IGC Announces Third Quarter Financial Results
Post# of 301275
BETHESDA, Md., Feb. 21, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- India Globalization Capital, Inc. (NYSE MKT:IGC) announced financial results for the third quarter ended December 31, 2016 for the fiscal year that ends March 31, 2017 (the “Q3 2017”).
Revenue for fiscal Q3 2017 was $250,000 compared to $1,085,000 for fiscal Q3 2016. Q3 2017 revenue was primarily generated by renting heavy equipment and managing the construction of the hotel in Genting, Malaysia. Revenue decreased because we curtailed trading activity so Management can focus on developing cannabis-based therapies.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $323,000 for Q3 2017 as compared to $438,000 for Q3 2016. The Q3 2017 SG&A primarily reflects expense reduction initiatives, expenses associated with cannabis-based therapies development, and public company expenses.
In Q3 2017, the Company reported a GAAP net loss of $111,000 and a GAAP EPS loss of $0.00, compared to a GAAP net loss of $403,000 and a GAAP EPS loss of $0.02 for Q3 2016. The improved quarterly performance is attributable to Management’s efforts to focus on developing cannabis-based therapies, and by realization of cumulative previously deferred foreign exchange gains related to Ironman.
For the period ended December 31, 2016, our cash and cash equivalents along with restricted cash was approximately $744,000 and our stockholders’ equity was approximately $7,540,000 compared with approximately $13,948,000 for the period ended March 31, 2016. In Q3 2017 the reduction in stockholders’ equity was attributable to giving up control over Ironman assets. This was previously reported by IGC on Form 8-K on January 6, 2017. On a proforma basis IGC’s stockholders’ equity as of March 31, 2016, was approximately $6,203,000 versus actual as of December 31, 2016 of approximately $7,540,000, an increase of $1,337,000.
“In 2017 our goal is to accelerate the development of our cannabis-based therapy portfolio to support key indications such as Pain, Seizures, Cachexia, PTSD and Depression. In tandem, we expect to initiate pre-clinical trials on IGC-501-Pain, IGC-502-Seizures and IGC-504-Cachexia," stated Ram Mukunda, CEO.
