Hydro-Space Revamps Five Year Plan Under Cash Crunch
Hydro-Space Systems Corp. outlines a revised five year development plan and says it will not close. CEO Roger J. Pierce reports sales rose to about 1 million in 1969 from 366 thousand in 1968 and cites a needed 500 thousand capital injection to reach break even. The firm missed a planned 1 million stock offering due to tight money markets and cannot accept a 250 thousand government contract without financing. Production continues on contracts including FAA radio transceivers as cash flow remains tight.
