US Dataworks, Inc. Announces First Fiscal Quarter Financial Results
- Management to Host Conference Call Today at 11:00am EDT -
HOUSTON, Aug. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- US Dataworks, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: UDWK), a leading developer of payment processing solutions, today announced its financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2010.
Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 were $1,366,338 compared with revenues of $2,008,461 for the prior year period, a 32% decrease. The Company reported an operating loss of $530,117 for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 compared to operating income of $241,566 for the prior year period. Net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 was $674,398, or $0.02 per share, compared to a net loss of $23,911, or $0.00 per share, for the prior year period.
Charles E. Ramey, Chairman and CEO of US Dataworks, commented, "While first quarter results were disappointing, the decline in revenues was primarily due to the timing of contractual project agreements with one of our more significant customers. Specifically, a gap in revenue occurred when one project agreement ended in April and the follow-on project agreement did not start up until mid-June. The revenue from that follow-on work was not lost but merely delayed. We continue to focus on our transactional and subscription-based revenue model and have begun to see the anticipated increases in recent months. We expect our transactional and subscription-based revenue to continue to grow as new customers ramp up their processing volumes and current customers increase their volumes in the coming quarters."
"Operationally, the Company remains strong and while the contractual timing hurt our first quarter performance, we continue to maintain our revenue guidance of $11.5-12.5 million for our current fiscal year ended March 31, 2011. We believe that we are on the path for this revenue growth due to several initiatives. One is delivering our flagship product, Clearingworks, in a Software as a Service (SaaS), or cloud computing, environment which we expect will attract new customers by leveraging the Clearingworks platform with a quick go-to-market approach. Another initiative that we expect to contribute to our growth is our newly launched product ClearHistory, which not only provides our clients with the capability to store and retrieve images, but also provides all payment information concerning each payment transaction. This feature can empower our clients with the ability to do extensive research, in-depth analytics and metrics so they can manage their costs effectively. A third initiative is Mobile Payments, which we believe will become a key payment method over the next few years, not just in the U.S., but international markets as well," added Mr. Ramey.

Notes:
- Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure we define as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and equity compensation expense. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental financial measure to assess (i) our operating and financial performance without regard to the structure of our financing or the historical cost basis in our assets and (ii) our ability to generate cash flow to cover our interest payments. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be used as a substitute for financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, including net income, operating income and cash flow from operating activities. Such limitations include the fact that Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect (i) cash requirements to service interest and principal payments on our debt, (ii) capital expenditure requirements or (iii) income tax payment requirements and income tax accruals. In addition, companies in our industry may define Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, thereby limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
