As expected, reduced government military spending resulted in third party manufacturing revenue decreases in the current quarter and year to date. Company owned products revenue increased in the third quarter of the current year and on a year to date basis due to the addition of revenue from the Company's subsidiary, OceanWaveS GmbH, acquired in the second quarter, which develops and supplies radar-based wave and surface current measurement technology.
The Company's improved EBITDA performance in the third quarter is due primarily to higher gross profit achieved from a larger proportion of revenues coming from higher margin company owned products.
Commenting on the quarter, Fraser Edison, CEO, noted "we are pleased with the improved performance in the third quarter and that activity levels in the company owned products continue to be strong as we progress through the fourth quarter. Our continued emphasis on an active product development program for our Company Owned Products will ensure our role as product leaders in the marketplace and is expected to result in this revenue source becoming an increasing proportion of the Company's revenue base. Efforts to diversify our customer base in the third party manufacturing business have resulted in orders from new customers over the past few months. The addition of new customers and our expectation that activity levels with our current military customer will rebound over the longer term will also help ensure the long-term viability of this revenue stream."
