CARLSBAD, Calif., Feb. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- XENONICS HOLDINGS, INC. today amended financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2006.
The Company has reviewed an existing agreement with a consultant for which 187,500 shares of stock will be issued when earned. The stock has not been issued and both the Company and consultant agree that the shares have not been earned. However, based on accounting literature, the Company has determined that it is appropriate to include in its statement of operations for the period ended December 31, 2005 an expense of approximately $366,000 attributable to 187,500 shares of common stock. That expense was not included in the statement of operations accompanying the February 13, 2006 news release.
For the three months ended December 31, 2005, revenue was $920,000 compared to $749,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2005. The amended net loss for this year's first quarter was $926,000, or $0.06 per share. This compares to net loss of $425,000, or $0.03 per share, for the same period of the prior year.
