CPS TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION ANNOUNCES 2013 RESULTS
Norton, Massachusetts, March 5, 2014. CPS Technologies Corporation (OTCQB:CPSH) today announced revenues of $5.1 million and a net profit of $276 thousand for the Fourth Quarter ended December 28, 2013. This compares with revenues of $4.1 million and a net loss of $84 thousand for the Fourth Quarter ended December 29, 2012.
Revenues for the year ended December 28, 2013 totaled $21.4 million compared with $14.1 million for the year ended December 29, 2012. Net income for the year totaled $1.0 million versus a net loss of $1.5 million for the year ended December 29, 2012.
Grant Bennett, President and CEO, said, “After a very challenging 2012 when we were adversely affected by a slowdown in demand, primarily in Europe, we rebounded to establish a record level of annual sales, profits and cash generation. Looking forward we see our base business as healthy and growing. Market research studies project our major markets of traction, especially high speed trains, and hybrid and electric vehicles growing at annual rates in the mid-teens for the next several years.
“We are reinvesting funds generated from this base business in an expansion of sales and marketing and on breakout opportunities, including armor and oil and gas.”
