· Revenue in the third quarter of 2022 decreased 17% from the same quarter last year, with lower shipments of our custom products to customers in the industrial and consumer markets and lower shipments of our standard products, offset by higher shipments to customers in the medical market. This decline was partly due to an industrial market customer’s request to delay shipment on approximately $0.1 million of product to a future quarter. Revenue for the 2022 year-to-date period increased 1% from last year, driven by higher demand of our custom products in the industrial and medical markets, offset by lower orders from our consumer market customers, in particular the loss of a consumer market customer program that had contributed revenue of approximately $1.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in shipments to our medical market customers reflects the easing of pandemic restrictions that previously delayed installations of our products in hospitals and medical offices. Fluctuations in shipments of our products to our industrial and consumer market customers are due to variability in timing of order fulfillment resulting from changes in demand levels on corresponding products and programs.

· Gross margin decreased to 47.1% in the current quarter from 58.1% in the year-ago quarter, and to 52.1% for the current year-to-date period from 56.2% in the prior year-to-date period. The decreases in gross margin were primarily due to higher materials and components costs on certain orders (as impacted by the global chip shortage, which we expect will impact our gross margins through 2023), fluctuations in production efficiencies in our manufacturing operations, and changes in customer and product mix.

· Income/loss from operations was a loss of $190 thousand for the third quarter of 2022, compared with income of $259 thousand in the third quarter of 2021. Income/loss from operations was a loss of $323 thousand for the year-to-date period of the current year, compared with income of $332 thousand in the year-to-date period of 2021. Operating income/loss in both periods in 2022 was impacted by lower gross profit and higher engineering expenses in the current year due to additional employee headcount and increased costs on prototyping and development activities, and lower engineering expenses in the prior year due to receipt of an incentive research grant from the Singapore government. The 2021 year-to-date period also reflects lower selling, general and administrative expenses due to inclusion of a $186 thousand benefit from forgiveness of the PPP loan obtained in 2020.

· The Company’s net income of $6 thousand in the third quarter of 2022 and $260 thousand in the 2022 year-to-date period benefited from gains on marketable securities of $181 thousand and $562 thousand, respectively. The Company did not own any marketable securities in the prior year periods.

· Interlink ended the quarter with $3.9 million of cash and cash equivalents and $6.6 million of marketable securities.

“We have invested heavily in executive talent during fiscal 2022 in order to create the foundation from which Interlink can continue to grow,” said Steven N. Bronson, Chairman, President, and CEO of Interlink Electronics. “These investments, while depressing short term earnings, help create an inflection point for Interlink in terms of growth and profitability which we believe will increase the long-term earnings power of the company.”
