Financial Highlights for the third quarter compared to the prior year

  • The Company's revenues for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 were $6.5 million, a decrease of 16% (or $1.2 million) over revenues of $7.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2010.
  • Gross Profit for Q3 FY2012 was $2.7 million compared to Q3 FY2011 of $3.1 million, or a decrease of 13%.

  • EBITDA (which is defined as GAAP earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization), was a positive $193,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2012 as compared to an EBITDA of a positive $1.3 million for the comparable prior year period.

Market Highlights for the nine months ended December 31, 2011, compared to the nine months ended Fiscal 2011

  • Telecommunication revenue up 33% or $2.3 million
  • Medical Market revenue up 23% or $152,000
  • Homeland security market revenues up $921,000
  • Military revenue down 16% or $633,000
  • Industrial/NDT revenue down 8% or $758,000

Richard Kurtz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our third quarter results were as expected, down in light of the flooding in Thailand which affected the supply chain for our major telecommunications customers, as well as the timing of orders in the military market. While the first half of the year was strong in the telecommunications market, as we stated last quarter revenues in the second half are expected to be down substantially. We believe that this is primarily attributable to the temporary supply chain issue and not a lack of long term demand for our 40G and 100G products. We expect a return to the robust growth we enjoyed in the first half of this fiscal year to return in our next fiscal year. We are continuing to sell our T-Ray® systems into industrial applications and are working closely with our customers to establish a Value Added Reseller channel to install, integrate and service our systems. With our new banking relationship we have the financial strength to continue investing in our high growth opportunities and are optimistic about our long term future, but as we stated last quarter, for this fiscal year we are reducing our annual revenue growth for this fiscal year to a maximum of 5% year over year.”

The Company will hold a conference call to discuss the results for the second quarter Monday, February 13, 2012, at 4:30 PM EST.
