Applied Signal Technology, Inc. Announces Third Quarter Operating Results.SUNNYVALE Sunnyvale, city (1990 pop. 117,229), Santa Clara co., W Calif., near San Francisco; settled 1849, inc. 1912. A city in Silicon Valley, its many manufactures include semiconductors; machinery and instruments; electrical, electronic, and aerospace products; , Calif. -- Applied Signal Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq:APSG APSG Antisymmetrized Product of Separated Geminals ) announced its operating results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2005 ended July July: see month. 29, 2005. Operating Results Revenues for the third quarter of fiscal year 2005 were $36,283,000 compared with revenues of $38,275,000 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2004. Revenues for the first nine months of fiscal year 2005 were $98,446,000 compared to revenues of $103,380,000 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2004. Revenues declined for the third quarter and the first nine months of fiscal year 2005 compared to the same periods in fiscal year 2004 due to fewer product sales. Operating income Operating Income The profit realized from a business' own operations. Notes: This would not include income from things such as investments in other firms. Also referred to as operating profit or recurring profit. for the third quarter of fiscal year 2005 was $2,752,000 compared with operating income of $5,602,000 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2004. Operating income for the first nine months of fiscal year 2005 was $9,751,000 compared with operating income of $13,490,000 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2004. The decrease in operating income is due primarily to a decline in program profitability during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2005 compared to the same period of fiscal 2004. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal year 2005 was $1,784,000 or $0.15 per diluted di·lute tr.v. di·lut·ed, di·lut·ing, di·lutes 1.

Net income for the first nine months of fiscal year 2005 was $6,138,000 or $0.52 per diluted share compared to net income of $9,552,000 or $0.83 per diluted share for the first nine months of fiscal year 2004. The decline in net income during the first nine months of fiscal 2005 when compared to the same period of fiscal 2004 is due, in part, to a decline in program profitability, and in part, to a significantly higher tax rate in fiscal year 2005. Our effective tax rate through the first nine months of fiscal year 2005 is 41% compared to 31% for the same period of fiscal year 2004. New orders received during the third quarter of fiscal year 2005 were $22,672,000 compared to new orders received during the third quarter of fiscal year 2004 of $35,417,000. We believe the decline in new orders is due to the typical fluctuations experienced in the U.S. Government procurement Government procurement, also called public tendering, is the procurement of goods and services on behalf of a public authority, such as a government agency. With 10 to 15% of GDP in developed countries, and up to 20% in developing countries, government procurement accounts process. Order levels for the first nine months of fiscal year 2005 were $55,082,000 compared to order levels of $128,602,000 for the same period of fiscal year 2004. The level of new orders for the first nine months of fiscal year 2004 were significantly higher than the same period in fiscal year 2005 primarily as a result of a major modification resulting in an increase to our largest contract of approximately ap·prox·i·mate adj. 1.

Mr. Yancey concluded his remarks, "I am very encouraged that we received a new contract award of approximately $5 million in our Sensor Signal Processing Group. This contract is with a U.S. Government organization that is new to APSG and is one that will likely invest to take the technology into fielded solutions. We are also increasing our research and development investments in some of the other areas of phenomenological processing that we believe have marketplace opportunities. I believe these investments will result in returns that can be very supportive supportive adjective Pertaining to a Pt management philosophy in which only the Sx of a particular condition are treated; supportive measures are often taken when no specific and/or effective therapy is available or accessible–eg, viral meningitis, or of our growth in the future."
