Ottawa-based optical component supplier Enablence Technologies reported second-quarter results that “may cast significant doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern,” according to a release issued late Monday.
Revenue for the three months ending Dec. 31 was $299,000, down from just over $1 million in the same quarter of 2013.
At $1.55 million, operating expenses were down more than $700,000 from the same period a year earlier. That resulted in a $2.4-million net loss, compared with a $3.3-million net loss in the same quarter in 2013.
