FEBRUARY 21, 2012
Preliminary Revenues of $20.5-21 million for the fourth quarter of 2011
MIGDAL HAEMEK, Israel – January 18, 2012– Camtek Ltd. (NASDAQ and TASE: CAMT), today announced it would be releasing its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2011 ended December 31, 2011 on Tuesday, February 21, 2012.
The company also announced that it expects to report revenues of $20.5-21million for the fourth quarter, representing an expected all time annual record of over $106 million, with year on year growth of over 21%. It is noted that these revenue numbers are preliminary and unaudited.
The fourth quarter revenue expectation is approximately 5% below the previously issued guidance range, due to a somewhat tougher than originally expected business environment during the fourth quarter. However, while it is still early in the first quarter of 2012, the company indicates that at this stage, the signs given by the market for the first half of 2012 show a slight improvement in the business environment.
The Company will host a conference call on February 21, starting at 10:00 am ET. Roy Porat, Chief Executive Officer and Moshe Eisenberg, Chief Financial Officer, will host the call and will be available to answer questions after presenting the results.
