Rimage Reports First Quarter 2012 Financial Results

First Quarter Revenue and Bottom-Line Results In Line with Guidance

Qumu and the Recently Introduced Signal Product Expected to Drive Growth in 2012

Board Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend of $.17 Per Share, Payable June 15

Minneapolis, MN – April 26, 2012 – Rimage Corporation (NASDAQ: RIMG) today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012.

Sherman L. Black, president and CEO, said, “The quarterly performance met our financial guidance and was characterized by a decline in disc publishing revenues, partially offset by the contribution from Qumu. While lower sales to the retail sector and weakness in Europe were the primary factors in the decrease in disc publishing, we generated growth in other areas, specifically law enforcement applications and our business in Asia Pacific.

“Rimage achieved another key milestone in its transformation with the recent introduction of our Signal Online Publishing product, an easy to use platform designed to push secure content to nearly any tablet or computer. With Signal, companies can publish content directly to their employees, partners, suppliers, and customers while applying security and usage policies that effectively manage its distribution, even when it is resident on subscribers’ devices and disconnected from the Internet. The response from our product introduction has been very encouraging, and we expect to begin to generate revenues from Signal during the second half of 2012, with the initial sales focus on helping customers deliver pre-release content for media and entertainment and on securing business content to tablets for corporations.”

“While Qumu sales in the quarter were below the expectations we established in October when we acquired the business, we remain confident about its market opportunity, its products and the team. During the first quarter, we revitalized Qumu’s marketing campaigns, increased sales resources to generate and qualify leads, and expanded our presence in Europe. The Qumu product development team continues to focus on industry-leading enhancements, resulting in the recent introduction of Pathfinder, a patent pending technology that guarantees all users of streaming video receive a quality viewing experience regardless of their location or device. With the establishment of our three platforms, Qumu, Signal and Rimage disc publishing, we believe Rimage is uniquely well positioned to offer a comprehensive solution to enterprises worldwide to address their need to manage and distribute content reliably and efficiently across the spectrum of devices, including tablets, smartphones, and PCs,” concluded Mr. Black.

On April 24, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a $0.17 per share quarterly cash dividend, payable on June 15, 2012, to shareholders of record on May 31, 2012. Based on the current stock price, this dividend represents a 7% yield. During the first quarter, the Company paid out $1.7 million in dividends. It made no share repurchases during the first quarter, but has been opportunistically buying shares in the second quarter.

Financial Guidance

For the second quarter 2012, the Company expects revenues of between $19 and $21 million and the net loss per share is expected to be between $(0.15) and $(0.17). Excluding amortization of Qumu intangibles, non-GAAP net loss per share is expected to be between $(0.12) and $(0.14). For the full year 2012, the Company expects revenue growth overall with disc publishing revenues expected to decline in the low single digits, and Qumu contracted commitments to grow significantly from 2011. The Company defines contracted commitments as the dollar value of signed customer purchase commitments.
