million in 1996.

net income of $645,435 or 20 cents per share on 3,247,766 weighted average

ModaCAD also announced record revenue and earnings for the fourth quarter.

fourth quarter in 1996. Earnings increased more than 600% to $1.06 million, or
18 cents per share (17 cents per share fully diluted) from $165,883 or 5 cents
per share in 1996.
“ModaCAD’s year-end and fourth-quarter results represent a strong rebound from
losses reported during the company’s third quarter. The strong fourth-quarter
performance is also beginning to validate the e-commerce strategy on which the
company embarked during the second half of fiscal 1997,” said Joyce Freedman,
ModaCAD’s chief executive officer.
Increased sales primarily resulted from the recognition of revenues associated
with e-commerce and consumer products as well as continued growth from the
company’s CAD and electronic merchandising products.
Additionally, the company continues to report strong balance sheet
information with a cash position in excess of $12 million, stockholders’
equity in excess of $20 million, and a better than 32-to-1 current ratio.
