1/24/2007 - Deer Valley Corporation Releases Fourth Quarter Production Information
TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Deer Valley Corporation, (“Deer Valley” or the “Company”) (OTCBB:DVLY), today advised shareholders that the average daily production rate of approximately 10 floors per day established during the second quarter of 2006 continued, as anticipated, throughout the third and fourth quarters. Steve Lawler, the CFO of the Company’s operating subsidiary, commented, “At $16.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2006, our revenue was 42% above the same quarter last year. The fourth quarter revenue brought our total sales for the year to $65.4 million for the year, an increase of 83% over our revenue for the operating company compared to the preceding year. We do expect to curtail production by approximately 20% in the first and possibly the second quarter of 2007 in response to bad weather, slowing dealer installations, and the generally weak demand for housing in our market area. Despite the challenges that we are forecasting for the first and second quarter, we expect to remain profitable throughout 2007 with revenue and earnings for the total year from the existing plants expected to be consistent with 2006 year end results.”
