Southwall Announces Q2 2007 Results
Palo Alto, California- 7 August, 2007 –Southwall Technologies Inc. (OTCBB:SWTX) announced second quarter 2007 revenue of $9.250 million compared to $11.337 million in the second quarter of 2006 an 18.4% decrease. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in revenues from our electronic display products partially offset by an increase from our window film and architectural products.
Second quarter 2007 net income was $462 thousand, or $0.01 per fully diluted share, compared to a loss of $1.387 million or ($0.06) per fully diluted share for the second quarter of 2006. The increase was primarily due to a lower operating expenses and other income from a Technology Transfer and Service Agreement.
Our cash and cash equivalents at the end of the second quarter were $2.937million.
Dr. Gene Goodson, CEO said “we are pleased that both the first and second quarter were profitable in part as the result of reduced operating costs. I believe that the Board of Directors’ appointment of Dennis Capovilla as President and Michael Vargas as Vice President of General Administration will strengthen our management team.”
The Company will hold a teleconference at 2:00 p.m. PT / 5:00 p.m. ET today to discuss the results in more detail.
This call will be open to all investors via a webcast accessible at www.southwall.com and by phone. Both phone and webcast replays will be available for approximately one week after the teleconference, beginning approximately two hours after the call ends.
