Cemtrex, Inc. (CETX) Reports Financial Results for the 2018 Fiscal First Quarter

Total Revenue Increased 10% Year-over-Year to $32.4 Million

Farmingdale, NY – February 14, 2018 – Cemtrex Inc. (Nasdaq: CETX, CETXP, CETXW), a world leading multi-industry technology company reported its first quarter consolidated results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2017.

“We delivered strong topline growth with a 10% increase in total revenue to $32.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. This growth was driven by stronger demand in our electronics manufacturing solutions (EMS) segment which offset a decrease in revenues in our industrial products and services (IPS) segment. We are seeing an overall decline industry wide in the environmental technology market globally.” 

“Fortunately, we have been maintaining a diversification strategy for the last several years and have been focused on investing in our technology related businesses. We have begun an R&D program that is yielding proprietary technology both in hardware and software. We are in the process of developing compelling virtual and augmented reality software applications and content for multiple markets which we expect to release this year.”

We have an exciting roadmap with multiple products in the pipeline as the company evolves its capabilities to capture more value for its shareholders,” concluded Saagar Govil, Chairman and CEO of Cemtrex.
