CATAPULT COMMUNICATIONS REPORTS FULL UNAUDITED
FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL YEAR 2006 OPERATING RESULTS
Mountain View, CA-December 6, 2006-Catapult Communications
Corporation (Nasdaq: CATT) today reported that it has completed its
accounting for income taxes and finalized its unaudited results for
the quarter and year ended September 30, 2006.
As previously announced, revenues for the Company's fourth fiscal quarter
ended September 30, 2006 were $13.8 million, and a pre-tax loss of $1.9
million was recorded after reflecting a $359,000 restructuring charge
as well as non-cash charges totaling $4.2 million for stock option costs,
increased inventory obsolescence and impairment of long-lived assets.
The Company's provision for income taxes in the fourth quarter of fiscal
2006 was $9.2 million primarily as a result of a full valuation allowance
recorded against its U.S. deferred tax assets.
The resulting net loss in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006 was
$11.1 million or $0.76 per diluted share, compared to a net profit of
$2.5 million or $0.17 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of fiscal
2005.
