PHAZAR CORP Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2011 Financial Results
MINERAL WELLS, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 25, 2011--PHAZAR CORP, (NASDAQ: ANTP) designs, manufactures and markets antennas, wireless mesh network solutions, towers, support structures, masts and communication accessories worldwide. Today, PHAZAR CORP announces the results of operations for the three and twelve month periods ended June 30, 2011 and the one month period ended June 30, 2010.
Fourth Quarter Fiscal Year 2011
Revenues of $1,728,076 for the fourth quarter increased 22% compared to $1,415,297 for the same three month period last year. Sales from our shipboard product line were up $489,464 during the fourth quarter compared to the same period last year, offset by a $257,006 decline in the commercial wireless sales quarter over quarter.
The $262,279, or 21% decrease in cost of goods sold is largely attributed to a non-recurring $203,000 adjustment to the warranty reserve in the fourth quarter in fiscal year 2010. The warranty charge was for an ongoing voluntary recall of safety climb components and a replacement of a specific production run of a new antenna design that was found to have a manufacturing defect, which has since been rectified. The fourth quarter fiscal year 2011 gross profit margin improved over patterns seen earlier in the year.
The $177,639, or 19% decrease in sales and administration expense reflects a $203,383 non-recurring stock compensation charge in the fourth quarter of prior year. Research and development costs of $63,748 were up $47,828, for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $15,920 in the prior year. The increase represents continued product development for the commercial wireless product line.
The Company recognized a net loss of $52,060, or $.02 per share for the fourth quarter, compared to net loss of $569,397, or $.25 per share, in last year's fiscal fourth quarter.
One Month Period Ended June 30, 2010
The Company reported revenues for the one month period ended June 30, 2010 of $1,002,331 with a gross profit margin of 56%. Net income for the one month period was $36,489, or $.02 per share.
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2011
The Company reported revenues for the fiscal year 2011 of $8,399,586, an increase of $1,401,753, or 20% compared to fiscal year 2010 ending on May 31, 2010. The pattern of sales for the fiscal year reflects strong growth in the ILS markets ($1,123,295) during the first half of the year and the shipboard product line predominately in the fourth quarter ($587,479). The gross profit margin improved slightly at 44% in fiscal year 2011, compared to 43% in fiscal year 2010.
The $686,217, or 21% decrease in selling, general and administration expense reflects $325,610 of non-recurring stock compensation expense in fiscal year 2010 along with a continued increase in plant utilization overhead.
In January 2011, the Company announced that, after a thorough review of the progress and status of the True Mesh Network Radio program, the Board of Directors concluded that commercial viability and profitability was unlikely to be achievable in the foreseeable future and voted to discontinue further development. As a result, the Company has recorded a charge of $994,082 for discontinued operations, net of tax for the year ended June 30, 2011, of which $508,546 relates to activity prior to the decision to discontinue operations.
The Company recognized a net loss after discontinued operations of $326,833, or $.14 per share for the year ended June 30, 2011 compared to a net loss of $937,994, or $.41 per share for fiscal year ended May 30, 2010.
Backlog of Orders
The Company's backlog of orders on June 30, 2011, totaled approximately $2,277,566 compared to $2,561,866 at June 30, 2010 and $2,907,590 at May 31, 2010, a decrease of 21.6%. Incoming orders for the year ended June 30, 2011 totaled $8,359,869 versus $8,846,659 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2010, a decrease of 6%.
Commenting on operations and financial results, Garland P. Asher, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Recent Congressional budget wrangling is negatively impacting DOD and FAA order activity, and uncertainty surrounding the proposed AT&T – T Mobile merger would appear to be delaying DAS antenna projects in the commercial area.”
