CalAmp Reports Fiscal 2011 First Quarter Results

OXNARD, Calif., July 8, 2010—CalAmp Corp. (Nasdaq: CAMP), a leading provider of wireless products, services and solutions, today reported results for its fiscal first quarter ended May 31, 2010. Key elements include:

• Revenue of $26.3 million, up 15% from prior year and within guidance.

• Consolidated gross margin percentage of 23.2%, up from 20.5% in prior year.

• GAAP net loss of $2.5 million, or $0.09 per diluted share; Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) net loss of $1.1 million, or $0.04 loss per diluted share; both within guidance.

Rick Gold, CalAmp’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “First quarter operating results were in line with expectations. Revenues increased 15% on a year-over-year basis and were driven by improving fundamentals in both our wireless datacom and satellite businesses. During the quarter, demand for our mobile resource management (MRM) products was particularly strong as new location tracking products launched earlier this year are resonating in the marketplace. Also contributing to wireless datacom revenues were two smart grid projects, as well as initial deployment activities on a Canadian public safety communications project and a rail transportation communications project that were announced earlier this year. As anticipated, first quarter revenues of our satellite business declined compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 but were up on a year-over-year basis. We expect next-generation satellite products that are currently in the customer qualification process, along with normal seasonal demand patterns in this market, will help drive growth and improve profitability during the remainder of fiscal 2011.”

Fiscal 2011 First Quarter Results

Total revenue for the fiscal 2011 first quarter was $26.3 million compared to $23.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The year-over-year increase in revenues was due to higher sales in both the Company’s satellite and wireless datacom business segments. Satellite revenue of $10.5 million increased 13.8% from $9.2 million in the prior year, while wireless datacom revenue of $15.8 million increased 15.0% from $13.8 million in the prior year.

Consolidated gross profit for the fiscal 2011 first quarter was $6.1 million or 23.2% of revenue compared to gross profit of $4.7 million or 20.5% of revenue for the same period last year. The increase in gross profit and gross margin percentage in the latest quarter was due primarily to higher wireless datacom revenues.

Results of operations for the fiscal 2011 first quarter as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) was a net loss of $2.5 million or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $4.0 million or $0.16 per diluted share in the first quarter of last year.

The Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) net loss for the fiscal 2011 first quarter was $1.1 million, or $0.04 loss per diluted share, compared to an Adjusted Basis net loss of $2.3 million or $0.09 loss per diluted share for the same period last year. The Adjusted Basis net loss excludes the impact of amortization of intangible assets and stock-based compensation expense, and includes an income tax benefit computed without giving effect to increases or decreases in the deferred income tax valuation allowance that are recognized for GAAP basis financial reporting. A reconciliation of the GAAP Basis pretax loss to the Adjusted Basis net loss is provided in the table at the end of this press release.

Liquidity

At May 31, 2010, the Company had total cash of $4.0 million and $12.1 million in total debt. Total debt at that date consists of $7.9 million drawn under the Company’s revolving bank credit facility and subordinated debt of $4.2 million. The unused borrowing capacity on the bank revolver was $1.8 million at May 31, 2010. Net cash used in operating activities was $0.5 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

Business Outlook

Commenting on the Company’s business outlook, Mr. Gold said, “Based on current projections, we expect fiscal 2011 second quarter consolidated revenues will increase on a sequential quarter basis and be in the range of $27 to $30 million, with growth anticipated in both our satellite and wireless datacom businesses. The second quarter gross margin percentage is anticipated to improve slightly over the first quarter. As a result, we expect a GAAP Basis net loss in the range of $0.04 to $0.08 per diluted share. The Adjusted Basis net loss for the second quarter, which excludes intangibles amortization expense and stock-based compensation expense, is expected to be in the range of $0.01 to $0.04 per diluted share.”

“In addition, based on our backlog of orders and pipeline of new opportunities, we are reaffirming our guidance that full-year fiscal 2011 revenues will increase 10% to 20% over fiscal 2010 and be in the range of $123 to $135 million, with growth in both our satellite and wireless datacom businesses. We continue to expect the consolidated gross margin for fiscal 2011 will be in the range of 23% to 27% of revenue, and that fiscal 2011 total operating expenses will be essentially flat compared to fiscal 2010.”

CAL AMP CORP.
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 GAAP.

In this press release, CalAmp reports the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted Basis Net Loss and Adjusted Basis Net Loss Per Diluted 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 Net Loss and Adjusted Basis Net Loss Per Diluted 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 Pretax Loss to Adjusted Basis (non-GAAP) Net Loss is as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	May 31,
	2010			2009
GAAP basis pretax loss	$	(2,477	)	$	(3,957	)
Amortization of intangible assets		306			341
Stock-based compensation expense		523			412
Pretax income (loss) (non-GAAP basis)		(1,648	)		(3,204	)
Income tax benefit (non-GAAP basis) (a)		584			855
Adjusted basis (non-GAAP) net loss	$	(1,064	)	$	(2,349	)
Adjusted basis net loss per diluted share	$	(0.04	)	$	(0.09	)
Weighted average common shares outstanding on diluted basis		26,982			24,860

(a) The non-GAAP income tax benefit is computed using the Company’s combined U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate of 40.0% and 40.7% in fiscal 2011 and 2010, respectively, excluding the pretax losses of foreign operations for which no income tax benefit is recognized and excluding the effects of increases and decreases in the deferred income tax valuation allowance.
