COSTA MESA, Calif., Feb. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Irvine Sensors Corporation (Nasdaq: IRSN; Boston Stock Exchange: ISC) today reported operating results for its first quarter of fiscal 2007, the 13 weeks ended December 31, 2006. The current period included consolidation of Optex Systems, Inc., Irvine Sensors' subsidiary acquired December 30, 2005. Total revenues were $8,119,500, up approximately 70% from $4,781,000 for the prior year's first fiscal quarter, the 13 weeks ended January 1, 2006. The current period revenue increase reflected the Optex consolidation, which did not impact revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 since the Optex acquisition did not occur until the end of that quarter. Net loss for the current quarter was $6,427,500, a 471% increase from $1,125,100 net loss of the fiscal 2006 first quarter. The increase in net loss in the current period was largely the result of approximately $4.4 million of non-recurring debt extinguishment loss, most of which was non-cash, which was incurred as a result of Irvine Sensors' restructuring of its bank debt and subordinated convertible notes on December 29, 2006. Absent the debt service and debt restructuring expenses, the loss from operations in the current period was $1,196,500, approximately comparable to the $1,112,600 loss from operations in the prior year's first quarter. The debt restructuring was the primary contributor to an increase in stockholders' equity at December 31, 2006, most of which is a timing effect derived from the valuation of warrants and a beneficial conversion feature in the Company's convertible notes. Irvine Sensors' CEO John Carson and CFO John Stuart will host a web cast conference call to discuss the fiscal 2007 first quarter results on Monday, February 26, 2007 at 8:30 AM Pacific Time.
