AmbiCom Holdings, Inc. Reports Second Quarter Sales and Earnings -- Revenue, Profitability and Working Capital Continues to Increase Substantially
MILPITAS, CA--(Marketwire - March 11, 2013) - AmbiCom Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: ABHI), a leading designer and developer of wireless products for the medical and automotive industries, and a distributor of innovative healthcare products, today announced for the second quarter ending January 31, 2013, a reported revenue of $785,717 with net income of $154,322 or $0.015 per share. This compared to revenue for the same period in 2012 of $458,813 and a net loss at the time of $39,377 or $0.006 per share. For the six months ended January 31, 2013, revenues were $1,632,921 with net income of $300,943 or $0.029 per share, compared to revenues of $607,760 and a net loss of $532,208 or $0.078 per share for the same period one year ago. The significant increase in revenue -- 71% for the three month period year over year and 169% for the six months year over year --- is a result of increased demand by customers for some of the company's newer wireless cards that are being introduced. The company expects revenue from this newer product to continue to increase along with growth from other products being introduced such as the Company's soon-to-be-introduced SDIO card, as well as continued growth from wireless home medical devices for the retail market, including the company's solar ionic toothbrushes.
Gross profit for the quarter increased by 66% from $269,050 in the three months ended January 31, 2012 to $447,892 for the three months ended January 2013. For the six month period the gross profit increase was 154% ($874,551 for 2013 vs. $344,051 for 2013). The increase in gross profit matched the increase in revenue and cost of sales.
Cash and cash equivalents were $693,780 and $249,327 at January 31, 2013 and July 31, 2012, respectively. The company's working capital was a positive balance of $293,314 and a negative balance of $34,483 at January 31, 2013 and July 31, 2012, respectively.
