Advanced Photonix Reports 2nd Q 2011 Results

Advanced Photonix a vertically integrated optoelectronic semiconductor manufacturer of optoelectronic solutions, high-speed optical receivers and terahertz instrumentation, has announced that its second quarter 2011 revenue increased by 29% and EBITDA improved by $675,000 compared to the prior year's second quarter results.

"The second quarter continued to fuel our strong return to growth. Year-to-date results are ahead of the raised guidance we gave in August of 20% year over year growth. Based on the performance of the first half and the outlook for the second half we are raising our annual guidance to the low end of a 25% increase in sales for the year," said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Richard (Rick) Kurtz. "We expect a strong second half of the year based on: the increase in demand for our HSOR products; a rebounding of our Optosolutions product platform; and the increased interest in our terahertz product platform, as demonstrated by the recently announced contracts to assist the Department of Homeland Security with the detection of concealed threats through the utilization of the technology in our T-Ray® 4000." The Company also filed today a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC. When declared effective by the SEC, the shelf registration statement will allow the Company to sell up to $7 million of various securities. The Company has no commitment to sell any of its securities under this registration statement, and the terms of any future sale or issuance of securities under this registration statement will be set forth in a prospectus supplement that will be filed with the SEC in connection with any such sales or issuance.
