"Revenue for the 2012 third quarter increased slightly over the same period last year, driven by increased sales in our EMEA region, offset by a decline in revenues from our Asia Pacificregion," said Zee Hakimoglu, President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of ClearOne. "During the quarter, we made solid progress strengthening our balance sheet as evidenced by our increased cash position and lower inventory levels.
"While the technology companies continue to be impacted by global economic headwinds, our business had performed better than many of our industry peers. Looking ahead, we plan to launch several new products over the next three months, which will provide positive momentum as we enter 2013."
At September 30, 2012, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $14.3 million, up $3.9 millionfrom June 30, 2012, and no debt.
Recent Highlights:
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
ClearOne provides non-GAAP financial information in the form of Non-GAAP net income, Adjusted EBITDA and corresponding earnings per share to investors to supplement GAAP financial information. ClearOne believes that excluding certain items from GAAP results allows ClearOne's management to better understand ClearOne's consolidated financial performance from period to period as management does not believe that the excluded items are reflective of underlying operating performance. Non-GAAP net income, Adjusted EBITDA and corresponding earnings per share excludes certain costs and expenses, the details of which are provided in the tables below containing the reconciliation between GAAP and Non-GAAP financial measures. The exclusion of these items in the non-GAAP presentation should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent, or unusual. ClearOne believes non-GAAP financial measures will provide investors with useful information to help them evaluate ClearOne's operating results and projections. This non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income or other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations to the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Other companies, including companies in ClearOne's industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than ClearOne does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes. A detailed reconciliation of Non-GAAP net income to GAAP net income is included with this news release.
