Both the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2003 were profitable. Fourth quarter fiscal 2003 revenues were $4.7 million, resulting in net earnings of $218,000 or $0.02 per share compared to fourth quarter fiscal 2002 revenues of $5.3 million and net earnings of $40,000, or less than $0.01 per share. WEGENER’s eighteen month backlog on August 29, 2003, stood at $12.7 million, up from 10.7 million a year earlier. The total backlog is more than $24 million.

Fiscal year 2003 revenues were $20.1 million with net earnings of $88,000, or less than $0.01 per share compared to fiscal year 2002 revenues of $23.5 million and net earnings of $808,000, or $0.07 per share.

"Our fourth quarter and current revenues are lower than we had anticipated. However, we have now completed initial development for iPump and are ramping our sales and marketing initiatives accordingly," said WEGENER Chairman and CEO Robert A. Placek. "During the fourth quarter we took a number of steps to improve our sales and marketing capabilities. In fiscal 2004, we’ll continue to focus on our long range strategic plan to develop and introduce new products in each of our primary markets – private networks, cable television, and broadcast networks.”

"The markets for our HD, digital television and iPump products are growing rapidly and we expect significant new revenues from these areas during this fiscal year." continued Mr. Placek. "In fact, we've received new orders in these product areas during the first quarter of fiscal year 2004. We continue to investigate additional strategic alliances similar to our private label product relationship with Scientific-Atlanta, Inc. and strategic marketing agreement with Globecomm Systems, Inc."

WEGENER expects the first quarter of its fiscal year 2004 to reflect an operating loss due to delayed product introductions and the long sales cycles in the satellite distribution industry. However, the Company believes it will show significant improvement in the second half of fiscal 2004.
