"Once again we delivered solid quarter and calendar year results driven by
our focus on execution," said Guoqiang Lin, Pansoft's CEO. "We continued to
see large orders from our long-term customers and their subsidiaries. Our
centralized accounting system has been implemented at our two largest clients,
PetroChina and Sinopec, and is also in the process of being integrated with
other ERP systems within their operations, which should provide continued
demand for our services. In addition, we have taken a number of initiatives
to penetrate into new markets and win new clients and have achieved
preliminary success, although yet to significantly impact our total revenue.
We believe that our strategy to expand our business operations and diversify
our customer base will position Pansoft well to achieve our long-term growth
and profitability objectives."
"We enjoyed healthy top and bottom line growth in the second quarter of
fiscal year 2010 and over the last twelve months. Adjusted EPS increased by
24% year-over-year driven by our exceptional financial and operational
performance," added Allen Zhang, Pansoft's Chief Financial Officer. "Looking
ahead, increasing investments in engineering capabilities, sales and marketing
efforts, and system development efficiencies will continue to be key drivers
for Pansoft."
Financial Results Highlights for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2009
Total revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2009 was $4.9
million, a 47% increase from $3.3 million in the three months ended December
31, 2008. The increase in revenue was due to the increased number and value
of contracts for development and integration services.
Cost of sales was $2.3 million, an increase of 38% from $1.7 million in
the three months ended December 31, 2008. Cost of sales increased at a slower
pace than revenue as a result of cost control measures designed to contain
expenses.
Gross profit in the quarter was $2.6 million, an increase of 56% from $1.7
million in three months ended December 31, 2008. Gross margin was 53%,
compared to 50% in the three months ended December 31, 2008.
Operating expenses were $0.5 million, a decrease of 13% from $0.6 million
in the three months ended December 31, 2008.
Operating profit was $2.1 million, an increase of 93% from $1.1 million in
the three months ended December 31, 2008. Operating margin was 42% compared
to 32% in three months ended December 31, 2008.
Net income was $1.9 million, an increase of 94% from $1.0 million in the
corresponding period in 2008. The significant increases in our operating and
net profits were due to a substantial increase in revenues from our major
contracts and reduction of operating expenses. Diluted earnings per share
were $0.36, an increase of 64% from $0.22 in the corresponding period in 2008.
Adjusted Diluted EPS excluding share-based compensation expenses was $0.42, an
increase of 68% compared to $0.25 for three months ended December 31, 2008.
Financial Results Highlights for the Twelve Months ended December 31, 2009
Pansoft has changed its fiscal year end to June 30. A transition report
on Form 20-F will be filed for the six-month transition period ended June 30,
2009. The results for the six-month period ended December 31, 2009 will be
included in the annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ending June 30,
2010. To further assist shareholders in understanding the transition to the
new fiscal year, pro-forma operating results for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2009 are provided below.
Total revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 was $10.0
million, an increase of 46% from $6.9 million in the twelve months ended
December 31, 2008. The increase in revenue was mainly due to increase in
number of contracts as well as size of contracts signed with our major
long-term clients. This is consistent with Pansoft's strategy to become an
important part of the clients' IT platform and solicit their IT expansion
projects.
Cost of sales was $5.1 million, an increase of 49% from $3.4 million in
the twelve months ended in 2008. Cost of sales increased at a faster rate
than revenue growth due to a significant increase in the number of employees
as a part of our corporate expansion strategy and technical team enhancement.
Gross profit was $5.0 million, an increase of 43% from $3.5 million in the
twelve months ended in 2008. Gross margin was 50%, compared to 51% for the
twelve months ended December 31, 2008.
Operating expenses were $1.9 million, an increase of 100% from $0.9
million in the twelve months ended in 2008. Operating expenses consist
primarily of general and administrative expenses, selling expenses,
professional fees and stock option expenses. The increase in operating
expenses in 2009 was mainly due to the increase in stock-based compensation
and public listing expenses, which accounted for 34% and 20% of total
operating expenses, respectively.
Operating profit was $3.1 million, an increase of 22% from $2.6 million in
the twelve months ended December 31, 2008. Operating margin was 31%, compared
to 37% in the twelve months ended December 31, 2008.
Net income was $3.0 million, an increase of 31% from $2.3 million in the
corresponding period in 2008. Adjusted net income, excluding stock-based
compensation totaled $3.7 million, an increase of 46% compared to $2.5 million
in the twelve months ended December 31, 2008. Diluted earnings per share were
$0.55, an increase of 10% from $0.50 in the corresponding period in 2008.
Adjusted diluted EPS excluding share-based compensation expenses was $0.67, an
increase of 24% from $0.54 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008.
As of December 31, 2009, Pansoft's cash and cash equivalents are $14.7
million, an increase of 21% compared to $12.2 million on December 31, 2008.
The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily a result of increased
collection of accounts receivable in the last calendar quarter of 2009. Cash
flow from operating activities in 2009 was $2.8 million, an increase of 80%
compared to $1.5 million from the twelve months ended December 31, 2008.
Business Outlook
Despite the worldwide financial crisis and economic recession in 2009,
Pansoft has delivered strong performance, including a 46% increase in revenue
in the twelve months ended December 31, 2009, exceeding its previous guidance
of 40% revenue growth. In addition, Pansoft's net profit increased by 31% and
adjusted net income increased by 46%.
The Company expects its customization, integration services and solutions
will continue to win major contracts from large customers. Going forward the
Company intends to expand its business by reorganizing its technical service
and development force by establishing four new business departments with the
objective to penetrate into new markets and industries. Pansoft's management
believes that demand for its services will continue to grow as the Company
leverages its advanced technology and application development expertise within
the system integration services domain. Pansoft expects to achieve 40%
organic growth in revenue year-over-year for the fiscal year ending in June 30,
2010.
"In addition, the Company has RMB 100 million, or approximately $14.7
million, in cash or cash equivalent on its balance sheet. This cash reserve
allows the Company to focus aggressively on potential acquisition targets as
part of its strategy to expand into additional industries," said Hugh Wang,
Chairman of Board.
Adjusted Financial Measures
This release contains adjusted financial measures. These adjusted
financial measures, which are used as measures of the Company's performance,
should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, measures of the
Company's financial performance prepared in accordance with United States
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The Company's adjusted
financial measures may be defined differently than similar terms used by other
companies. Accordingly, care should be exercised in understanding how the
Company defines its adjusted financial measures.
Reconciliations of the Company's adjusted measures to the nearest GAAP
measures are set forth in the section below titled "Reconciliation of adjusted
financials to GAAP Results." These adjusted measures include adjusted gross
profit, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted income from operations, non-GAAP
net income, adjusted diluted net income per share and adjusted gross margin.
The Company's management uses adjusted financial measures to gain an
understanding of the Company's comparative operating performance (when
comparing such results with previous periods or forecasts) and future
prospects. The Company's adjusted financial measures exclude certain special
items, including stock-based compensation charge from its internal financial
statements for purposes of its internal budgets. Adjusted financial measures
are used by the Company's management in their financial and operating
decision-making, because management believes they reflect the Company's
ongoing business in a manner that allows meaningful period-to-period
comparisons. The Company's management believes that these adjusted financial
measures provide useful information to investors and others in the following
ways: 1) in understanding and evaluating the Company's current operating
performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does, if
they so choose, and 2) in comparing in a consistent manner the Company's
current financial results with the Company's past financial results.
The Company's management believes excluding stock-based compensation from
its adjusted financial measures is useful for itself and investors, as such
expense will not result in future cash payment and is not an indicator used by
management to measure the Company's core operating results and business
outlook.
The adjusted financial measures have limitations. They do not include all
items of income and expense that affect the Company's operations. Specifically,
these adjusted financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP,
may not be comparable to adjusted financial measures used by other companies
and, with respect to the adjusted financial measures that exclude certain
items under GAAP, do not reflect any benefit that such items may confer to the
Company. Management compensates for these limitations by also considering the
Company's financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP.
