Cards Briefs: U.S. Wireless Data Posts Quarterly Loss

U.S. Wireless Data Inc. reported a loss of $395,270 for the quarter that ended Dec. 31.

The loss - 9 cents a share - was an improvement from the $1.5 million, or 34 cents a share, lost in the December 1994 quarter.

The company reported revenue of $392,084, down from $510,508 in the year-earlier period.

U.S. Wireless continues to focus marketing efforts for its credit card and check verification terminal, the POS-50, on independent sales organizations.

That distribution channel commands a lower selling price for the POS-50, which contributed to the lower net sales in the most recent period on approximately the same volume of units, the company said.
