StarTek, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2011 Results

Fourth Quarter Revenue of $51 Million; Annual Revenue of $219 Million

DENVER, CO — February 23, 2012 - StarTek, Inc. (NYSE:SRT) today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2011.  The Company reported fourth quarter 2011 revenue of $51.1 million and annual revenue of $219.5 million.  Net loss was $0.49 per share in the fourth quarter of 2011 and $1.75 per share for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Fourth Quarter 2011 Financial Results

Fourth quarter 2011 revenue decreased 1.1% compared to the third quarter of 2011. Revenue was down slightly from third quarter due to lower volumes in North America and the closure of the Company’s Kingston, Ontario facility in September 2011.  The North American decline was partially offset by Offshore revenue growth, which increased by $3.4 million, or 20.5%, compared to the third quarter of 2011 as the Company continued to ramp new business in these locations.

Gross margin grew to 10.8% in the fourth quarter of 2011 from 7.3% in the third quarter of 2011.  The improvement was due to continued growth in Offshore gross margin, which improved from 10.6% in the third quarter to 16.9% in the fourth quarter driven by better utilization as the Company added nearly 900 full-time equivalent agents in this segment compared to the third quarter of 2011.  In the fourth quarter of 2011, Offshore gross profit represented 61% of the Company’s total gross profit compared to 47% in the third quarter and 11% in the fourth quarter of 2010.

SG&A expense for the quarter totaled $11.0 million, compared to $10.0 million in the third quarter of 2011.  The increase was due mostly to $0.7 million of severance costs in the fourth quarter primarily for the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer.

The Company reported a fourth quarter 2011 operating loss before impairment and restructuring charges of $5.4 million and adjusted EBITDA of negative $1.2 million, compared to a third quarter 2011 operating loss before impairment and restructuring of $6.5 million and adjusted EBITDA of negative $2.3 million.  The Company had a net loss of $7.5 million, or $0.49 per share, during the fourth quarter of 2011.  The fourth quarter 2011 net loss compares to a net loss of $6.8 million, or $0.45 per share, in the third quarter of 2011.

2011 Financial Results

In 2011, revenue decreased 17.3% from $265 million in 2010 to $219 million.  Gross margin grew slightly to 10.5% in 2011, compared to 10.4% in 2010.  SG&A expense totaled $44.1 million in 2011, compared to $43.3 million in 2010.  Excluding severance expense and legal fees related to the settlement of an employee labor relations lawsuit, SG&A expense would have been $39.9 million in 2011, compared to $42.1 million in 2010.  Operating loss before impairment and restructuring charges was $21.1 million in 2011 and adjusted EBITDA was negative $3.8 million, compared to 2010 operating loss before impairment and restructuring of $15.6 million and 2010 adjusted EBITDA of $3.9 million.  Net loss for the full year 2011 was $1.75 per share compared to a net loss of $1.30 per share in 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company ended 2011 with approximately $9.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and no debt, compared to $11.5 million and no debt at September 30, 2011.  During the quarter, the Company implemented enhanced cash management practices to limit discretionary spending and monitor its capital expenditures, which management believes will help provide a foundation to return to positive adjusted EBITDA and working capital in 2012.  The Company had $1.5 million and $9.0 million in capital expenditures during the quarter and year ending December 31, 2011, respectively.

2011 Operational Highlights

During the year, the Company:

·                  Continued its sales momentum, signing eight new agreements with an expected annual contract value of nearly $29 million;
