Lattice Announces Third Quarter Financial Results
Company Reports Positive Net Income for the Quarter; Conference Call Today, November 14 at 2:00 p.m. ET
PENNSAUKEN, NJ--(Marketwired - Nov 14, 2013) - Lattice Incorporated (OTCQB: LTTC) ("Lattice" or the "Company"), a provider of advanced information and communications technology solutions to customers globally, announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013.
Third Quarter Financial Highlights:
Revenue increased to $2.2 million
Recurring revenues accounted for 69% of total revenues during the quarter
Positive EBITDA of $226,000
Net income from continuing operations was $61,000
Net income of $49,000
Additional information may be found in the Company's 10-Q filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Third quarter revenue increased 2.4% year-over-year to $2.2 million, compared to $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2012.
Gross margin, as a percentage of revenues, increased to 41.5% from 38.6% for the same period in 2012. Gross margin relationships to revenue were stable with prior periods for both our recurring revenue and wholesaled technology revenue streams. The increase quarter-on-quarter was due to a larger component of total revenues attributable to higher margin technology sales when compared to the prior year. The gross margin for wholesaled technology revenue varies with larger sales orders, but the margins are expected to be in the 60% range on average. Margins from the recurring services component of revenues were consistent with the prior-year period at approximately 30%.
Net income from continuing operations for the second quarter was $61,000 compared to net income of $15,000 for the same period of 2012.
"During the quarter, we continued to build customer depth in our current territories, while gaining market share in new regions," stated Paul Burgess, CEO of Lattice. "One area we are very excited about is our expansion efforts in Canada. Building on our sales momentum, we launched our Canadian operations center late in the quarter to better serve this growing market. While we anticipate significant long-term sales contribution from the Canadian market, we continue to see strong demand for our feature-rich ICON platform from domestic customers as well."
