As of June 30, 2011, ZST had cash and cash equivalents totaling $50.2 million compared to $40.2 million as of March 31, 2011.
The company attributes the solid quarterly growth to strong sales of its commercial GPS fleet management products and services, as well as to the continued expansion of its cable TV-related business. Henry Ngan, CFO of ZST, emphasized growing demand for GPS-related products and said the company plans on delivering continued growth in the second half of 2011.
“We delivered a strong financial performance in the second quarter with year-over-year revenue increases across all three of our product segments. We believe that the underlying demand for our products and services remains healthy, and we are especially pleased with the rapid growth of our commercial GPS segment,” Ngan stated in the press release. “While gross profit margin declined slightly in the quarter due to the change in sales mix of our IPTV products, we nevertheless maintained a healthy profit margin level thanks to the high-margin profile of our commercial GPS products and services. We further strengthened our balance sheet in the second quarter, and we believe that we are well-positioned to fund our continued growth. We enter the second half of the year on a strong footing and maintain our commitment to increasing long-term shareholder value.”
For the full year 2011, ZST reiterates its estimates that revenues will range between $160 million and $175 million with net income ranging between $28 million and $30 million.
