Speed Commerce Announces Plan to Divest Retail Distribution Business

-- Advances Corporate Focus on High-Growth E-Commerce Services --

DALLAS, TX – March 31, 2014 – Speed Commerce, Inc. (NASDAQ: SPDC), a vertically integrated, multi-channel platform of e-commerce services and distribution solutions, today announced that it has commenced the process of divesting its legacy distribution business segment, which is engaged in the retail distribution of computer software and consumer electronics and accessories. This initiative will accelerate the company’s previously stated intent to allocate corporate resources toward its high-growth, higher-margin e-commerce services segment.

In the first nine months of fiscal 2014, net sales in the legacy retail distribution business declined 7% from the same period in 2013, while revenues generated by e-commerce services grew more than 150%.

“This planned divestiture is consistent with our goal of leveraging the company’s competitive advantages and superior customer solutions in the fast-growing e-commerce services sector,” said Richard Willis, president and CEO of Speed Commerce. “It further allows us to substantially improve our margin structure, reduce overhead associated with the retail distribution business and align the entire organization around a common vision and purpose.”

The company intends to use the proceeds from the divestiture to pay down a portion of its line of credit, as well as support the continued growth of its e-commerce business. Speed Commerce expects to close on a potential transaction during the first half of its fiscal year 2015, and is committed to working with new ownership to ensure a smooth transition of the business.

The distribution business segment will be reclassified as discontinued operations in the company’s fiscal fourth quarter 2014 financial results, which will be issued in May.

Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC has been engaged as investment banking counsel to manage the divestiture and sales process.
