PCTEL NETS $1.1 MILLION IN SECOND QUARTER
COMPANY ACHIEVES $2.9 MILLION IN WIRELESS AND LICENSING REVENUE
CHICAGO, IL -- JULY 29, 2003 -- PCTEL, Inc. (NASDAQ: PCTI), a leading provider
of wireless solutions and access technology, today announced financial results
for the second quarter ending June 30, 2003. Total revenue was $10.2 million for
the second quarter of 2003 compared to $9.6 million reported in the second
quarter of 2002. Net income for the second quarter of 2003 was $1.1 million, or
$0.05 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $(0.1) million, or $(0.01)
per diluted share reported in the second quarter of 2002. Second quarter 2003
results included a $4.3 million gain on sale of its HSP modem line and a
restructuring charge of $2.5 million.
During the second quarter ending June 30, 2003, PCTEL sold its HSP modem product
line to Conexant Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CNXT). Total revenue in the quarter
included $7.3 million related to HSP modems up to the time of the sale, and $2.9
million related to the company's ongoing wireless and licensing products. A year
ago in the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the company had no revenue in wireless
products and $0.7 million in licensing revenue.
"We are pleased to report revenue from all our new business activities --
licensing, Wi-Fi, and software-defined radios," said Marty Singer, PCTEL's
Chairman and CEO. "In addition to our financial results, our Segue(TM) Roaming
Client achieved significant traction in the industry as a result of our recently
announced agreement with AT&T Wireless. With the divestiture of the HSP modem
product line, we are now sharply focused on our wireless and intellectual
property initiatives. We will leverage our strong balance sheet to invest
aggressively in these activities and our shareholders should anticipate
additional acquisitions and elevated product development and legal expenses as
we build momentum for 2004.
Cash and short-term investments ended the quarter at $111.8 million, an increase
of $10.7 million from the first quarter of 2003. Both the initial cash received
from the HSP modem product line divesture and employee stock options exercised
during the quarter positively impacted the cash position. The company
anticipates an additional $4 million in cash from the HSP modem product line
divestiture in the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2003. As of June 30, 2003,
the company has repurchased 1.281 million out of the 2.0 million shares
authorized by the board of Directors under its two share buyback programs.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2003, 20,000 shares were repurchased under
these programs.
