ZixCorp’s new end-user commitments total $2.7 million, up 42% from the first quarter of 2003 and up 700% from the second quarter of 2002
DALLAS— July 24, 2003 — Zix Corporation (ZixCorp™), (Nasdaq: ZIXI), a global provider of e-messaging protection and transaction services, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2003. ZixCorp recorded a second quarter, 2003 net loss of $6.1 million, or $0.31 per share, compared to the first quarter of 2003 net loss of $6.8 million, or $0.36 per share, and a second quarter, 2002 net loss of $7.9 million, or $0.45 per share. Revenues were $1.0 million in the second quarter, compared to $639 thousand in the first quarter of 2003 and $303 thousand in the second quarter of 2002.
“ZixCorp is continuing to see exceptional growth within our target markets,” said John A. Ryan, ZixCorp’s chairman, president, and CEO. “The new end-user commitments for the second quarter total approximately $2.7 million. That number is up 42 percent from the first quarter of 2003 and up over 700 percent from the same quarter in 2002. End-user order backlog as of June 30, 2003, has grown to approximately $5.4 million, which includes deferred revenues on the company’s consolidated balance sheet. Approximately 40 percent of this backlog is expected to be recognized as revenue over the remaining two quarters of 2003.
“We have increased our end-user commitments in all service categories and we are starting to experience the benefits of increasing our customer base, which includes renewals as well as additional service purchases,” continued Ryan. “Two such examples are Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona which has expanded its secure e-messaging and protection management services and Humana, which has renewed for its second year.”
Business Highlights of the Quarter:
| • | Major transactions in the second quarter of 2003 exceeded 50, as compared to the 37 transactions in the first quarter of 2003. | ||
| • | ZixCorp earned the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants SysTrust™ certification for system reliability for effectiveness of controls over the security, availability, processing integrity, and confidentiality of ZixCorp’s ZixSecure Center™. | ||

Subsequent Event:
In July 2003, ZixCorp announced a strategic agreement whereby it acquired substantially all of the assets of Ohio-based PocketScript, LLC. The acquisition will enable ZixCorp to expand its services into the e-prescription marketplace. ZixCorp has partnered with Tufts Health Plan to offer a comprehensive e-prescribing program that will dramatically improve patient safety and reduce medical costs to Tufts Health Plan physicians.
Financial Highlights for the Quarter:
Revenues:Revenues were $1.0 million in the current quarter. The new end-user commitments for the second quarter total approximately $2.7 million. The end-user order backlog as of June 30, 2003, has grown to approximately $5.4 million, which includes deferred revenues on the company’s consolidated balance sheet. Approximately 40 percent of this backlog is expected to be recognized as revenue over the remaining two quarters of 2003.
Revenues in each of the 2002 and 2003 quarterly periods include $234,000 resulting from the pro rata recognition of certain minimum payments associated with ZixCorp’s marketing and distribution agreement with Entrust, Inc. In July 2003, the company and Entrust mutually agreed to terminate the agreement in exchange for a $700,000 cash payment received from Entrust. Also in July, the company terminated its distribution agreement for Japan with AOS Technologies, Inc., formerly AlphaOmega Soft Co., Ltd. As a result of the termination of these contracts, revenues for the third quarter of 2003 will include approximately $584,000, which represents the aggregate final revenues to be recognized under these contracts and aggregate scheduled minimum payments to have been received by the company through 2005, totaling $3,650,000, have been cancelled.
Capital Funding:During the second quarter, the company completed three transactions, which, in the aggregate, increased cash and marketable securities by approximately $7,546,000. In April 2003, in connection with the March 2003 warrant exercise and replacement agreement with the company’s former noteholders, the noteholders exercised their remaining warrants to purchase 305,899 shares of the company’s common stock for $1,266,000.
Separately, in June 2003, the company exchanged its $900,000 subordinated promissory note due in 2006 from Maptuit Corporation and one million shares of Maptuit’s common stock for $530,000 in cash and, on January 15, 2004, can require Maptuit to purchase the company’s remaining one million shares of Maptuit’s common stock for $70,000 in cash.

Lastly, in June 2003, the company completed private placements whereby the company received an aggregate of $5,750,000 in cash in exchange for 1,566,758 shares of common stock and currently exercisable warrants to purchase 231,855 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.96 per share.
Cash Utilization:At June 30, 2003, the cash and marketable securities position of the company was $12,951,000. Net cash used by continuing operations during the second quarter of 2003 was $4,456,000, as compared to $3,957,000 in the first quarter of 2003 and $4,380,000 in the second quarter of 2002. The recent trend for a reduced level of additions to property and equipment reversed in 2003 as expected, evidenced by purchases in the first and second quarters of 2003 totaling $576,000 and $570,000 respectively, as the company upgrades certain computer hardware in its data center and acquires computer equipment to satisfy customer orders for the company’s products and services, primarily ZixVPM® and ZixWorks.
