WEBB INTERACTIVE SERVICES, INC. REPORTS

SECOND QUARTER RESULTS FOR FISCAL 2003

 

Jabber Achieves 166% Revenue Growth And Reduces Net Losses

By Nearly 30% For Three-Month Period Ended June 30, 2003;

Company Also Announces Management Transition

 

DENVER, CO – (Business Wire) – August 6, 2003 Webb Interactive Services, Inc. (OTCBB:WEBB), a developer and marketer of real-time communications software and instant messaging (IM) solutions through its 43%-owned subsidiary, Jabber, Inc., today announced financial results for both Webb and Jabber for the second quarter period, ended June 30, 2003.

 

On March 24, 2003, Webb sold a portion of its interest in Jabber in a $7.2 million strategic financing transaction with Intel Capital, Intel’s strategic investing arm, and France Telecom Technology Investissements, the technology investment vehicle of France Telecom. Consequently, Webb’s ownership stake in Jabber is now reflected as a minority interest of 43%. As such, Webb has ceased consolidating Jabber’s results of operations and financial position with its own, and now reports its investment in Jabber using the equity method of accounting. Jabber’s results of operations and its financial position will be reported separately.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2003, Webb’s net loss applicable to common shareholders was $890,680, or $0.04 loss per share, compared with a net loss of $377,327, or $0.02 loss per share, reported for the same three-month period in 2002, which included a one-time non-cash gain of $0.15 per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, Webb’s net loss applicable to common shareholders was $1,991,768, or $0.09 loss per share, compared with a net loss of $4,102,247, or $0.28 loss per share, reported for the same six-month period in 2002, which included a one-time non-cash gain of $0.18 per share.

 

Highlights from Jabber’s fiscal performance for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 were:

 

    Net revenues increased 166% to $964,321 for the three month period compared to net revenues of $362,378 reported for the same three month period in the prior year;

 

    Net revenues for the six month period, ended June 30, 2003, increased 74% to $2,131,338, compared to net revenues of $1,223,431 achieved for the six months ended June 30, 2002;

 

    For the three months ended June 30, 2003, net losses decreased 29% to $1,351,047 compared to net losses of $1,911,674 reported for the three months ended June 30, 2002; and

 

    Net losses for the six-month period were $3,645,349, which included a $1.6 million non-cash charge booked in connection with the March 2003 financing transaction, and compared to net losses of $3,325,481 reported for the same six-month period in 2002.

 

Bill Cullen, Chief Executive Officer of Webb Interactive Services, stated, “During the second quarter, Jabber, Inc. marked notable progress on numerous fronts – not the least of which included the signing of a global agreement with valued partner HP and confirming that its Extensible Communications Platform enables compliance with NASD guidelines on the archival and tracking of instant messages within member organizations. Based on expected developments with key strategic partners

and other prevailing opportunities Jabber is aggressively pursuing, we are maintaining our guidance that Jabber will indeed achieve its stated financial objectives for 2003.”

 

In other news, the Company announced that Rob Balgley has resigned as Chief Executive Officer of Jabber, Inc. The Company has retained an international search firm, and Balgley has agreed to remain CEO until a replacement is hired. He has further agreed to serve as a consultant to the Company beyond the management change in order to ensure a smooth transition that is consistent with Jabber’s current trajectory.

 

“It has been a great privilege to help build and grow Jabber, Inc. from a pre-revenue, pre-product company to where it is today, a leader in the presence-enabled messaging and real-time communications markets,” said Balgley. “While it’s always difficult to say goodbye, I have dedicated almost three years to the Company and feel that with our recent financing and continued strong revenue performance, I am leaving the Company in an excellent position to meet its stated objectives.”

 

The Company will host a teleconference and webcast this afternoon beginning at 4:15PM Eastern today, and invites all interested parties to join management in a discussion regarding Webb and Jabber’s second quarter financial results, corporate progression and other meaningful developments. To participate, please call 800-240-7305 or via the Internet at www.webb.net under “Investor Relations”. If you are unable to participate, a replay of the webcast will be available for 90 days on www.webb.net.
