FRMO Corp. Announces Results for Fiscal 2012
Extends invitation to attend Annual Meeting in NYC August 28
Business Wire
PLEASANTVILLE, N.Y. -- August 08, 2012
FRMO Corp. (FRMO-OTC-PINK), has issued its audited Annual Report for its
fiscal year ended May 31, 2012.
Financial Highlights
FRMO’s net income was $3.27 million (8.3 cents per share pre and post full
dilution) for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2012. Being that the financials
were GAAP audited and also for a changed fiscal year, income cannot be
presented on a comparable basis to the fiscal February 28, 2011 previous
year results, which were unaudited.
Tangible book value advanced for the eleventh consecutive year (since
inception) to a record $54.26 million ($1.38 per share) vs. $50.92 ($1.30 per
share). Current assets, comprised primarily of cash and equivalents and
investments available for sale, amounted to $59.09 million. Total liabilities
amounted to $5.05 million, the majority being non-current deferred taxes.
Further detail is available in the audited report of the Company’s
Consolidated Financial Statements for the Year Ended May 31, 2012, and for
contextual content in particular, the Letter to Shareholders from Murray
Stahl, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. These, as well as the Proxy
Statement for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, have been filed on the OTC
Markets Group’s Disclosure and News Services (DNS), which may be accessed at
www.otcmarkets.com/stock/FRMO/filings. These documents, as well as research
referred to in the Shareholder Letter, are also available on the FRMO web
site, www.frmocorp.com.
