Management Comment
David Mahlab, Pointer's Chief Executive Officer, commented: "We are extremely pleased with our record results for the quarter. We achieved strong revenue growth and increased margins with nearly 2/3 of our total revenues comprised of recurring service revenues. In addition to these financial achievements, we continued to execute our long term strategic objectives to strengthen our position as a leading provider of technology solutions in Fleet Management, Mobile Asset Management and the Internet of Vehicles. Our results demonstrate the success of our long-term strategy for growing our business, increasing profitability and building shareholder value."
Mr. Mahlab continued, "In the past months, we have made great progress on two strategically important deployments. We have successfully completed most of the installations with Femsa, the Coca-Cola bottling company in Mexico, and we have fully deployed our driving behavior solution integrated with Mobileye devices in a 5,000-car fleet in New York City. In addition, we recently announced a new long-term product supply agreement with a leading US-based telematics provider. This contract is the first substantial win for our new Nano CelloTrack technology. We believe this is the first of many other opportunities that we expect to capitalize on in the coming quarters."

Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and Non-GAAP basis
Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and Non-GAAP basis is provided in a table immediately following the Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Pointer uses EBITDA and Non-GAAP net income as Non-GAAP financial performance measurements.
Pointer calculates EBITDA by adding back to net income financial expenses, taxes, depreciation and amortization and impairment of goodwill and intangible assets.
Pointer calculates Non-GAAP net income by adding back to net income the effects of non-cash stock based compensation expenses, amortization and impairment of long lived assets, non-cash tax expenses, other expenses of retirement costs, spin-off related expenses and losses and acquisition related one-time costs.
The purpose of such adjustments is to give an indication of the Company's performance exclusive of Non-GAAP charges that are considered by management to be outside of the Company's core operating results.
EBITDA and non-GAAP net income are provided to investors to complement results provided in accordance with GAAP, as management believes the measure helps illustrate underlying operating trends in the Company's business and uses the measure to establish internal budgets and goals, manage the business and evaluate performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures help investors to understand the Company's current and future operating cash flow and performance, especially as the Company's acquisitions have resulted in amortization and non-cash items that have had a material impact on the Company's GAAP profits. EBITDA and non GAAP net income should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable measures calculated and should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may differ materially from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
