I.D. Systems, Inc. Reports Third Quarter Financial Results

Hackensack, NJ, November 2, 2006—I.D. Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDSY) today announced its financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2006. Revenues for the third quarter increased 41% to $8.1 million, compared to $5.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, as sales of the company’s patented Wireless Asset Net® system for managing fleets of industrial equipment continued to grow.
 
Adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2006 was $1.4 million, or $0.13 per basic share and $0.11 per diluted share, compared to net income of $641,000, or $0.08 per basic share and $0.07 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2005. Adjusted net income was calculated by adjusting GAAP net income for the impact of stock-based compensation of $785,000. Adjusted net income is considered non-GAAP financial information; a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to GAAP financial measures can be found in the Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures table included in this press release. GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2006 was $632,000, or $.06 per basic share and $.05 per diluted share.
 
“We are pleased to continue a trend of strong year-over-year revenue growth and deliver a sixth consecutive quarter of positive net earnings for our shareholders,” said Jeffrey Jagid, I.D. Systems’ chairman and chief executive officer. “We continue to focus on rapidly building our core business of wireless industrial fleet management, while working closely with our Fortune 500 customer base to expand our service offerings and develop new applications for our patented wireless technology.”
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2006, cost of revenues was $4.5 million, including $18,000 attributable to stock-based compensation pursuant to the company’s adoption of accounting rule SFAS 123(R), resulting in a gross profit margin of 44.3%.
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter were $3.2 million, compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase was attributable primarily to $618,000 of stock-based employee compensation pursuant to the company’s adoption of accounting rule SFAS 123(R), and to increased expenses related to the hiring of additional personnel to support continued company growth. As a percentage of revenues for the quarter, SG&A expenses were 39.2%, compared to 28.3% for the third quarter a year ago.
 
Research and development expenditures for the quarter were $673,000, compared to $398,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase was attributable primarily to $149,000 of stock-based compensation pursuant to the company’s adoption of accounting rule SFAS 123(R), and to increased engineering payroll expenses. As a percentage of revenues for the quarter, R&D expenditures were 8.3%, compared to 6.9% for the third quarter a year ago.
 
Interest income for the quarter increased to $860,000 from $51,000 for the same period a year ago, as the company invested proceeds from its public stock offering of March, 2006.
 
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006, revenues increased 61% to $20.8 million, compared to $13.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Gross profit margin for the nine-month period was 46.3%, compared to 48.0% for the comparable period in 2005.

Adjusting for $1.8 million in stock-based compensation expenses, adjusted net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, was $2.7 million, or $0.27 per basic share and $0.23 per diluted share, compared to $419,000, or $0.05 per basic and diluted share, for the same period a year ago. Adjusted net income is considered non-GAAP financial information; a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to the GAAP financial measures can be found in the Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures table included in this press release. GAAP net income for the nine-month period was $938,000, or $.09 per basic share and $.08 per diluted share.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, SG&A expenses were $8.8 million, compared to $4.9 million for the same period in 2005. The increase was attributable primarily to $1.5 million of stock-based compensation pursuant to the company’s adoption of accounting rule SFAS 123(R), and to increased payroll expenses. As a percentage of revenues for the period, SG&A expenses were 42.4%, compared to 38.0% for the same period a year ago. R&D expenditures for the period were $1.7 million, compared to $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The increase was attributable primarily to $271,000 of stock-based compensation pursuant to the company’s adoption of accounting rule SFAS 123(R), and to increased engineering payroll expenses. As a percentage of revenues for the period, R&D expenditures were 8.3%, compared to 8.7% for the same period a year ago.
 
Interest income for the first nine months of 2006 increased to $1.7 million from $179,000 for the same period a year ago.
 
As of September 30, 2006, I.D. Systems had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $69.4 million and working capital of $81.4 million, compared to $7.6 million and $13.9 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2005.

Non-GAAP Measures
 
To supplement its consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, I.D. Systems has begun providing certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per basic and diluted share. Reference to these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared under current accounting standards, but are not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of I.D. Systems’ current financial performance and provide further information for comparative information due to the adoption of the new accounting standard SFAS 123R. Specifically, I.D. Systems believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses, gains and losses that may not be indicative of its core operating results and business outlook. In addition, I.D. Systems believes the non-GAAP measures that exclude stock-based compensation enhance the comparability of results against prior periods. Reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure of all non-GAAP measures included in this press release can be found in the financial tables included on page four of this press release.
