PacificNet's (PACT.PK) poor unaudited results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006 show the company is still trying to cope with mobile value-added service regulations in China.
PacificNet posted a loss of US$1.1 million, or 10 cents per share, compared with a profit of US$611,000, or 5 cents per share, during the same period last year.
Third quarter revenues were US$12,875,000 representing an increase of 16.5% as compared to US$11,047,000 from Q3 2005. And quarterly gross profit was US$2,483,000, an increase of 13.1% as compared to US$2,195,000 from Q3 2005.
Tony Tong, Chairman and CEO of PacificNet, said, "Q3 2006 marks the beginning of PacificNet's transformation away from the low-margin telecom business into the new high-margin gaming business,"
PacificNet also said it recorded a charge of $800,000 for liquidated damages related to issuing convertible notes.
Cash and cash equivalents were US$7,439,000 as of September 30, 2006, compared to US$9,579,000 at December 31, 2005 as the Company invested its cash to drive revenue and profit growth.
