MTI Wireless Edge Ltd
("MTI" or the "Company")
Financial results for the half year ended 30 June 2012
MTI Wireless Edge Ltd., (ticker: MWE) ("MTI" or the "Company"), a market leader in the manufacture of flat panel antennas for fixed wireless broadband, today announces its unaudited results for the six months ended 30 June 2012.
Highlights
·; Q2 revenue of US$3.3m was 3% up on the first quarter
·; Return to profitability with profit from operations of US$19k in Q2 (Q1 2012: loss of US$404k after US$300k litigation provision)
·; Revenue for six months of US$6.49m (H1 2011: US$7.44m)
·; Half year loss of US$385k (H1 2011: US$78k profit)
·; Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities remained strong US$6.75m
Dov Feiner, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"I am pleased to report that the Group has achieved some recovery in activity during the three months to 30 June after the disappointing loss of the first quarter. In particular we have seen strong demand for our high quality antennas for fixed broadband wireless applications where revenue increased by 10 per cent in the second quarter compared with the previous three months, helping the Group to attain an overall 3 per cent revenue increase.
"Commercial activities' revenue was slightly up, quarter on quarter, and the division achieved a profit of US$238k in the latest three months after a reported loss in the previous three which was a direct result of the provision on the IP litigation. Revenue from our Military business remained relatively subdued after the buoyant period of 2011 but there was an encouraging operating improvement with a reduced operating loss against the previous quarter.
"These figures highlight the fact that the cost saving measures we undertook during the second quarter are beginning to bear fruit with a two point rise in gross margins to 35 per cent in the latest quarter which produced a modest overall operating.
"We expect that the second half of 2012 will see further benefits flowing through from those cost reductions and, with further sales progress, the Board is optimistic about the Group's prospects. However, in the current worldwide economic environment, it is right to temper optimism with a good degree of caution."
