DecisionPoint Systems Reports Second Quarter 2011 Results

Significantly Improved Balance Sheet; Positive Cash Flow From Operations Reached

FOOTHILL RANCH, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 08/23/11 -- DecisionPoint Systems, Inc. (OTCBB: DPSI), a leading enterprise mobility and RFID systems integrator, reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011.

Highlights of Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2011:

  • Completed reverse merger with Comamtech
  • Exchanged $4.0 million of senior notes for convertible preferred stock
  • Initiated the integration of CMAC
  • Improved Professional Services revenue mix
  • Generated $0.2 million in operating cash flow
  • Shareholder's equity improved by $5.1 million as of June 30, 2011 at $2.2 million, versus $(2.9) million as of December 31, 2010 reflecting a major benefit of the Comamtech merger and the senior debt to equity exchange

Revenue in the second quarter of 2011 was $13.2 million compared to $13.3 million in the same period a year ago. Softer revenue in the company's retail division due to certain product availability issues and general economic issues was partially offset by the revenue contribution of CMAC, which was acquired by DecisionPoint on December 31, 2010.

Gross profit in the second quarter of 2011 was $2.7 million, compared to $2.5 million in the same period of 2010. Gross profit margin was 20.2%, compared to 19.0% in the same period a year ago. Reduced costs coupled with improved revenue mix of professional services positively impacted the company's gross profit.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2011 were $3.5 million, compared to $2.5 million in the same period a year ago. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the additional costs and personnel related to the integration of the acquisition of CMAC. Included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2011 were one-time expenses of $0.1 million related to the Comamtech merger and debt conversion.

Loss from operations in the second quarter was $(0.8) million, compared to operating income of $43,000 for the same period a year ago. Net loss for the second quarter of 2011 was $(3.9) million, or $(0.83) per share, compared to a net loss of $(0.9) million, or $(0.27) per share, in the same period a year ago. Included in the net loss for the second quarter of 2011 was a one-time, non-cash expense for debt extinguishment of $(2.6) million.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $26.0 million, compared to $24.4 million in the year ago period. Gross profit was $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Gross profit margin was 19.2%, compared to 18.7% in the same period a year ago. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Net loss for the first six months of 2011 was $(5.5) million, or $(1.23) per share, compared to a net loss of $(2.1) million, or $(0.67) per share, in the same period a year ago. Included in the net loss for the first six months of 2011 was a one-time, non-cash expense for debt extinguishment of $(2.6) million.

"With the completion of both the reverse merger and equity conversion during the quarter, our capital structure has been greatly improved and our equity base strengthened, providing us with a solid foundation from which to pursue our strategic goals," said Nicholas Toms, CEO of DecisionPoint.

"During the second quarter, growth in our field mobility vertical was masked by order delays in our retail division as customers slowed down their approval processes in response to uncertain economic conditions. In addition, revenue growth for the second quarter was held back by temporary equipment shortages and the ongoing transition in CMAC's revenue recognition to accrual accounting from cash accounting," added Toms. "Since the start of the third quarter the equipment shortages have abated and we have begun fulfilling orders held back in the second quarter. We also expect the full benefit of the CMAC acquisition to be realized in the third quarter as we complete the change in revenue recognition.

"Our Grapevine 'Always On' worldwide push-to-talk system continues to gain traction in the marketplace and we're pleased with the pace of recurring revenue generation. Grapevine version 1.2 was released during the second quarter, which builds on the user experience by providing reduced wireless data usage and battery consumption while idle, faster status updates and compatibility with upcoming BlackBerry and Android releases. During the quarter we also released a series of new products including a state-of-the-art product providing a complete long haul trucking management system.

"At the half-way mark of the year, bookings are running ahead of last year and we are rapidly expanding our pipeline of opportunities in the field mobility and logistics verticals where demand for customized enterprise mobile solutions remains strong. As a result we expect to achieve revenue for the seasonally stronger second half of 2011 that is substantially greater than the first half and to remain cash flow positive for the rest of the year. Increasing traction in field mobility along with new product introductions support our conviction that we that we will reach $100 million in revenue and sustained profitability in 2012."
