Quarterly Results Of Operations

Note 14. Quarterly Results of Operations (Unaudited):

The following tables present certain financial information for each of the last eight fiscal quarters. The Company believes that the unaudited information regarding each of these quarters is prepared on the same basis as the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) have been included to present fairly the unaudited quarterly results when read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and the Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K. These quarterly results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future period. Previously reported quarterly amounts have been adjusted for the effects of the discontinued operations described in Note 1.

The quarterly fluctuations in revenue and gross profit are due primarily to fluctuations in the CNS segment. The Company sold substantially all of the assets of CNS in April, 2011. The Company retained a certain major CNS customer relationship and contract. The Company completed the remaining contractually required product shipments under the retained contract in December 2011. In fiscal year 2011, the CNS segment revenue fluctuated by quarter with product mix and units sold. The fiscal third quarter ending December 31 contains seasonality effects in the Westell segment. The Westell segment sells equipment that is installed outdoors and the ordering of such equipment declines during and in advance of the colder months. The third quarter of fiscal year 2012 reflected exaggerated declines in customer purchases from the Westell segment as a result of a variety of factors.
