INTEGRAL SYSTEMS ANNOUNCES RESULTS
FOR 2005 AND GUIDANCE FOR 2006
Company Has Its Best Year Ever
Integral Increases Cash Dividend Payment by 25%
Lanham, Md., December 12, 2005 — Integral Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: ISYS) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005. Revenues for the quarter were $27.1 million, up from $25.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004—an increase of approximately 8% and the highest quarterly revenue total in Company history. Excluding a one time, non-cash compensation charge related to the acceleration of stock option share vesting of approximately $1.2 million, operating income decreased slightly, declining to $3.5 million for the current quarter, versus $3.6 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004. The acceleration of the vesting of these options enabled the Company to avoid related future non-cash compensation expense to be recorded upon adoption of SFAS 123R of approximately $4.1 million.
Net income (exclusive of the one-time charge) was flat at $2.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004, while EPS was down slightly during the same periods, falling from $.24 per share to $.22 per share. Including the stock option charge, operating income, net income and earnings per share were $2.3 million, $1.7 million and $.16 respectively during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005.
For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, revenues increased to $97.7 million compared to $90.3 million last year. Excluding the stock option charge, operating income rose to $11.0 million from $10.4 million, while net income for fiscal year 2005 was $7.5 million, or $0.71 per share, compared to $6.8 million, or $0.67 per share, for fiscal year 2004. Without the stock option charge, fiscal year 2005 revenue, operating income, net income and earnings per share exceeded Company annual historic records (all previously from fiscal year 2004) by 8%, 6%, 11% and 6%, respectively. Since the Company previously forecast that operating results for fiscal year 2005 would be flat when compared to results for fiscal year 2004, the Company has also exceeded its guidance by these same percentages, when excluding the one-time option charge.
Operating income, net income and earnings per share were $9.8 million, 6.8 million and $.64, respectively, when including the one-time stock option charge.
“Although our fourth quarter profits were down slightly from last year’s fourth quarter, I am pleased that we were able to post our best year ever financially, and that we were able to beat investor guidance published early last fiscal year,” commented Steven R. Chamberlain, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our Air Force business in our core command and control segment and our RT Logic subsidiary continue to post outstanding results for the Company in terms of both revenue growth and profitability.

RT Logic surpassed last year’s record performance with operating income of $9.4 million on revenue of $32.5 million,” remarked Chamberlain.
Looking forward to fiscal year 2006 in its entirety, the Company is anticipating revenue, operating income, net income, and earnings per common share to increase by 15%, 30%, 30% and 30%, respectively, over fiscal year 2005 results.
“Although our guidance for fiscal year 2006 is somewhat aggressive, I am reasonably confident of achieving these goals,” commented Chamberlain. “Our backlog of $243 million (inclusive of currently unexercised contract options) is at an all-time high, while our sales pipeline is also quite promising and robust. Our discontinued Antenna Division is truly winding down and the $1.0 million of fiscal 2005 losses from that entity should be eliminated in 2006. As recently announced, we closed on the purchase of Lumistar, LLC in early October, and we believe that this acquisition should be immediately accretive to fiscal 2006 operating results,” remarked Chamberlain.
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $.05 per share, an increase of $.01 per share or 25% when compared to the cash dividend payment made on September 28, 2005. The dividend is scheduled to be paid on or about January 4, 2006 to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 19, 2005.
