SANTA ANA, Calif., November 23, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- AuraSound Inc., a publicly listed company (OTC BB: ARUZ.OB), last week announced financial results for their fiscal 1st quarter 2012. For the three months period ending September 30, 2011 net revenue was US $15.1 million versus US $11.0 million the same period the prior year, an increase of 38%. After tax net loss for the three months period was US$ 24K, versus a net profit of US $35K for the same period a year ago.
Commenting on the announcement, Mr. Harald Weisshaupt, AuraSound CEO and President, said, "We are happy to have achieved significant year over year revenue growth for the fifth consecutive quarter, with improved sales balance across our product segments and customers. Although we were not able to post a net profit for the quarter, I believe our year over year performance is impressive. We incurred certain one time costs and significant expenses in the ramp of our new factory in Wuhan China, which is an investment we are making that will significantly improve our cost structure long term. Our products continued to receive several very positive independent reviews during the quarter, and we continue to develop exciting new products for launch in early 2012. Despite what continues to be a challenging worldwide economic situation, we remain cautiously optimistic regarding the future of AuraSound."
