Wegener Corporation (PINKSHEETS: WGNR), a provider of products for
television, audio and data distribution networks worldwide, today
announced final operating results for the fourth quarter and fiscal
2012 ended August 31, 2012.
Final operating results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012
were revenues of approximately $1.5 million and a net loss of
approximately $(433,000) or $(0.03) per share, compared to revenues
of approximately $2.5 million and net earnings of approximately
$33,000 or less than $0.01 per share for the same period in fiscal
2011. The final operating results for fiscal 2012 were revenues of
approximately $7.2 million and a net loss of approximately $(2.8)
million or $(0.21) per share, compared to revenues of approximately
$9.1 million and a net loss of approximately $(1.5) million or
$(0.11) per share for the same period in fiscal 2011.
Wegener Corporation's eighteen-month backlog was approximately
$2.7 million at August 31, 2012, compared to $3.5 million at
September 2, 2011. The total multi-year backlog at August 31, 2012,
was approximately $3.2 million compared to $3.5 million at
September 2, 2011. Bookings for the fourth quarter and fiscal 2012
were approximately $3.0 million and $5.8 million compared to
approximately $1.0 million and $6.5 million for the same periods in
fiscal 2011.
The Company previously announced on November 19, 2012 that the
Company's Board of Directors had unanimously determined that
termination of the Company's registration as a public company under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), was in the Company's best interests. The Board reached its
determination after a careful analysis of the benefits of public
registration versus the significant on-going costs of registration,
particularly for smaller registrants such as the Company. The
Company filed a Certification and Notice of Termination of
Registration on Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") on Monday, November 19, 2012. The Company's duty to file
any reports required under Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act with
the SEC was suspended immediately upon that filing. Official
termination of the Company's registration shall take effect 90 days
after such filing, or such shorter period as the SEC may
determine.
The Company's stock, symbol WGNR, continues to trade on the OTC
Pink Sheets and the Company intends to make its unaudited annual
and quarterly financial information publicly available through the
OTC Disclosure & News Service as provided by the OTC Markets
Group. This information will be accessible at the OTC Markets
website: www.otcmarkets.com. The Company will continue issuing
press releases and will have an annual meeting in 2013 and each
year thereafter as required by the Delaware General Corporation
Law. The date and time of the 2013 annual meeting will be announced
in the future. The quarterly conference calls are being
discontinued.
"While we were pleased with the increase in bookings in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to each of the previous
six quarters, our bookings and revenue levels continue to fall
short of projections. We will be reporting an operating loss for
the first quarter of fiscal 2013, ended November 30, 2012," stated
Troy Woodbury, President and CEO of Wegener Corporation.
"Our cash flow continues to be very tight even after significant
reductions in our personnel levels; however, we are continuing to
pursue all booking opportunities as we seek additional financing
for the Company. We believe there are good domestic and
international opportunities for Wegener products and services in
the radio, broadcast television, business networks, and digital
signage markets. Our goals are to focus on business opportunities
and keep a tight control on expenses as we move forward."
