NEW HARTFORD, N.Y.--(Business Wire)--
PAR Technology Corporation (NYSE: PTC), a provider of integrated hardware,
software and service solutions to the restaurant, hotel/resort, and hospitality
industries along with information technology services to the United States
Government, today reported third quarter financial results.
For the third quarter ended September 30, 2009, PAR Technology Corporation
reported revenues of $49.9 million compared to $58 million in the third quarter
2008, a decrease of 13.9%. A net loss of $778,000 was reported for the period
compared to net income of $828,000 in the third quarter last year. The Company
reported diluted loss per share of $0.05 for this past quarter, compared to the
diluted earnings per share of $0.06 reported for the same period a year earlier.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, PAR Technology Corporation
reported revenues of $164.8 million, a 1.5% decrease when compared to the $167.3
million reported one year ago. The Company also reported a net loss of $293,000
in the first nine months of 2009 versus net income of $757,000 for the first
nine months of 2008. Diluted loss per share for the first nine months of 2009
was reported at $0.02, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.05 reported
for the same period in 2008.
"Our third-quarter results reflect the effects of the recession and rising
unemployment rates across the globe. While some economic indicators have shown
improvement, the confidence level of the hospitality market continues to reflect
the uncertainty of the current business environment. Simultaneously, certain
customer accounts continue to have difficulty in obtaining access to capital,"
commented John W. Sammon, Chairman and CEO of PAR Technology. "While we are
disappointed with our most recent quarterly results, we are never-the-less
optimistic about our core business and future opportunities across all of our
business segments. We are actively reducing costs which will not impair our
ability to execute on our long term strategic plans. We are confident that our
business will improve as credit eases and the industry confidence level
improves. As we plan for 2010, we see a greatly improving pipeline of business
which will restore both top line revenue along with earnings and we are
committed to reducing expenses while investing in our future."
