Commenting on the fiscal 2012 first quarter results, Michael
Burdiek, CalAmp's President and Chief Executive Officer said,
"We're off to a strong start in fiscal 2012. Consolidated revenues
in the latest quarter increased 31% compared to the first quarter
of last year, and our bottom line improved by $3 million. Both our
wireless datacom and satellite businesses contributed to the
year-over-year revenue growth. We continue to see strong demand for
our mobile resource management (MRM) products and services from the
local fleet management, vehicle finance, asset tracking and stolen
vehicle recovery markets. We also experienced a solid quarter with
our wireless networks products with significant contribution from
an important project in the railroad sector. An uptick in our
satellite business helped revenues of that unit more than double on
a sequential quarter basis and increase 19% year-over-year. We are
on track with our previously announced plans to transition the
satellite business to a more variable cost model and expect these
changes to be fully implemented by the end of our second
quarter."
Mr. Burdiek continued, "With our improving financial
performance, we continue to strengthen our liquidity position and
balance sheet. First quarter net cash provided by operations of
$2.3 million helped reduce our net debt balance by $2.1 million to
$5.6 million at the end of the quarter. These improvements provide
us with added financial flexibility and should further enable our
growth objectives going forward."
Fiscal 2012 First Quarter Results
Total revenue for the fiscal 2012 first quarter was $34.6
million compared to $26.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal
2011 due to higher revenues in the Company's wireless datacom and
satellite segments. Wireless datacom revenue increased 39% to $22.0
million from $15.8 million in the same period last year, while
satellite revenue increased 19% to $12.5 million from $10.5 million
in the same period last year.
Consolidated gross profit for the fiscal 2012 first quarter was
$9.4 million, or a 27.3% gross margin, compared to gross profit of
$6.1 million, or a 23.2% gross margin, for the same period last
year. The increases in gross profit and gross margin percentage in
the latest quarter compared to the fiscal 2011 first quarter were
due primarily to higher wireless datacom revenues.
Results of operations for the fiscal 2012 first quarter as
determined in accordance with GAAP was net income of $0.5 million,
or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $2.5 million,
or $0.09 per diluted share, in the first quarter of last year.
The Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) net income for the fiscal 2012
first quarter was $1.4 million, or $0.05 per diluted share,
compared to Adjusted Basis net loss of $1.6 million, or $0.06 loss
per diluted share, for the same period last year. The Adjusted
Basis net income (loss) excludes intangible asset amortization and
stock-based compensation expense, and includes an income tax
provision or benefit that reflects income taxes paid/payable (or
received/receivable) based on the results of operations for the
quarter. A reconciliation of the GAAP basis pretax income (loss) to
the Adjusted Basis net income (loss) is provided in the table at
the end of this press release.
Liquidity
As of May 31, 2011, the Company had total cash of $4.3 million
and total debt of $9.9 million. Total debt at that date consisted
of $5.4 million drawn under the Company's revolving bank credit
facility and subordinated debt of $4.5 million. The unused
borrowing capacity on the bank revolver was $6.6 million at May 31,
2011. Net cash provided by operating activities during the three
month period ended May 31, 2011 was $2.3 million.
Business Outlook
Commenting on the Company's business outlook, Mr. Burdiek said,
"Based on our latest projections, we expect fiscal 2012 second
quarter consolidated revenues in the range of $31 to $35 million,
with wireless datacom revenues up sequentially and satellite
revenues down from the first quarter. We expect fiscal second
quarter GAAP basis net income in the range of $0.01 to $0.05 per
diluted share. The Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) net income for the
second quarter is expected to be in the range of $0.07 to $0.11 per
diluted share. Our outlook for the second quarter includes revenue
of $3 million generated from the sale of two patents and
restructuring charges associated with winding up the operations of
our French subsidiary."
Mr. Burdiek concluded, "Our pipeline of sales opportunities is
expanding as we execute our global product and marketing strategy.
Based on our current forecast, we continue to expect year-over-year
revenue growth in fiscal 2012 from both our wireless datacom and
satellite businesses, and we continue to expect full year
profitability on a GAAP basis."

NON-GAAP EARNINGS RECONCILIATION
(Unaudited, in thousands except per share amounts)
Non-GAAP Earnings Reconciliation
"GAAP" refers to financial information presented in accordance
with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States.
This press release includes historical non-GAAP financial measures,
as defined in Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission. CalAmp believes that its presentation of
historical non-GAAP financial measures provides useful
supplementary information to investors. The presentation of
historical non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be
considered in isolation from or as a substitute for results
prepared in accordance with GAAP.
In this press release, CalAmp reports the non-GAAP financial
measures of Adjusted Basis Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Basis Net
Income (Loss) Per Diluted Share. CalAmp uses these non-GAAP
financial measures to enhance the investor's overall understanding
of the financial performance and future prospects of CalAmp's core
business activities. Specifically, CalAmp believes that a report of
Adjusted Basis Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Basis Net Income
(Loss) Per Diluted Share provides consistency in its financial
reporting and facilitates the comparison of results of core
business operations between its current and past periods.
The reconciliation of the GAAP Basis Pretax Income (Loss) to
Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) Net Income (Loss) is as follows:
Three Months Ended

2011 2010
---------- ----------
GAAP basis pretax income (loss) $ 529 $ (2,477)
Amortization of intangible assets 352 306
Stock-based compensation expense 532 523
---------- ----------
Pretax income (loss) (non-GAAP basis) 1,413 (1,648)
Income tax provision (non-GAAP basis) (a) (9) -
---------- ----------
Adjusted Basis net income (loss) $ 1,404 $ (1,648)
========== ==========
Adjusted Basis net income (loss) per diluted
share (b) $ 0.05 $ (0.06)
Weighted average common shares outstanding
on diluted basis 28,226 26,982
(a) In order to enhance clarity of the non-GAAP financial measure,
effective with the quarter ended May 31, 2011 the Company changed
its method of calculating the income tax benefit (provision) used
in the Adjusted Basis net income (loss) per diluted share. This
new method was applied retroactively to the comparable period of
the prior year. Under this new method, the non-GAAP income tax
provision now reflects the income taxes paid/payable (or
received/receivable) based on the results of operations for the
quarter. The Company has net operating loss carryforwards to
offset the pre-tax book income for the quarter ended May 31, 2011.
(b) The method previously used to compute Adjusted Basis net income
(loss) per diluted share included a pro forma income tax provision
or benefit computed without giving effect to increases or decreases
in the deferred income tax valuation allowance that are recognized
for GAAP basis financial reporting. Under this previously used
method, Adjusted Basis net income (loss) per diluted share would
have been $0.03 and $(0.04) for the three months ended May 31, 2011
and 2010, respectively.
