Second Quarter 2012 Results

Revenue was $17.8 million, compared to $13.2 million for quarter ended June 30, 2011 and $17.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. The 34.4% year-over-year increase was primarily due to increased field mobility solution sales, continued increases in demand from the retail sector and increased professional services revenue.

Gross profit was $3.8 million, compared to $2.7 million for quarter ended June 30, 2011 and $3.8 million for the first quarter of 2012. Gross profit margin was 21.3%, compared to 20.2% for the same period a year ago and 21.1% for the first quarter of 2012. The year-over-year increase is due to the higher gross margins from professional services revenue and improved utilization of professional services resources reflecting the Company's ongoing revenue mix shift towards services and software. Additionally, the Company has continued to focus on cost control and improved utilization and efficiency throughout its operations.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4.8 million, compared to $3.5 million for the same period of 2011, and $3.8 million for the first quarter of 2012. The year-over-year and sequential increases were due to significantly higher professional fees and expenses relating to the acquisition of Apex which totaled approximately $1.2 million.

The operating loss was $1.1 million, compared to an operating loss of $0.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, and an operating loss of $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2012.

Net loss attributable to common shareholders was approximately $1.5 million, or $(0.20) per share, after deducting preferred dividends of approximately $239,000, compared to a net loss attributable to common shareholders of approximately $3.9 million, or $(0.83) per share, after deducting preferred dividends of approximately $27,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2011. 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. Net loss was approximately $0.5 million or $(0.06) per share, after deducting preferred dividends of approximately $222,000 in the first quarter of 2012.

As of June 30, 2012, the Company had approximately $6.0 million available under its revolving credit facilities with its lenders and a cash balance of approximately $0.5 million. In addition, the Company had term loans totaling $5.6 million related to its acquisitions on its balance sheet at June 30, 2012.

Management Commentary

"Continued strong execution and increasing traction of recent product introductions led to 34% revenue growth and gross margin expansion in the second quarter, resulting in adjusted EBITDA of $0.5 million for the quarter. This represents a $1.2 million improvement in adjusted EBITDA over the same period last year. Our six month adjusted EBITDA of $1.0 million, is a $2.8 million improvement over the same period last year. Thus the company has achieved total adjusted EBITDA of approximately $2 million for the last twelve months. These results reflect the strategic shift we have made over the past two years to develop our field mobility solutions and professional services and software divisions," said Nicholas Toms, CEO of DecisionPoint. "Field mobility solutions continue to grow in importance both at DecisionPoint and in the broader economy as more workers become untethered from their desks. The bundled solutions for enterprise and small business applications that were developed and recently introduced in conjunction with our wireless carrier partners, Verizon, Sprint and T-Mobile, are gaining market recognition and increasing sales. Our Grapevine Push-to-Talk solution is a part of many of these bundled solutions and is generating increasing levels of recurring revenue as the installed base grows.

"In Professional Services and Software, the capabilities of the three acquisitions that we have completed over the last 19 months -- CMAC, Apex and Illume Mobile -- together provide a clear competitive differentiator in the marketplace," continued Mr. Toms. "We now offer the full range of mobile solutions to meet the requirements of any enterprise mobility strategy. Revenue from this group is in excess of 35% of total revenue and also generates higher margins than other divisions in the company, leading to improved corporate gross margins. In our Retail division, our tablet-based assisted shopping solution suite for in-store applications has gained retailers' attention as the industry undergoes a long overdue technology upgrade. We are continuing to develop the many opportunities in our pipeline.

"Our second quarter results from operations were approximately breakeven excluding the $1.2 million of professional fees that we incurred related to the acquisition of Apex. With the enhanced capabilities of our Professional Services and Software Group, many of the major investments required to build out our field mobility division now completed and the retail industry capital spending recovery underway, we believe that we are well positioned for continued revenue growth in the second half of 2012, as compared to the second half of 2011 and the first half of 2012," concluded Mr. Toms.
