Company Reports $1.3M in Profit and Software Revenue Growth of 86% for 2007 Fiscal Second Quarter Over 2006 Fiscal Second Quarter
AUSTIN, TX -- 03/01/2007 -- Forgent™ Networks (NASDAQ: FORG) today announced results for the 2007 fiscal second quarter ended Jan. 31, 2007. For the quarter, the company reported net income of approximately $1.3 million. Highlights for the quarter include:
- -- Grew NetSimplicity software revenue 86% over the quarter one year ago and 6% over the prior quarter - -- Realized $2.9M in cash from a patent sale to Tandberg Telecom AS. - -- Grew cash and investments from $15.0M to $18.0M, an increase of 20% over the prior quarter - -- Held operating expenses to $2.7M, essentially flat with the prior quarter - -- Increased working capital from $14.1M to approximately $15.1M, an increase of 7% over the prior quarter - -- Achieved profitability for the second consecutive quarter"We see continued progress with respect to the litigation of the '746 patent and are encouraged by the recent claims construction ruling and that the May 2007 trial remains on schedule. Additionally, we are pleased with the continued growth of our NetSimplicity software business and we remain optimistic about the continued growth prospects for this business," commented Richard Snyder, chairman and CEO of Forgent.
Intellectual Property
U.S. Patent No. 6,285,746 (the '746 Patent)
Forgent has litigation pending against 12 companies for infringement of its '746 Patent in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Tyler Division. A jury trial is scheduled for May 2007. The '746 Patent relates to a computer controlled video system that allows playback during recording.
Software
NetSimplicity software revenue increased by 6% to over $1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, as compared to the prior quarter. This was the fourth consecutive quarter of revenue growth for NetSimplicity. NetSimplicity's growth can be attributed to several factors including an overall strong performance by the sales organization, the growing customer base investing further with additional purchases and upgrades, and a growing average sales price due to the penetration of larger accounts.
Fiscal Second Quarter Results
Revenue was approximately $1.0 million for the 2007 fiscal second quarter compared to $9.1 million for the 2007 fiscal first quarter. Overall operating expenses of $2.7 million increased by approximately $50,000 from the prior quarter. The company reported net income of $1.3 million or $0.05 per share for the second fiscal quarter of 2007, as compared to net income $2.7 million or $0.11 per share for the first quarter of 2007. Cash and investments were $18.0 million for the quarter.
Outlook
Forgent expects to generate additional IP licensing revenue in the 2007 fiscal year. However, predicting the timing and amounts will be complicated because of the uncertainty of licensing negotiations and due to the ongoing litigation. In addition, we believe NetSimplicity will continue to be a growth business for Forgent.
