Business Wire
PFSweb, Inc. (Nasdaq: PFSW), a global provider of integrated
business process outsourcing (BPO) solutions, today announced that
stockholders approved all corporate proposals at the Company's 2005
Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 10. Stockholders
approved the election of one Class II Director, Dr. Neil W. Jacobs,
and the election of two Class III Directors, Mark Layton and
Timothy Murray. Stockholders also approved the proposed amendments
to the Company's 1999 Employee Stock Option Plan, including an
increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance by 2,500,000
shares, and amendments to the Company's Employee Stock Purchase
Plan, including an increase in the number of shares reserved for
issuance by 2,000,000 shares. Stockholders ratified the appointment
of KPMG LLP as the Company's independent auditors for the fiscal
year ending December 31, 2005. In his presentation to shareholders,
Mark Layton, chief executive officer of PFSweb, reviewed the
Company's improved financial performance, including PFSweb's strong
new business activity during 2004 and growth in service fees of 98%
in the 2005 first quarter. Layton also discussed PFSweb's
expectations for improved profitability despite the offsetting
effects of significant costs related to Sarbanes-Oxley
requirements, one-time expenses related to the relocation of its
Memphis distribution facility and incremental investments in sales
and marketing to support future growth. Layton reiterated the
Company's fiscal 2005 financial projections of $8.0 to $9.0 million
in EBITDA and earnings per share of $0.00 to $0.03, or $0.02 to
$0.05 earnings per share excluding the aforementioned one-time
relocation expenses. EBITDA, or Earnings before Interest, Taxes,
Depreciation, and Amortization, is widely used by analysts,
investors and other interested parties. The Company presents EBITDA
because it believes it is useful in evaluating PFSweb's operating
performance compared to that of other companies in its industry, as
the calculation of EBITDA eliminates the effect of financing,
income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending, which
items may vary from different companies for reasons unrelated to
overall operating performance. EBITDA is not a financial measure
determined by generally accepted accounting principles and should
not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of
operating results or to cash flows as a measure of funds available
for discretionary or other liquidity purposes. EBITDA may not be
comparably calculated from one company to another. About PFSweb,

solutions and fulfillment services for Fortune 1000, Global 2000
