BROOMFIELD, Colo., Nov 20, 2006 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ -- Cardinal Communications, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: CDNC), a diversified provider of bundled digital communications and video-on-demand services, and a specialized developer of residential real estate, reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006.
Cardinal Communications continues its tremendous strides with record third quarter revenue increases of 96 percent to $9.9 million versus revenue of $5.1 million in the third quarter of 2005. Loss from operations was $690 thousand versus a loss from operations of $1.84 million in the third quarter a year ago. Net loss from continuing operations was $894 thousand, or $0.002 per share, versus a net loss from continuing operations of $2.35 million, or $0.009 per share, in the comparable year-ago quarter.
Despite current real estate market trends, our sales increased significantly during the third quarter as compared to the year-ago period. In addition to the revenue increases, our overall operating expenses decreased as compared to the prior year quarter by approximately $1.8mm, representing a 55% reduction. As a percentage of revenue, our operating expense was 15% for the third quarter of 2006 as compared to 64% for the third quarter of 2005. This is a result of the cost reduction actions taken by Cardinal Communications in 2006 and by the significantly increased revenues during the quarter.
Management continues its commitment to increasing revenue, streamlining operations and achieving improved financial performance. We continue to pursue huge strides towards the goal of increasing shareholder value.
