Cash and cash equivalent as at 31 March 2017, RM17.9 million with RM395,000 borrowings only, translate to 4 cents per share.

Aemulus recorded profit before taxation of RM2.38 million as compared to the profit of RM0.64 million in the immediate preceding quarter, representing an increase of RM1.74million or 277%. 

Aemulus has achieved revenue of RM10.76 million, an increase of 38% or RM2.97 million as compared to the revenue recorded in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year. The increase of the revenue is in line with the growing orders from the enterprise storage, smartphone and tablet market segments. [1-5]

Prospect

There has been a significant demand for Automated Test Equipment (ATE) from our customers in the enterprise storage and smartphone and tablet segments this quarter. The combined revenue from these two market segments is equivalent to 90% of the total revenue. We expect positive demand growth from these two market segments to continue in the subsequent quarters.[1-5]

We started to ramp up the production for AMB4600 ATE to meet the orders from our customers in the enterprise storage segment. The AMB4600 ATE is expected to return as a major revenue contributor to the Group in fiscal year 2017.

Sales from the Far East region during the first half of fiscal year 2017 is lower than the preceding year corresponding period. Nevertheless, we are still up beat of the business potential in this region. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, we expect a double digit revenue growth from the Far East in fiscal year 2017.
