Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $261.3 million, a 9% decrease compared to $286.5 million for the third quarter of 2015, and 24% lower compared to $346.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2014.

For the full year 2015, revenue of $1.17 billion decreased 17% compared to $1.41 billion for 2014.
