Sensytech, Inc. Announces Q3 Results

NEWINGTON, VA, August 14, 2003 / Business Wire / — Sensytech, Inc. (NASDAQ: STST), today announced revenues and earnings for its third quarter ended June 30, 2003.

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased $4,069,000 or 45.1% to $13,100,000 compared to $9,031,000 for the prior year quarter. Revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2003 increased $17,167,000 or 83.7% to $37,676,000, compared to $20,509,000 for the prior year period.

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $1,058,000, or $0.16 per diluted share, an increase of 57.9% compared to $670,000 or $0.16 per diluted share for the prior year quarter. For the nine months ended June 30, 2003 net income increased to $2,949,000, or $0.48 per diluted share, an increase of 84.7% compared to the prior year period of $1,597,000, or $.38 per diluted share.

“Our revenue and profit performance continues to improve in line with our expectations. As our planning process focuses on fiscal year 2004, the opportunities for substantially added business is materializing. Demand for our engineered solutions continues to be high in all business segments with a defined focus on domestic work for Homeland Security and Defense,” noted S. Kent Rockwell, CEO of Sensytech.

Mr. Rockwell further stated, “Our new sixty thousand square foot manufacturing facility located in Fairchance, Pennsylvania, will be opened on August 15, 2003. Manufacture of the Surface Ship Torpedo Defense System and LAMPS MK III Communications system will be fully transitioned to this new facility by the second quarter of 2004. We are currently hiring for the necessary skills to staff the facility and pleased that there appears to be no shortage of qualified applicants. The challenge of closing our New Jersey facility while simultaneously opening our Fairchance operations will be complex and demanding for the next two quarters. We remain continuously optimistic about the opportunities beyond that timeframe.”
