In September 2008, the Company recognized its first Flash-R(TM) patent portfolio licensing revenues and reported licensing revenues of $10.1 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The timing and amount of patent licensing revenues has a material impact on quarterly results. No patent license revenue was recognized in the first quarter ended June 30, 2009.
Based on its early licensing success, the Company anticipates further legal and licensing activity, additional patent enforcement actions, and additional IP-related revenues this fiscal year. However, there can be no assurance of the timing or amounts of future license revenues. The Company was the first to develop, employ and patent important technology that initiated the use of flash memory in portable products. The Company is asserting that its flash memory-related intellectual property is being infringed through wide use in many of today's popular consumer products.
Gross profit for fiscal Q1 2010 was $103,000 or 46% of revenues, compared to $114,000 or 30% of revenues for Q1 of the prior year. The improved gross profit percentage resulted from higher margin service revenues, compared to very limited product revenues.
Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009, were $656,000, compared to $686,000 for the first quarter of the prior year. The Company reported increased litigation-related legal expenses of $157,000, offset by reductions of $126,000 from reduced staffing.
Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was $570,000 or $(0.00) per share, compared to a net loss of $669,000 or $(0.00) per share for the same period last year. The improvement was the result of reduced operating and other expenses, offset in part by a decline in eVU product revenues.
Commenting on the Company's eVU business, Fred Falk, president and CEO of e.Digital, said, "In spite of difficult market conditions, we are working with airlines on new and follow-on portable IFE orders as well as pursuing non-IFE business. We look forward to showcasing our enhanced eVU entertainment system and meeting with current and prospective customers at the upcoming World Airline Entertainment Association (WAEA) Conference and Exhibition being held in Palm Springs. We also look forward to releasing further business information this quarter."
