Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp. CEO Comments

Commenting on the results, Mr. Jeffrey O’Hara, President and CEO of Tel, stated,

“We are pleased to report a fourth consecutive quarter of profitability as well as record revenues and operating income in the latest quarter. In the latest quarter, the Company’s cash balances increased to almost $800k despite continued reductions in accounts payable and long-term debt. Management believes that our operating results going forward will continue to benefit from increased volume and the shipment of more of the higher priced CRAFT units, as well as from the full production release of the TS-4530A SETS which are expected to begin shipping in January 2016.”

“With backlog at the end of the second quarter now at $19.7 million, the Company is actively working both domestic and overseas opportunities. The untapped Mode 5 market is significant, and the Company has already sold Mode 5 test equipment to 18 different foreign countries, and we expect a longer term international growth opportunity as customers look to comply with the January 1, 2020 mandate for Mode 5 installation. The Company also continues to invest in new product development with the TR-36 Nav/Comm test set being the first product to be released from these efforts. We are also actively working on next generation test sets for both commercial and military market that we believe will be extremely competitive and will expand our core markets. We also continue to investigate opportunities in other markets based upon core competencies in RF, Digital Design and Test Solutions, and we are excited about fiscal year 2016 and beyond.”  Business Wire
