PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:
InfoVista (Paris:IFV) (Euronext: IFV, ISIN: FR0004031649), a global leader of service performance assurance, today announced financial results for its first quarter ended September 30, 2011.
Total revenues were €9.6 million for the first quarter, compared to €10.9 million in the comparable quarter last year. Operating income was €0.2 million or 2% margin for the quarter, compared to €0.4 million a year ago. Net income reached €0.3 million for the quarter, which is stable from the same quarter last year.
“The first quarter was a slow start to our fiscal year. Continued delays of customer purchase decisions, especially in EMEA, along with a weaker US dollar negatively impacted our operational performance for the quarter,” said Philippe Ozanian, InfoVista’s CEO. “Although we remain confident in achieving our annual objectives of €47 to 49 million of total revenues and €5.2 to 6.2 million of operating income, we currently see InfoVista reaching the lower end of these ranges. Our second quarter is expected to have moderate revenue growth as compared to last year. As such, we expect to rebound in Q2 with at least 25% growth in our operating income, as compared to a year ago.”
