The Company declared consolidated revenues of USD 44.4 Mn for Q3FY14, compared to USD 46.26 Mn in Q2FY14 and USD 46.31 Mn in Q3FY13. This softening in revenues accompanied by a FOREX loss due to forward covers and subsidiary revaluations, had an impact on the margins of the Company.

Mr. Manu Parpia, Managing Director & CEO, Geometric Limited said, “As anticipated, the unfortunate effect of the holiday period, combined with a decline in revenues from a large US based customer had a adverse impact on us this quarter.
