The increase in gross profit percentage in the year ended September 30, 2018, as compared to the prior year, was a direct result of the sale of products and services with higher profit margins.Net Loss: The Company had a net loss of $21,862,716 or 56% of revenues, for the year ended September 30, 2019 as compared to a net loss of $9,240,409 or 41% of revenues, for the year ended September 30, 2018. Net loss in this period as compared to the previous period was higher due to the discontinued operations of the Environmental Products business and its Electronics Manufacturing Segment. Fiscal year 2019 net loss included a loss of $10,559,963 from discontinued operations and it also included an interest expense of $4,785,506 as compared to fiscal year 2018 which had an income of $1,786,737 from discontinued operations and an interest expense of $800,398.   Cemtrex’s Chairman and CEO, Saagar Govil, commented on the results, “This past year we exited our Environmental businesses which have struggled in recent years due to decreasing government regulations globally. We also exited the Electronics Manufacturing segment because it had low margins and would face strong headwinds for the next several years due to the tepid outlook in Europe. This transition has allowed us to shift away from lower margin, low growth markets into higher growth technology markets with better long-term opportunities. The two restructured and retained segments have better gross and net margins with opportunities for attractive growth.”“We also continue to see increased demand in our Advanced Technologies segment as we focus on security and IoT markets. The market for security technology products is increasing due to global demand for smart, safe cities and security surveillance today and will be a key part of our growth strategy for the next several years. Additionally, our team is focused on enhancing the SmartDesk with a lower price model that enables laptop docking as a primary feature. We will continue to balance our desire for positive operating cash flow with investments in research and development that will create long-term growth.”“Furthermore, we always remain on the lookout for opportunistic and synergistic acquisitions which will have substantial long-term value to Cemtrex.” continued Mr. Govil.About CemtrexCemtrex, Inc.
