TORONTO, March 27 /CNW/ - Cyberplex Inc. (TSX: CX), one of North
America's leading technology consulting firms, today announced financial
results for the fourth quarter and the year ended December 31, 2005.
Fourth quarter revenue of $1.39 million was lower than the $1.51 million
in revenue from the previous quarter and down from the $2.38 million recorded
during the same period a year ago. The loss for the quarter, before
amortization, interest income, goodwill impairment and various one time
accruals was $340,000, consistent with the loss of $335,000 realized in the
previous quarter and down from the operating profit of $362,000 generated
during the same period a year earlier.
Gross margin for the quarter was 42%, down from 46% generated in the
previous quarter and the largest five accounts in the quarter accounted for
approximately 61% of revenue. During the fourth quarter, 43% of the Company's
revenue was derived from accounts located in the United States.
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $7.24 million, down 22%
from the $9.37 million recorded during 2004. The loss before amortization and
interest income was $628,000 compared with a profit of $1.56 million generated
a year earlier, and the net loss for the year was $1.13 million, or $0.03 per
share.
"2005 was a transitional year for Cyberplex" said Geoffrey Rotstein,
President and CEO of Cyberplex. "Although the second half of the year was
difficult, our balance sheet is strong. With over $5.28 million in cash and
short-term investments, we believe we are in a position to take advantage of
the opportunities that lie ahead. Our focus continues to be on growing the
business profitably, and management is committed to building a stronger
company, both through organic growth and selected acquisitions, that will
deliver value to its shareholders"
