The Company anticipates that net income for the quarter will be in the range of $1.5 - $1.8 million, or 57% to 88% above the prior year, exceeding the full year guidance of 24% to 28% net earnings growth. EPS is expected to be in the $.09 - $.11 range vs. $.07 the prior year, despite a substantially higher diluted share count this year. The Company expects first quarter revenue to be in the range of $23.6 million to $23.9 million, moderately up from the strong revenue performance reported in the prior year's first quarter. Although sales pipelines were and remain satisfactory, the revenue achieved was not consistent with the Company's full year guidance of 10% to 12% revenue growth. A number of expected transactions, particularly in the DOC1 Division, were not able to be closed by June 30 -- several have already closed in early July. "With the first quarter historically our lowest for both revenue and earnings, we are pleased with the strong earnings we expect to report for the first quarter," said Bob Bowen, CEO of Group 1 Software. "Although the revenue in the DOC1 division was below expectations, we remain confident in the Company's business prospects and, accordingly, are reaffirming our full year guidance." More information on Group 1's first-quarter results will be available on July 29, 2003 when the company anticipates reporting its final results and hosting a conference call to discuss those results.
