CSPi Reports Third-Quarter Fiscal 2017 Financial Results
Lowell, MA, August 14, 2017 - CSP Inc. (NASDAQ: CSPI), a provider of advanced security products and security services, as well as IT technology managed services for diverse applications, today reported financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 ended June 30, 2017.
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 21, 2017 payable September 5, 2017.
Management Comments
“We had a solid third quarter as we executed on our growth strategy across our High Performance Products (HPP) and Technology Solutions (TS) divisions,” said Chief Executive Officer Victor Dellovo. “Our cross-selling efforts are gaining traction, our managed services pipeline is growing, and we are advancing the development of our HPP products to capitalize on the rapidly growing security space. From a financial perspective, third-quarter sales were up 13% year over year, primarily due to strong demand at our U.S. business in the TS division, while our bottom line was negatively affected by a greater mix of higher margin products in Q3 last year.
“In HPP, we launched an enhancement to our Myricom nVoy Series solution that enables the automatic detection of a data breach to critical databases or file stores. The newly announced Myricom nVoy AIR application automatically provides security teams with indisputable breach evidence at the earliest and most critical stages of incident response, meaning that investigative activities can typically be wrapped up within hours of total duration instead of the weeks that is normal today. We are partnering with established security leaders to create integrated cost-effective solutions that automate breach detection. Our first such solution is an integration between Myricom nVoy AIR application and Cisco FirePOWER firewall and network IPS products. We are confident in our efforts to reposition HPP as a security solution provider with actions taking place in engineering, marketing and sales. We received royalty revenues from two and a half E-2D planes in the third quarter, and our expectation is to receive royalties from two additional planes in the fourth quarter.
“In TS, there was a revenue increase mostly driven by strong product sales and several new contract wins in the U.S. We are continuing to hire engineers in the U.S. to support future growth. The U.K. performed well during the quarter, while Germany reported a loss as a result of shipments of several large orders for which it will not record associated revenue until the fourth quarter. We expect a strong fourth quarter in both regions as customer sales continue to ramp up.
“Looking forward, we are expecting solid performance in the fourth quarter given our backlog in both divisions. Longer term, we are making great progress against our strategic initiatives and are positioning CSP to capitalize on many growth opportunities,” concluded Dellovo.

Financial Results

Gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 decreased to 22.3% from 26.8% for the prior-year period due to product mix.
Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 was $695,000, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared with net income of $1.3 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.
Cash and short-term investments increased to $16.0 million at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2017 from $13.1 million at year end as a result of changes in working capital.
