August 5, 1992
Sun Microsystems Inc. today announced the following financial results
following the end of their fiscal fourth quarter on June 30:
Revenues: $972.2 million (up 3.1% over 4Q91)
Earnings: $ 37.7 million (down 43% over 4Q91)
Earnings/share: 37 cents/share
Results for fiscal 1992 were:
Revenues: $3.59 billion (up 10% over FY91)
Net income: $173.3 million (down 8.9% over FY91)
Earnings/share: $1.71/share
Cash reserves: $1.2 billion (highest ever)
During the fourth quarter, Sun's gross margins were 44% down
from 46% for 4Q91. This was primarily due to price cuts made in
an attempt to boost sales of the older SPARC-2 products. However,
improvements in operating efficiencies offset some of the impact
of the price cuts.
Bookings were at a record level of $1 billion while inventory was
at the lowest level in four years. Sun Microsystems Computer Corporation
shipped a record 56,000 revenue units and SunSoft shipped 78,000
UNIX licenses.
