In addition, our third quarter-adjusted EBITDA of $1.7 million is 15.6% higher than third quarter 2023. Our nine-month results remain strong on lower revenues.
"We continue to pay down our debt and reduced it by $2.7 million over the last twelve months. Our Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA Ratio was 2.5, which marks our seventh consecutive quarter-end below 3.0, while we generated $0.7 million of cash from operations during the third quarter 2024,” said Dorith Hakim, President and CEO.
Added Ms. Hakim, "We are also pleased to receive an award from L3Harris for the Next Generation Jammer Low Band Pod, our first from this Tier 1 defense contractor, adding to our backlog of $506 million as of September 30, 2024. This award continues our success of winning new development programs and demonstrates the confidence top tier companies have in CPI Aero.”
