AWARE, INC. Dated: May 10, 2005 By: /s/ Michael A. Tzannes ------------ ---------------------- Michael A. Tzannes Chief Executive Officer - 2 - EXHIBIT INDEX Number Description ------ ----------- 99.1 Press release issued by Aware, Inc. on May 10, 2005. - 3 - Exhibit 99.1 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Rob Weiskopf Aware, Inc. 781-276-4000 AWARE, INC. REPORTS 2005 FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS BEDFORD, MASS. - MAY 10, 2005 - Aware, Inc. (NASDAQ: AWRE), a worldwide leader and innovator of broadband intellectual property, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2005. Revenues for the first quarter of 2005 were $4.2 million compared to $3.6 million for the same period last year. Net loss for the first quarter of 2005 was $0.3 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to a net loss of $1.1 million, or $0.05 per share, for the year-ago period. "We are seeing increased demand for our StratiPHY2+(TM) licensing products as the industry shifts to higher-value services using ADSL2+," commented Michael Tzannes, Aware's chief executive officer. "This quarter's highlight was the addition of a new StratiPHY2+ licensee, which further validates the value proposition of StratiPHY2+ and increases the number of Aware licensees to six." Tzannes also noted that recently published DSL forecasts from Infonetics Research indicate that 2005 will be a year of strong DSL growth based on the following projections: o CO ports will grow from about 58 million in 2004 to 61 million in 2005; and o CPE will grow from about 36 million in 2004 to over 78 million in 2005. - 4 - "We intend to capitalize on this expanded market opportunity by adding new customers and increasing the share of the market that uses our StratiPHY products," commented Tzannes. He continued, "We expect that a new VDSL2 standard will be consented at the International Telecommunications Standard meeting in Geneva later this month. This will be a significant addition to the arsenal of DSL standards and will deliver higher speeds to infrastructures with fiber penetrating deeper into phone company networks. We expect that this new standard will act as an added incentive for a rapid transition to higher speed DSL services. In anticipation of this standard, we have developed our StratiPHY3 product, the latest addition to our StratiPHY family. StratiPHY3 will support ADSL and VDSL standards in a highly flexible, cost effective silicon-level technology platform." "In our biometrics products, we have recently launched new products as part of our strategy to expand the footprint of our industry offerings," commented Tzannes. "We are pleased to report that we had first significant sales of our new e-passport ICAOPack product this quarter." "We are on the right track with our product offerings. The DSL industry appears poised to enter an exciting stage of rapid growth and new service offerings and we intend to remain at the center of that activity. The biometrics industry is expanding to include the use of biometrics other than fingerprints for markets outside of law enforcement and we are aggressively developing new products to address these opportunities," Tzannes concluded.
