time inventory write-down of $2.8 million, non-GAAP gross margins increased
2.4% to 26.8%. The inventory reserve is a more conservative business
approach in analyzing inventory;
-- The Company ended the year with a strong balance sheet with cash and
marketable securities totaling more than $3.1 million, a current ratio over
3.73, and no long term debt; and
-- Backlog remains robust at over $16 million.
Financial Highlights for the Fourth Quarter 2008
-- Revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 was a record $8.8
million, a 13% increase over the $7.9 million recorded in the same period
of fiscal 2007;
-- GAAP net loss of $3.6 million or $0.01 per share, compared to a loss
of $0.2 million or $0.00 per share for the same period of fiscal 2007. The

Mehr davon!
Übrigens hatte ich vor diesem Schrott schon vor über 1 Jahr gewarnt, als die noch über 0,30 standen.
Ist der Zusammenbruch jetzt aus, oder gehts weiter?
DAS wäre interessant zu erfahren.
Heute 0,039 - dass es mal so schlimm kommt hätte auch ich nicht gedacht.
Mein Urteil: SCHROTT bleibt SCHROTT.
In diesem Thread selbst wurde der reverse split zum 22.9. angekündigt - aber wenn dann plötzlich nicht mehr gehandelt wird, sind sie natürlich pleite!!
Für alle investierten Leser: APIA siehe A0RADS,, S03761M2035
Ich weiß leider nicht, wie man den vorhandenen Thread "mitnehmen" kann - oder ob wir unter der neuen WKN neu beginnen. Weiß jemand, wie das geht?
