(COMTEX) B: LOGIC Devices Reports Second Quarter of Fiscal 2002 B: LOGIC Devices Reports Second Quarter of Fiscal 2002 SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 14, 2002 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- LOGIC Devices Incorporated (Nasdaq:LOGC), today reported revenue and earnings for its second quarter of fiscal 2002. Revenues for the fiscal quarter were $1,120,300, a 56% decrease from the $2,539,600 reported in the same quarter of fiscal 2001. The Company's earnings fell from $11,900, or 0.00 per share, for the fiscal 2001 quarter, to a loss of $840,300, or ($0.12) per share, for the fiscal 2002 quarter. "Unfortunately, the deep down cycle in the semiconductor industry is continuing," stated Bill Volz, president of LOGIC. "Commercial orders have been erratic; up some weeks and down in others. Anticipated military orders have not materialized as of this release date. There has been recent news that HDTV may get a boost, as a result of an agreement among cable operators to begin carrying significant high-definition programming. In addition, digital cinema has received considerable attention pending the release of the new Star Wars Episode Two movie. We are hopeful these recent announcements will lift our commercial revenues as the year progresses." "While we continue to focus on new product development, we have implemented additional cost cutting to reduce our cash flow requirements during this period of weak sales. During these difficult times, we believe the previous years' difficult decisions, made to strengthen our balance sheet, have served us well," concluded Volz.
