Operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 were as follows:
"Cascade Microtech posted continued good financial results in the third quarter of 2012 with revenue in-line with guidance, and earnings per share at the top end of our guidance at $0.10. This level of profitability was achieved after we increased our investments in R&D for our new product development, and we are on track to announce our third new product, with prototyping planned for completion in the fourth quarter. 2012 has shown a marked improvement over 2011 for Cascade Microtech, and we expect this to continue through Q4," said Michael Burger, President and CEO.
