2010 Revenue Increases 20.3% to $17.5 Million, 4th Consecutive Year of Record Growth, 16th Consecutive Profitable Quarter
New Products Position Company for Significant
Growth
FAIRFIELD, NEW JERSEY (February 16, 2011) —
Cover-All Technologies Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: COVR.OB), a Delaware corporation (“Cover-All” or the “Company”), today announced
financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2010. The full-year results reflect the contribution of the new Business
Intelligence unit, which was acquired from Moore Stephens Business Solution (MSBS) on April 12, 2010, and includes approximately $285,000 in
acquisition expenses, which were reported in the first quarter of 2010.
Operational Highlights:
• |
For the full year 2010 revenue was $17.5 million compared to $14.5 million for the full year 2009, an increase of 20.3%. |
• |
Continuing revenue (maintenance and ASP revenue from contracts) for the full year 2010 was $8.1 million, up 14.1% compared to $7.1 million for the full year 2009. |
• |
Operating income for 2010 was $2.2 million, inclusive of the $285,000 in non-recurring acquisition expense, compared to $3.3 million for 2009. |
• |
The Company’s balance sheet remains strong with stockholders’ equity at a record $15.2 million as of December 31, 2010. The Company completed the 2010 year with $5.9 million in cash, $5.0 million in working capital and no long-term debt. |
• |
Released 15 additional jurisdictions for its latest NexGen product which supports the rate, quote, issuance, subsequent transactions, and statistical reporting of ISO®’s Commercial Auto product. Since initial release in Q3 2010, the product now supports 40 states and the remaining 10 will be released by the end of Q1 2011. |
John Roblin, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “Cover-All delivered its fourth consecutive profitable year, and the fourth year in a row of record
revenues. We have built a business model that works extremely well for us.”
“In 2010, we announced that we were focusing on
profitable growth, both organically and through mergers and acquisitions. In April, 2010 we acquired a company that was focused on the capabilities of
Business Intelligence. In addition, we also invested in two exciting new products — Commercial Automobile and Commercial Package. These products
were developed using our innovative NexGen technology built on our My Insurance Center platform. As we enter 2011, both of these new products as well
as our new Business Intelligence product are nearing completion. We even have customers who have already signed contracts for each of these three
products and are awaiting delivery, even though development of the products has not been completed.”
“Now, with the development of these new products, we
have reached the point where we are essentially a new company without the limitations of legacy technology and a foundation to integrate additional
capabilities through acquisition. Our Sales and Marketing team is expanding and will look to take advantage of these developments through an aggressive
program focused on making 2011 a very outstanding year. We are marketing My Insurance Center and Business Intelligence as separate products as well as
a combined offering. In addition to new customers, we expect strong upgrade and up-sell opportunities from our existing customer base for both products
in 2011 and beyond.”
“We achieved what we said we would do at the beginning
of 2010, namely building a more diversified engine for growth and investing in next-generation software to replace our legacy offering while continuing
to record profitable results. For the first time in our history, we delivered four consistent quarters with earnings of at least $.02 per share per
quarter. We are transitioning the business model of MSBS from a consulting model to our preferred model of license, contracted ongoing revenue and
professional services, in line with our My Insurance Center offering. We believe that this will also improve our profit margins.”
“Today we have nearly completed the process of
transforming Cover-All from what some have described as a smaller niche player to a robust organization that has the people, expertise and products to
compete aggressively throughout the Property and Casualty marketplace. Although we are raising our profile as a ”new“ company with
significant products available now to the marketplace, we are also building upon a strong balance sheet, demonstrated record of profitability and a
reputation for delivering on our promises. This is an exciting time for Cover-All.”
Financial Results for the Year Ended December 31,
2010
Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2010 were a
record $17.5 million, compared to $14.5 million in 2009, an increase of 20.3%. License revenue was $2.3 million in 2010, compared to $4.1 million in
2009. In aggregate, maintenance and ASP revenue, which together represent continuing revenue, was $8.1 million in 2010, up 14.1% from $7.1 million in
2009. Professional services revenue in 2010 was $7.1 million, up 115.4% compared to $3.3 million for 2009.
Total expenses (cost of revenue and operating expenses) for
2010 were $15.3 million, up 36%, inclusive of $285,000 in non-recurring acquisition expense, compared to $11.2 million in 2009. Net income for 2010 was
$3.0 million, or $0.12 per basic and diluted share (based on 24.8 million basic and 25.6 million diluted weighted average shares, respectively),
compared to $3.9 million, or $0.16 per share (based on 24.6 million basic and 25.1 million diluted weighted average shares, respectively), for 2009.
The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.8 million in 2010, offset by taxes of $63,000, for a net benefit of $737,000. The income tax benefit
represented approximately $0.03 in earnings per share for both the 2010 fourth quarter and full-year period.
Mr. Roblin continued, “The Company has not simply
upgraded the legacy ISO Commercial Auto product (and the new Commercial Package Product). Instead, we redesigned them from the ground up. When we
deliver the final features of the NexGen Commercial Auto, for example, the feature set of our redesigned platform supports virtually all coverages, all
coverage options, and all rating mechanisms within the ISO product itself. When combined with our integrated business intelligence products, this makes
our platform compelling — and we believe even revolutionary — in the marketplace. These exciting new products were built using
Cover-All’s innovative NexGen platform that enables us to create new insurance products in very short time frames enabling our customers to
introduce differentiated products into the P&C insurance marketplace to expand market share.”

respectively), compared to net income of $3.3 million, or $0.13 per share (based on 24.6 million basic and 25.1 million diluted weighted average
shares, respectively), in the same quarter of 2009.
