Positive adjusted EBITDA of $0.8 Million

Quarterly operating expenses down 21% from prior year quarter

Two 75DI units installed in Q2

GREENWICH, CT -- August 8, 2012 -- Presstek, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRST), a leading supplier of digital offset printing solutions to the printing and communications industries, today reported financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012. The Company reported total revenue of $29.7 million compared to $31.4 million in the second quarter of 2011.
 
 
The Company generated positive adjusted EBITDA of $0.8 million for the quarter, an increase of $0.4 million from the prior year.  The Company had an operating loss of $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2012 versus an operating loss of $1.2 million in the 2011 second quarter, an improvement of $0.9 million. Cost reduction actions undertaken in the latter half of 2011 contributed significantly to this improvement. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company incurred a net loss of $0.8 million, or $0.02 per share, compared to a net loss of $1.7 million, or $0.05 per share, in the second quarter of 2011. (See "Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures")
 
 

“While we continue to experience the effects of the uncertain economic climate, especially in Europe, we achieved continued improvement in EBITDA and a narrowing of our operating loss.  We are encouraged by the positive impact our cost management initiatives have had on our results thus far, and on our prospects for continued improvements going forward”, said Stanley Freimuth, Presstek’s Chairman, President and CEO

Second Quarter 2012 Financial Results
Total revenue in the second quarter was $29.7 million, a decrease of $1.7 million from the second quarter of 2011.
 
 
  
Equipment revenue increased $0.2 million, to $6.4 million, compared with the same prior year period due primarily to an increase in the number of DI units sold, including the sale of two 75DI units.

  
Consumables revenue totaled $17.6 million compared with $19.3 million for the same prior year period resulting primarily from unfavorable economic conditions in Europe as well as the continued gradual erosion of some of our legacy plate product lines.

  
Service revenue decreased $0.2 million, to $5.7 million, compared to the prior year quarter due to lower contract revenues resulting from a decrease in active legacy equipment accounts.

Gross margin percent for the second quarter of 2012 was 28.7% compared to 31.7% in the second quarter of 2011. Lower margins were primarily the result of unfavorable consumables product mix and an increase in our per unit plate costs resulting from lower overall factory volume production.
 
 
Second quarter operating expenses, including the costs of the drupa trade show, declined $2.3 million, or 21%, to $8.8 million compared with the prior year period due primarily to lower expenses resulting from the cost reduction actions taken in the second half of 2011.

“The cost reduction actions that we undertook during the second half of 2011 have resulted in three consecutive quarters of improving operating results and adjusted EBITDA, and we continue to forecast positive adjusted EBITDA for the full year,” said Arnon Dror, Presstek’s Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer.  “In addition, debt net of cash, which improved from $8.8 million to $7.9 million on a sequential quarter basis, closed at its lowest level since the fourth quarter of 2010 resulting from a continued emphasis on managing working capital.” (See "Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures")


Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the Company provides non-GAAP financial measures, including operating expenses excluding special charges; adjusted EBITDA; debt net of cash; and other GAAP measures adjusted for certain charges, which the Company believes are useful to help investors better understand its past financial performance and prospects for the future.  A full reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures is provided in the supplemental financial information provided with this press release.

a.   Operating expenses excluding special charges, Adjusted EBITDA [earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and restructuring and other non-recurring charges (credits)], and Debt net of cash are not measures of performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and should not be considered alternatives for, or in isolation from, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.  Presstek's management believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Operating expenses excluding special charges provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Presstek's current financial performance and prospects for the future.  Presstek's management believes that Debt net of cash provides meaningful information on Presstek's debt relative to its cash position.
 
Presstek believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP measures in assessing the performance of Presstek's ongoing operations and liquidity, and when planning and forecasting future periods.  These non-GAAP measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to Presstek's historical operating results and liquidity.  Our presentations of these measures, however, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.  Reconciliations of these measures to GAAP are included in the tables above.
