“Cascade Microtech set another quarterly revenue record in the first quarter of 2012 driven by strong demand for both our Engineering and Production Probe products. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2011, Engineering Probe revenue grew 21.6% and Production Probe revenue grew 31.9%, which more than offset the softness in our Systems revenue, which declined 8.5%. This activity led to improved income from operations, cash from operations in excess of $4 million dollars and earnings per share of $0.05,” said Michael Burger, President and CEO. “Posting an all-time revenue record in the first quarter sets a good tone for 2012, as we continue to make progress towards our success model.”
Financial outlook
For the second quarter of 2012, revenue is expected to be in the range of $26.0 million to $29.0 million. GAAP earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $0.02 to $0.06 on a fully-diluted basis, assuming no significant one-time charges or changes in foreign exchange rates.
