TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH CORPORATION
ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR FIRST FISCAL QUARTER
CLEARWATER, FLORIDA, August 1, 2005 -- Technology Research Corporation (“TRC”), (NASDAQ-TRCI),
today announced revenues and earnings for its first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2005. Revenues were $10,576,750,
compared to $7,130,944 for the same quarter last year, an increase of 48%. Net income for the current quarter was
$292,835, compared to $673,670 for the same quarter last year, a decrease of 57%. Basic and diluted earnings for
the current quarter were $.05 per share, compared to basic earnings of $.12 per share and diluted earnings of $.11
per share for the same quarter last year.
Jerry Kendall, President and CEO commented, “We had a good start to our 2006 fiscal year with 7.9% growth in our
core commercial business and additional revenues of $3.85 million which were generated by the seasonal room air
conditioner (“RAC”) market, a market which was not present a year ago. While we accomplished excellent revenue
growth, the additional revenues did not generate a higher level of net income. Product mix plus higher than anticipated
costs were the major factors that impacted the bottom line.” Kendall added, “In looking forward to the remaining
three quarters of fiscal 2006, the Company will continue to pursue revenue growth while making the necessary changes
to improve net income.”
Commercial revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 increased $4,153,440, compared to the same quarter in the
prior year, and military revenues decreased $655,003. Royalty income decreased $52,631. The increase in commercial
revenues was primarily attributed to RAC product shipments, and to a lesser extent product expansion into retail stores.
The Company expects continued growth in its commercial revenues in fiscal 2006 with seasonal low revenues expected
in its second quarter ending September 30, 2005. The decrease in military revenues resulted from a delay in certain
follow-on releases of existing contracts for control devices related to the Tactical Quiet Generator (“TQG”) programs.
In addition, certain direct military orders could not be placed until June, when the Department of Defense released
supplemental spending for its fiscal 2005 year. The Company expects military sales in fiscal 2006 to remain comparable
to fiscal 2005. Royalties decreased as the result of a minimum royalty payment during the prior year’s quarter by Applica,
Inc. in the amount of $50,000 which did not occur in the current quarter. The Company does not expect to record any
significant royalties in fiscal 2006.
The first quarter dividend of $.015 per share was paid on July 22, 2005 to shareholders of record on June 30, 2005. The
Company’s annual dividend is $.06 per share.
