Pro-Dex, Inc. Announces Fiscal Year 2010 Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Results
IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- PRO-DEX, INC. (Nasdaq: PDEX) today announced financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter and full-year ending June 30, 2010.
Sales for the full fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 increased 10% to $23.2 million compared to $21.1 million in fiscal year 2009, driven by medical products sales to our largest two customers that were up by 30% compared to the previous year. Sales for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2010 increased 2% to $5.7 million compared to $5.6 million reported for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. Operating income before recognition of impairments to goodwill and property value reductions was $1.2 million for the full year of fiscal 2010 compared to a loss of $495 thousand for fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. Operating Income before the recognition of impairments to goodwill and real property increased 24% to $296 thousand for the fourth quarter compared to $239 thousand in the same period of the prior year. Impairments and real property value reductions amounted to $4.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, $4.4 million for the full 2010 fiscal year, $0 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 and $997 thousand for the full fiscal year of 2009.
The net loss for the full fiscal year 2010 was $2,968,000 or $0.92 per share compared to net loss for the full fiscal year 2009 of $2,845,000 or $0.88 per share. The net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010 was $3,905,000 or $1.20 per share (based on 3.2 million shares) compared to net income of $202,000 or $0.06 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2009 (based on 3.2 million shares).
Gross profit for the full 2010 fiscal year was $8.4 million, a 36% gross profit margin, compared to gross profit of $6.7 million or 32% gross profit margin, for the year-ago period. For the full year, margins benefited from higher volumes of our more profitable medical and motion control products. Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 increased to $2.2 million, a 38% gross profit margin, compared to gross profit of $1.9 million or 35% gross profit margin in last year's fourth quarter, as a result of higher sales levels in the motion control business.
There were $4.4 million of non-cash impairment and real property value reduction charges in fiscal year 2010. Impairments recognized consisted of $140,000 from the remaining IntraFlow patent (in the second quarter), $1.9 million from the Astromec business goodwill, and $1.1 million from Micro Motors goodwill (both in the fourth quarter). In addition, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 we recognized a $1.3 million reduction in the value of the real property used at our Astromec operation in Carson City, Nevada. In the third quarter of fiscal year 2009 we recognized $997 thousand of impairment charges associated with the IntraFlow patent. Following the recognition of these items, our balance sheet has no remaining intangible assets.
Mark Murphy, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Fiscal 2010 was an encouraging year for Pro-Dex, as we grew the top line and returned to profitable operations on a pre-impairment basis. I recognize the disappointment of another year of significant write-offs, and know that it detracts from our strong operating performance during fiscal year 2010. However, focusing on our fundamental operating results excluding these charges, our sales increased by 10% over last year, our gross margins improved by 4 percentage points from 32% to 36%, and our operating expenses remained stable at last year's reduced levels, all resulting in an operating profit of $1.2 million. In fiscal year 2010, we generated $3.2 million in operating cash, the highest level achieved in the last 10 years, after generating $1.7 million in fiscal year 2009 and $2.0 million in fiscal year 2008. As a fundamental operating business, Pro-Dex has again produced solid results."
During both the fourth quarter and the entire fiscal year 2010, we continued to strengthen the balance sheet. In Q4, we generated an additional $570,000 of cash from operations and, for all of fiscal year 2010, we generated $3.2 million in cash from operations. The full-year cash generation includes $549,000 in cash received in the third quarter for collection of a claim for federal income taxes due to enhanced net operating loss carryback rules implemented by the IRS in 2009. At June 30, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3,794,000 compared to cash and cash equivalents of $1,124,000 as of June 30, 2009. The Company had net cash of $899,000 compared to net debt of $2.2 million at June 30, 2009, a $3.1 million total improvement.
