CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

The results for the first half of 2021 still bear the impact of COVID-19. However, there are strong signals that business is starting to revive, and we expect this trend to continue in the next few months.

Revenues in the first six months were similar to those in the equivalent period last year at $2.3m. These revenues comprised a more profitable product mix, with the legacy low margin product, the Helios, coming down to 48% of the hardware sales compared with 62% in 2020.

During the first half Starcom has managed to retain most of its recurrent customers. This is reflected in the SaaS revenues which marginally increased (by 3%), to $1.07 million.

The higher quality revenue mix enabled gross margin to increase to 40% compared with 33% in the same period last year. The improvement in the gross margin was achieved despite the dramatic increase in components and shipping costs imposed on the Company by the unfavourable global conditions.

The electrical components sphere suffered by not only lack of equipment, but extremely long lead times and an increased freight cost. Starcom managed this issue by adjusting its hardware bill of materials ("BOM") several times during the period.

Starcom also continues to monitor and reduce the level of general expenses.

Starcom took the opportunity during this challenging period to add technological strength and value to its products. We managed to add a new low-cost version for Helios to support its needs in certain geographical areas. This hardware solution is expected to create additional and more significant volumes of SaaS revenues in the next few years. We also released a new version of Kylos (called "Kylos E") with an extended battery life of ten years.

Marketing and business development efforts continued, and the pipeline of potential future deals is now at an all time high, although timing of conversions into revenues is still uncertain with some of these prospects. In particular, there has been increased interest and sales of our Lokies product from several sources.

Further to the previous announcement regarding the cooperation with DHL, we can now update that DHL's proof of concept ("POC"), intended to ascertain Lokies's fit for DHL's monitoring of its fleets operation, is expected to be completed in the next couple of months.

A major emergency service provider in Israel, United Hatzalah, has chosen our Helios Pro solution for the deployment of smart lifesaving technology. In partnership with Partner Telecommunication, Starcom is providing smart defibrillator cabinets that can be controlled and monitored by United Hatzalah operators and deployed in public areas for emergency response.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Revenues for the period were $2.27m, compared with $2.34m for six months ended 30 June 2020.

Recurring SaaS revenues improved to $1.07m (H1 2020 $1.04m).

The gross margin for the period was 40%, compared with 33% for the equivalent period in 2020.

Total operating expenditure decreased by 5% to $1.40m (H1 2020: $1.48m), achieved by continuous cost reduction in headcount and office expenses.

The Adjusted EBITDA loss was $167,000, as it was in the equivalent period in 2020 as the slight decrease in revenues was compensated for by the higher gross margin and the 12% reduction in G&A costs. Accordingly, the statutory loss for the period improved to $531,000 (H1 2020: $716,000).

The balance sheet showed a decrease in trade receivables to $0.7m, compared with $1.7m as at 30 June 2020.

Inventories at the period end were $2.0m, compared with $2.1m as of 31 December 2020.

Trade payables were $1.37m, compared with $1.58m as of 31 December 2020.

Net cash generated in operating activities in the period was $0.2m compared with $0.4m consumed in the period ended 31 December 2020. Cash and cash equivalents at 30 June 2021 was $0.3m.

OUTLOOK

While uncertainty continues, the strong pipeline of potential new deals we have developed in recent months with both existing and new customers give us confidence that Starcom can deliver considerable improvement in results in the second half of this year and beyond. The pandemic has had a significant impact on the Company, but we have managed to stabilise the situation, secure finance and government support, and are ready to leverage our technological advantages. We believe that as global logistics become even more challenging and freight costs spiral up, the security and control that Starcom's solutions provide in the supply chain become more important and increasingly valuable.

NOTE 10-	SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE REPORTED PERIOD (COVID-19)
	Due to the pandemic outbreak since March 2020, most of the countries across the globe have taken extra measures to prevent and reduce COVID-19 exposure. Among the actions taken were noted: citizens transport limitations, closing of borders, shutting some business activity, limitation of number of employees per square feet, shutting the education systems, etc. The unprecedented conditions resulted in a decrease in revenues for the period. In addition, normal purchasing processes and difficult shipping limitations created additional costs and delays which impacted the fulfilment of some existing orders. Marketing activities were inevitably disrupted The Group submitted applications and secured both government supported loan for long term amounted $315 thousand and grants amounted $300 thousands. The continuing cases of COVID-19 and the developments surrounding the pandemic have had a negative impact on the Group's business. Significant events affecting the overall economy have historically had an impact on revenue volumes, with the full extent of the impact generally determined by the length of time the event influences decisions as well as general economic conditions. The COVID-19 outbreak and resulting economic conditions have had, and the Group believes will continue to have, an adverse impact on its operations and on its financial results and liquidity, and such negative impact may continue well beyond the containment of the outbreak. The Group has taken, and plans to take further actions to manage its liquidity, including reducing operating expenses and strict cash flow monitoring, due to its uncertainty to assure its assumptions used to estimate its liquidity requirements will be correct because it has never previously experienced such a change in demand, and as a consequence, its ability to be predictive is uncertain. In addition, the duration of the pandemic is uncertain. However, based on current operational assumptions, the Group believes it has adequate liquidity beyond the next twelve months.
