MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Clearfield, Inc. (NASDAQ: CLFD - News):

  • Net Sales:
 

$4.9 million, down 17% from previous year

  • Gross Profit:
 

$1.7 million, down 16% from previous year

  • Gross Margin:
 

34.4%, up from 34.0% in previous year

  • Net Loss:
 

$160,000

  • Net loss per share:
 

$.01

 

Clearfield, Inc. (NASDAQ: CLFD - News) today announced results for the first fiscal quarter of 2010 which ended December 31, 2009. Revenue for the quarter was $4,943,000 in comparison to $5,933,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2008, a decrease of 17 percent. Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 was $1,702,000 in comparison to $2,014,000 for the first quarter for fiscal 2009, a decrease of 16 percent. The Company reported a net loss of $160,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010, or $.01 per share, compared to income of $217,000, or $.02 per share, for the first fiscal quarter of 2009.

Revenue decreased in the broadband and commercial data networks market as well as the contract manufacturing market. Revenue in the broadband and commercial data networks market was $4.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, down from $4.7 million in the previous year’s first quarter. The revenue decrease was primarily associated with decreased demand from a single distributor in the Eastern region of the U.S. Revenue from that distributor accounted for 19% of total quarter revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 in comparison to 25% for the first quarter for fiscal 2009. This decrease overshadowed stable revenue performance in the Midwest and revenue gains in regions of the U.S. where the Company has invested in additional sales personnel in recent quarters. Revenue associated with contract manufacturing, principally copper cable assembles produced to the design specifications of OEM’s outside of the telecommunications market, also contributed to the overall quarterly revenue decline, as revenue to that market was $814,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 down from $1.1 million in the first quarter for fiscal 2009.

In the first fiscal quarter of 2010, gross margins improved nearly one half of one percent to 34.4% from the same quarter of last fiscal year. The year-over-year improvement is the result of material cost improvements and manufacturing efficiency.

Operating expenses were $1.9 million, an increase of 5% from $1.8 million in the same quarter 2009. The Company continues to invest in revenue growth, with the hiring of field sales personnel along with product and market managers.

Comments on Operations

“Our recent revenue performance is indicative of a market that is hampered by economic conditions,” explains Cheri Beranek, President and Chief Executive Officer of Clearfield. “While our largest customers continue to offer kudos to our product line and have told us they remain committed to the return on investment they expect from the FTTH marketplace, the availability of capital and funding to our customers has slowed some major initiatives in some of our historically strongest markets.”

“We are just beginning to see the initial grant and loan awards from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. We are actively tracking both award winners and applications that are still under review. However, grant and loan award recipients are just initiating their Requests For Vendor Quotation and we do not expect them to begin receiving funds until later this spring.”

“During this time, we are continuing to make strategic investments in sales personnel and marketing initiatives to broaden our reach within our markets. In addition, we are aggressively pursuing new products that will allow us to enter new markets and address an expanding range of customer requirements,” concluded Beranek.
