First-Quarter Fiscal 2011 Methode's first-quarter Fiscal 2011 net sales increased $8.5 million, or 9.5 percent, to $98.3 million from $89.8 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2010 notwithstanding the loss of sales to Delphi, which were $7.5 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2010. Net income increased to $4.1 million, or $0.11 per share, in the Fiscal 2011 period compared to breakeven in the same period of Fiscal 2010. No restructuring expenses, a gain of $1.2 million on a life insurance policy, and favorable selling and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower other income and higher tax expenses, contributed to higher net income in the Fiscal 2011 first quarter compared to the same period last year.

Methode recorded no restructuring charges during the Fiscal 2011 first quarter compared to restructuring charges of $3.6 million, before and after-tax, or $0.10 per share, during the Fiscal 2010 first quarter. Excluding restructuring charges, Methode's net income was $3.5 million, or $0.10 per share, in the first quarter of Fiscal 2010.

Consolidated gross margins (including other income) as a percentage of sales decreased to 19.8 percent in the Fiscal 2011 first quarter from 22.6 percent in the comparable period of Fiscal 2010, due in part to the loss of sales to Delphi, higher design and overhead costs in the Company's U.S.-based Automotive and Power Products businesses, as well as lower other income in the Fiscal 2011 period compared to the Fiscal 2010 period relating to lower engineering design fees received in the Company's European Automotive business.

Taipei, Sept. 1 (CNA) The Taiwan-based Institute for Information Industry (III) said Wednesday that it would collaborate with India's Center of Excellence in Wireless and Information Technology (CEWIT) to develop 4G broadband wireless technologies and products.

The III and CEWIT signed a three-year memorandum of understanding (MOU) focusing on R&D in Taipei Wednesday, marking the first cooperation agreement between the institutes, the III said.

The deal aims to help Taiwanese manufacturers become core network equipment suppliers, it said. "With fast-growing India expected to become one of the largest 3G and 4G markets in the world, the proposed R&D cooperation is expected to assist Taiwanese manufactures to step into the giant market early," said C.K. Lee, chief executive officer of the III.

The institutes will start with cooperation in developing 4G relay station technologies, hoping that new communication products enable Taiwan's manufacturers -- mostly focused on OEM businesses -- to earn higher profit margins by making network equipment instead of customer premises equipment, the III said in a press release.
