IMP Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 1999 Results
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 10, 1999--IMP, Inc. (Nasdaq:IMPXD) today announced its financial results for the third fiscal quarter, ending Dec. 27, 1998, of the 1999 fiscal year.
Net revenue for the third fiscal quarter of 1999 was $9.8 million as compared to $6.7 million in the prior quarter and $9.4 million for the same period last year. The net loss for the quarter was $188,000, or $.07 per share, compared to a loss of $3.3 million, or $1.20 per share in the prior quarter, and a loss of $1.1 million, or $.40 per share for the same period last year.
All per share results are calculated on the post-one-for-ten reverse stock split basis that was effective after the close of business on Jan. 12, 1999.
"A 45% increase in revenue over the prior quarter allowed IMP to approach the financial breakeven point for the first time since the Company restructured its operations in fiscal 1997. This was aided by a high gross margin contribution from non-recurring process license fee revenues," said Phil Ferguson, president and CEO.
"Orders received to date for shipment in the fourth fiscal quarter are ahead of those received at the same time for last quarter. We have limited visibility into demand for the first quarter and beyond as many customers continue to order only to meet their immediate needs."
At the end of the quarter, the company's cash position remained low. The company has recently completed an equity financing of approximately $2.4 million and continues to take measures to conserve its cash and is working with financial institutions to restructure its debt. In addition, the company continues to evaluate possible strategic options for the company's future.
