SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- [ Sunrise Telecom ]® Incorporated (OTC: SRTI) today posted its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2011.

In the quarter ending Sept. 30, 2011, Sunrise Telecom reported revenue of $7.1 million, compared to $6.3 million for the second quarter of 2011 and $7.9 million for the third quarter 2010. EBITDA for the quarter was $(1.9) million. Third quarter net loss was $(2.3) million, or (0.04) per share, compared to $(1.0) million in the third quarter of 2010. The company's efforts to reduce cost of goods resulted in a one-time adjustment to standard cost and contributed to lower margin and an increase in net loss for the reporting quarter.

The company attributed its sequential revenue increase in the third quarter to new orders for its [ RxT Smart Productivity Test Platform ] from Tier-one Service providers and equipment manufacturers. In addition, the company witnessed strong demand for its industry-leading line of [ CM3 series ] and [ AT2500 ] family of advanced RF spectrum analyzers.

"The new customer wins around the globe for the RxT at major service providers is further evidence that our customers value the key features and benefits of our new smart productivity platform," said Bahaa Moukadam, Sunrise Telecom's chief executive officer. "We continue to add new channel partners worldwide, lead in the development of advanced Ethernet activation technology and deliver on our roadmap of new test modules. This will enhance our ability to penetrate growing market segments with our award winning test platforms."

In the third quarter 2011, Sunrise Telecom announced new modules for the RxT platform, including Dual T1 and SHDSL.bis versions targeting Business Services and Mobile Backhaul deployments. In addition, the company launched new capabilities for the CM series of portable cable analyzers, including one-button proof-of-performance and enhanced QAM features, offering new and highly sophisticated RF network analysis and compliance benefits for cable plant operators.

"In spite of the typical challenges associated with third quarter seasonality and defying the historical norm, the company achieved a significant increase in sequential bookings and improved bookings on a year-over-year basis," added Moukadam. "We are also very pleased that our Telecom and Cable test platforms have been recently recognized as among the top test solutions by Broadband Technology Report (BTR) as part of their 2011 Diamond Reviews program."

In the reporting quarter, Sunrise Telecom executed a repurchase of 417,500 shares of common stock in accordance with its recently announced repurchase program covering up to $1.0 million of company stock through June 2012.
