Net loss of ($0.5) million compared to a net loss of ($1.7) million in Q1 2012

2 new significant customers acquired

Backlog of $0.9 million at end of quarter

Additional restructure actions announced in April 2013

Net sales for the first quarter of 2013 were $4.8 million, up 29% compared with $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2012. Net loss in the first quarter of 2013 was ($0.5) million, or ($0.06) per share, compared with net loss of ($1.7) million or ($0.19) per share, in the first quarter of 2012.

The Company-s increase in orders and net sales was primarily due to purchasing by wireless related customers and a new consumer home electronics customer. The sales growth was primarily in the Americas. Orders for the first quarter of 2013 were $4.8 million, up 13%, compared with $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2012.

“During the quarter, we won two significant new customers, one in home electronics and the second an electronics manufacturing service,” stated Anthony Ambrose, President and CEO. “We also had capacity purchases from two large wireless customers to support their new product ramps. We announced several performance enhancements to our FLASHCORE III programming engine to support faster FLASH memory programming performance, and a second generation 3D co-planarity solution for our automotive customers. In April, we have taken further restructure actions to reduce costs and provide the financial flexibility to move development projects forward by deploying the right resources where needed.”

“EBITDA,” Earnings Before Interest [income $18,000], Taxes [$5,000], and Depreciation and Amortization [$179,000], was a loss of $293,000. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure provides meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company-s results and facilitates the comparison of results.
