NEW YORK, Nov 6 (Reuters) - VA Linux Systems Inc. (NASDAQ NM:LNUX), a developer of software and products for the Linux computer operating system, on Monday said its fiscal first-quarter results would not meet expectations due to slower-than-expected sales growth from new customers "in the dot-com sector."
Fremont, Calif.-based VA Linux said it expects first quarter revenue to grow 10 percent from its fiscal 2000 fourth-quarter and about 275 percent from a year earlier.
The company expects to report a loss excluding non-cash items of 14 cents per share to 16 cents per share, primarily due to lower revenues and increased spending based on higher revenue expectations.
Wall Street analysts had been expecting it to report a loss of 9 cents per share, according to research firm First Call/Thomson Financial.
The company said it expects revenue for the fiscal year 2001 to be approximately 2.25 times fiscal 2000 revenue, representing a reduction from previous guidance of 2.5 times fiscal 2000 revenue. VA Linux still anticipates becoming profitable, excluding non-cash charges, no later than the end of calendar 2001.
