SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Evans & Sutherland Computer Corporation (E&S) (OTCPK: ESCC) today reported financial results in its Form 10-Q filing for the third quarter ended September 27, 2013.
Sales for the third quarter were $8.5 million, compared to sales of $5.4 million for the third quarter 2012. Net profit for the quarter was $1.0 million or $0.09 per share compared to a net loss for the third quarter 2012 of $1.1 million or $0.10 per share. Backlog as of September 27, 2013 was $22.1 million compared to backlog of $15.5 million as of December 31, 2012.
Comments from David H. Bateman, President and Chief Executive Officer: “Sales for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013 were better than the comparable periods of 2012, and the gross profit percentage also improved in 2013 compared to the comparable period in 2012. Customer bookings and the sales backlog remain strong. As a result, we expect 2013 annual results to be close to breakeven. For the longer term we continue to expect variable but reasonably consistent future sales and gross profits from our current product line at annual levels sufficient to cover or exceed operating expenses, excluding the pension expense.”
