Conolog Corporation (NASDAQ: CNLG) a provider of digital signal processing and digital security solutions to electric utilities worldwide, reported today its financial results for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2010 and restated financial results for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2009.

Operating Revenues: For the last two years the majority of the Company's sales revenue has been generated from sales of the PDR-2000 and PTR-1500 Teleprotection products. For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2010 we had total product revenue sales of $1,178,673 compared to revenues of $1,485,298 for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2009, a decrease of $306,625 or 20%. The decline in sales revenues can be attributed to (a) a decrease of approximately $273,000 or 83% decline in the PTR-1500 products as customers are switching from old analog technical to digital technology, (b) A 7% decline in the PDR-2000 sales due to a delay in current projects by public utilities companies, (c) Telemetry sales decline of approximately $103,000 or 36% due natural rhythm of our markets, we expect this category to further decline in the coming years, (d) Military sales increased approximately $128,000 due to an unexpected military supply contract for current and next fiscal year.

This decline in our accounts receivable is the of result of lower sales in the last three months of our fiscal year due to a few customers delaying their sales orders until fiscal year 2011.

Our operations have been and will continue to be funded from existing cash balances and private placements of equity. We are dependent on improved operating results and raising additional funds over the next twelve month period. There are no assurances that we will be able to raise additional funding. In the event that we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow or receive proceeds from offerings of debt or equity securities, the Company may be forced to curtail or cease it activities and/or operations.
