Vuance Ltd. Announces Third Quarter 2011 Results

Hertzliya Israel – January 10, 2012. Vuance Ltd. (VUNCF:PK) , a leading provider of Wireless Identification Solutions, completed its unaudited condensed financial statements for the nine month period and quarter ending September 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.

Nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 and third Quarter 2011 Selected Unaudited Financial Results

Revenues for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 increased 9% to $6.0 million compared to $5.5 million in the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. The increase compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 was largely driven by an increase in revenues from the multi-ID division. Revenues for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011 decreased 15% to $1.9 million compared to $2.3 million in the third quarter of 2010. The decrease compared to the third quarter of 2010 was largely driven by a decrease in revenues from the multi-ID division.

Gross profit decreased 15% to $3.5 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011compared to $4.1 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. Gross profit margin for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 was 58% compared to 74% in the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. Gross profit decreased 29% to $1.2 million for the third quarter compared to $1.7 million for the third quarter of 2010. Gross profit margin for the third quarter was 62% compared to 74% in the third 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 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 were $2.7 million, compared to $5.4 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, a 50% decrease. Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2011 were $1.2 million, compared to $2.1 million for the third quarter of 2010. The decrease compared to the third quarter of 2010 was mainly due to a decrease in commission expenses associated with the decreased revenues, and due to a 73% decrease in general and administrative expenses.

The Company reported an operating income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 of $0.8 million compared to an operating loss of $1.3 million in the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. The Company reported an operating income for the third quarter of $38,000 compared to an operating loss of $410,000 in the third quarter of 2010. The change from operating loss to operating income was largely driven by the decrease in operating expenses, as described above.

Net income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 was $16,000, or $0.00 basic and diluted income per share (based on a weighted average of 9.3 and 10.3 million shares, respectively) compared to a net loss of $2,027,000, or $0.35 basic and diluted loss per share (based on a weighted average of 5.8 million shares) in the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. Net loss for the third quarter was $230,000, or $0.02 basic and diluted loss per share (based on a weighted average of 9.8 million shares) compared to a net loss of $629,000, or $0.10 basic and diluted loss per share (based on a weighted average of 6.0 million shares) in the third 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. EFPlaceholder
