KOSS down 17% - was down 22% - surprised it hasn't fallen even more considering that bleak earnings report: "The Company had extremely disappointing results in the past fiscal year and in the quarter ended June 30, 2014," Michael J. Koss, President and CEO, told employees here today. "We experienced major setbacks in export sales, particularly in Europe. That drop in sales was significant enough for us to suspend operations in Mexico until sales volumes support enough demand for the products being produced there. In addition, with the changes that need to be made to the Striva Wi-Fi headphone technology, we wrote off the capitalized software costs as well as the related tooling and inventory. These three factors resulted in a significant loss in the fiscal year 2014. Conversely, in the fourth quarter last year, the Company recorded the gain from settling the lawsuit with the former auditors."
