CALAMP CORP. October 11, 2007 By: /s/ Richard K. Vitelle _________________ _________________________ Date Richard K. Vitelle, Vice President-Finance (Principal Financial Officer) EX-99 2 exhibit_99-1.txt EXH. 99-1 PRESS RELEASE DATED 10-11-07 Exhibit 99.1 NEWS BULLETIN FROM: CalAmp Logo FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CalAmp Reports Fiscal 2008 Second Quarter Results OXNARD, Calif., October 11, 2007--CalAmp Corp. (Nasdaq: CAMP), a leading provider of wireless communications products, today reported results for its fiscal 2008 second quarter ended August 31, 2007. Key elements include: Second quarter revenues of $32.7 million, GAAP loss from continuing operations of $0.14 per diluted share and Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) loss from continuing operations of $0.08 per diluted share. Wireless DataCom second quarter revenues of $22.8 million nearly 50% higher than prior year. Completed the sale of the TelAlert software business in a transaction valued at approximately $9.4 million. "Similar to last quarter, our operating results were driven by the continued strength of our Wireless DataCom Division, which generated revenues of $22.8 million-a 46% increase compared to the same period last year," commented Fred Sturm, CalAmp's President and Chief Executive Officer. "During the second quarter, the Wireless DataCom Division benefited from contributions by the recent acquisitions of SmartLink Radio Networks and AirIQ's Vehicle Tracking business. Furthermore, we are pleased that several new wireless communications products that the Company recently developed and launched earlier in calendar year 2007 for mobile resource management (MRM) applications are achieving increased market penetration and are producing solid revenue growth. We continue to believe that our wireless datacom business provides significant growth opportunities and enhances CalAmp's overall profitability and competitiveness." Regarding the previously announced product performance issues with a key DBS customer that resulted in the customer suspending orders for new products, Mr. Sturm stated, "We are still in discussions with this customer working towards resolution of this matter, and although it is taking longer than previously anticipated, we expect that we will soon achieve that resolution and resume making volume shipments to this customer." Fiscal 2008 Second Quarter Results Total revenue for the fiscal 2008 second quarter was $32.7 million compared to $54.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007. Lower revenue from the Satellite Division in the latest quarter was partially offset by growth in the Company's Wireless DataCom Division, which was driven by recent acquisitions and organic growth. The net loss for the fiscal 2008 second quarter was $4.4 million or $0.19 per diluted share compared to net income of $1.2 million or $0.05 per diluted share for the second quarter of last year. As noted above, during the fiscal 2008 second quarter, the Company completed the sale of its TelAlert software business, the last remaining business within the Solutions Division, in a transaction valued at approximately $9.4 million. The operating results of the Solutions Division have been presented in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations as a discontinued operation for all periods presented. Excluding the effect of discontinued operations, the fiscal 2008 second quarter loss from continuing operations was $3.3 million or $0.14 per diluted share compared to income from continuing operations of $1.7 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the same period last year. The Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) loss from continuing operations for the fiscal 2008 second quarter was $2.0 million or $0.08 per diluted share compared to Adjusted Basis income from continuing operations of $2.8 million or $0.12 per diluted share for the same period last year. Adjusted Basis income (loss) from continuing operations excludes the impact of amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense and write-off of acquired in-process research and development costs, each net of tax where applicable. A reconciliation of the GAAP basis income (loss) from continuing operations to Adjusted Basis income (loss) from continuing operations is provided in the table at the end of this press release. Excluding the effect of discontinued operations, both GAAP-basis EPS and Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) EPS for the fiscal 2008 second quarter would have been within previously announced guidance. Gross profit for the fiscal 2008 second quarter was $6.3 million, or 19.3% of revenues compared to $12.7 million or 23.2% of revenues for the same period last year. The reduction in gross profit and gross margin were primarily the result of lower sales of Satellite Division products. Liquidity At August 31, 2007, the Company had total cash of $8.4 million, with $32.8 million in total outstanding debt. As previously disclosed, the loss recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 has caused the Company to become noncompliant with the financial covenants under the Company's bank credit agreement that preclude additional borrowing under the revolving credit facility until the Company is able to obtain a waiver from its lenders and/or an amendment of the credit agreement. The Company is in discussions with its lenders to resolve the issue. In the near term the Company believes that it has sufficient liquidity such that the restriction on borrowing under the revolving credit facility will not materially affect its operations. However, if the lenders are unwilling to agree to a waiver or an amendment or exercise their rights to accelerate borrowings outstanding under the credit agreement, the inability to borrow under the revolving credit facility and/or the acceleration of such indebtedness could materially adversely affect the Company's financial position and operations, including its ability to fund its currently anticipated working capital and capital expenditure needs. Because the lenders have the right to call the loan until such time as a waiver is obtained, the entire $32.8 million outstanding balance of the bank loan is classified as a current liability in the August 31, 2007 balance sheet. Net cash used in operating activities was $2.1 million for the six months ended August 31, 2007. Inventory was $27.0 million at the end of the second quarter, representing annualized turns of approximately 4 times. Accounts receivable outstanding of $24.8 million at the end of the second quarter represents a 67 day average collection period. Business Outlook Commenting on the Company's business outlook, Mr. Sturm said, "Based on our current forecast, we believe fiscal 2008 third quarter consolidated revenues will be in the range of $32 to $35 million, with a loss from continuing operations in the range of $0.07 to $0.11 per diluted share. The Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) loss from continuing operations for the second quarter, which excludes amortization of intangible assets, stock- based compensation expense and write-off of acquired research and development costs - each net of tax - is expected to be $0.01 to $0.05 per diluted share. During the third quarter, we expect revenue contributions from our Wireless DataCom Division in the range of $22 million to $25 million." Conference Call, Webcast and Form 10-Q Filing A conference call and simultaneous webcast to discuss fiscal 2008 second quarter financial results and business outlook will be held today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern / 1:30 p.m. Pacific.

NON-GAAP EARNINGS RECONCILIATION (Unaudited, in thousands except per share amounts) Non-GAAP Earnings Reconciliation - -------------------------------- "GAAP" refers to financial information presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States. This press release includes historical non-GAAP financial measures, as defined in Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. CalAmp believes that its presentation of historical non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information to investors. The presentation of historical non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In this press release, CalAmp reports the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted Basis Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations and Diluted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Per Share. CalAmp uses these non-GAAP financial measures to enhance the investor's overall understanding of the financial performance and future prospects of CalAmp's core business activities. Specifically, CalAmp believes that a report of Adjusted Basis Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations and Diluted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Per Share provides consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates the comparison of results of core business operations between its current and past periods. The reconciliation of the GAAP Basis Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations to Adjusted Basis Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations is as follows: Three Months Six Months Ended Ended August 31, August 31, ------------- ------------- 2007 2006 2007 2006 ----- ----- ----- ----- GAAP Basis Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations $(3,258) $1,698 $(14,203) $(1,711) Adjustments to reconcile to Adjusted Basis Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations: Amortization of intangible assets, net of tax 954 682 2,022 776 Stock-based compensation expense, net of tax 331 387 629 636 In-process R&D, net of tax in fiscal 2008 - - 190 6,850 ------- ------- ------- ------- Adjusted Basis Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations $(1,973) $ 2,767 $(11,362) $ 6,551 ======= ======= ======= ======= Adjusted Basis Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations per diluted share $ (0.08) $ 0.12 $ (0.48) $ 0.28 Weighted average common shares outstanding on diluted basis 23,623 23,689 23,612 23,230 Reconciling items that are not treated as tax deductible in computing the GAAP basis income tax provision (in-process research and development in fiscal 2007) are not tax-effected in the Non-GAAP Earnings Reconciliation. The remaining reconciling items are tax-effected using an adjusted year-to-date effective income tax rate that is computed by excluding from pretax income (loss) those reconciling items that are not treated as tax deductible in computing the GAAP basis income tax provision.
