EX-99 2 ex99-1.txt EXHIBIT 99.1 EXHIBIT 99.1 GTSI Delivers First Quarter Double Digit Growth in Margin, Net Income, and -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Earnings -------- Strong Bookings for Month of March CHANTILLY, VA. - April 27, 2004 - GTSI(R) Corp. (Nasdaq: GTSI), a leading government technology solutions provider, today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, and monthly sales for March 2004 (see attached tables). For the first quarter 2004 GTSI reported sales of $178.6 million, a slight decrease of 0.1% from $178.8 million during the same period a year ago. For the seasonally weak first quarter, GTSI reported a 21.7% improvement in net income, with a loss of $1.4 million compared to a loss of $1.8 million over the same period last year. Earnings per share improved by 23.8% to a loss of $0.16 versus a loss of $0.21 a year ago. Total gross margin grew by 12.5% to $18.1 million in the first quarter 2004 versus $16.1 million a year ago. PREPARING FOR THE PEAK SEASON ----------------------------- "During the quarter, we continued with several key initiatives designed to enhance our ability to support our federal customers information technology transformation needs. We further honed our sales compensation plans to encourage more profitable business, and we continued to segment our customers by size ensuring better utilization of resources," said Dendy Young, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of GTSI. "These changes, coupled with the improvements made in operations, give our company a strong positioning for the federal government's peak season in the second half of the year." "After a weak January and a slow February, our business strengthened in March resulting in a good bookings quarter, up almost 9% over last year," said Young. As a company that generates 95% of its sales from the federal government, it is important to note that GTSI generally achieves two-thirds of its sales during the second half of the year due to the federal government fiscal year-end of September 30th. FIRST QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS ------------------------ o Created the Physical Security Alliance (PSA) bringing together 20 partners to develop an open, standard, secure, reliable, and trusted physical security protection system solution. o Launched `STORM' (Secure, Tough, Online/Offline, Reliable, and Mobile), a joint solution designed in conjunction with Panasonic Computer Solutions Company and Senforce Technologies Inc., to support Department of Defense's Wireless Directive DoDD 8100.2 for mobile technology usage in government agencies and organizations. o Named Fujitsu's "Fastest Growing Service Star Alliance Reseller." o Kicked off corporate advertising campaign with the brand promise of "I Rely on GTSI" focusing on GTSI's ability to deliver reliability, expertise and value to customers. o Selected Scot T. Edwards to become GTSI's Chief Marketing Officer. MARCH 2004 MONTHLY RESULTS -------------------------- Sales for March 2004 were $67.9 million, representing a 10.9% decrease of average daily sales from March 2003 of $69.6 million. Month-end total backlog for March was $98 million or a 35.7% increase versus $72.2 million for the month-end March 2003. Monthly bookings for March were a record $82.8 million or a 33.3% increase versus $56.7 million for the same period last year (see attached table). FINANCIAL POSITION ------------------ Tom Mutryn, GTSI's Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, "GTSI's double digit gross margin expansion is mainly the result of higher vendor volume incentive payments. The Company continued to maintain tight control on headcount expenses, and the 10.1% increase in operating expense was largely driven by increased employee expenses and outside services expenses related to our SOX 404 efforts, our new ERP system implementation, and our "I Rely on GTSI" marketing campaign. The company continues to enjoy a solid balance sheet with no long-term debt and $21.5 million in cash on hand at the end of the first quarter."
