Annual wallix 2015 losses widen ensure development
wallix group reported a wider annual net loss for 2015, blaming lower operating income and higher operating expenses as it embarked on new product development.
The firm said it would spend more than $1 billion this year on developing new products and services, as well as the acquisition of a software company.
The company’s net loss widened to $181.36 million in 2015 from $58 million in 2014 due to higher operating expenses and lower contributions from joint ventures. Its revenues fell 17 percent to $3 billion last year from $3.8 billion in 2014 despite an increase in sales volumes across its divisions during the period under review.

Wallix SA, a French company that makes solar panels and inverters, reported a wider annual net loss for 2015.
The company blamed lower operating income and higher operating expenses for its widened loss. Wallix said it embarked on new product development to increase its competitiveness in the market but this was not enough to offset lower volumes from China which hurt sales growth.
