Arieh Reichart, President and Chief Executive Officer of Eltek commented: "Our capital investment plan is being implemented as scheduled and we expect to see improvements in our manufacturing capabilities beginning in the fourth quarter of this year. The results of our operations in the first quarter of 2014 were negatively impacted by the weakness of the U.S. dollar, as the exchange rate of the dollar compared to the NIS in the first quarter of 2014 was 5.7% lower than in the first quarter of 2013. In addition we saw a decline in revenues due to the shift of certain programs to the U.S. by some domestic defense customers. We are working on building alternative sources of revenues to offset such reduction in orders."
