SRSL Srs Labs, Inc. (MM)

DTS, Inc. (Nasdaq:DTSI) today announced certain preliminary results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012. Revenue is expected to be in the range of $21 to $22 million. The Company additionally expects net income to be significantly impacted by costs associated with its pending acquisition of SRS Labs, Inc. (Nasdaq:SRSL), and by the tax consequences of both the lower revenue and the non-deductibility of certain material acquisition-related expenses.

Second quarter revenue is expected to be below expectations largely as a result of macroeconomic factors that have impacted certain segments of the consumer electronics industry, particularly across DTS' Blu-ray markets.

Although these results are not yet finalized, the Company released these preliminary results in light of the planned purchase of SRS Labs, which is scheduled to close on July 20, 2012.

"While we typically experience a sequential decline in revenue in our second quarter as a result of seasonality in our end markets, global economic uncertainty has contributed to results that are nevertheless below certain estimates," said Jon Kirchner, chairman and CEO of DTS, Inc. "Softness in Blu-ray – including standalone players, PCs and game consoles – was partially offset by significant year-over-year growth in the network-connected markets, which we expect to represent the majority of our business over time. Importantly, the acquisition of SRS Labs will accelerate DTS' expansion in these rapidly growing markets by bringing together our two companies' highly complementary product and technology portfolios, enabling us to provide high-quality audio experiences anytime, anyplace, and on any device," concluded Kirchner.

The above preliminary results are subject to completion of DTS' normal quarter-end accounting procedures, including a review by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

DTS will report its full results for the second quarter, including a conference call with the Company's management team, in early August. At that time, assuming a close of the SRS transaction, management expects to provide its combined business outlook for the remainder of 2012 and certain forecasts for 2013.
