ARI ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Company posts strong operating cash flows
Milwaukee, Wis., March 17, 2011 – ARI (OTCBB:ARIS), a leading provider of technology-enabled solutions that help dealers, distributors and manufacturers in selected vertical markets increase revenue and reduce costs, today reported results for its second quarter ended January 31, 2011.
The Company posted a significant increase in operating cash flows, and its revenues, operating income, and net income remained positive, despite the loss from certain non-recurring revenues this fiscal year.
Operations Review
"In the second quarter we continued to successfully execute our strategies of deepening relationships with existing customers to foster organic growth, enhancing our core products and services, and driving innovation and efficiency throughout the entire organization," said Roy W. Olivier, President and Chief Executive Officer of ARI. "We believe the continued successful execution of our strategy is reflected in the significant year over year increase in operating cash flow, which we used to continue our investment in product development. We went to market with a significantly upgraded website product during the quarter and are creating new releases and upgrades to both our lead management and catalog products. Additionally, we continually look for opportunities to refine our organization and processes to drive innovation and efficiency. In the second quarter we continued to execute our plan to consolidate our data centers into a Tier III hosted facility in Madison, WI. As we continue to execute on our strategies, we anticipate continued improvements in our performance for the remainder of the fiscal year."

Darin R. Janecek, Chief Financial Officer of ARI, commented "entering into fiscal 2011, we anticipated a decline in our revenues and operating results due to the loss of $600,000 of non-cash, non-recurring revenues recognized in the first half of fiscal 2010 associated with the amortization of our deferred revenue liability established at the time of the Channel Blade acquisition. Despite the absence of these non-cash revenues, we still posted strong operating results, which is a direct reflection of our fiscal 2011 strategy. We are seeing declines in our customer churn rates, continuing to invest in product development, and uncovering additional areas for efficiencies within the organization. We are also seeing an increase in the level of monthly recurring revenue. As a substantial majority of our revenues are subscription-based, increasing MRR is one of, if not the most important financial driver of our business.”
Mr. Olivier added, "I am excited with the results we are seeing from the execution of our strategies. We anticipate continued improvements in our financial results in the latter half of the year."
