Review and Outlook
"We are disappointed with our results for the second quarter and six months ended March 31, 2013," said James N. Jannello, Executive Vice President and Chief Executive Officer. "Revenue for the quarter and year to date was down when compared to last year mainly due to lower ocean and air shipping activity. While our net loss for the three and six month periods improved from the prior year, we still reported operating losses from continuing operations for both the three and six month 2013 periods. We are focused on returning our continuing core operations to profitability."
Jannello concluded, "Looking ahead, and in the very short term, we are working to raise additional capital in order to stabilize and grow the transportation logistics segment to profitability."
