Date: August 14, 2003 Advanced Digital Information Corporation By: Jon Gacek ------------------------------ Jon Gacek Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer EX-32 3 a4455387_ex991.txt ADVANCED DIGITAL EXHIBIT 99.1 Exhibit 99.1 Revenues Grow 42% to Record $108 Million in Third Quarter as ADIC Earns Four Cents Per Share; OEM Sales up 79%; Operating Profit up $7.5 Million; Scalar i2000 Launched REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 14, 2003--Advanced Digital Information Corporation (Nasdaq:ADIC) today announced sales for the third quarter ended July 31 grew more than 42 percent over the same period last year to a record total for any quarter of $108.3 million. Net income for the period was $2.6 million, or four cents per fully diluted share, up from a loss of $2.1 million, or three cents per share, in the third quarter of 2002. Operating income increased nearly $7.5 million. Sequentially, sales grew 7.6 percent over the immediately preceding quarter while net income grew nearly nine percent. "We expected this quarter to be fairly similar to the preceding quarter and by many measures our expectations were exceeded," according to Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Peter van Oppen. "OEM revenues exploded with 79 percent annual and 18 percent sequential growth as our products and partners continued to perform very well. Despite significant competition from our OEM partners and order deferrals caused by heightened interest in the introduction of our new Scalar(R) i2000 Tape Library late in the quarter, branded ADIC(R) business continued to hold its own with a one percent sequential decline and 19 percent annual growth," he said. "Our strategy of continued product innovation and investment in both our OEM and branded channels at the bottom of an economic cycle continues to produce additional market acceptance and share gain." Geographically, branded sales showed good annual growth in all major markets while small sequential growth in the U.S. and a rebound in Asia approximately offset a modest sequential decline in European branded business. In aggregate, branded sales accounted for 51 percent of total sales during the quarter while OEM sales were 49 percent versus 61 percent branded and 39 percent OEM a year ago. OEM sales were 45 percent of total sales in the immediately preceding second quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of sales climbed from 29.2 percent in third quarter last year to 30.1 percent in the just completed period and declined sequentially from 32.7 percent in the second quarter. Sales of Intelligent Storage Solutions(TM) (ISS), which include elements of ADIC connectivity and software technology and are sold through both branded and OEM sales channels, represented approximately 33 percent of total sales in the third quarter, a decrease from nearly 36 percent in the same quarter last year and 38 percent in the immediately preceding quarter. Although the percentage of ISS sales declined both annually and sequentially, the dollar value of such sales grew by 31 percent over the same period last year and shrank approximately seven percent sequentially. "We believe the sequential decline in gross margin percentage is primarily a result of temporary mix shifts rather than any indication of pricing pressure or reduced market acceptance among our higher-margin ISS products," van Oppen said. The Company noted that several factors contributed to the mix shift including the new Scalar(R) i2000 product not being available until the second half of the quarter, a decline in the percentage of standalone software revenues from the record second quarter and especially strong OEM sales as a proportion of total sales. "We expect margins in the fourth quarter will likely increase again as these factors correct themselves," according to van Oppen. The Scalar(R) i2000 Tape Library product has already resulted in major competitive wins and substantial revenue although it was not generally available until late in the quarter. VP Hardware Engineering Lynn Jacobs said "Our i2000 establishes a new state-of-the-art in Enterprise Libraries and represents hundreds of person-years in development and test, including industry leading RAS and management features. We are delighted with its initial market acceptance in both branded and OEM channels." Standalone software revenues were a smaller percentage of total revenue in the third quarter due to receipt of a single, large individual order in the second quarter that was not replicated during the third period. The Company expects substantial sequential software revenue growth during the fourth quarter of 2003. StorNext Management Suite has established itself as an important disk file system and storage management product in media, oil and gas, government and other markets with a globally recognizable customer list. Branded sales are also expected to show sequential growth in the fourth quarter and may represent a larger proportion of total revenues with a resultant improvement in average gross margin as a percentage of sales. However, the Company cautioned that, despite likely strength in branded sales, continued strength in OEM sales could keep average gross margin percentage levels from reaching or exceeding those experienced during the second quarter of 2003. Sales at the Company's major OEM partners, which include Cray, Dell, Fujitsu-Siemens, HP, IBM and Sun, represent many different products, technologies and price points including hardware, software and connectivity from workgroup to enterprise level applications. The Company is expected to provide further disclosure regarding fourth quarter and fiscal 2004 outlook during the teleconference scheduled Aug. 14. Operating expenses for the third quarter totaled $30.3 million, an increase of more than ten percent from $27.4 million reported in the third quarter of 2002. Sequentially, operating expenses were down by more than one percent, consistent with the flattening of expense growth previously anticipated. Other income for the third quarter declined by approximately 11 percent and seven percent from the year ago and preceding periods, respectively, to $1.3 million. Lower income tax rates during the quarter reflect benefits recognized as a result of ongoing tax planning initiatives. Total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, net of all debt, increased by over $17 million during the quarter to $204.6 million.
