Mr. Shenping Yin, Chairman and CEO of Recon stated, "The past twelve months have been difficult for us as our major customers cut their capital budgets, canceled or delayed new projects in light of slowing domestic production for oil and gas and plunges in oil and gas prices. As a result, we faced continued challenges throughout the fiscal year of 2015 and saw declines in overall revenues for the first time in the Company history. While the oil and gas industry is likely to continue to face multifaceted challenges in the near term, we firmly believe that we are well prepared to withstand the storm and to capitalize on an eventual recovery of the oil and gas industry."
