"We are pleased to report first quarter revenue of $2,239,000, down 0.2% from the prior-year period," said David L. Klenk, Electro-Sensors' president. "The decrease was driven primarily by reduced sales of HazardPRO(TM) wireless product sales, partially offset by an increase in sales of wired sensor products."
