Segment Details

Product sales totaled $13.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 compared with $31.1 million the prior-year period. The decrease was due to lower equipment, procurement and construction revenues, and lower sales in Asia.

Service agreements and license revenues were $4.5 million compared with $7.0 million in third-quarter fiscal 2015. The decrease was due to fewer service module replacements.

Advanced Technologies contract revenues totaled $3.5 million in the quarter compared with $3.2 million a year ago.
