Quadlogic Controls Corporation (OTC Markets: QDLC), today announced
its financial results for the years ended February 29, 2012 and February
28, 2011.
Total revenues for the year ended February 29, 2012 were $17.3
million as compared to $15.2 million for the year ended February 28,
2011. The Company reported net income for the year ended February 29,
2012 of $1.8 million, or 10.6% of total revenues. This was an
improvement of approximately $465,000 when compared to net income of
$1.4 million, or 9% of total revenues, for the year ended February 28,
2011.
The Company has been engaged in the business of electricity metering,
monitoring and control since 1982. All Quadlogic metering products
feature the Company’s proprietary robust power line communications
technology. The business consists of three segments. First is the
design, manufacture and sale of the Transmeter® “smart” metering system,
a line of digital, microprocessor-controlled meters that, in
communication with the Quadlogic Transponder, measures and remotely
monitors the time and amount of electricity consumption and other
diagnostics. The second segment supports the first and consists of
technical services including meter reading, customer billing, and system
repair and maintenance. The third segment, the Energy Guard ™ system of
concentrated metering, is sold primarily to utilities in countries where
electricity theft is common. It consists of pole-mounted sealed panels
of meters, remote data concentrators and sub-station based data
collectors capable of remote metering, theft and tamper detection and
remote power disconnect and reconnect. The Company's customers include
real estate development and construction companies, owners and operators
of multi-tenant commercial and residential buildings, distributors and
foreign electric utility companies.
