ARC WIRELESS SOLUTIONS REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Wheat Ridge, Colorado November 12, 2007 - ARC Wireless Solutions, Inc.
("ARC") (NASDAQ:ARCW) today announced operating results for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2007. Revenues for the three months ended September
30, 2007 were $1,986,000 compared to $1,837,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2006. Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 were
$5,656,000 compared to $5,210,000 for the same period last year. The increases
in revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 are attributable to the
increase in sales by our Wireless Communications Solutions Division.
The net loss from continued operations for the three months ended September
30, 2007 was $(173,000), or $(.06) per share, compared to the net loss of
$(331,000), or $(.11) per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
The net loss from continued operations for the nine months ended September 30,
2007 was $(365,000), or $(.12) per share, compared to the net loss of
$(928,000), or $(.30) per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
Interest income was $220,000 and $1,000, respectively, for the three months
ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, and $584,000 and $2,000,
respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30,
2006. The increased amounts are attributable to cash on hand from the sale of
our Winncom Technologies Corp. subsidiary in the fourth quarter of 2006.
Gross profit was 31% and 25% for the three months ended September 30, 2007
and September 30, 2006, respectively, and 32% and 25% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, respectively. The increase in gross
profit percentage for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 is
primarily the result of lower operating costs due to our efforts in successfully
transitioning some of our production to China through our Hong Kong subsidiary,
ARC Wireless Hong Kong Ltd., as well as reducing overhead from our U.S.
operations. As of September 30, 2007 the Company's net book value was $5.10 per
share.
"Similar to last quarter, the improvements in our year-over-year operating
results were driven primarily by the continued growth of our Wireless
Communications Solutions Division, which increased revenues but more importantly
continues to improve gross margins," commented Randall P. Marx, ARC's Chief
Executive Officer. "During 2007, although not without challenges, we have made
substantial progress in transitioning the manufacturing of our products to China
and optimizing the cost structure of the business. We are pleased with the
introduction of several new products this year. However, most of these newly
introduced solutions are still being manufactured at our U.S. headquarters in
Colorado. It is our goal to transfer the production of our new products to China
in a more timely manner."
"We have further integrated our engineering and sales structure as
previously announced. These changes are designed to focus the antenna division's
efforts on our most profitable revenue prospects and also to better execute on
the numerous potential design and manufacturing opportunities presented to us in
the wireless space," Mr. Marx concluded.
