Technical Communications Corporation Reports Results for the Three Months Ended December 27, 2014
CONCORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--February 6, 2015--Technical Communications Corporation (NasdaqCM: TCCO) today announced its results for the three months ended December 27, 2014. For the quarter ended December 27, 2014, the Company reported a net loss of $(728,000), or $(0.40) per share, on revenue of $883,000, as compared to net income of $184,000, or $0.10 per share, on revenue of $2,509,000 for the quarter ended December 28, 2013.
Commenting on corporate performance, Carl H. Guild, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of TCC, said, “Our results reflect the delay in receiving a major foreign contract coupled with customer and production delivery requirements. Despite the delay, I am pleased to report that we ended the first quarter of fiscal 2015 with a $4 million backlog, which products we expect to deliver over the next two quarters.”
Mr. Guild continued, “We also have a pipeline of potential contracts and plan to build upon our market niche of meeting unique customer requirements by expanding our services offering portfolio.”
