Greenwich, CT – May 9, 2011 – Presstek, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRST), a leading supplier of digital offset printing solutions to the printing and communications industries, today reported financial and operating results for the first quarter ended April 2, 2011. In the quarter, the Company reported total revenue of $31.9 million, a decline of 7.6% from the amount reported in the first quarter of 2010, and an increase of 2.6% from the fourth quarter of 2010.
In the quarter, the Company reported adjusted EBITDA of $0.7 million, the sixth consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA. The Company had an operating loss of $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2011 versus an operating loss of $0.3 million in the 2010 first quarter. The majority of the increased operating loss in the first quarter of 2011 was related to lower revenue along with lower gross margins on equipment sales and service. During the first quarter of 2011, the Company incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $1.5 million, or $0.04 per share, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $0.5 million, or $0.02 per share, in the first quarter of 2010. (See” Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures”)
“We had indicated during our last earnings call that we expected first quarter 2011 revenue and adjusted EBITDA to be relatively flat in comparison with our fourth quarter 2010 results. I am pleased to report we exceeded that expectation with a 2.6% sequential quarterly increase in revenues and 14% more in EBITDA,” said Presstek Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Jeff Jacobson. “The sale of consumables accelerated during the latter part of the quarter, providing us with our highest quarterly total revenue performance in four quarters. Additionally, we continued to generate positive quarterly adjusted EBITDA. We successfully completed installation of our first 75DI during the quarter, and the sales prospect funnel for the 75DI continues to be robust. It’s exciting to see the different types of customer solutions that the 75DI press can serve, including folding cartons, book covers, and applications requiring sensitive treatment of various substrates. In fact, the high level of interest generated by the 75DI has led to increased awareness of the 52DI. I’m also pleased that compared to the first quarter of 2010, consumable sales from our 52DI solutions increased 23% and consumable sales from our open architecture computer-to-plate solutions increased 31% during the first quarter of 2011.” (See “Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures”)
First Quarter 2011 Financial Results
Total revenue in the first quarter of 2011 was $31.9 million, up $0.8 million from the previous quarter and a decrease of $2.6 million from the first quarter of 2010.
|
·
|
Equipment revenue decreased $1.3 million, to $5.1 million in the first quarter of 2011, compared with the same period last year.
|
|
·
|
Consumables revenue totaled $20.7 million in the first quarter of 2011, compared with $21.5 million for the same period last year, as bad weather across much of the U.S. and Canada during January and February resulted in reduced customer demand. However, March sales showed a strong recovery, resulting in a sequential quarterly increase of 6.4%. Consumable sales in the Europe, Africa and Middle East Region during the first quarter were up 11.4% from the comparable year-ago quarter.
|
|
·
|
Service revenue declined 8.7% to $6.0 million in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the year-ago quarter. This decline is primarily due to the continued erosion of the analog service base, lower installation revenue and a general trend by customers to delay service calls and maintenance to save money in a difficult economy. Service revenue has remained fairly stable during the past four quarters.
|
Gross margin percent for the first quarter of 2011 was 31.2% compared to 33.0% in the first quarter of 2010. The reduction versus the first quarter of 2010 was due primarily to lower service and equipment margins. The Company implemented cost reduction actions in the Service business during the first quarter of 2011 in response to lower Service margins.
Operating expenses declined by $0.5 million, or 4.2%, from the first quarter of 2010. Excluding special charges of $0.3 million, operating expenses were down 6.8% on a year-over-year basis. The decline in operating expenses was primarily related to reduced payroll costs, professional service fees, and equity-based compensation. The Company incurred restructuring expenses of $0.3 million during the first quarter of 2011 related to cost actions taken to reduce future annual operating expenses and Service business costs aggregating approximately $1.3 million.
As the Company expected, debt net of cash increased during the first quarter of 2011, ending at $8.8 million compared to $6.1 million at the end of fiscal 2010. The primary causes of the increase were cash expenditures incurred with the introduction of the new 75DI press, pre-payment of certain annual operating expenses in the normal course of business, and higher receivables resulting from stronger March sales.
“Despite the continued impact of a soft economy and bad weather across much of the U.S. during the first quarter, we are pleased that our results exceeded our expectations,” said Presstek Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Jeff Cook. “In addition, we have seen an increased level of equipment sales activity during the early part of the second quarter of 2011, and expect to report both sequential and year-over-year equipment revenue growth for the quarter. (See “Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures”)

A full reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures is provided in the financial tables below.

a. Operating expenses excluding special charges, Adjusted EBITDA [earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and restructuring and other non-recurring charges (credits)]; and Working capital excluding debt are not measures of performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and should not be considered alternatives for, or in isolation from, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Presstek's management believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Operating expenses excluding special charges provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Presstek's current financial performance and prospects for the future. Presstek's management believes that Working capital excluding debt, provides meaningful supplemental information regarding Presstek's ability to meet its current liability obligations. Presstek believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP measures in assessing the performance of Presstek's ongoing operations and liquidity, and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to Presstek's historical operating results and liquidity. Our presentations of these measures, however, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Reconciliations of these measures to GAAP are included in the tables above.
