ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
On April 28, 1997, Amerigon Incorporated (the "Company") reported 1997
first quarter results for the period ended March 31, 1997.
Revenues for the first quarter of 1997 decreased by $2,658,000, or
approximately 87%, to $396,000, from $3,054,000 for the quarter ended March
31, 1996. The decrease in revenues is due principally to the fact that the
Company substantially completed work on its major electric vehicle
development contract with Samsung Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., Kihung R&D
Center and its corporate affiliates prior to the first quarter of 1997 and
did not obtain any replacement development contracts during the first quarter
of 1997.
The Company reported a first quarter 1997 net loss of $1,941,000,
or a loss of $.30 per share, compared with a net loss of $620,000, or a loss
of $.15 per share, reported for the year ago first quarter.
