HACKENSACK, N.J., Nov. 3, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- I.D. Systems, Inc.
(Nasdaq:IDSY) today announced its financial results for the third quarter of
2009. Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $1.8 million,
compared to $9.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Gross
margin was 48.8%, compared to 51.1% for the third quarter of 2008. Net loss for
the quarter was $3.0 million, or ($0.27) per basic and diluted share, compared
to net income of $619,000, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share, for the third
quarter of 2008.
Non-GAAP net loss for the quarter was $2.5 million, or ($0.22) per basic and
diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $1.3 million, or $0.12 per
basic share and $0.11 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2008. Non-GAAP
results were calculated by adjusting GAAP net income (loss) for the impact of
stock-based compensation, which was $559,000 for the third quarter of 2009 and
$665,000 for the third quarter of 2008. A table entitled "Reconciliation of GAAP
to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" is included in this press release.
Jeffrey Jagid, I.D. Systems' chairman and chief executive officer, said,
"Cautionary technology spending in the industrial marketplace continued to
impact our ability to close business in the short term. Our strong results in
the third quarter a year ago were driven by a large order for our wireless
industrial vehicle management system by one of our core customers. We did not
meet our goals for closing orders of similar magnitude in the third quarter this
year.
"However, in the third quarter, we did successfully pursue the strategic
acquisition of didBOX Ltd, a manufacturer and marketer of vehicle operator
identification systems based in the United Kingdom, which we closed and
announced on October 19, 2009. This acquisition expands I.D. Systems' base of
operations in Europe, gives us immediate access to a broader base of European
customers, and provides us with a wider array of solution options for prospects
in the industrial vehicle management market.
"In addition, our efforts to expand two key applications of our wireless
technology -- managing airport vehicles and rental fleets -- continued to
progress in the third quarter. American Eagle Airlines took steps to expand
their use of our wireless technology, following initial system deployment at
Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport earlier this year. And we laid the
groundwork to launch a new generation of our patented wireless rental fleet
management technology for a leading U.S. rental car company -- a deal we
consummated in September, 2009, when we entered into a multi-year, seven-figure
system implementation contract.
"Our balance sheet remains strong," concluded Mr. Jagid. "As of September 30,
2009, I.D. Systems had $64.3 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities, and $49.4 million of working capital."
For the three months ended September 30, 2009, selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased 6.8% to $3.6 million, compared to $3.9 million
for the third quarter in 2008. Excluding stock based compensation, selling,
general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2009 were $3.2
million, down sequentially from $3.4 million in the second quarter and $3.8
million in the first quarter of 2009. I.D. Systems' management continues to
focus on cost controls without diminishing investment in growth opportunities.
Research and development expenditures decreased 4.5% to $642,000 for the third
quarter of 2009, compared to $672,000 for the corresponding period in 2008.
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, revenues were $7.5 million,
compared to $19.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. This
decrease was primarily attributable to a $7.5 million decrease in revenue from
the U.S. Postal Service, due to a spending freeze, and a $5.9 million decrease
in revenue from Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., partially offset by increased revenue
from other customers. Gross profit margin for the nine-month period was 53.1%,
compared to 50.9% for the comparable period in 2008. Net loss for the nine-month
period was $8.4 million, or ($0.77) per basic and diluted share, compared to net
loss of $2.9 million, or ($0.27) per basic and diluted share, for the first nine
months of 2008.
Non-GAAP net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, was $6.8
million, or ($0.62) per basic and diluted share, adjusting for $1.6 million in
stock-based compensation expenses. For the corresponding period in 2008,
non-GAAP net loss was $636,000, or ($0.06) per basic and diluted share,
adjusting for $2.3 million in stock-based compensation expenses. A table
entitled "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" is included in
this press release.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased 6.7% to $11.6 million, compared to $12.4
million for the same period in 2008. Research and development expenditures for
the period decreased 3.3% to $2.0 million, compared to $2.1 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2008.
Highlights of the quarter ended September 30, 2009, included:
* The selection of I.D. Systems' PowerFleet(TM) Vehicle Management
System for initial deployment by:
-- Nestle Beverage, a division of Nestle S.A., the world's
largest food company, following the successful launch of the
PowerFleet system at another Nestle division, Nestle Waters
North America, in the second quarter of 2009;
-- Procter & Gamble Manufacturing GmbH, a subsidiary of Procter
& Gamble Co.;
-- Chevron Global Lubricants, a division of Chevron Corp.;
-- One of the world's largest grocery retailers and
distributors, with dozens of distribution centers across the
U.S.;
-- Lamb Weston, a leading provider of potatoes and other food
products to the foodservice and retail industries, and a
division of ConAgra Foods; and
-- Regal-Beloit Corporation, a leading manufacturer of motion
control and power generation products serving global markets.
* The award of a multi-year, seven-figure contract to I.D. Systems by
a leading U.S. rental car company to develop and deploy rental fleet
management technologies, with fixed monthly billing expected to
commence in the first quarter of fiscal 2010.

Non-GAAP Measures

non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP net income/loss and non-GAAP net income/loss
per basic and diluted share. Reference to these non-GAAP measures should be
considered in addition to results prepared under current accounting standards,
but are not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. These non-GAAP
measures are provided to enhance investors' overall understanding of I.D.

information due to the adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's
Accounting Standards Codification ASC 718 Compensation -- Stock Compensation.
Specifically, I.D. Systems believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful
information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses,
