Sensytech, Inc. Delivers Record Breaking Q2 Results

NEWINGTON, VA, May 14, 2003 / Business Wire / — Sensytech, Inc. (NASDAQ: STST), today announced record breaking revenues and earnings for its second quarter ended March 31, 2003.

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2003 increased $5,784,000 or 81.8% to $12,853,000 compared to $7,069,000 for the prior year quarter. Revenue for the six months ended March 31, 2003 increased $13,098,000 or 114.1% to $24,576,000, compared to $11,478,000 for the prior year period.

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was $1,087,000, or $0.16 per diluted share, an increase of 111.5% compared to $514,000 or $0.12 per diluted share for the prior year quarter. For the six months ended March 31, 2003 net income increased to $1,891,000, or $0.32 per diluted share, an increase of 104.0% compared to the prior year period of $927,000, or $.22 per diluted share.

“We are pleased with our revenue growth for the quarter of 81.8%. This growth is attributable to the marketing efforts in all three business segments. Demand for our products and engineered solutions continues to be high from existing domestic customers and continues to gain exposure with new international customers. Our earnings are in line with our expectations given the mix of contracts currently being delivered,” noted S. Kent Rockwell, CEO of Sensytech.

Mr. Rockwell further stated, “We anticipated a quick and decisive conclusion to the armed conflict in Iraq. Now that the war has essentially come to conclusion, we expect a more orderly flow of newly funded business from government offices where order processing has been interrupted by other priorities. Our book to bill ratio in the trailing twelve months was 1.18 which favors an increasing flow of revenues. We anticipate holding or increasing this rate.”
