Nuvolt Corporation Inc. Announces its Quarterly Financial Results
LEVIS, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - July 19, 2010) - Nuvolt Corporation Inc. (« Nuvolt » ) (TSX VENTURE:NCO), announces the filling of its quarterly financial statements, for the quarter ended May 31, 2010.
«The economic recovery has been timid in the agricultural sector» says Mr. Jacques Dion, President and Chief Executive Officer. In the U.S, for the hog sector, the progression of prices is very encouraging for the upcoming months. Businesses are finally generating cash flows, but the sector remains cautious. For the dairy sector, milk prices have come back down and are at the profitability threshold. The context is lackluster for the upcoming months. Things are also difficult in Canada. The hog industry situation, the discussions on the leveling off of government assistance, and the general profitability of the dairy industry have prompted producers to adopt an excessively cautious approach when it comes to purchases.
«Despite everything, the demand for Nuvolt services is growing and sales will follow later. Nuvolt's expertise is known to help equipment and cost management. SmartScan introduction is therefore eagerly awaited» adds Mr. Dion.
Quarterly highlights:
- There was a 37% decline in earnings for the quarter ended on May 31, 2010 as compared to the quarter ended on May 31, 2009. Since the start of the fiscal year, there has been a decline of 46.5% in comparison with the previous year. However, one notes an increase in comparison with the average for the two previous quarters.
