8x8 ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND YEAR END 2004 RESULTS
SANTA CLARA, Calif. (May 27, 2004) - 8x8, Inc. (Nasdaq: EGHT) today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2004.
Total revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004 were $2 million, compared with $2.9 million for the same period of the prior year. The net loss for the quarter was $1.5 million, or $0.04 per share, compared with a net loss of $3.8 million, or $0.13 per share for the same period last year.
Total revenues for the year ended March 31, 2004, were $9.3 million, compared with $11 million for fiscal 2003. The net loss for fiscal 2004 was $3 million, or $0.09 per share, compared with a net loss of $11.4 million, or $0.40 per share for fiscal 2003.
The decline in total revenues for the quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, as compared to the comparable periods in 2003, was attributable to the Company's transition from its legacy semiconductor business to the Packet8 voice over internet protocol (VoIP) and videophone service. Total revenues for the Company's Packet8 VoIP service and related equipment sales increased to $672,000 for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, compared with $363,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2004. For the year ended March 31, 2004, Packet8 service revenues and related equipment sales approximated $1.3 million. As of March 31, 2004, the Company had approximately 11,000 activated Packet8 subscriber lines in service.
The Company's cash position increased to $14 million as of March 31, 2004, compared with $13.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2004 due to proceeds received from the exercise of warrants issued in the November 2003 private placement.
