Fort Lauderdale, Florida-based Encore Computer Corp gave only second quarter figures, showing a net loss of $10.9m, down from $26.0m last time, on sales of $22.3m, flat with last year: Kenneth Fisher, chairman and chief executive pointed out that compared to last year, we have reduced our operating loss on flat revenues, signalling a more efficient operation – on a quarter to quarter basis revenues are up but costs associated with launching our new storage products are also up; the second quarter brought the highest quarterly orders in the company’s history which leads it to expect increases in revenues during the third and fourth quarters as shipments of the new Infinity storage products to Amdahl Corp begin.
