Concurrent Reports Fiscal 2012 Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year Financial Results

Revenue for the fiscal 2012 fourth quarter was $14.7 million compared with $15.1 million for the same period in fiscal 2011, and $16.3 million in the preceding quarter of fiscal 2012. 

Gross margin for the fiscal 2012 fourth quarter was 57% compared with 56% for the same period in fiscal 2011, and 61% in the preceding quarter of fiscal 2012, primarily reflecting the mix of product and service revenue.  Operating expenses were $8.3 million, compared with $10.3 million for the same period in fiscal 2011, and $9.3 million in the preceding quarter of fiscal 2012.  

The company reported net income of $209,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, compared with a loss of $1.4 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the same period in fiscal 2011, and net income of $337,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the preceding quarter of fiscal 2012.

"In the fourth quarter, the company achieved profitability despite a disappointing revenue level," said Dan Mondor, the company's president and CEO. "We improved our operating model by implementing a number of process improvements and made significant organization changes, which resulted in operational efficiency gains. The measures we took throughout the year and primarily in the second half resulted in operating expense reductions of $1 million compared to the prior quarter and $2 million compared to the same quarter last fiscal year." Mondor continued, "The competitive position of our products remains solid, however, we were significantly impacted by lower spending levels by some of our top customers in fiscal 2012."

For fiscal 2012, revenue totaled approximately $60.3 million compared with $66.8 million for fiscal 2011.  Consolidated gross margin for the year was over 57% compared with 56% for fiscal 2011.  Total operating expenses were $36.8 million compared with total operating expenses of $40.1 million for fiscal 2011.  For fiscal 2012, the company posted a net loss of $2.9 million, equal to $0.34 per share, compared with a net loss of $3.3 million, equal to $0.39 per share, in fiscal 2011.

At June 30, 2012, Concurrent had cash and cash equivalents of $29.6 million. The company has no debt.
