LRAD® Corporation Reports Record
Fiscal Third Quarter and Nine-Month Revenues
SAN DIEGO, CA – August 12, 2019 - LRAD Corporation (NASDAQ: LRAD), a critical communications company, today announced financial results for its fiscal third quarter and first nine months ended June 30, 2019.
Fiscal Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results
● |
Revenues were $8.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, the highest in any fiscal third quarter in the Company’s history. Third quarter fiscal 2018 revenues were $7.5 million. |
|
● |
Gross margin was 51.9% for the third quarter of fiscal 2019, compared with 49.2% in the same period last year. |
|
● |
Net income was $638,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. This represents an increase of $718,000 over the net loss of $80,000, or $ (0.00) per share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2018. |
“A 66% increase in public safety revenues over fiscal Q3 2018 and strong defense shipments fueled record fiscal third quarter revenue results,” said Richard S. Danforth, Chief Executive Officer of LRAD Corporation. “Bookings for the quarter were $10.4 million, an increase of more than $3 million from the third quarter of fiscal 2018.”
First Nine Months Financial Results
● |
Revenues were $29.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2019, an increase of 27% when compared with $23.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2018. |
|
● |
Gross margin was 50.9% for the first nine months of fiscal 2019, compared with 50.8% in the same period last year. |
|
● |
Net income was $2.9 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, in the first nine months of fiscal 2019, an increase of $4.2 million when compared with a net loss of $1.3 million, or $(0.04) per share, for the first nine months of fiscal 2018. |
|
● |
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $11.3 million at June 30, 2019, up from $11.1 million at September 30, 2018. |
“The $29.2 million in revenues is a Company record for any first nine-month fiscal year period and surpasses all previous total fiscal year revenue results,” continued Mr. Danforth. “Bookings for the fiscal first nine-months were strong at $20.9 million, up $1.4 million from the same period a year ago.”
Select Fiscal Third Quarter 2019 Operating and Business Highlights
● |
Received a $4.75 million maintenance agreement for AHDs deployed by the Indian Navy |
|
● |
Announced $1.7 million in defense and homeland security orders |
|
● |
Received $850,000 in international public safety notification and wildlife preservation orders |
|
● |
Announced a $500,000 follow-on Canadian Army order |
|
● |
Presented a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) webinar for emergency managers and demonstrated LRAD’s compatibility with FEMA’s Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) |
|
● |
Installed LRAD public safety notification systems packaged with Genasys software in Mill Valley, CA |
“For the fiscal 4th quarter, robust bookings and backlog have the Company on track for an increase in revenues over fiscal Q4 2018,” Mr. Danforth concluded. “Growth in public safety, emergency warning mass notification and defense orders is expected to drive further increases in bookings and backlog, positioning the Company for continued revenue growth through fiscal 2020 and beyond.”
We include in this press release Non-GAAP operational metric of bookings, which we believe provides helpful information to investors with respect to evaluating the Company’s performance. We consider bookings a leading indicator of future revenues and use this metric to support production planning. Bookings is an internal, operational metric that measures the total dollar value of customer purchase orders executed in a period, regardless of the timing of the related revenue recognition.
