XATA Reports Fiscal 2011 First Quarter Results
Software revenue growth of 17 percent results in a $0.06 non-GAAP earnings per diluted share for first quarter of fiscal 2011
MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- XATA Corporation (Nasdaq: XATA), reported results for its first quarter fiscal year 2011 period ended December 31, 2010.
Total revenue was $14.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2010, compared to $17.5 million for the same period of fiscal 2010. Net loss to common shareholders for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $0.1 million, compared to a net loss to common shareholders of $1.7 million for the same period in fiscal 2010. Other comments include:
- Software revenue grew 17 percent to $11.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2010, compared to $9.7 million for the same period of fiscal 2010.
- The Company acquired 48 new customers in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, bringing its total customer count to approximately 1,500.
- Software revenue grew approximately 5 percent on an organic basis in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, with our flagship XATANET and Turnpike products growing at approximately 13 percent.
- Fiscal 2011 first quarter software revenue accounted for 81 percent of total revenue, compared to 55 percent for the same period of fiscal 2010.
- System and service revenues were $2.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to $7.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010.
- Cash flow from operations was $1.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
"The increase we showed in recurring software revenue supports our growth strategy, but that was offset by the delay we experienced in the transition to our next generation on-board XATANET platform," said Jay Coughlan, chairman and president of XATA. "Fortunately, this new system is scheduled for release this month with several customers already contracted to receive it. We are excited about this release and are looking forward to the impact it will have on our market potential."
"Continued improvement in our software margins again allowed the Company to generate positive non-GAAP earnings and cash flow from operations," said Mark Ties, chief financial officer of XATA.
Gross margins were 60 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2011, compared to 45 percent for the same period of fiscal 2010. This margin increase was driven largely by a favorable revenue mix shifting towards higher margin software revenue. Software margins of 75.5 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were consistent with the same period of fiscal 2010.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2011 selling, general and administrative costs of $6.1 million remained flat with the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The Company's ability to streamline its operations allowed it to hold these costs flat with fiscal 2010 which only contained one month of the Turnpike operations which were acquired in December 2009.
Research and development costs were $2.2 million and $1.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in fiscal 2011 was driven by additional investment in research and development costs associated with new functionality and the impact of the Turnpike acquisition.
Net loss to common shareholders for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 improved to $0.1 million, compared to a net loss to common shareholders of $1.7 million for the same period in fiscal 2010. As a result the Company reported a loss of $0.01 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to a loss of $0.20 per diluted share in the same period last year.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company reported non-GAAP earnings (earnings before interest (net), non-recurring acquisition and financing related costs, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock based compensation and preferred stock dividends and deemed dividends) of $1.6 million which is flat as compared to the same period of fiscal 2010.
As of December 31, 2010, the Company held $14.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and had working capital of $18.0 million, excluding the current portion of long-term obligations and deferred revenue and applicable deferred costs.
Non-GAAP vs. GAAP Financials
To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company provides certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP earnings, which is earnings before interest (net), acquisition and financing related costs, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock based compensation and preferred stock dividends and deemed dividends, and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share. The Company's 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 the Company's current financial performance and ability to generate cash flow.
