Warwick, RI: Network Six, Inc. (NASDAQ:NWSS) reported contract revenue earned
for the quarter ending September 30, 1999 of $2,575,192, down 3%, or $87,411,
from $2,662,603 the same period a year ago. Net income for the period was
$149,727, or $0.09 per share, down $148,409 from the same period a year ago
when the Company reported net income of $298,136, or $.28 per share.
Contract revenue earned for the nine months ending September 30, 1999 was
$7,813,958 down $323,958, or 4%, from $8,137,916 the same period a year ago.
Net loss for the period was $1,305,315, or $1.98 per share, down $2,053,714
from the same period a year ago when the Company reported net income of
$748,399, or $.66 per share. These figures include a one-time pre-tax charge
of approximately $3.2 million ($1.9 million after-tax) related to the Company
settling its long-standing litigation with the State of Hawaii. Without the
Hawaii settlement charge, net income for the first nine months would have been
$568,917 or $.42 per share.
Kenneth C. Kirsch, President and CEO commented, "Earlier in the year, we made a
conscious decision to beef up our sales and marketing staff and to pursue
selective markets. This investment continued during the third quarter and we
expect it to continue prospectively as well. With our improved financial
health, we are able to focus our efforts on growing the Company for the
long-term by making investments in product development and selling and
marketing activities that we expect to generate favorable returns for the
Company in the years to come. Although third quarter revenues fell below our
expectations, primarily due to a slowdown in new systems development
activities related to Y2K, we believe that new systems development initiatives
and related spending will re-commence shortly after the beginning of the year."
Dorothy Cipolla, CFO and Treasurer, added, "The Company continues to grow
stronger every day; our cash position has never been higher, our balance sheet
is solid and our credit facility remains untapped. We are well positioned for
growth."
