 20% of our second quarter revenues, highlighting a steady geographic diversification in our sales. Also, during the quarter, our gross margins improved due to utilization of inventory in products shipped to telecom customers, including both DC backup power systems and solar hybrid power systems to international customers in Asia and elsewhere. We believe increased revenues combined with utilization of inventory will provide improved profits as we continue to see market conditions improve in our core telecom market.”
“We also appointed a new director to our Board, Michael Field, and we welcome him to the team and look forward to benefitting from his sales, operational, and leadership experience,” concluded Mr. Sams.

Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, adverse domestic and foreign economic and market conditions, including demand for its Summit Series, 27 kW DC generator product line; trade tariffs on raw materials; changes in domestic and foreign governmental regulations and policies; the impact of inflation and changing prices on raw materials; supply chain constraints causing significant delays in sourcing raw materials; labor shortages as a result of the pandemic, low unemployment rates, or other factors limiting the availability of qualified workers; and other events, factors and risks.
