Guy Bernstein, Chief Executive Officer of Magic Software, said: "We are pleased to report strong results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2024, reflecting continued growth in Israel and stability in the U.S. market. Over the past year, we successfully navigated a dynamic business environment, adapting to market shifts through innovation and operational resilience. Our continued investment in cutting-edge digital and cloud transformation solutions has reinforced our position as a trusted partner for our clients. With a strengthening demand environment in the U.S. and a solid pipeline of opportunities, we are confident in our ability to sustain momentum and drive long-term profitability, delivering lasting value to our shareholders.”

 

“We are pleased to formally announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding for the commencement of a strategic business transaction involving the merger of Magic into Matrix I.T (TASE: MTRX), Israel’s leading IT Services company. This transaction, to the extent completed, constitutes a significant milestone in the history of both companies and represents a transformational event for the company. This Merger represents a transformative opportunity for both Magic and Matrix, creating a stronger and more diversified company, with enhanced capabilities to serve customers worldwide, drive innovation, and generate long-term value for shareholders. Magic remains committed to a seamless integration process, ensuring continued operational excellence and business continuity throughout the transition. The combined entity’s aggregate market value is expected to be $2.1 billion (approximately 7.7 billion ILS), a valuation that would place it among the largest publicly traded IT services companies in the U.S and in Europe.

 

Had the Companies already merged in 2024, the combined entity would have reported the following results in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board:

 

Revenues: $2.1 billion.

 

Gross profit: approximately $382 million (Gross margin: 18.6%).

 

Operating income: approximately $183 million (Operating margin: 8.9%).

 

Net income attributable to non-controlling interests: approximately $110.6 million (Net margin: 5.4%).

 

The combined entity is expected to operate in approximately 50 countries, serve around 6,000 active clients, and employ over 15,000 employees. We look forward to a promising future for the merged company, to the extent completed, and are excited to embark on this new chapter together."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

This press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income attributable to Magic Software’s shareholders and non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per share.

 

Magic Software believes that these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Magic Software’s financial condition and results of operations. Magic Software’s management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, for purposes of determining executive and senior management incentive compensation and for budgeting and planning purposes. These measures are used in financial reports prepared for management and in quarterly financial reports presented to the Company’s board of directors. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

 

Management of the Company does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures together with GAAP results. Magic Software urges investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, which it includes in press releases announcing quarterly financial results, including this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.

 

Non-GAAP measures used in this press release are included in the financial tables of this release. These non-GAAP measures exclude the following items:

 

  Amortization of purchased intangible assets and other related costs;

 

  In-process research and development capitalization and amortization;

 

  Cost of share-based payment;

 

  Costs related to acquisition of new businesses;

 

  The related tax, non-controlling interests’ effects of the above items;

 

  Change in valuation of contingent consideration related to acquisitions;

 

  Change in deferred tax assets on carry forward tax losses.

 

Reconciliation of the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are included in the financial tables of this release.
