Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $16.0 million, a decrease of 10.3% year over year, compared with $17.8 million for the same period in fiscal 2014 and $17.5 million in the preceding quarter.

Gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was 55.1%, compared with 55.8% for the same period in fiscal 2014, and 55.3% in the preceding quarter.  Operating expenses were $9.4 million, including $0.8 million of CEO transition costs, compared with $8.8 million for the same period in fiscal 2014 and $8.8 million in the preceding quarter.

The company reported a net loss of $571 thousand, or $0.06 per share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, compared with net income of $1.1 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, in the same period in fiscal 2014, and net income of $387 thousand, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the preceding quarter.

“I am proud to have joined Concurrent as CEO in the second quarter,” said Derek Elder, the company’s president and CEO.  “Concurrent’s video solutions business is positioned to benefit from the fierce competition in the global market driven by the growth of over-the-top streaming services such as Netflix® and Amazon Prime TV.  We made solid progress in the second quarter, with deployments of our next generation IP-CDN technology and initial trials of our Transparent Caching solution.
