(NASDAQ: GGNS), announced today results for the fourth quarter and year end 1998. The Company reported net sales of $5.1 million, compared to $20.9 million for the fourth quarter of 1997. Net income for the fourth quarter of 1998 was $1.3 million or $0.07 per share, compared to a net loss of $20.3 million or $1.20 per share for the same quarter of 1997. The Company's net sales for 1998 were $32.4 million and net loss was $29.5 million, resulting in a loss of $1.71 per share available to common shareholders. In comparison, Genus' net sales for the previous year were $84.3 million and net loss was $19.3 million or $1.15 per share. Kenneth Schwanda, Genus' vice president of finance, commented, "Genus posted a $1.3 million profit for the quarter although operationally the company incurred a loss of $830,000. This profit is attributed to non-recurring cost reversals of $2.1 million related to inventory, warranty, and restructuring charges. We exited the quarter maintaining our strong balance sheet and with today's announcement of a multiple system order from a major DRAM manufacturer, Genus is well positioned going into 1999." "We are encouraged by the improving signs we are seeing in the semiconductor marketplace," said William W.R. Elder, Genus' chairman and CEO. "The multiple system order announced today confirms this trend. In addition, Genus' new product announcements in the fourth quarter of 1998 position us extremely well for the upturn projected by the industry analysts for the second half of this year."
