PHOENIX, Nov 03, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- WEDC | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- White Electronic Designs Corporation (Nasdaq: WEDC | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) reported preliminary, unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2009.

Preliminary net revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 ending September 30, 2009 is approximately $15 million, a 4% increase over the prior year's fourth quarter, but down 7% from the third quarter of fiscal 2009. Preliminary net revenue for fiscal year 2009 is approximately $62 million, an increase of 11% over the prior fiscal year.

Fourth quarter bookings for fiscal 2009 are approximately $9 million, a 47% decrease from the prior year's fourth quarter, and down 50% from the third quarter of fiscal 2009. Fiscal year 2009 preliminary bookings are approximately $64 million, an increase of 14% over the prior fiscal year.

Cash is approximately $64 million as of September 30, 2009, an increase of 21% over the prior year-end balance of approximately $53 million.

Gerald Dinkel, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "In fiscal 2009, White delivered significant year-over-year bookings and revenue gains and closed the year with a very strong cash position. We believe this is an early indicator of the success of our defense-focused electronics strategy established 12 months ago. Fourth quarter orders and revenue for fiscal 2009 were impacted by delays in funding on several projects which remain high defense priorities. While we expect the overall business trend to be up as programs mature in 2010 and beyond, we are likely to encounter continued quarter-to-quarter fluctuations in bookings and revenue as we move to a business base driven more by larger orders on major defense programs."

The Company will issue its complete fiscal 2009 fourth quarter and annual results' press release in early December 2009.
