Vuance Ltd. Announces Second Quarter 2011 Results

Qadima Israel – September 12, 2011. Vuance Ltd. (VUNCF:PK) , a leading provider of Wireless Identification Solutions, completed its unaudited condensed financial statements for the quarter ending June 30, 2011.

The Company has focused its R&D, sales and marketing efforts on its core competencies, which include Active RFID technology, PureRFid Suite and Wireless Identification solutions, while continuing to perform its multi-year contracts, including for the provision of national biometric ID and other multi-ID issuing and control systems.

Second Quarter 2011 Selected Unaudited Financial Results

Revenues from continuing operations for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011 increased 14% to $2.2 million compared to $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2010. The increase compared to the second quarter of 2010 was largely driven by an increase in revenue from the multi-ID division.

Gross profit from continuing operations decreased 14% to $1.2 million for the second quarter compared to $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2010, Gross profit margin for the second quarter was 57% compared to 75% in the second quarter of 2010. The decrease in gross profit margins was attributed to changes in the Company’s mix of revenues , in the multi-ID division.

Total operating expenses from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2011 were $0.5 million, compared to $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2010. The decrease compared to the second quarter of 2010 was mainly due to a decrease in general and administrative expenses and other income recorded in the present quarter, of which $778,000 reflects the conversion of $1,000,000 of debt owed to Sigma Wave Ltd., the Company's major creditor (and following the conversion, the Company's largest shareholder).

The Company reported an operating income from continuing operations for the second quarter of $721,000 compared to an operating loss from continuing operations of $407,000 in the second quarter of 2010. The change from operating loss in the second quarter of 2010 to operating income in the second quarter of 2011 was largely driven by the decrease in operating expenses, as described above.

Net income for the second quarter was $419,000, or $0.06 basic income per share (based on a weighted average of 7.3 million shares) compared to a net loss of $540,000, or $0.10 loss per basic and diluted share (based on a weighted average of 5.7 million shares) in the second quarter of 2010.

The Company's unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of operations. The application of the going concern basis is dependent upon the Company having sufficient available cash resources and achieving profitable operations to generate sufficient cash flows to fund continued operations. Should the Company fail to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, it will require additional financing to remain a going concern. The reported unaudited condensed financial statements are in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or US GAAP.

Debt Arrangement

The Central Area District Court in Israel decided not to approve the Company's current application to approve the creditor arrangement which had previously been approved by a majority of the Company's shareholders and creditors, substantially due to an objection raised by one of the Company's secured creditors, Special Situations Funds ("SSF"), which holds a convertible bond for approximately $965,000, including interest.

The Company is seeking to facilitate a settlement with SSF through a certain third party, pursuant to which SSF will assign its bond to the third party in consideration for a cash payment. Following such assignment, if any, the Company intends to file a revised application to the District Court for its approval of the proposed arrangement for all the existing creditors of the Company, including Sigma and SSF's third party assignee, which has indicated its agreement to the terms of the arrangement.
