CSP Inc. Reports Third-Quarter Fiscal 2015 Financial Results
BILLERICA, MA, August 12, 2015 - CSP Inc. (NASDAQ: CSPI), a provider of IT solutions and high-performance Ethernet products for diverse applications, today reported financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 ended June 30, 2015.
The Company also announced that its board of directors has voted to pay its quarterly dividend of $0.11 per share to shareholders of record August 26, 2015 payable September 11, 2015.
Management Comments
“We had a successful third quarter overall, with the exception of a large loss in the UK that had a significant effect on our results,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Victor Dellovo. “The UK loss was due to additional service contract costs for which we were unable to bill additional revenue, a write off of development expenses which we determined would have no future benefit, and severance and related costs for the reorganization of the UK operation.”
“At our High-Performance Products (HPP) division, we reported revenues from three E2-D planes and are on track to receive royalties for a total of five planes for the fiscal year,” said Dellovo. “We also posted another strong quarter from Myricom’s historical product suite, which we initially had expected to decline over time. Sales of these products have surpassed our expectations and our sales force is being very aggressive in continuing to drive demand. We recently announced the general availability of the fourth generation of Myricom network adapters for the financial services market, where they are being used in high-frequency trading. We expect sales of these products to ramp up as we flow products through the channel. In addition to the financial services product, we shipped Alpha versions of the new 10 gig packet capture product at the end of Q3. We expect to ship the Alpha version of the 100 gig packet capture product in the first quarter of 2016.”
“At our Technology Solutions (TS) division, our pipeline of managed services offerings is healthy and we’re focused on closing deals,” said Dellovo. “In Germany, demand continued to be strong for penetration testing and hacking, and in the U.S., we closed additional deals for the installation and services around Microsoft Office 365.”
“Looking forward, we expect to receive royalty revenues for two E2-D planes in Q4, providing a significant benefit to both our top and bottom lines. In addition, at Myricom, with the release of our financial services product and anticipated release of our packet capture product, we expect to see revenue from that business incrementally ramp as we enter and proceed through FY16. Finally, we continue to see our Managed Services offerings as an excellent driver of growth and recurring sales for the long term. As a result, we are enthusiastic about our prospects going forward.”
Financial Results
Exhibit 99.1
For the third quarter of fiscal 2015, revenue was $22.3 million compared with $22.6 million in the third quarter a year ago. Foreign exchange had a negative effect on revenue of $1.4 million for the quarter.
Gross margin for the third quarter was 23.6% compared with 27.0% for the prior-year period. The decrease was primarily the result of the loss in the U.K. and a change in revenue recognition policy for HPP.
Net income for the third quarter was $249,000, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared with net income of $899,000, or $0.25 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2014. The third quarter loss in the U.K. was approximately $0.6 million.
Cash and short-term investments decreased to $10.4 million from $16.4 million at year end. The decrease was primarily due to a $5.4 million increase in accounts receivable as a result of a high level of sales received late in the quarter.
