Jacada Reports Preliminary Third Quarter Results

 

ATLANTA – October 2, 2003 – Jacada Ltd. (Nasdaq: JCDA) today announced preliminary results for the 2003 third quarter ended September 30, 2003.

 

Jacada anticipates total revenue for the 2003 third quarter to be in the range of $5.2 million to $5.4 million compared with $5.1 million in the 2003 second quarter and with $4.6 million in the 2002 third quarter. Software license revenue for the 2003 third quarter is expected to increase more than 10% sequentially and 25% year-over-year to a range of $2.3 to $2.4 million, compared with $2.1 million in the 2003 second quarter and with $1.8 million in the 2002 third quarter. Jacada expects to report a net loss in the range of $0.4 million to $0.5 million, similar to the net loss incurred in the 2003 second quarter and smaller than the net loss in the 2002 third quarter.

 

“Total revenues and earnings were slightly below our estimates due to certain service projects starting later in the quarter than anticipated”, said Gideon Hollander, CEO of Jacada. “We are happy with the growth in license revenues and in total revenues and remain cautiously positive for the fourth quarter.”

 

The statements in this announcement are based on preliminary results and could vary when Jacada reports actual results on October 27, 2003.
