The information in this press release is approximate due to the preliminary nature of the announcement and remains subject to normal quarter-end review.
“The overall recalibration of e-commerce growth, combined with macro headwinds that accelerated significantly in the last few weeks of the quarter, as well as delays in the completion of customer manufacturing facilities, resulted in a significantly slower pace of direct-to-order apparel (DTG) in the second quarter in compared to our previous expectations,” said Ronen Samuel, CEO of Kornit Digital.
Mr Samuel continued: “We have entered a period where some of our customers are running on excess capacity that was built up during the two-year pandemic period, which we expect to continue in the near future. At the same time, based on our focused research and development investments over the past several years, we are working with our customers and prospects on several significant growth initiatives, including new product introductions, upgrades and new applications that we believe will open up new addressable markets. and help drive increased demand in their businesses. We see significant opportunities post-pandemic with major brands and retailers shifting production from mass analog off-shore production to short-term near-shore production, and we believe Kornit is well-positioned to capitalize on these trends.”
Mr. Samuel concluded: “Kornit is an extremely strong company with a profitable business model, a strong balance sheet, intimate customer relationships and a dedicated global team of professionals. We believe the industry will continue its long-term secular growth and are confident in our ability to successfully manage this near-term volatility. We remain committed to profitable growth and will continue to lead the digital transformation of the industry. We look forward to providing additional updates on our second quarter results and operations at our next earnings conference call in August.”
