EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., July 23, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NVE Corporation (Nasdaq:NVEC) announced today financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2014.
Total revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 increased 37% to $8.45 million from $6.18 million in the prior-year quarter. The increase was due to a 40% increase in product sales, partially offset by a 48% decrease in contract research and development revenue. Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 increased 57% to $4.04 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, compared to $2.57 million, or $0.53 per share, for the prior-year quarter.
"We are pleased to report record total revenue, product sales, and earnings for the quarter," said NVE President and Chief Executive Officer Daniel A. Baker, Ph.D.
