CalAmp Reports Fiscal 2011 Third Quarter Results
OXNARD, Calif., January 4, 2011CalAmp Corp. (Nasdaq: CAMP), a leading provider of
wireless products, services and solutions, today reported results for its fiscal third
quarter ended November 30, 2010. Key elements include:
| Consolidated third quarter revenues of $29.6 million; wireless datacom third quarter
revenues up 52% year-over-year to $21.2 million. |
| Consolidated gross margin percentage of 26.1%, up from 19.2% in third quarter of
prior year. |
| GAAP net loss of $0.2 million, or $0.01 loss per diluted share; Adjusted Basis
(non-GAAP) net income of $0.4 million, or $0.01 per diluted share; both within
guidance. |
| Third quarter net cash provided by operations of $0.8 million. |
Commenting on the third quarter performance, Rick Gold, CalAmps Chief Executive Officer,
said, Strong growth in our wireless datacom business drove our first quarterly operating
profit in nearly four years. At $21.2 million, wireless datacom revenue grew by 17% on a
sequential quarter basis and 52% year-over-year. We are experiencing strong demand for our
mobile resource management (MRM) products from a broad base of customers in local fleet
management and vehicle finance, as well as emerging applications such as remote car start.
We are also seeing growth in our wireless networks products with significant revenue
contributions in the third quarter from previously announced projects in the public safety
and rail transportation sectors. In the energy sector, we are making good progress on a
number of pilot projects for Smart Grid infrastructure applications and expect the first of
these to begin system deployment in early fiscal 2012.
Mr. Gold continued, While our wireless datacom business has generated significant momentum
in fiscal 2011, our satellite business remains depressed. Introduction of new products is
not occurring as rapidly as we had expected, primarily due to evolving customer requirements.
In addition, demand for the legacy satellite products that we currently supply has been
soft. We are continuing to work with our customers to qualify new products and expect demand
for both legacy and new products to pick up in the first half of fiscal 2012.
Fiscal 2011 Third Quarter Results
Total revenue for the fiscal 2011 third quarter was $29.6 million compared to $30.7 million
for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 as higher revenues in the Companys wireless datacom
segment were offset by lower satellite segment revenues. Wireless datacom revenue increased
52% to $21.2 million from $13.9 million in the same period last year, while satellite revenue
decreased to $8.4 million from $16.8 million in the same period last year.

Consolidated gross profit for the fiscal 2011 third quarter was $7.7 million, or 26.1% gross
margin, compared to gross profit of $5.9 million, or 19.2% gross margin, for the same period
last year. The increases in gross profit and gross margin percentage in the latest quarter
were due primarily to higher wireless datacom revenues.
Results of operations for the fiscal 2011 third quarter as determined in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) was a net loss of $0.2 million, or $0.01
per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.3 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the
third quarter of last year.
The Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) net income for the fiscal 2011 third quarter was $0.4 million,
or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to Adjusted Basis net income of $0.1 million, or zero
cents per diluted share, for the same period last year. The Adjusted Basis net income (loss)
excludes the impact of amortization of intangible assets and stock-based compensation
expense, and includes an income tax provision or benefit computed without giving effect to
increases or decreases in the deferred income tax valuation allowance that are recognized for
GAAP basis financial reporting. A reconciliation of the GAAP Basis pretax loss to the
Adjusted Basis net income (loss) is provided in the table at the end of this press release.
Liquidity
At the end of the third quarter, the Company had total cash of $4.3 million and total debt of
$11.7 million. Total debt at that date consisted of $7.3 million drawn under the Companys
revolving bank credit facility and subordinated debt of $4.4 million. The unused borrowing
capacity on the bank revolver was $2.0 million at November 30, 2010. Net cash provided by
operating activities during the three- and nine-month periods ended November 30, 2010 was
$768,000 and $806,000, respectively.
Business Outlook
Commenting on the Companys business outlook, Mr. Gold said, Looking ahead, we expect to see
fiscal fourth quarter consolidated revenues in the range of $28 to $32 million, with wireless
datacom revenues continuing to grow and satellite revenues slightly down from the third
quarter. We expect GAAP Basis net income (loss) in the range of a $0.03 loss to $0.01 income
per diluted share. The Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) net income (loss) for the fourth quarter is
expected to be in the range of a $0.01 loss to $0.03 income per diluted share. Looking
further ahead to the first half of fiscal 2012, based on our current backlog and pipeline of
opportunities, we expect our satellite shipments to begin rebounding and expect continued
strength in our wireless datacom segment.

NON-GAAP EARNINGS RECONCILIATION

Non-GAAP Earnings Reconciliation
GAAP refers to financial information presented in accordance with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles in the United States. This press release includes historical non-GAAP
financial measures, as defined in Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. CalAmp believes that its presentation of historical non-GAAP financial measures
provides useful supplementary information to investors. The presentation of historical
non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation from or as a
substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
In this press release, CalAmp reports the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted Basis Net
Income (Loss) and Adjusted Basis Net Income (Loss) Per Diluted Share. CalAmp uses these non-GAAP
financial measures to enhance the investors overall understanding of the financial performance
and future prospects of CalAmps core business activities. Specifically, CalAmp believes that a
report of Adjusted Basis Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Basis Net Income (Loss) Per Diluted Share
provides consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates the comparison of results of core
business operations between its current and past periods.
The reconciliation of the GAAP Basis Pretax Loss to Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) Net Income (Loss) is
as follows:

benefit is recognized and excluding the effects of increases and decreases in the deferred
