Comarco Reports Fiscal 2012 Fourth Quarter And Full Year Financial Results
LAKE FOREST, Calif., April 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Comarco, Inc. (OTC: CMRO) today announced its financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter and full fiscal year ended January 31, 2012. The Company also filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2012 with the Securities and Exchange Commission today.
Fourth Fiscal Quarter Results
Revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 was $0.9 million compared with $3.2 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company reported a net loss of $1.4 million, or $0.18 per share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with a net loss of $3.4 million, or $0.46 per share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011.
The decrease in revenue was primarily due to a disruption in our supply chain which we resolved in the first quarter of fiscal 2013.
Full Fiscal 2012 Results
Revenue for fiscal 2012 totaled $8.1 million, compared with $28.9 million in fiscal 2011. The Company reported a net loss from continuing operations of $5.3 million, or $0.72 per share, for fiscal 2012 compared with a net loss from continuing operations of $5.4 million, or $0.73 per share, for fiscal 2011.
The Company reported a net loss of $5.3 million, or $0.72 per share, for fiscal 2012, compared with a net loss of $6.0 million, or $0.81 per share, for fiscal 2011.
"While the fiscal 2012 results are disappointing, we accomplished a tremendous amount in the year" said Tom Lanni, the Company's President and CEO. "We significantly restructured Comarco so as to position the company for future growth, and we remain optimistic about the progress we are making to create shareholder value. We recently launched our direct-to-consumer website www.chargesource.com, and we are currently working on innovative and disruptive marketing and branding strategies to highlight how the superior functionality of our ChargeSource® product can help everyone who carries electronic devices. In addition to launching our latest best-in-class power adapter on our new retail website and reducing our operating expenses significantly in fiscal 2012, we settled disputes with former corporate officers and one of our former suppliers, and aggressively pursued patent infringers. Going forward, we will continue to prudently manage our operating expenses and will look to invest appropriately to drive future growth and profitability."
