ARI ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Company posts strong growth in earnings
Milwaukee, Wis., June 14, 2011 – ARI (OTCBB:ARIS), a leading provider of technology-enabled solutions that help dealers, distributors and manufacturers in selected vertical markets increase revenue and reduce costs, today reported results for its third quarter ended April 30, 2011.
The Company posted a significant increase in operating income, net income and earnings per share, as well as organic growth in revenue during the third quarter of fiscal 2011.
Operations Review
"We have made significant progress toward our goals for fiscal 2011 and our third quarter operating results reflect our success as we have achieved organic revenue growth, and increased operating income, net income and earnings per share," said Roy W. Olivier, President and Chief Executive Officer of ARI. "We believe the continued successful execution of the key strategies outlined in our Fiscal 2010 Annual Report is reflected in the significant year over year increase in operating cash flow, which we used to pay down more than $500,000 on our line of credit, while continuing to invest in our product development and technology infrastructure. We are working on several new product enhancements expected to be released in the upcoming quarter, which we anticipate will increase future revenues for the Company. We completed the second stage of our data center consolidation plan to create one Tier III hosted facility, as we moved our Bethlehem, PA and Cypress, CA data centers to Madison, WI. As we continue to execute on our strategies to drive innovation and efficiency, we anticipate additional improvements in our financial results for the remainder of fiscal 2011,” added Olivier.
