Mr. Shenping Yin, Chairman and CEO of Recon stated, "It has been a challenging quarter for the oil and gas industry with the plunge in oil and gas prices continuing to put severe pressure on China's already-weak growth momentum, forcing many of our major customers to cut their CAPEX budget and to cancel or delay projects and thus hampering our efforts to carry out business plan. Despite these challenges, revenues increased by 9.8% from the same quarter last year while both gross and operating margins also improved from a year ago, thanks to solid contribution from our automation business as a result of our heightened sales and marketing effort."
Mr. Yin continued, "While we continue to face significant headwinds in the near term, we believe challenges can turn into potential opportunities for us as our competitors also struggle to stay afloat. With relatively light in assets, strong R&D capability, and deep industry connections forged by years of providing a wide range of hardware, software and service solutions to leading SOEs such as Sinopec and Petro China, in our view Recon is well prepared to withstand the challenges ahead."

BEIJING, May 18, 2015
BEIJING, May 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Recon Technology, Ltd. (NASDAQ: RCON), ("Recon" or the "Company"), a leading independent oilfield services provider operating primarily in China, today reported its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2015, which ended March 31, 2015.
Q3 FY2015 Financial Highlights:
Mr. Shenping Yin, Chairman and CEO of Recon stated, "It has been a challenging quarter for the oil and gas industry with the plunge in oil and gas prices continuing to put severe pressure on China's already-weak growth momentum, forcing many of our major customers to cut their CAPEX budget and to cancel or delay projects and thus hampering our efforts to carry out business plan. Despite these challenges, revenues increased by 9.8% from the same quarter last year while both gross and operating margins also improved from a year ago, thanks to solid contribution from our automation business as a result of our heightened sales and marketing effort."
Mr. Yin continued, "While we continue to face significant headwinds in the near term, we believe challenges can turn into potential opportunities for us as our competitors also struggle to stay afloat. With relatively light in assets, strong R&D capability, and deep industry connections forged by years of providing a wide range of hardware, software and service solutions to leading SOEs such as Sinopec and Petro China, in our view Recon is well prepared to withstand the challenges ahead."
