Cover-All Technologies Inc. Announces 38.5% Revenue Growth, $0.05 Earnings per Share, for First Quarter 2011

Net Income Increases 67.3% to $1.2 Million vs. $720,000 for Q1 2010; 17th Consecutive Profitable Quarter

FAIRFIELD, NEW JERSEY (May 12, 2011) – Cover-All Technologies Inc. (OTCQB: COVR.PK), a Delaware corporation (“Cover-All” or the “Company”), today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.

Operational Highlights:

•  
  For the quarter ended March 31, 2011 revenue was $5.2 million compared to $3.8 million for the comparable period in 2010, an increase of 38.5%. The $5.2 million in revenue was the second-highest quarterly level in Cover-All’s history.

•  
  Support Services for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 was $2.1 million, up 8.2% compared to $2.0 million for the same period in 2010. The Company combined two of its revenue categories, “Maintenance” and “Application Service Provider (“ASP”) services,” on the statements of operations for the first quarter of 2011 and 2010 and will be reporting these revenue categories as “Support Services” going forward.

•  
  Operating income for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 was $1.2 million compared to $792,000 in the comparable period in 2010.

•  
  The Company’s balance sheet remains strong with stockholders’ equity at a record $16.6 million as of March 31, 2011. The Company completed the first quarter of 2011 with $4.4 million in cash, $5.5 million in working capital and no long-term debt.

•  
  Announced the general availability of the new ISO®-based NexGen Commercial Automobile product for 50 US jurisdictions.

•  
  Expanded the sales and marketing team, consistent with strategic growth plans; Cover-All added a Director of Marketing, a Senior Account Executive, and a Director of New Markets, with over 30 years of combined industry experience.

John Roblin, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “Our focus in 2011 is expansion and profitable growth.  These first quarter results represent a very strong start to what we believe will be a great year.

“Quarterly revenues grew 38.5% from the year-ago period and operating income increased 56.2%, demonstrating that we are successfully leveraging our technology and human capital to create products that are creating excitement in the marketplace.  Led by the release of the NexGen Commercial Automobile product in the first quarter and the impending release of our NexGen Commercial Package and NexGen Business Intelligence products in the second quarter, we are positioned to meet our aggressive objectives.

“We have nearly completed transitioning the business model of our Business Intelligence acquisition in 2010 from a professional services-only sales model to focus more on recurring revenue. As we near the completion of our new Business Intelligence product, our focus has shifted to our more traditional licensing, professional services and support model.  Our new Business Intelligence product will be fully integrated into our My Insurance Center Business Acquisition platform and will also be sold as a stand-alone product.  This product and the NexGen products are already being actively marketed and sold.”



Financial Results for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2011

Total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 were $5.2 million compared to $3.8 million for the same period in 2010, an increase of 38.5%. License revenue was up 86.6% to $2.0 million, compared to $1.1 million for the same period in 2010. Support Services (formerly Maintenance and ASP revenue, which together represent contracted continuing revenue), was $2.1 million for the year ended March 31, 2011, up 8.2% from $2.0 million in the same period in 2010. Professional Services revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 was $1.1 million, up 49.9% compared to $749,000 for the same period in 2010.

Total expenses (cost of revenue and operating expenses) for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 were $4.0 million, up 33.7% compared to $3.0 million in the comparable period of 2010. Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 was $1.2 million, or $0.05 per basic and diluted share (based on 25.1 million basic and 26.2 million diluted weighted average shares, respectively), compared to $720,000, or $0.03 per share (based on 24.7 million basic and 25.4 million diluted weighted average shares, respectively), in the same period of 2010. The first quarter of last year included $285,000, or approximately $0.01 per share, in expenses related to the Business Intelligence asset acquisition.

Mr. Roblin continued, “By the end of the first quarter of 2011, we rolled out the ISO®-based NexGen Commercial Automobile product for 50 US jurisdictions, which creates a significant competitive advantage. This technology offers the entire ISO®-based Commercial Auto product – with all coverages, vehicle types, forms, rating algorithms and statistical codes to various distribution channels such as retail agents, Brokers, Program Administrators and others –  without the need for separate portal products. In addition to what we believe is unrivaled flexibility, the product is both robust and efficient for the carriers’ business operations. We also have our new NexGen Commercial Package (Property, General Liability, Crime & Inland Marine) product for 20 states release already delivered and we expect that all 50 states will be delivered by the end of July.  We demonstrated all our new NexGen products as well as our new Business Intelligence solution to rave reviews at our recent Customer Conference.  The availability of these new products was also a driving factor in the recent significant expansion of our sales and marketing team. These key individuals represent a wealth of industry contacts, domain knowledge, and demonstrated success selling solutions in the complex world of property and casualty insurance.”

Mr. Roblin concluded, “We already have signed contracts for all three of our new products with some of our customers.  We are also in various stages of discussion with additional new and current customers for these products and our pipeline of interest is very strong. Based on early feedback from existing customers, prospects and industry consultants, we believe that our NexGen products and our new Business Intelligence product, combined with our My Insurance Center Business Acquisition platform, are ahead of the curve relative to competitive solutions. We look forward to leveraging this front-leading position in the marketplace and demonstrating our platform capabilities aggressively to take advantage of what we see as significant growth in technology investments in 2011 and 2012.”
