Business Wire, May 9, 2007
Sales for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2007 Increased to $14.1 Million
PARSIPPANY, N.J. -- Wireless Telecom Group, Inc. (AMEX: WTT) announced today results for the three months ended March 31, 2007.
The Company reported net sales of $14,129,000, compared to $13,823,000 for the same period in 2006.
Net income was $663,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared with $1,017,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, for the prior year. The change in net income reflects the decision to increase R&D spending in 2007, in order to expand the number of products concurrently in development. R&D expense was $2,039,000, compared to $1,617,000 for the prior year.
Cash and cash equivalents were $9,958,000 at March 31, 2007, compared to $15,683,000 at December 31, 2006. In January, as previously reported, the Company repaid short-term debt of $5,372,000.
Monty Johnson, CEO of Wireless Telecom Group, Inc., stated, "Our results for the first quarter were on plan with our expectations, driven by strong sales of our Willtek mobile terminal test, Boonton power meter and Microlab in-building wireless products. We continue to see demand for our solutions, as orders outpaced shipments.
We are pleased with our consistent financial performance over the past several quarters, with each of our four product units now generating positive operational cash flow. This has enabled us to both reduce our short-term debt and confidently increase investment in our business in support of exciting global market opportunities. These increased investments are primarily in strategic product development, to further position us for emerging market initiatives such as the planned 3G wireless deployment in China. We will be announcing important new products throughout 2007 and 2008.
As was the case in 2006, Asia is the home of our largest customer for the first quarter in terms of revenue to our company. We remain confident that our momentum in the region will continue to grow. We plan to continue our strategic pursuit of business there, especially related to the on-going expansion of mobile networks and the use across that region of advanced wireless technologies."
