VirTra Systems Announces Third Quarter Results
PR Newswire - November 16, 2006 15:45

HOUSTON, Nov 16, 2006 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- VirTra Systems, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: VTSI) today announced unaudited results for the third quarter of its fiscal year ended September 30, 2006.

Total revenue reported for the third quarter was $462,921, up 66% compared to $279,619 for the same period one year ago. Net income for the quarter was $173,351, or $0.00 per share, up from a net loss of ($29,547), or $0.00 per share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2005.

Major General Perry V. Dalby (USA-Retired), VirTra Systems' chief executive officer, commented, "The improved performance this quarter reflects a significant increase in quarterly revenue plus benefits from the recent sale of our Phoenix facility.

"The company received its first order from the United States Marine Corps. The IVR(R) 4G-300 small arms training simulator has already been delivered and is pending final installation. In addition, VirTra Systems received another order from Mexico, making that country second only to the United States in IVR simulator installations, and an increasingly important customer.

"During the third quarter we completed sale of our Phoenix production facility and moved to our new Tempe, Arizona, location. The new facility has over 8,000 square feet of office and production space, an attractive product demonstration showroom, and is conveniently located within minutes of Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.

"Upon return from my duties in Iraq, I took over as the full-time chief executive officer of VirTra Systems in late August. The third quarter also saw Andrew Wells resign from the board of directors after years of dedicated service; subsequently, Major Frank Stanley (USA-Retired), and Michael Kitchen were named to the board.

"We expect this revenue improvement to continue after the majority of our recent sales this fall, now estimated at over $2.5 million, are reflected in subsequent filings," Dalby concluded.
