Veramark Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: VERA) has announced financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006. For the second quarter ended June 30, 2006, Veramark reported a net loss of $207,000, or $0.02 per share, on sales of $2,606,000. This compares with a net income of $250,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, on sales of $2,661,000 for the second quarter of 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, Veramark’s net loss of $265,000 or $0.03 per share, on sales of $5,050,000 compares with a net profit of $164,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, on sales of $5,288,000 for the first six months of 2005.
David G. Mazzella, Veramark’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commenting on second quarter results stated, “The change in operating results for the first six months of 2006 versus 2005 is attributable to two things; significant additions to our Sales and Marketing Team resulting in higher operating expenses, and a reduction in maintenance revenues from our discontinued Quantum Series products. Sales of Quantum software were discontinued in April 2003 with the introduction of VeraSMART(R), our next generation enterprise product. We have continued our support of Quantum since that time, but those services are now in the process of being phased out, resulting in lower revenues.
“Since March of this year we have added eight new people to our Sales and Marketing team, bringing the total additions since the beginning of the year to ten. We feel that our product and services offerings are the best in the industry and believe that these additional resources are necessary to increase market penetration and increase future revenues.”
Mr. Mazzella added, “We have seen increased sales from each of our three major revenue categories, eCAS(R), VeraSMART and our Outsourced Solutions Group, including the second quarter signing of a three-year managed services contract with a large beverage and bottling company.”
