Exhibit 99.1
Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp Announces Third Quarter FY 2012 Results
CARLSTADT, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--February 15, 2012--Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp (“Tel”, “Tel-Instrument” or the “Company”) (NYSE Amex: TIK) today announced results for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011. During the first nine months of fiscal 2012, the Company reported solid sales growth and a significant increase in net income.
For the first nine months of fiscal year 2012, revenues grew 16% to $11,337,800 as compared to revenue of $9,772,435 for the same period in the prior year. Tel reported net income of $376,596 or $0.14 per share in the first nine months of fiscal 2012 as compared to a net loss of $334,394 or a loss of $0.13 per share in the first nine months of fiscal 2011.
Tel reported revenues of $3.7 million in the third quarter ended December 31, 2011, a 13% decrease as compared to revenues of $4.3 million in the same prior year quarter. The Company achieved net income of $97,441 or $0.04 per share in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, as compared to net income of $29,012 or $0.01 per share in the third quarter of fiscal 2011. Results for the fiscal third quarter were below the Company’s expectations due to a disruption in manufacturing operations associated with the move to a new facility and ramp-up issues associated with the AN/USM-708 program. Revenue growth in the fourth quarter of the current fiscal year is expected to materially accelerate with the full rate production of the AN/USM-708 and initial production of the TS-4530 units.
Jeff O’Hara, President and Chief Executive Officer of Tel stated, “The Company did a solid job completing the facility move in the third quarter while also achieving a sixth consecutive quarter of profitability. With our backlog of approximately $45 million providing a great foundation for growth, we continue to be excited about the future. The substantial completion of three major development programs during the quarter is a significant achievement for the Company and represents the culmination of our pre-production phase, bringing us to the beginning of significant growth. The technologies developed will provide a platform for future development programs and allow the Company to extend its product line and expand into new markets. We are at the beginning of a new phase for our Company, and we look forward to continued growth and significantly improved profitability.”
