„We are pleased with the progress the Company is making this year in its financial performance and on its strategic plan,“ said John Slusser, president and chief executive officer. „Revenue has increased on a sequential and year-over-year basis and the Company has reported two sequential quarters of GAAP profitability. We are seeing important market dynamics in the telecommunications signaling space. Many service providers will need to provision next-generation Diameter signaling network architectures as well as ensure the ongoing reliability and cost effectiveness of existing SS7 signaling networks that are built upon an ever-growing list of discontinued, unsupported equipment. The unique ability of our SEGway® Signaling product portfolio to provide a state-of-the-art, unified end solution set encompassing both Diameter and SS7 signaling solidly positions PT to address these market dynamics. Our energies are squarely focused on pursuing this exciting market opportunity.“
As part of its strategic realignment, which was initiated during the fourth quarter 2012, PT is well along in transitioning out of the general OEM platform business through a last-time buy and build program which ends for most customers at the end of 2013 and continues through 2014 for select customers. As of September 30, 2013, 85% of the last-time buy and build orders have been shipped, which amounted to approximately $5.9 million in revenue year-to-date.
PT (NASDAQ: PTIX) is a global supplier of advanced, high availability network communications solutions. Its SEGway® Diameter and SS7 Signaling Systems provide tightly integrated signaling and advanced routing capabilities and applications that uniquely span the mission critical demands of both existing and next-generation 4G LTE and IMS telecommunications networks. The Company-s IPnexus® Multi-Protocol Gateways and Servers enable a broad range of IP-interworking in data acquisition, sensor, radar, and control applications for aviation, weather and other infrastructure networks. Established in 1981, PT is headquartered in Rochester, NY and markets and sells its products worldwide through its direct sales organization as well as through channel partners that include major telecommunications equipment vendors, government prime contractors and value-added resellers.
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a „safe harbor“ for certain forward-looking statements. This press release contains forward-looking statements which reflect the Company-s current views with respect to future events and financial performance, within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is subject to the safe harbor provisions of those Sections. The Company-s future operating results are subject to various risks and uncertainties and could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements and may be affected by various trends and factors which are beyond the Company-s control. These risks and uncertainties include, among other factors, business and economic conditions, rapid technological changes accompanied by frequent new product introductions, competitive pressures, dependence on key customers and the potential loss of key customers, inability to gauge order flows from customers, fluctuations in quarterly and annual results, the reliance on a limited number of third party suppliers, limitations of PT-s manufacturing capacity and arrangements, the protection of PT-s proprietary technology, errors or defects in our products, the effects of pending or threatened litigation, the dependence on key personnel, changes in critical accounting estimates, potential impairments related to investments, foreign regulations, possible loss or significant curtailment of significant government contracts or subcontracts, possible effects related to compliance with new conflict-free mineral regulations, and potential material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. In addition, during weak or uncertain economic periods, customers- visibility deteriorates causing delays in the placement of their orders. These factors often result in a substantial portion of PT-s revenue being derived from orders placed within a quarter and shipped in the final month of the same quarter. Forward-looking statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent audited Consolidated Financial Statements, the Notes thereto, Risk Factors, and Management-s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company, as contained in the Company-s Annual Report on Form 10-K, and other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
As a supplement to the GAAP-based consolidated financial statements contained in this press release, the Company is providing a presentation of non-GAAP financial measures which can be useful to investors to gain an overall understanding of the Company-s current financial performance. Specifically, the Company believes the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors by excluding certain expenses the Company believes are not indicative of its core operating results. The non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain expenses such as the effects of (a) amortization of purchased intangible assets, (b) impairment charge – capitalized software, (c) stock-based compensation costs, and (d) restructuring costs.
Management utilizes a number of different financial measures, both GAAP and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of our business, in making operating decisions and forecasting and planning for future periods. We also consider the use of the non-GAAP financial measures to be helpful in assessing various aspects of our business operations.
Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered a substitute for the corresponding GAAP financial information and should not be considered in isolation from measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool and that these measures should only be used to evaluate the Company-s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP financial information.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures is included herein.
