My point is if the EPS doesn't come in at $.04 like last quarter and instead comes in at $.01 or even a loss, I wouldn't think that makes this stock any less of a buy then it was last quarter. The time to be buying these stocks is while they are growing. By the time they are posting big profits the stock has already been bought up by the investor community.
Sure enough tonight TNXI posted a $.17 loss for the quarter. That loss included a $4.2 million charge for the change in fair market value of warrant and beneficial conversion feature liabilities and $0.8 million of interest expense. On the surface it doesn't look good, and some investors might shy away. But dig a little deeper and you've got a company that continues to grow and one that, at some point in the future will be trading over $1 a share.
Straight from tonight's press release:
Financial Highlights for the First Quarter
-- Revenue was $7.7 million, up 6.4% from $7.2 million in the preceding quarter and up 9.1% from $7.0 million for the first quarter of 2009.
-- Core voice revenue increased 8% to $5.8 million, compared to $5.4 million last quarter.
-- Adjusted EBITDA improved to $517,000, compared to a loss of $318,000 a year ago.
-- Gross profit was $4.5 million, or 58.5% of revenue, compared to $3.9 million, or 55.5% of revenue a year ago.
-- Total operating expenses improved to $5.0 million, compared to $5.1 million a year ago.
-- Operating loss was reduced to $0.5 million for the first quarter as compared to a loss of $1.2 million a year ago.
I think those are some impressive highlights. Positive EBITDA, revenue continues to grow, expenses have been reduced, the list goes on. I haven't seen the actual 10Q I do believe it will be out in the morning. At that time I will glean more details from this quarter.
TNXI remains a Guru Buy and Hold. If anything the recent quarter validates my position on this stock. This is a growth stock, one that is on the cusp of posting consistent profitable quarters. By the time that happens TNXI will be over $1 a share.
BELLEVUE, Wash., May 13, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Telanetix, Inc. (OTCBB:
-- Revenue was $7.7 million, up 6.4% from $7.2 million in the preceding quarter and up 9.1% from $7.0 million for the first quarter of 2009.
-- Core voice revenue increased 8% to $5.8 million, compared to $5.4 million last quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes certain non-GAAP measures provide relevant and meaningful measures by which investors can evaluate the business. EBITDA is defined as earnings or loss before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and the company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for non-cash items including stock-based and warrant compensation, charges related to changes in fair market value of warrant and beneficial conversion feature liabilities. A reconciliation can be found at the end of this release.
"During the quarter we continued to make significant progress, achieving improvement in all of our core key financial metrics including continued sequential revenue growth on reduced operating expenses," said Doug Johnson, Telanetix's CEO. "Our next generation Digital Phone Service (DPS) continues to be a growth driver, posting a strong sequential increase in its installed customer base during the quarter. We look to build on this strong core revenue momentum through the remainder of the year as it helps to offset the expected churn in our legacy revenue due to the departure of two significant legacy customers."
Telanetix reported revenues of $7.7 million for the first quarter of 2010, up 6.4% from $7.2 million in the preceding quarter and up 9.1% from $7.0 million for the first quarter of 2009.
Net loss from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2010 was $5.5 million, or a loss of $0.17 per share, compared to a loss of $1.8 million, or a loss of $0.05 per share, in the first quarter last year. The net loss for the first quarter of 2010 included a $4.2 million charge for the change in fair market value of warrant and beneficial conversion feature liabilities and $0.8 million of interest expense. The net loss for the first quarter of 2009 included $0.9 million of income related to the change in fair market value of warrant and beneficial conversion feature liabilities and $1.4 million of interest expense.
