Fiscal year revenue increased 4.8% year-over-year to $2.2 million, compared to $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2012. Included in the overall increase was an increase in recurring service revenue of $0.2 million or 16.2% combined with a 13.4% decrease in wholesaled technology revenues of $0.1 million.
"Our communications business continues to grow, driven by new installations and the addition of recurring revenue streams," stated Paul Burgess, CEO of Lattice. "Due to accretion of revenues and continued growth in our communication services, we were EBITDA-positive for the quarter and anticipate turning a bottom-line profit in the current quarter."
Mr. Burgess continued, "The sale of certain Department of Defense assets will enable us to focus more strongly on our fast-growing communications business. We recently began implementing our new cloud-based communications technology, which will cause revenues to accelerate in the second half of the year. With our ongoing domestic and international expansion, we are well-positioned for substantial shareholder value improvement going forward."
