Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter
Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2009 were $4.2 million, up 61% compared with $2.6 million for the fourth quarter 2008, and up 34% compared with $3.1 million in the third quarter of 2009.
Net income for the quarter according to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) was $102,000 or $0.02 per ordinary share (basic and diluted) compared to a net loss of $(2.0) million, or $(0.39) per ordinary share (basic and diluted), for the fourth quarter of 2008 and ($394,000) or $(0.08) per ordinary share (basic and diluted), for the third quarter of 2009. The quarter's net income reflects higher revenues from sales in all territories.
To provide investors with insight into the Company's underlying operating results, financial results are also being presented on a non-GAAP basis excluding share-based compensation expenses and change in fair value of warrants from all periods. According to this non-GAAP basis, the Company recorded net income of $245,000, or $0.05 per ordinary share (diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2009, compared with a net loss of $(1.9) million, or $(0.37) per ordinary share (basic and diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2008, and $(219,000), or $(0.04) per ordinary share (basic and diluted), for the third quarter of 2009 as more fully described in the consolidated statements of operations below.
Comments of Management
Commenting on the results, Mr. David Ripstein, RADCOM's President and CEO, said, "We are proud to report a breakthrough quarter that has enabled us to achieve profitability for the quarter and positive operating cash flow for the year as a whole. These very satisfying results are a continuation of the sales trends and strategic progress which we have been reporting throughout 2009.
"During the fourth quarter, we achieved particularly strong bookings as well as sales, with a rising percentage attributable to top-tier customers. We believe that our growing success and steadily improving results are sending us three clear messages: 1) that major service providers have begun to view performance monitoring as critical for their ability to maintain service quality in the face of spiraling network traffic levels; 2) that RADCOM's solutions have earned a reputation as the market's 'benchmark standard' that address the service provider's true pain points; and 3) that our strategy and execution methodology have been correct and are now bearing fruit."
Mr. Ripstein concluded, "As such, we feel very well positioned as we begin to move forward. We are entering 2010 with an encouraging backlog and a strong pipeline of potential sales. The fact that our expense structure is lean enhances our ability to generate profits. Most important, our strategies of focusing on customer satisfaction, high-potential target markets and technology leadership have proven themselves during difficult times. As such, with winds of market recovery in the air, we feel very optimistic and continue working to fulfill our potential."
Financial Results for the Full Year Ended December 31, 2009
Revenues for 2009 were $11.9 million compared with $15.2 million in 2008. On an operating basis, the Company generated positive cash flow from operating activities of $0.9 million during 2009, which does not include loan principal repayments of $1.2 million, compared to a cash burn of $4.6 million during 2008.
Despite the reduction in sales, the Company succeeded in reducing its net loss for the period by 54% to $(2.6) million, or $(0.52) per ordinary share (basic and diluted), compared with $(5.8) million, or $(1.16) per ordinary share (basic and diluted), for 2008. Net loss for 2009 on a non-GAAP basis was $(2.2) million, or $(0.43) per ordinary share (diluted), a decrease of 59% compared with $(5.3) million, or $(1.05) per ordinary share (diluted), for 2008.
