I.D. Systems, Inc. Reports First Quarter Financial Results
HACKENSACK, N.J., May 7, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- I.D. Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:IDSY) today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2008. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008, were $4.3 million, compared to $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. GAAP net loss for the quarter was $2.0 million, or ($0.19) per basic and diluted share, compared to GAAP net loss of $1.5 million, or ($.13) per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2007.
Non-GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2008 was $1.2 million, or ($0.11) per basic and diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net loss of $695,000, or ($0.06) per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2007. Non-GAAP results were calculated by adjusting GAAP net results for the impact of stock-based compensation, which was $785,000 for the first quarter of 2008 and $767,000 for the first quarter of 2007. A table entitled "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" is included in this press release.
"We continue to earn repeat business from core customers, most notably the U.S. Postal Service, for whom our unique wireless industrial vehicle management technology provides significant economic benefits," said Jeffrey Jagid, I.D. Systems' chairman and chief executive officer. "At the same time, our expanded sales and marketing team continues to focus on diversifying our customer base and sources of revenue. For example, we added Continental Tire North America, Inc. to our customer base during the quarter. We have made significant progress building our sales pipeline, through both direct efforts and indirect channel partners, and we remain optimistic about reaching our financial goals for 2008, including $24 million in revenues."
For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, gross profit margin was 48.8%, compared to 48.5% for the corresponding period in 2007.
"We made several strategic moves during the first quarter that should help us achieve our financial goals," continued Mr. Jagid. "We came to terms on a marketing agreement, finalized in April, 2008, with European supply chain systems integrator Zetes Industries. We believe that the ability of our technology to optimize material handling operations fits well with Zetes' portfolio of supply chain solutions, which include voice-directed work, bar coding and RFID, and that Zetes will be an outstanding partner in marketing our products and services in Europe. At the same time, we finalized details for the acquisition of the PowerKey brand of industrial vehicle monitoring products, also completed in April, 2008. This transaction provides I.D. Systems with a broader base of quality customers -- like Caterpillar, Owens Corning, Visteon and Whirlpool -- and more product offerings in the entry-level segment of our market."
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter were $4.3 million, including $649,000 in stock-based compensation, compared to $3.8 million, including $573,000 in stock-based compensation, for the first quarter in 2007. The increase was attributable primarily to increased payroll and related expenses resulting from the hiring of additional employees to position the company for growth. Research and development expenditures for the first quarter of 2008 were $711,000, including $115,000 in stock-based compensation, compared to $706,000, including $183,000 in stock-based compensation, for the corresponding period in 2007. Interest income for the quarter was $826,000, compared to $792,000 for the same period in 2007.
As of March 31, 2008, I.D. Systems had $58.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, and $35.9 million of working capital, compared to $65.0 million and $31.9 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2007.
Highlights of the first quarter ended March 31, 2008, included:

vehicle management system throughout the United States.

-- In March 2008, I.D. Systems was notified that its patent
application entitled "Robust, Wireless Communications System
Architecture and Asset Management Applications Performed Thereon"
would be granted. U.S. Patent number 7,356,494, describing the

April 8, 2008.
-- I.D. Systems completed due diligence for its April, 2008
acquisition of PowerKey, the industrial vehicle monitoring
products division of International Electronics, Inc., and
simultaneously planned the launch of a new wireless product termed
PowerKeyPLUS(tm) targeted at the entry-level segment of the
industrial vehicle management market, as announced on April 21,
2008.
-- The company came to terms on a strategic agreement, finalized in
April 2008, with Zetes Industries (Euronext Brussels: ZTS), a

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement its financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, I.D. Systems provides certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP net income/loss and non-GAAP net income/loss 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 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. Reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure of all non-GAAP measures included in this press release can be found in the financial tables included in this press release.
