Mosaid expects loss, layoffs

Article Abstract:

Mosaid Technologies Inc. of Kanata, Ontario, is expecting to post C$2 million to C$3 million in losses during the first quarter ending Jul. 31, 1998, and lay off nearly one-sixth of its 200 employees. Four analysts polled by First Call Corp. predicted that the company would break even in the first quarter ending Jul. 31, 1998. Mosaid Technologies, which is a supplier of manufacturing testing equipment and provider of memory chip design services, attributed its losses and problems to decreasing demand from the company's Japanese, Taiwanese and South Korean customers.
