Net revenues decreased 10% sequentially and decreased 13% from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. The sequential decrease is primarily due to decreased sales of our diffusion furnaces, advanced packaging and wafer cleaning equipment, partially offset by increased reflow equipment, parts and services revenue. The decrease from prior year is primarily attributable to lower sales of our high temperature belt furnaces, partially offset by increased revenues from our advanced packaging and reflow equipment.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 our GAAP gross margin increased by $7 million dollars compared to the same prior year period. This is driven by better margin profiles and cost save this year while the fourth quarter of 2023 had $4.6 million intangible asset impairment charge, and the $1.5 million write-down of inventory related to the polishing equipment line. On a sequential basis, GAAP gross margin in our Thermal Processing Solutions segment was positively affected by product mix attributed to increased revenues for parts and services as well as improved material costs. GAAP gross margin in our Semiconductor Fabrication Solutions segment slightly decreased on a sequential basis due primarily to a less favorable product mix of consumables and equipment.
Selling, General & Administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased by approximately $0.6 million on a sequential basis and decreased $2.3 million compared to the prior year period. The sequential increase is due primarily to increased consulting, audit and IT expenses. Compared to the same prior year period, the decrease is due primarily to the $0.5 million intangible asset impairment charge and lower labor and labor-related expenses as a result of our cost reduction initiatives, as well as lower shipping expenses on lower revenues.
Research, Development and Engineering expenses increased $0.3 million sequentially and decreased $1.6 million compared to the same prior year period, with the sequential decrease due primarily to the timing of purchases related to specific projects in both segments, and the decrease from prior year attributable to development efforts in our Semiconductor Fabrication Solutions segment that did not recur.
GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 was $0.5 million, or 4 cents per share. This compares to GAAP net income of $0.4 million, or 3 cents per share, for the preceding quarter and GAAP net loss of $12.0 million, or 85 cents per share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.
Non-GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 was $7,000, or 0 cents per share. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $1.1 million, or 8 cents per share, for the preceding quarter and non-GAAP net loss of $2.5 million, or 18 cents per share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.
Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2024, were $11.1 million, compared to $13.1 million at September 30, 2023. Debt payments during the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $4.0 million, including the previously reported full repayment of our term loan and revolving credit facility. Net cash as of September 30, 2024 was $10.8 million compared to $2.4 million as of September 30, 2023.
In discussing financial results for the three months and year ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 and the three months ended June 30, 2024, in this press release, the Company refers to certain financial measures that are adjusted from the financial results prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). All non-GAAP amounts exclude certain adjustments for stock compensation expense, severance expense, expenses related to the discontinued product line, gain on the sale of our Arizona headquarters, moving expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition expenses, and income tax benefit related to our acquisition of Entrepix, Inc. A tabular reconciliation of financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measures is included at the end of this press release.
Outlook
Operating results can be significantly impacted, positively or negatively, by the timing of orders, system shipments, logistical challenges, and the financial results of semiconductor manufacturers. Additionally, the semiconductor equipment industries can be cyclical and inherently impacted by changes in market demand. Actual results may differ materially in the weeks and months ahead.
For the first fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2024, we expect revenues in the range of $21 - 24 million with adjusted EBITDA nominally positive. Although the near-term outlook for revenue and earnings remains challenging, we remain confident that the future prospects are strong for both our consumables and equipment serving advanced mobility and advanced packaging applications. We took actions during the fiscal year, which will reduce Amtech's structural costs by approximately $7 million annually and better align product pricing with value. These steps should significantly improve results and enhance profitability through market cycles.
A portion of Amtech's results is denominated in Renminbis, a Chinese currency. The outlook provided in this press release is based on an assumed exchange rate between the United States Dollar and the Renminbi. Changes in the value of the Renminbi in relation to the United States Dollar could cause actual results to differ from expectations.
