GTSI Reports Second Quarter Results
Company experiences major disruptions with ERP conversion
CHANTILLY, VA. – August 9, 2005 – GTSIÒ Corp. (Nasdaq: GTSI), a leading government technology solutions aggregator, today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, and monthly sales (see attached tables).
For the second quarter 2005, GTSI reported sales of $160.7 million, a 32.8% decline over the same period a year ago, and a net loss of $8.1 million ($0.88 per diluted share). Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $29.4 million, up 19.4%, driven primarily by the intense efforts to shore up GTSI’s supply chain operations, additional personnel associated with the company’s growth initiative, as well as direct and indirect expenses related to the implementation of an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system.
Gross margin dollars were down $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2005 versus the second quarter of 2004, while gross margin percentage was up 1.3 percentage points for the same comparative periods.
“Clearly, the quarter’s financial results were disappointing and failed, by a large margin, to meet our expectations. We endured tremendous challenges throughout our company as we implemented a new ERP system, and encountered difficulties in the delivery of product to our customers,” said Dendy Young, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of GTSI. “While the ERP data conversion went well, the company experienced numerous fulfillment and distribution problems. Our sales organization, passionate on behalf of their customers, diverted their attention from new business to hand-managing orders through our new system. Throughout the process I have been impressed with the dedication and commitment of my fellow GTSI employees. And I am extremely grateful for the patience our customers have shown during this painful period.”
“Recent operations and bookings results show signs of stability after three very difficult months,” added Mr. Young. “We feel that the most trying times are behind us and we are optimistic about the selling cycle ahead. GTSI management continues to be acutely aware of the current imbalance between gross margin dollars and SG&A. We are continuing to focus our attention and efforts on improving the overall productivity of the organization.”
Post-Peak Buying Season Plan
A new customer-focused plan is being designed by Scott Friedlander, Executive Vice President of Sales, who was recently promoted to oversee all sales activities for GTSI. The goal is to reconfigure the customer sales teams and technology practices into a “one team, one goal” by fully integrating all of the revenue and margin generating areas of GTSI. “For some time we have been operating our revenue generating teams in a multi-layered approach,” said Mr. Friedlander. “Our goal is to eliminate duplications within the organization and position our sales teams to focus more on selling and less on back office functions.” Tom Mutryn, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, added, “The ERP implementation exposed certain weaknesses in our supply chain processes. We have made needed investments by bringing in a
full complement of resources to tackle these problems and have addressed the critical issues. Going forward, the operations functions will be simplified to better support the revenue-generating team. In the end, the only thing that matters is efficiently filling orders for our customers. Working with Scott and his team, we are excited about the new direction for GTSI sales.”
Financial Update
Mr. Mutryn further commented, “GTSI continues to have a very strong balance sheet with no long-term debt and stockholders’ equity of $79.8 million ($8.63 per basic and diluted share (1)). In addition to the expenses associated with year-over-year personnel growth, the company continued to invest in company-wide training and the deployment of the new ERP system, which resulted in a significant impact on the bottom line.”
The company’s ERP system went live on April 19th.
“Due to a myriad of problems associated with extracting data from the new ERP platform, we suspended monthly reporting on May 31st,” said Mr. Mutryn. “We are now able to provide monthly results for April, May, and June.”
Sales for June 2005 were $86.3 million, representing a 7.2% decline of average daily sales from June 2004 of $93.0 million. Month-end total backlog for June was $129.1 million or a 16.7% decrease versus $155 million for the same period last year while net bookings for June 2005 totaled $79.4 million as compared to $115.1 million for June 2004, a 31% decline.
As a company that generates 90+% of its sales from the federal government end-users, it is important to note that GTSI generally achieves more than two-thirds of its sales during the second half of the year due to the federal government’s fiscal year-end of September 30th. Although we anticipate, based on the seasonality of our business, improved results in the third and fourth quarters of CY 2005, we expect our annual results to be a net loss for 2005.
Share Buyback Program
During the quarter GTSI embarked upon a share buyback program approved by its Board of Directors. The company has repurchased 280,120 shares as of July 31, 2005 at an average cost of $8.39. “The company stands ready to continue the share buyback program and to facilitate the purchase of blocks of stock,” said Mr. Mutryn. “We believe this is a wise use of our cash, while the market continues to undervalue our stock.”
If and when the company repurchases shares, it will do so on the open market, through block trades or otherwise. The amount of share repurchases, and the timing of purchases, will be based upon capital requirements, general business conditions, and other factors. The company may hold the repurchased shares in treasury for general corporate purchases, including issuances under GTSI’s employee stock purchase plan.
