Full Year 2020 Operational Highlights
Management Commentary
Cemtrex’s Chairman and CEO, Saagar Govil, commented on the results: “2020 has been a milestone year for our company as we continued to innovate, grow and expand Cemtrex. Despite the challenges of a global pandemic, we increased revenues by 11% for the year, a testament to our team’s hard work and our focus on product development and strategic acquisition opportunities. We anticipate top line growth to continue in the coming year as our market returns to normal and customers reopen for business and resume purchasing.
“In our 2020 fiscal first quarter we made significant progress in restructuring our businesses for the future, improving both EBITDA and gross margins, and saw a return to generating an operating profit. In the second quarter, we continued to see improvement in our businesses despite the short-term effects of COVID-19. We remained focused on executing our development roadmap of high tech products in IoT, AR & VR, as well as in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Vision. We received new orders across all our business segments, including a 500% increase in new orders for development of AR/VR applications and $2 million in new orders in our Advanced Technologies segment.
“During our third quarter we received a major cash infusion of over $10 million from institutional investors which bolstered the balance sheet and fueled the Company for growth. With the financings completed, we have substantial cash to meet and accelerate the release of several exciting and innovative products we plan to deliver over the next twelve months. “Highlights from the fourth quarter included new contracts and upgraded products under our security technology brand, Vicon. This included a first of its kind order of its Thermal Body Temperature Measurement Cameras to assist in the detection and mitigation of COVID-19 risk at a major school district in the Pacific Northwest. Vicon also began offering an upgraded Thermal Sensor model for clients like airports and correctional facilities looking for cost-effective and comprehensive solutions to enhance their perimeter surveillance systems. During the fourth quarter we also expanded our commitment to the capital markets and to shareholders through enhanced investor relations initiatives with our new partner MZ Group.
“More recently, in our first quarter of 2021, we announced the next generation SmartDesk, the SmartDesk Connect. The product is an evolution of original patented SmartDesk, providing may of the same features but also allowing users to use their own laptop instead of a built-in PC. Finally, our strategic acquisitions efforts paid off with the completion of our acquisition of Virtual Driver Interactive, a training simulation technology company, to enhance our Augmented & Virtual Reality growth segment & VR Training product line. Our investment in MasterpieceVR further complemented this segment, allowing us to capture more upside as the VR market continues to accelerate.
“Throughout the year, we have striven to drive forward our business, achieving several key milestones in our internal roadmap with a focus on innovation and product development. 2020 was marked by our significant achievements across business segments, and our fortified our balance sheet. This is an exciting time for Cemtrex, and I believe we are well positioned to create sustainable value for our shareholders,” concluded Govil.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2020 Financial Results
Revenue for the full year of 2020 totaled $43.5 million, compared to revenue of $39.3 million for the full year of 2019, an 11% increase year over year. Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2020 were $10.7 million, compared to $10.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase in revenues for the year were due to sales increases in the Advanced Technology Segment, with segment revenues for the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 of $25.8 million and $19.3 million respectively, an increase of 34%. Industrial Services segment revenues for the full year 2020 decreased by 11%, to $17.8 million, primarily due to the decrease in demand for services due to the COVID-19 crisis. Gross profit for the full year of 2020 was $19.4 million, or 44% of revenues, of which the fourth quarter contributed $5.4 million. The Company’s 2020 gross margin increase was a result of the sale of products and services with higher profit margins.
Total operating expenses for 2020 were $23.4 million, of which $6.1 million were incurred in the fourth quarter. Total operating expenses for 2019 totaled $23.0 million. The increase in total operating expenses was primarily driven by increases in personnel costs, insurance and research and development, offset by savings measures enacted during the fiscal year.

ADQ Appoints Modon as Master Developer for Ras El Hekma Megaproject in Egypt
In the presence of Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Abdel Fattah El-Sisi
The event marked the signing of several significant agreements aimed at driving the development of the new destinationABU DHABI, UAE, Oct. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In the presence of President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, and His Excellency Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, President of the Arab Republic of Egypt, ADQ, an Abu Dhabi-based investment and holding company, appointed Modon Holding PSC as the master developer for the Ras El Hekma megaproject.
In addition to being master developer for the entire development spanning 170 million square metres, Modon Holding will undertake the responsibility of the developer role for the first phase of the envisaged city consisting of 50 million square metres.
The remaining 120 million square metres, which are part of the master plan presented by Modon Holding, will be developed in partnership with prominent developers from Egypt, the UAE, and the international community under the oversight of the recently established ADQ subsidiary Ras El Hekma Urban Development Project Company and Modon Holding.
This iconic project represents a major milestone for Modon Holding by significantly increasing its land under development outside the UAE. Ras El Hekma is located around 350 kilometres northwest of Cairo and envisioned as a fully functional, smart, sustainable, and inclusive urban community situated against the scenic coastline.
The project is expected to become a powerful economic engine, with cumulative investments anticipated to reach US$110 billion by 2045, an annual GDP contribution of around US$25 billion, and approximately 750,000 jobs to be created, both directly and indirectly.
Upon completion, the development will be home to two million people and feature more than 40 kilometres of green spines, set to make Ras El Hekma the greenest megaproject in the region.
As a result of Ras El Hekma’s location within a four-hour flight for over 400 million outbound tourists, the establishment of tourism infrastructure will be a priority during the first phases of the development, encompassing an international airport as well as high-speed rail connectivity. The masterplan also includes residential areas, office spaces, hospitality venues, retail, leisure, and recreation facilities.
Ras El Hekma will have an international marina and a special free zone. Additionally, Modon Holding will look to develop infrastructure to support a range of high-growth industries, including business services, financial services, light manufacturing, and technology.
His Excellency Jassem Mohamed Bu Ataba Al Zaabi, Chairman of Modon Holding, said, “Ras El Hekma is destined to become a regional crown jewel in a country already famed for its rich and diverse attractions. Modon Holding is proud to bring this 170-million-square-metre visionary megaproject to life, leveraging our expertise and innovative approach. With our partners, we are poised to transform Ras El Hekma into a dynamic economic powerhouse and a global model for urban development.”
His Excellency Mohamed Hassan Alsuwaidi, Managing Director and Group Chief Executive Officer of ADQ, said, “As a project of unprecedented scale and impact, Ras El Hekma will be a catalyst for the development of Egypt’s economy by offering opportunities for businesses and stimulate tourism. Modon Holding brings a wealth of expertise in master planning and will pioneer state-of-the-art, innovative solutions, creating a destination that will deliver long-term value for Egypt and its people.”
Bill O’Regan, Group CEO of Modon Holding, said, “The Ras El Hekma destination is one of the Group’s most significant investment and development projects outside the UAE. The project provides an incredible development pipeline, and Modon Holding looks forward to delivering a destination that will be an exceptional experience for visitors and residents alike.”
During the ceremony, Modon Holding PSC engaged with the initial major partners to join in the development of the Ras El Hekma megaproject on Egypt’s stunning Mediterranean coast.
Ras El Hekma is set to become a leading urban and tourist hub, boasting a wide array of attractions and amenities. Modon Holding aims to harness its large-scale development expertise, collaborating with local, regional, and global partners to bring this visionary destination masterplan to life.
These collaborative efforts, combined with a focus on diverse entertainment, sports, cultural events, and top-tier community management, will position Ras El Hekma as a premier Mediterranean destination.
While the immediate focus is on tourism and hospitality, Modon’s long-term vision for the 170-square-metre site also includes business services, financial services, light manufacturing, and technology.
Modon Engages First Batch of Investors and Partners in Landmark Ceremony
On 4th October, in a momentous ceremony attended by President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Egyptian President His Excellency Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, Modon proudly initiated the engagement of its first group of investors and partners.
The event marked the signing of several significant agreements aimed at driving the development of the new destination:
– A framework agreement with Orascom Construction, designating them as one of the primary contractors for the initial phase of the project.
– A memorandum of understanding with Elsewedy Electric to explore opportunities for supplying building materials and collaborating on industrial parks, manufacturing, operations, and maintenance.
– A memorandum of understanding with Abu Dhabi Airports to collaborate in airport strategic planning, design, development, and operational support.
