FARO Reports First Quarter 2016 Financial Results
LAKE MARY, FL, May 3, 2016 – FARO Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: FARO) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2016.
Sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 were $75.7 million, up 8.3% compared with $69.9 million in the first quarter last year. Excluding approximately $0.9 million of unfavorable foreign exchange impacts, first quarter sales would have increased approximately 10% as compared with the first quarter of 2015. The Company’s sales growth was driven primarily by higher metrology sales within the Americas and Asia-Pacific regions.
Gross margin for the quarter was 56.3% compared with 56.6% in the prior year period with product and service margins remaining relatively consistent with the prior year period.
Operating income for the quarter was $4.3 million compared with $1.9 million in the prior year period, reflecting increased sales volume partially offset by a modest increase in operating expenses.
Net income and EPS for the quarter was $3.1 million and $0.19, respectively, compared with $0.7 million and $0.04, respectively, in the prior year period.
“The FARO team delivered a strong first quarter, while overcoming economic pressures in certain regions around the globe,” stated Dr. Simon Raab, President and Chief Executive Officer. “As announced previously, we are in the process of re-aligning our organization to better serve our customers. I was pleased with the focus and dedication of our employees to drive growth in the quarter, and at the same time take key steps forward with our reorganization initiatives. We remain committed to increasing our products’ customer focus and improving our global efficiency in order to retain and enhance our market leadership position.”
