We see this positive outlook continuing into our fourth fiscal quarter and we are excited about our growth prospects for calendar year 2014.

We are seeing the strongest business conditions in the semiconductor test market in more than two years and the PCB tester business is also showing strong momentum, especially with our industry- leading flying probe test technology. While we expect the overall market to show strong growth for the year, we believe our new products and services will result in accelerated growth opportunities for the company.

Our focus now is on growing the business, bringing new products and services to market, providing customers with the highest level of responsiveness and support, and achieving our business model targets."
