“We achieved solid top- and bottom-line growth over the first quarter of 2010, and performed well during what is typically a seasonally slow period due to the Lunar New Year holiday. We are particularly excited by the performance of our MPS division, in which we grew sales more than 20-fold over the first quarter of 2010 as our solution continued to gain traction in the market,” said Mr. Qiang Li, Trunkbow's Chief Executive Officer. “In addition to our financial and operational accomplishments, we continued executing on key strategic initiatives, including the expansion of our product pipeline through the development of new technologies and applications for mobile commerce, which we plan to roll-out during the rest of year. We also continued broadening of our end user subscriber base and our sales channels through new strategic partnerships, including our recently announced agreement with Icafe to roll out our MPS solution to its 50 million subscribers in 90,000 Internet cafes nationwide.
“During the first quarter of 2011, we introduced our MPS platform in one additional Chinese province and MVAS services in two Chinese provinces through our partnership with China Unicom, and we remain on pace to launch our MPS platform in 10 new provinces with China Unicom by the end of the year. We expect Mobile e-commerce to grow tremendously over the next several years, and we are proud to be at the forefront of this movement in China. We look forward to leading the growth of China’s mobile payment industry as we build our product portfolio, increase our geographic footprint and gain market share, while increasing value for our shareholders.”
First quarter 2011 Results
Net revenue in the first quarter of 2011 was $5.0 million, an increase of 27.6% year-over-year, compared with net revenue of $3.9 million in the same period of 2010. In the first quarter of 2011, revenue from the Company’s MPS offering increased to $1.4 million, from $61,000 in the first quarter of 2010, primarily driven by an increase in the range of products and services offered, as well as expansion into new geographic regions through partnerships with China’s leading mobile network operators. Revenue from MVAS decreased 7.5% to $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2011, compared with $4.0 million in the first quarter of 2010. The decrease in MVAS revenue was primarily related to a temporary slow-down in customer demand for MVAS services. For the first three months of 2011, MPS and MVAS accounted for 27.0% and 73.0% of gross revenues, respectively. This compares with 1.5% and 98.5% of gross revenue for MPS and MVAS in the first quarter of 2010, respectively. The shift in revenue mix was primarily related to growth in the Company’s MPS revenue as the technology continued to gain acceptance among carriers and end users.
Cost of revenue in the first quarter of 2011 was $0.6 million, compared with $0.2 million in the same period of 2010. The increase in cost of revenue was primarily driven by increased sales, greater scale and the increased hardware components.
Gross profit in the first quarter of 2010 was $4.4 million, an increase of 19.0% year-over-year. As a percentage of net revenue, gross margin was 88.9% in the first quarter of 2011, down from 95.4% in the year-ago quarter. The decrease in gross margin was due to higher hardware components related to MVAS revenue.
Operating expenses in the first quarter of 2011 were $2.0 million, an increase of 109.0% year-over-year, driven primarily by the increase in selling expenses to support the roll-out of MPS, an increase in general and administrative expenses related to the Company’s expansion and the costs associated with being a public company, as well as an increase in R&D expenses to position the Company for future growth.
Operating income in the first quarter of 2011 was $2.4 million, a decrease of 11.8%, compared with $2.8 million in the same period last year. The decrease in operating profit for the quarter was primarily related to the decrease in gross margin related to the shift in revenue mix, as well as the increase in operating expenses associated with the growth of Trunkbow’s business.
For the first quarter in 2011, the Company recorded $1.3 million in other income related to a VAT rebate from the tax bureau, in accordance with government policies associated with organizations classified as “Software enterprises.”
Net income attributable to Trunkbow was $3.4 million in the first quarter of 2011, an increase of 26.9% from the comparable period in 2010. Net margin was 67.3% in the first quarter of 2011, compared with 67.7% in the first quarter of 2010. Earnings per basic and diluted share in the first quarter in 2011 were $0.09, based on 36.0 million weighted average shares outstanding, compared with $0.10 per share, based on 26.6 million weighted average shares outstanding in the first fiscal quarter of 2010.
Balance Sheet
As of March 31, 2011, the Company had $23.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared with $10.3 million as of December 31, 2010. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to $18.1 million in net proceeds from the Company’s initial public offering completed on February 8, 2011. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had working capital of $64.5 million, short-term loans of $1.8 million and total shareholders’ equity of $65.5 million. Accounts receivable on March 31, 2011 totaled approximately $27.1 million. As of May 10, 2011, the Company had collected approximately $6.0 million of these outstanding receivables and $2.2 million of loans to third parties.
Business Outlook
Trunkbow expects a robust growth in the second quarter of 2011 as a result of the continued expansion of the MPS market and the strategic execution of its plan to broaden its market share by introducing its services in new provinces and increases its presence among China’s leading mobile carriers. Based on these growth initiatives, the Company expects second quarter 2011 revenue of $9.5 million and net income of $4.3 million, representing year-over-year growth of 138% and 95%, respectively.
Mr. Li concluded, “Looking ahead, we expect to achieve strong growth on a sequential quarter basis during the remainder of 2011. We are uniquely positioned in the MPS space as the only provider of an end-to-end solution incorporating hardware, software and services, and believe that this gives us a significant competitive advantage with both carriers and merchants, while offering a compelling solution for consumers. With an intuitive, user-friendly platform, partnerships with mobile and payment industry leaders and a strong balance sheet bolstered by the proceeds of our first quarter IPO, we are confident in our ability to reach the next level of success.”
