“We have been steadily restructuring BluMetric to drive our strategic plan, and we are encouraged by the progress evidenced by the positive results of the past five quarters,” Mr. Woeller said in a statement.

When his appointment was first announced, the company said he had the experience and contacts to help the firm grow.
BluMetric released fiscal 2016 first-quarter results earlier this week that showed higher revenue on a year-over-year basis. Net income, however, was $16,000 compared with $141,000 in the same quarter last year.
