SUISUN, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/29/16 -- WPCS International Incorporated (NASDAQ: WPCS), a full-service low-voltage solutions provider in the business of developing, installing and servicing integrated structured cabling, audio-visual and security systems, today announced that on July 28, 2016, it filed its Form 10-K, Annual Report for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2016.
Sebastian Giordano, CEO of WPCS, commented, "Operational results this past year demonstrated that our core business, Suisun City Operations, continues to perform profitably as it generated $1,064,000 in operating income on revenues of $14,555,000."
Financial Results for the Year Ended April 30, 2016
Revenue for the twelve months ended April 30, 2016 decreased $9,863,000, or 40%, to $14,555,000, as compared to $24,418,000, for the same period in 2015. Such decrease was attributable to the completion of one large customer contract during the prior fiscal year.
The Company's loss from continuing operations for the year ended April 30, 2016 was $3,631,000, due primarily from a $4,032,000 operating loss and interest expense of $3,200, which were partially offset by income from a Section 16 settlement of $400,000 and other income of $5,300. This compared to a loss from continuing operations of $6,998,000 for the same period in 2015.
The $4,032,000 loss from operations was comprised of $1,064,000 in operating income from the Suisun City Operations, which was offset by $4,813,000 of corporate overhead expenses, of which $2,439,000 related to non-cash compensation expense recognized on the issuance of employee stock options, a $237,000 loss from the start-up of our Texas Operations and the write-off of the remainder of the previously closed Trenton Operations assets of $47,000.
