Management Commentary:

“We are pleased to start our new fiscal year with record revenue and strong performance across all business segments,” said Joe Bergera, President and CEO. “We believe the strong performance in both our transportation and agriculture markets reflects the solid foundation we established during the prior fiscal year.”

“Our team is strengthening the solution portfolios we offer our end-customers, while also implementing important business model innovations that we believe will create long-term shareholder value. We are excited about the company’s continuing revenue growth, but are equally determined to create a highly scalable business model. We remain focused on effective cost management that will drive EBITA positive performance in the future.”

Fiscal First Quarter 2018 Financial Results

Total revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 increased 14% to a record $27.2 million, compared to $23.9 million in the same quarter a year ago. This growth was driven by a 19% increase in Transportation Systems, a 6% increase in Roadway Sensors, and a 28% increase in Agriculture and Weather Analytics revenue.

Operating expenses in the first quarter were $10.5 million, compared to $9.5 million in the same quarter a year ago. The increase was primarily due to increases in selling, general and administrative expenses as a result of planned headcount increases in corporate headquarters marketing, general and administrative positions, as well as increases in the Transportations Systems and Roadway Sensors salesforce headcount, all of which resulted in higher salary and personnel-related costs.

Operating loss in the first quarter was $552,000, compared to an operating loss of $90,000 in the same quarter a year ago. Net loss in the first quarter was $470,000, or ($0.01) per share, compared to a net loss of $38,000, or ($0.00) per share in the year-ago quarter.
