Harris Interactive® Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year Fiscal 2011 Results
New York, N.Y. — September 28, 2011 — Harris Interactive Inc. (NASDAQ: HPOL), a global custom market research firm, today announced its fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2011 financial results.
Al Angrisani, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Harris Interactive commented, “It has been approximately 100 days since I assumed the role of Interim CEO and initiated a turnaround program. The financial results below are the product of a previous turnaround effort that was not successful. Putting this disappointing fiscal 2011 behind us, we are now focused on remedying the major challenges that face the Company as we attempt to restore the Company’s business model back to viability and begin the process of creating shareholder value. Unfortunately, this is not going to be a quick or easy fix.”
