Dépèche transmise le 25 octobre 2011 par Business Wire

HAWTHORNE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OSI Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSIS) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

“We are also pleased with the very strong performance in our Optoelectronics and Manufacturing division, as sales jumped 34% over the prior year and operating income grew to $4.9 million, a 44% increase over prior year.”

Deepak Chopra, OSI Systems’ Chairman and CEO, stated, “We had an exceptional first quarter of bookings leading to a record backlog of $413 million at quarter-end, which positions the Company well for continued outstanding sales and earnings growth. Our strong first quarter sales led to solid earnings growth.”

The Company reported revenues of $161.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012, an increase of $32.8 million, or 26%, from the $128.5 million reported for the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $4.8 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3.4 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

As of September 30, 2011, the Company’s backlog was $413 million compared to $304 million as of June 30, 2011, an increase of 36%. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company generated cash flow from operations of $10 million.

Mr. Chopra continued, “Our Security division began fiscal 2012 with a tremendous first quarter and is well-positioned for significant growth. With outstanding first quarter bookings of $185 million, our Security backlog grew to a record $319 million by quarter-end, which is a 59% increase since the beginning of the fiscal year. We had a number of important wins across our diversified product portfolio and customer base. Leading the way was a $98 million contract with the U.S. Army as part of a $248 million Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract.”

Mr. Chopra added, “We are also pleased with the very strong performance in our Optoelectronics and Manufacturing division, as sales jumped 34% over the prior year and operating income grew to $4.9 million, a 44% increase over prior year.”

Mr. Chopra concluded, “The environment for our Healthcare division continues to be challenging. However, despite the difficult economic environment impacting medical equipment sales, we reported sales of $46.5 million during the quarter, a 1% improvement over the prior year. Going forward, with recent product launches, increasing order activity, and newly established long-term contracts with major healthcare Group Purchasing Organizations (GPO’s), we anticipate an acceleration of top line growth in this division.”
