Company Also Announced Today That It Has Entered Into Agreements to Sell $4.2 Million of Shares of Its Common Stock in a Registered Offering
SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwire - November 12, 2010) - Overland Storage, Inc. (
"While revenue declined sequentially, we view this in line with the typical first quarter seasonality that has affected our business in prior years," said Eric Kelly, President and CEO of Overland Storage. "In the past quarter, we have expanded our channel footprint and successfully launched several new products. We also recently completed additional financing, and remain confident in the progress we are making to execute on our strategy to grow our branded products revenue as our OEM business declines."
During the first quarter of fiscal 2011, net revenue declined 8.8% from the same period a year ago, due to the expected reduction of revenue in our OEM channel. Our branded net revenue remained relatively constant year over year. Helping to minimize the decline was the successful market acceptance of our new Snap Server® N2000 NAS product, growth of sales in our NEO Series® of tape based products, and our entry into the mid-range SAN market with the SnapSAN™ S2000. Selected first quarter results:
During the first quarter of fiscal 2011, we continued to focus on building revenue momentum through the introduction of new products, increased engagement with value-added resellers, and focused sales and marketing initiatives.
