SALT LAKE CITY – EMS provider CirTran Corp. reported revenue of $12.4 million for 2007, up 42% year-over-year during what its president and CEO Iehab J. Hawatmeh called “an investment year.”
CirTran’s gross profit was $3.2 million, down 3% compared to 2006, as a result of higher than expected cost of sales experienced in entering the online marketplace, along with lower margins on startup marketing services, the company said.
For the year, CirTran reported a net loss of $7.2 million, up from 2006’s loss of $2.9 million, which was attributed to increases in selling, general and administrative expenses.

LIVERMORE, CA – Livermore Lab announced plans to layoff up to 535 employees, including scientists and engineers. These involuntary layoffs could start as early as mid-May.
The state-funded lab laid off about 500 temporary and support employees in January, and 215 permanent employees took a buyout in March.
The shedding of employees is a result of increased costs associated with the changeover to private management from the University of California last fall, says the lab.
After the next set of layoffs, the lab will still employ about 6,600.
Manager Lawrence Livermore National Security anticipated about $80 million in increased costs; however, the costs have reached $280 million.
