Pro Dex Inc ( NASDAQ: PDEX): Quarterly earnings drive stock move !!

Pro Dex Inc ( NASDAQ: PDEX ) announced record quarterly and nine monthly results with operating income rose 171 % and revenue for the quarter ended march 2011 was up 24 % from the corresponding quarter of 2010. Stock of the company jumped more than 50 %, touched 52 week high to $4.03 and trading a little off from intraday high. It will definitely a break out but we won't advise buy positions at current level, rather wait for a stock to come down a little ( buy on dips ) and then initiate buy positions for trading purpose or investment purpose.



Below is the transcript for earnings :

Sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 were $7.6 million, 24% higher than sales of $6.2 million for the corresponding quarter in 2010. For the nine months ended March 31, 2011, sales were $19.6 million, 12% higher than sales of $17.5 million for the corresponding period in 2010. These results for both the quarter and the nine-month periods were due primarily to increases in sales of the Company's medical device products to its two largest customers, with the nine-month period also benefitting from growth in sales of the Company's motion control products.



Operating income was $1.1 million for the quarter, a 177% improvement from $409,000 for the corresponding 2010 period. For the nine months ended March 31, 2011, operating income improved 171% to $2.1 million from $778,000 for the corresponding nine-month period in 2010.



Net income for the 2011 quarter was $868,000, or $0.26 per fully-diluted share, which represents a 399% increase from net income of $174,000, or $0.05 per fully-diluted share, for the corresponding 2010 quarter. For the nine months ended March 31, 2011, net income was $1.6 million, an increase of 72% from net income of $937,000 for the corresponding period in 2010.

Gross profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 increased to $2.9 million, a 38% gross profit margin, compared to gross profit of $2.3 million, a 37% gross profit margin, for the year-ago period. For the nine months ended March 31, 2011, gross profit was $7.5 million, a 38% gross profit margin, compared to gross profit and margin of $6.2 million and 35%, respectively, for the corresponding nine-month period in 2010. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales during both periods was due to a change in mix toward sales of medical device and motion control products at relatively higher margins, and to cost reductions.
