CSP INC. ANNOUNCES THIRD-QUARTER FISCAL 2007 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Company Reports Fifth Consecutive Quarter of Growth on Strength of
MODCOMP and MultiComputer Sales
BILLERICA, MA, August 7, 2007 - CSP Inc. (NASDAQ: CSPI), a provider of IT solutions, systems integration services and dense cluster computing systems, today reported financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 ended June 30, 2007.
For the third quarter of fiscal 2007, CSP Inc. sales increased 40% to $25.9 million from $18.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 was $882 thousand, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $44 thousand, or $0.01 per share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2006.
For the first nine months of fiscal 2007, CSP Inc. sales increased 28% to $65.9 million from $51.3 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2006. Net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2007 grew 377% to $2.1 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, from net income of $443 thousand, or $0.12 per diluted share, in the first nine months of fiscal 2006.
"We hit on all cylinders in the third quarter and achieved our fifth consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth," stated Alexander R. Lupinetti, CSP chairman and chief executive officer.
"Our Systems segment performed well in the quarter, due primarily to shipments to Raytheon related to our existing supply contract for FastCluster 220R MultiComputers," said Lupinetti. "We have now shipped $9.4 million of product and services to Raytheon and expect to ship the remaining systems under the approximately $18 million contract in the current fourth fiscal quarter."
"In our Service and Systems Integration segment, MODCOMP also achieved another impressive quarter, driven by continued sales growth by our German subsidiary and the Systems and Solutions Division (SSD)," added Lupinetti. "We are enthusiastic about our recently launched "Information Lifecycle Management" professional consulting practice in Germany. To capitalize on the demand for these consulting services, we have hired five new professionals to focus on Identity Management, Archiving and Network Migration. This new practice is an ideal complement to our "Security" and "Data Storage" practices both in terms of expertise and customer needs."
"During the third quarter we reduced the workforce in our UK subsidiary in order to lower overhead and focus on our higher margin custom software development solutions," said Lupinetti. "This should enhance the level of profitability in the UK and for MODCOMP overall. MODCOMP's Systems and Solutions Division (SSD) also continues to report strong sales. We are focused on hiring salespeople to capitalize on the healthy demand for SSD's cutting edge IT infrastructure solutions."
"Looking ahead, our visibility into our Systems segment is limited as a result of uncertainty regarding defense appropriations for strategic programs due to shifting military tactical priorities," said Lupinetti. "At the same time, our ability to meet Raytheon's high quality and performance needs and strict deadline requirements strongly positions CSP for future military procurement opportunities. In addition, we are receiving positive preliminary feedback on our new FastCluster 3000 Series MultiComputers."
"We are enthusiastic about our prospects as we enter the final quarter of what has been an excellent year for CSP thus far. We are looking forward to completing delivery of our FastCluster 200R shipments to Raytheon and MODCOMP is positioned well in each of its businesses to capitalize on strong market demand," concluded Lupinetti.
