Rimage Reports Third Quarter 2011 Financial Results

 

Minneapolis, MN – October 27, 2011 – Rimage Corporation (Nasdaq: RIMG) today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011. These results do not include financial results for Qumu, Inc. which Rimage acquired on October 10, 2011.

 

  Results for disc publishing operations achieve management guidance provided in the second quarter earnings release on July 28th
  Revenues in the third quarter of 2011 totaled $20.3 million compared with $23.4 million in the third quarter of 2010.  Retail revenues were down $3.2 million from last year primarily because last year’s revenues included the shipment of a large hardware order under a now completed $10.6 million agreement for a major national retailer’s disc publishing systems. Excluding this shipment, revenues increased 1%.
  Gross margin increased to 51% from 50% reflecting reduced service support costs and a more favorable sales mix.
  Operating expenses totaled $8.3 million compared with $8.2 million in the third quarter of 2010.  Included in the 2011 operating expenses was approximately $419,000 of transaction expenses related to the Company’s recently announced acquisition of Qumu.  Excluding the transaction expenses, operating expenses were 4% below the prior year.
  Overall, third quarter net income totaled $1.5 million, or $0.16 per share, compared to $2.3 million, or $0.24 per share, in last year’s third quarter.
  Excluding transaction expenses from the acquisition of Qumu, third quarter 2011 earnings per share were $0.19 compared with $0.24 in the third quarter of 2010.  These results were in line with the financial guidance provided on July 28 in the second quarter 2011 earnings release.
  The Company generated $2 million in cash from operations in the quarter and ended the third quarter with $115 million in cash and marketable securities.  Subsequent to the end of the quarter, Rimage paid $39 million in cash for the acquisition of Qumu.  The remaining $13 million of the $52 million transaction price was paid through the issuance of Rimage stock.

 

Sherman L. Black, president and CEO, said, “The third quarter was a very busy and productive period for Rimage, as we completed the evaluation and planning for the recently announced acquisition of Qumu. Our financial results for the quarter came in as we anticipated. Excluding the decline in retail revenues, third quarter revenues increased 1% from the prior year, reflecting growth in North America and Asia Pacific. In addition, we shipped a $1.7 million surveillance solution order for equipment and service to a major law enforcement agency during this year’s third quarter. Recurring revenues grew 3% as strong growth in service contracts was partially offset by a decline in consumable supplies. Our gross margin increased to 51% due to lower service costs and a more favorable mix of products. Operating expenses were well contained. Excluding the transaction costs related to the Qumu acquisition, operating expenses were 4% below the prior year. We generated $2 million in cash from operations during the quarter, paid out $2 million for two dividend payments and paid $4 million to repurchase shares. Our cash balance at the end of September totaled $115 million.”

 

 
 

 

Mr. Black added, “With the Qumu acquisition, Rimage is well-positioned as a leader in the growing market for enterprise video communications and social applications. We are actively working to complete the integration and to realize the customer and technology synergies between Qumu’s offerings, our disc publishing business and our virtual publishing initiative. Response from Rimage and Qumu customers, distributors, and partners so far has been very positive and we are excited about the growth opportunities offered by this combination.”

 

On October 7, 2011, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved a 70% increase in the quarterly cash dividend to $0.17 per share, payable on December 15, 2011 to shareholders of record on November 30, 2011. Based on the current stock price, this dividend represents a 6% yield.

 

In addition, in July the Company announced a 500,000 share increase in its share repurchase authorization. In the third quarter 2011, 292,000 shares were repurchased, leaving 513,000 shares remaining on this and prior authorizations.

 

Financial Guidance

 

For the fourth quarter 2011, the Company expects revenues of $24 to $26 million and earnings per share are expected to be between -$0.02 and $0.01, including the contribution from Qumu and transaction related expenses.

 

For the full year 2011, revenues are expected to be between $86 and $88 million and earnings per share between $0.42 and $0.45. Excluding the Qumu contribution and transaction expenses, revenues and earnings per share from the Company’s disc publishing business are in line with the Company’s earlier 2011 forecast, reiterated on July 28, 2011, of $80 to $85 million in revenues and earnings per share of $0.55 to $0.65.
