Management Commentary
“The first quarter of 2011 was our strongest start yet to a calendar year,” said Jim Clishem, president and CEO of Active Power. “While it’s traditionally the slowest quarter of the year, we experienced strong interest and order activity across all geographies and product lines. The quarter was highlighted by a substantial increase in revenues from our continuous power and infrastructure solutions, including a number of large repeat orders from our datacenter and technology-centric customers.”
“We expect these favorable conditions to support our continued growth through 2011 and help us achieve our goal of sustained revenue growth and operating profitability on an annualized basis..”
Outlook
Active Power expects second quarter 2011 revenues between $17 million and $20 million. This would represent an increase between 6% and 25% when compared to second quarter 2010 revenue of $16 million. Second quarter earnings per share is expected to range between $(0.01) and $0.01 cents per share. Changes in cash and investments are expected to be driven by changes in working capital requirements.
