MGM Wireless boosts revenue 171% in December half
Revenue for the quarter increased 72% to $535,000 compared to previous corresponding period of $310.540 but a decrease of 31% from $780.000 in the September 2005 quarter. The quarter's sales included one further licensee establishment fee. Excluding the licensee establishment fee, the company achieved solid growth in all revenue streams including new customer sales.
The company is pleased to report revenues for the 6 months to 31 December 2005 increased by 171% to $1,292,000, compared to previous corresponding period of $476,487 and an improvement of 106% from $628,313 for the 6 month period to 30 June 2005.
Significantly, by achieving year-to-date revenues of $1,292,000 the company has already exceeded total 2004/5 annual revenues of $1,079,960. The company expects to report its first positive EBITDA (unaudited) of approximately $100,000 for this halfyear period.
The company notes that the coming 31 March quarter is historically weaker due to school summer holiday closures.
Working capital improved by 2% to $812,000 as compared to $793,517 for the same period a vear ago, and a decrease of 8% from $887,000 last quarter.
Cash holdings decreased 24% to $507,000 from $670,000 for the same period a vear ago, and a decrease of 31% from $735,000 last quarter, primarily due to expenses related to Intellectual Property patents and protection for new products and in preparedness for expansion into new international markets this year.
Shareholders should note that during the corresponding period one year ago, the company completed a share placement resulting in a cash increase of $437,000. meaning direct operating comparisons to 12 months ago are difficult.
