AuthentiDate Holding Corp. Announces Third Quarter and Nine Month Results
SCHENECTADY, N.Y.
May 10, 2004
AuthentiDate Holding Corp. (Nasdaq:ADAT) announced today that revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 was $6,790,398 compared to $8,105,870 for the same quarter last year. Revenue for the nine-month period ending March 31, 2004 was $14,090,689 compared to $19,491,021 for the same nine-month period last year. The Company noted, however, that deferred revenue increased by $709,000 to over $2.2 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2004.
The Company also showed a strong improvement in its balance sheet due to its receipt of $73.7 million in gross proceeds from the sale of 5,360,370 shares of common stock during the quarter.
The Company stated that a reduction in low margin hardware sales by the Company's DJS Marketing Group subsidiary contributed to the sales decline in the quarter. Revenue for the AuthentiDate segment consisting of AuthentiDate US, AuthentiDate AG, and TracMed were $416,000 for the quarter. In addition, the increase in deferred revenue for this segment was $709,000. The combination of sales and increase in deferred revenue for the quarter in the AuthentiDate segment was $1,125,000.
The net loss for the third quarter ended March 31, 2004 was $2,565,345 or $0.09 per share compared to a net loss of $3,009,758 or $0.15 per share for the same quarter a year ago. The Company reported a net loss of $12,089,053 or $0.49 per share and $6,958,179 or $0.36 per share for the respective nine-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Both DocStar and DJS each remained profitable for both the quarter and nine-month periods. During the nine-month period the Company converted all of its convertible debt into equity which resulted in a non-cash expense of $5.9 million or $0.24 per share during the nine month period. Without the expense related to this event, the loss for the nine month period would have been $0.25 per share compared to $0.36 per share last year.
"This quarter was important for AuthentiDate in two major ways. First, we dramatically increased the strength of our balance sheet and began using that strength to recruit talent, develop our strategic relationships and began to increase our marketing effort. Although the results of these efforts have not yet become apparent, we believe that they will result in the type of traction we are seeing in AuthentiDate International and TracMed," stated John Botti, AuthentiDate Chairman and CEO.
"Also in this quarter, we saw the acceptance of our TracMed technology in the Durable Medical Equipment industry. After completing the agreement with the American Association for Homecare, we were successful in signing, amongst others, both Apria and the MED Group as customers," Botti said. "These organizations were signed late in the quarter, and their full impact has not been realized. We feel that the strength in this segment will continue and grow into the current quarter, and that TracMed is well on course to deliver on its promised potential and serve as a template for our future strategy and penetration of other vertical markets."
