Balance Sheet
The Company completed the year with $5.2 million in cash compared to $2.3 million as of March 31, 2010. Working capital as of March 31, 2011 was $7.6 million and the Company reported a current ratio of 2.1 to 1.
Richard Kurtz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We have had a very successful year and exceeded our original growth targets of 15% to 25%, by a wide margin. The comparative revenue growth of 52% for the fourth quarter is a validation that we made the correct decision by continuing to invest in our high growth platforms. This was particularly evidenced with our High Speed Optical Receiver product line which grew at 182% on a comparative quarterly basis. We positioned the company for growth during the downturn and are pleased with the success we have had in capturing market share and participating in the explosive growth of the 40G and 100G line-side market roll out. The capital raised earlier this year helped to de-leverage our balance sheet and provided funding to fuel our growth. The success of our various Terahertz application developments for industrial use is also a strong indication of our technology being embraced by various markets. We are looking forward to continuing our growth this coming year.”
