First quarter revenue was $33.3 million, up 9.0% from $30.5 million in the year ago quarter. The company reported net income for the quarter of $449 thousand or $0.07 per diluted share, compared with net income of $47 thousand, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the year ago quarter. For the first quarter of fiscal year 2005, gross margin was 40.0%, up from 36.2% in the same period one year ago due primarily to a stronger Euro, higher sales volume and lower warranty and inventory provisions. Operating expenses in the first quarter were $12.5 million, up from $11.0 million in the year ago fiscal period as a result of higher sales and marketing costs primarily for expansion in the Asia Pacific region, higher marketing and engineering expenses primarily related to RFID product development and market introduction and higher consulting costs associated with satisfying Sarbanes-Oxley requirements. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal year 2005 was 43% due to foreign taxes paid and the expiration of a tax holiday in Singapore. "During the quarter, we began to see results from our efforts to build line matrix printer revenue. We believe we continued to gain market share in the thermal printer segment as well as positioning Printronix in the emerging RFID market with expanded alliances and partnerships. Significantly, our solutions approach to the RFID opportunity generated tremendous amount of interest at a recent Wal-Mart vendors conference," said Bob Kleist, President and CEO of Printronix. The company ended the first quarter with cash of $39.0 million, up $9.6 million from the year ago quarter. The company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock during the first quarter of fiscal year 2005. On July 8, 2004, there will be an earnings conference call at 1:30 p.m. PT (4:30 p.m. ET). The call will be broadcast live over the Internet and will be hosted by Robert Kleist, President and CEO and George Harwood, Senior Vice President and CFO.
