CSP Inc. Reports Fourth-Quarter Fiscal 2016 Financial Results
LOWELL, MA, January 12, 2017 - CSP Inc. (NASDAQ: CSPI), a provider of IT solutions and high-performance Ethernet products for diverse applications, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 ended September 30, 2016.
The Company also announced that its board of directors has voted to pay its quarterly dividend of $0.11 per share to shareholders of record January 27, 2017 payable February 8, 2017.
Management Comments
“We performed well in fiscal 2016,” said President and Chief Executive Office Victor Dellovo. “Total revenues increased 16%, with High Performance Products up 17%, and Technology Solutions up 15%. In Technology Solutions, we continue to execute our growth strategy and build upon the positive changes we implemented in 2015. We enhanced our managed services portfolio and continued to develop new products in the High Performance Products division to take us into new commercial markets. All while advancing our cross-selling efforts to add more value to our end customer and drive higher sales per transaction. We also added talented sales and engineering personnel across the globe, positioning us to better capitalize on our many growth opportunities.”
“In the fourth quarter, revenues were down 7%, reflecting short-term softness in the Technology Solutions division due to large orders in Germany that were pushed out until Q1. We reported EPS of $0.14 versus $0.18 a year ago. However, our managed services pipeline in Technology Solutions remains strong, recurring revenue is growing, and our cross-selling strategy has been a great success.”
“In High Performance Products, while the FPGA network adapter product for the financial services market has been slow to gain traction thus far, we have multiple customers that are excited about the product and we hope to build from that customer base in the new fiscal year. Most of our investment resources are now focused on advancing the 10Gb Ethernet adaptors for the network sensors market. We received royalty revenues from two E-2D planes in the quarter. We expect to record royalty revenue from one plane in Q1 with a total of six planes in fiscal 2017.”
“Looking forward, we have created many opportunities for CSP, and we are seeking to continue our momentum in the new fiscal year.”
Financial Results
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, revenue was $25.6 million compared with $27.7 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. For full year fiscal 2016, revenue was $103.4 million compared with $89.3 million for fiscal year 2015.
Exhibit 99.1
Gross margin in Q4 increased to 24.6% from 21.4% in the prior year as a result of higher margin product and service sales. For the full year, gross margin was 24.2% compared with 21.5% for the prior year due to leverage on higher volumes.
Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 was $561,000, or $0.14 per diluted share, compared with net income of $653,000, or $0.18 per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. For the full year fiscal 2016, net income was $2.6 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, compared with net a loss of $210,000, or $0.06 per share, for fiscal year 2015.
Cash and short-term investments increased to $13.1 million from $11.2 million at year end.
