Trio-Tech International TRT today announced financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2019.
For the three months ended September 30, 2018, revenue decreased 8% to $10,045,000 compared to revenue of $10,945,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2018. Manufacturing revenue decreased to $3,637,000 from $4,765,000 last year, primarily due to lower orders from customers in Suzhou, China and Singapore. Semiconductor testing services revenue decreased to $4,437,000 compared to $4,605,000 last year, primarily reflecting lower orders from customers in Tianjin, China. Distribution revenue increased to $1,944,000 for this year's first quarter from $1,536,000 for the first quarter last year, driven by increased orders from customers in Singapore.
Gross margin for this year's first quarter declined to $2,101,000, or 21% of revenue, compared to $2,760,000, or 25% of revenue, a year earlier.
Operating expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 decreased 11% to $1,978,000, compared to $2,213,000, for the first quarter of fiscal 2018.
Net income attributable to Trio-Tech common shareholders for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was $65,000, or $0.02 per diluted share. This compares to net income attributable to Trio-Tech shareholders for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 of $575,000, or $0.16 per diluted share.
Shareholders' equity at September 30, 2018 was $23,167,000, or $6.42 per outstanding share, compared to $23,501,000, or $6.61 per outstanding share, at June 30, 2018. There were approximately 3,608,055 common shares outstanding at September 30, 2018, compared to 3,553,055 common shares outstanding at June 30, 2018.
CEO Comments
S.W. Yong, Trio-Tech's CEO, said, "Our first quarter results were affected by lower revenue in our manufacturing and testing operations, as well as an unfavorable manufacturing product mix. These factors offset higher revenue and margins in our distribution segment. This year's first quarter results are not indicative of our expectations for Trio-Tech's financial performance for the remainder of the fiscal year. We are optimistic regarding our opportunities for improved results, and we are working diligently with our current and prospective customers to achieve our goals for growth and profitability."
