Gross profits for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004 was $130.9 million, or 24.8% of revenues, as compared to gross profits of $118.8 million or 23.2% of revenues, last quarter and gross profits of $101.8 million, or 22.6% of revenues, in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2003.

 

Net income for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004 was $18.4 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $12.5 million, or ($0.16) per share, in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2003.

 

Other income of $32.3 million includes a gain of $21.6 million from an arbitration award in the Telefonica litigation, and a $9.4 million gain on the sale of subsidiary stock as a result of Net2Phone’s follow-on offering in November 2003.

IDT narrowed its loss from operations, with a $16.2 million loss from operations for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004, down from losses from operations of $18.4 million and $30.7 million, for the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2004 and the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2003, respectively. Included in the loss from operations for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004 was $1.5 million in non-cash compensation relating to the amortization of deferred compensation resulting from the issuance during the second quarter of 1.1 million shares of restricted shares of IDT stock to employees.

 

Excluding the operating results of Net2Phone (IDT’s Voice over IP business segment)1, the loss from operations in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004 was $7.5 million, compared with a loss from operations of $20.7 million in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2003, and a loss from operations of $10.8 million in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2004.

“All our business lines focused on improving gross margins this quarter, and with considerable success,” said Jim Courter, Vice Chairman and CEO. “Of course, revenue growth is a long-standing tradition for IDT, and we delivered once again. We have also delivered returns for our long-term shareholders. The Wall Street Journal has just recognized IDT for providing the best 1 year, 3 year and 5 year average compound annual total return (price changes with reinvestment of any distributions) to investors in fixed-line communications.”

IDT Retail Telecom

 

IDT Retail Telecom revenues for the second quarter increased 6.8% year-over-year, and declined 0.1% from the first quarter of Fiscal 2004. Income from operations for the second quarter increased 21.1% year-over-year and decreased 3.7% sequentially.

 

· The calling card business focused on improving gross margins through targeted price increases in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004. Gross profit dollars improved 23.7% year-over year and 4.9% sequentially. Calling card revenues increased 6.1% year-over-year, but decreased 2.4% sequentially. Beginning early in the third quarter, IDT Telecom introduced several aggressively priced cards in newer geographic markets. As a result, we expect calling card gross margins for the rest of the fiscal year to be somewhat lower than the in the second quarter.

 

· 15.9% of calling card revenues in the second quarter were derived from our international divisions, compared to 13.8% in the prior quarter. We expect that international sales will continue to account for a higher proportion of overall sales in the future, as we experience growth in Europe (specifically, France, Italy and Scandinavia), South America, and in Asia.

 

· Consumer phone services generated revenues of $43.8 million in the second quarter, up from $37.2 million in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2004 and $39.2 million in the year-ago period.

 

· Our customer base for America Unlimited, our new calling plan which features unlimited local and long distance calling within the U.S. for a fixed monthly fee, grew to 133,000 by the end of the second quarter. We now offer the service in a total of 11 states, having recently launched service in Florida.

 

· Our gross profit margin for consumer phone services continued to decrease, with gross profit margin of 50.5% in the second quarter, compared to 52.2% in the prior quarter and 58.1% in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2003. This decrease in gross profit margin is attributable to the growing customer base for America Unlimited, which generates lower gross profit margin but higher gross profit dollars per customer than our original pure long-distance offering customer base . The growing America Unlimited customer base, we believe, will continue to be the major contributor to greater revenues and gross profit dollars for our consumer phone services business.

 

IDT Wholesale Telecom

 

During the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004, IDT Wholesale Telecom enjoyed its highest quarterly revenues since the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2000. Revenues for the quarter increased 37.5% year-over-year and 4.7% sequentially. Moreover, half of the gain in revenues was attributable to expanding our business with Tier 1 carriers. We have broadened our wholesale carrier service offerings to include a service in which we guarantee a higher quality product, based on the customer’s specific needs.

 

The loss from operations in the second quarter declined 40.4% from the same quarter last year, and 2.0% from the prior quarter.


IDT Telecom Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for IDT Telecom increased, in absolute dollars, 9.1% sequentially and 10.3% year-over-year. Expressed as a percentage of overall IDT Telecom revenues, SG&A expenses amounted to 14.6% in the second quarter, compared to 13.5% in the first quarter, and 15.1% in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2003. The sequential increase was driven primarily by significantly higher advertising and other expenses related to the continued roll-out of America Unlimited, and was partially offset by continued cost-cutting efforts. We expect that selling, general and administrative expenses will continue to increase, in absolute dollars, for the remainder of Fiscal Year 2004. However, we expect that these expenses will remain stable as a percentage of revenues.

 

IDT Entertainment

 

Completing additional acquisitions in the second quarter, IDT Entertainment revenues grew to $23.2 million, as compared to revenues of $12.1 million in the prior quarter and revenues of $0.3 million in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2003. The 92% revenue improvement over the first quarter was primarily due to the consolidation of Anchor Bay Entertainment and Mainframe Entertainment, effective December 2003. We expect IDT Entertainment revenues to further increase in the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2004, as these two companies will be consolidated for an entire quarter.

 

Anchor Bay distributes videos to mass merchants and other retail outlets including Wal-Mart, Target, Kmart, and Blockbuster Video, and has a significant presence in the children, horror and fitness genres. Anchor Bay’s library consists of over 3,500 titles, including the Thomas the Tank Engine series, the Halloween film series and the Crunch fitness title.

 

Mainframe, in which we acquired a 62% interest, is a leading provider of CG animation for television, such as the Spider-Man series on MTV, and direct-to-video products, such as the Barbie DVD collection for Mattel.

 

For the second quarter, IDT Entertainment recorded an operating loss of $1.1 million, as compared to operating losses of $0.7 million in each of the prior quarter and the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2003. Gross profit margin improved to 30.9% for the quarter, as compared to 12.1% in the first quarter.

 

During the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004, in addition to the Anchor Bay and Mainframe acquisitions, IDT Entertainment completed several transactions to secure access to brand-name talent, characters and content, as well as a unique distribution channel for family-friendly content. We engaged Christopher Reeve to direct an original feature-length animated film that is being produced entirely by IDT Entertainment. In connection with our acquisition of a 5% equity interest in Archie Comics Entertainment, we obtained rights to co-develop and co-produce animated properties based upon selected Archie comics characters, as well as Sabrina the Teenage Witch, and Josie and the Pussycats. In addition, IDT Entertainment established a joint venture with the Christian Broadcasting Network to develop and distribute family-friendly programming.

 

IDT Solutions

 

IDT Solutions recorded revenues of $19.4 million in the second quarter, as compared to revenues of $21.3 million in the prior quarter and revenues of $20.7 million in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2003. Operating losses were reduced to $15.4 million, a 23.5% sequential improvement, and a 33.7% improvement year-over-year. The reduction in operating losses over the past year was accomplished through an ongoing, comprehensive review of the operations of IDT Solutions and the continuing removal of unprofitable buildings from its fixed wireless network.

 

For the remainder of Fiscal Year 2004, IDT Solutions expects to continue and even accelerate its aggressive cost cutting efforts. Moreover, IDT Solutions is examining several other new high-margin revenue opportunities, including offering management services to building owners whose rooftops are suited for cell towers, acquiring towers for use by cell phone companies, and using the Winstar network for backhaul and wireless applications, such as Wi-Fi and Wi-Max. Also, the Winstar network has infrastructure and switches in many major U.S. cities and IDT Solutions is examining the opportunity to use this switching capacity and network to sell services to other CLECs.


Voice over IP

 

IDT’s Voice over IP business is conducted by Net2Phone, which is a separate publicly held corporation whose common stock is quoted on the NASDAQ National Market under the symbol NTOP. Net2Phone is subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Net2Phone issued a press release with respect to its results for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004, the three months ended January 31, 2004, on March 9, 2004. Set forth below is a brief description of Net2Phone’s results as they are consolidated into IDT’s results. Because of the elimination of intercompany transactions in IDT’s consolidated results, Net2Phone’s independently reported results of operations differ from those reported in IDT’s consolidation. For further information with respect to Net2Phone, please refer to the above-referenced press release and other Net2Phone press releases, Net2Phone’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, and prior and subsequent reports and other information filed by Net2Phone from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. None of such releases, reports or information are incorporated into this release and such releases, reports and information do not form a part of this release.

 

Net2Phone’s loss from operations was $8.6 million on revenues of $18.6 million in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004, net of intercompany transactions with IDT. This compares with a loss from operations of $10.0 million on revenues of $21.1 million in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2003 and a loss from operations of $7.6 million on revenues of $19.0 million recorded in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2004.

 

IDT’s net income for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004 includes only its approximate 19.1% percent ownership stake in Net2Phone during the quarter. An adjustment to record the share of Net2Phone’s net losses attributable to the other shareholders of Net2Phone has been made in ‘minority interests.’ We have extended the arrangement giving IDT voting control over Net2Phone until December 1, 2004. Therefore, we expect to continue to consolidate Net2Phone at least until then.

 

On March 4, 2004, IDT completed the acquisition of all the preferred and common interests in IDT Investments and all the preferred interests in IDT Telecom that were held by Liberty Media Corporation, for approximately 3.2 million shares of IDT Class B common stock. As a result, Liberty Media now owns approximately 13.5 million shares of IDT Class B common stock—approximately 15% of IDT’s equity—and the number of IDT common shares outstanding has increased to approximately 91.2 million shares.

In this press release, all statements that are not purely about historical facts, including, but not limited to, those in which the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate, “target” and similar expressions, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. While these forward-looking statements represent IDT’s current judgment of what may happen in the future, actual results may differ materially from the results expressed or implied by these statements due to numerous important factors. Such factors, include, but are not limited to, that fact that: each of IDT’s telecommunications business lines is highly sensitive to declining prices, which could adversely affect IDT’s revenues and margins; because IDT’s prepaid calling cards generate the bulk of IDT’s revenues, IDT’s financial results are substantially dependent upon success in that area; IDT may not be able to obtain sufficient or cost-effective termination capacity to particular destinations to keep up with the growth of minutes of use to such destinations; termination of IDT’s carrier agreements with foreign partners or IDT’s inability to enter into carrier agreements in the future could materially and adversely affect IDT’s ability to compete in foreign countries; IDT’s revenues and growth will suffer if IDT’s distributors and sales representatives, particularly Union Telecard, fail to effectively market and distribute IDT’s prepaid calling cards and other services; IDT Solutions has incurred significant losses since its inception and IDT’s recently announced restructuring efforts may not be successful in making it profitable; IDT has incurred significant losses since inception, and may continue to do so; IDT’s growth strategy depends in part, on our acquiring and integrating complementary businesses and assets and expanding existing operations, which IDT may not be able to do; federal, state and international government taxation and regulations may reduce IDT’s ability to provide services; telecommunications regulations of other countries may restrict IDT’s operations; and the infringement or duplication of our proprietary technology could increase IDT’s competition and IDT could incur substantial costs in defending or pursuing any claims relating to proprietary rights; external factors in the motion picture and television industries and those factors described in IDT’s most recent report on SEC Form 10-K (under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”), which may be revised or supplemented in subsequent reports on SEC Forms 10-Q and 8-K and other filings IDT may make with the SEC.

 


Footnotes


1 Due to IDT’s control, through an intermediate entity, of a majority of the outstanding voting equity of Net2Phone, IDT consolidates Net2Phone’s financial results with its own. IDT’s percentage ownership of Net2Phone’s equity during the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2004 was approximately 19.1%. On IDT’s statement of operations, through a minority interest adjustment, the share of Net2Phone’s net income/(loss) attributable to IDT is reflected in IDT’s net income/(loss) and earnings per share results. However, due to the consolidation of 100% of Net2Phone’s operating results prior to the minority interest adjustment, the entire Net2Phone income/(loss) from operations is reflected in IDT’s consolidated income/(loss) from operations. Accordingly, a presentation of IDT’s income/(loss) from operations without the effect of Net2Phone’s operational results may be useful to investors.
