CEO Comments
S.W. Yong, Trio-Tech's CEO, said, “The 49% growth in first
quarter revenue, and the improvements in gross margin, operating
and net income reflect higher order rates from customers across our
operations, improved operating efficiency, firming prices for
testing services and a favorable product mix. Our backlog remains
strong, as we continue to benefit from our strategy of providing
close-in product and testing services for our major customers. We
remain optimistic regarding opportunities for the remainder of the
fiscal year as we work to finalize a contract with our customer for
testing and burn-in services related to a variety of semiconductor
components with applications in computing and automotive
electronics.”
