NICE Systems Reports First Quarter 2004 Results

Highlights:

  • Revenue of $58.3 million, up 13% from Q1 2003
  • Q1 GAAP EPS of $0.32 fully diluted; fully diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.14, slightly higher than analysts` estimates
  • Cash and equivalents grew to $127.2 million from $107.3 million at yearend

Ra`anana, Israel, May 5, 2004 - NICE Systems (NASDAQ: NICE), a worldwide leader of multimedia recording solutions, applications and related professional services for business interaction management, today announced results for the quarter ending March 31, 2004.

Revenue for the first quarter of 2004 was $58.3 million, down 6% sequentially due to normal seasonal factors, and up 13% from the same quarter of 2003.

On a GAAP basis, net income was $5.9 million, or $0.32 per fully diluted share, compared with $1.9 million in the fourth quarter, or $0.11 per fully diluted share. In the first quarter of 2003, GAAP net income was $209,000, or $0.01 per fully diluted share.

Net income from continuing operations in Q1 was $2.6 million, or $0.14 per fully diluted share, compared to $1.6 million, or $0.09 per fully diluted share, in Q4 of 2003, and $39,000, or $0.00 per fully diluted share in Q1 for 2003.

Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations, which excludes restructuring and other special charges, was $2.6 million, or $0.14 per fully diluted share in the first quarter of 2004, $7.0 million, or $0.39 per fully diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2003 and $483,000, or $0.03 per share, in the first quarter of 2003.

Commenting on the quarter, Haim Shani, president and CEO of NICE, said, "Revenue from our security-related businesses grew 15% sequentially, mainly as a result of very strong performance in public safety. The contact center business was very strong in Europe. This, together with the increase in service revenues, helped offset the impact of the normal seasonal weakness and long sales cycles on some large deals."

Gross margin was 53.8%, a sequential decline from the 55.5% reported in Q4 of 2003, due primarily to lower volume and product mix. Gross margin in Q1 of 2003 was 50.2%.

"As planned, we increased our operating expenses as we began to accelerate the transition to a broader, more solution-oriented business model in both major sectors of our business," continued Mr. Shani. "We are preparing ourselves to engage in more consultative selling as part of this transition."

_ 4 _

Excluding restructuring and special charges, operating expenses increased in Q1, both sequentially and versus the same quarter a year ago, reflecting increased spending on new strategic initiatives. Therefore, on a non-GAAP basis, the company reported operating income for Q1 of $2.0 million, compared with $6.7 million in Q4 of 2003, and $11,000 in Q1 of 2003. On a GAAP basis, the company reported a Q1 operating profit of $2.0 million, compared with $1.4 million in Q4, and an operating loss of $ 433,000 in Q1 of 2003.

Total cash and equivalents at March 31, 2004 rose to $127.2 million, compared with $107.3 million at December 31, 2003. DSO for the first quarter fell to 69 days, from 74 days at yearend 2003. This represents a record for the company.

Outlook

Commenting on the outlook, Mr. Shani said, "We expect revenues in Q2 to grow to between $60 million and $62 million, a 10-13% increase from Q2 2003, with EPS between $0.22 and $0.25.

"We just announced two new products that will enhance our suite of digital video solutions. In addition, we are looking forward with great anticipation to launching our completely new end-to-end interaction analytics solution for contact center and enterprise customers. We believe it will enable our customers to gain previously unavailable insight into their business which will drive significant performance improvement. We have received great feedback from customers who have previewed the system, and the availability of new products in both major business areas plus our additional investments in sales and marketing are expected to bear fruit in the second-half of the year and more significantly in 2005."
