Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
 
On August 15, 2005, Arotech Corporation (the “Registrant”) publicly disseminated an earnings release (the “Release”) announcing our financial results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2005. A copy of the Release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
 
The information included in the attached Exhibit 99.1 is being furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K, insofar as it discloses historical information regarding the Registrant’s results of operations and financial condition as of and for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2005. In accordance with General Instructions B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
 
To supplement the consolidated financial results as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Release presents a non-GAAP financial measure, “EBITDA” (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization). We believe that the use of EBITDA enhances overall understanding of our current financial performance. As required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, EBITDA is reconciled to Net Profit (Loss) in the Release.
