AppliedTheory Corporation Announces Record First Quarter 1999 Revenue
GREAT NECK, N.Y., May 11 /PRNewswire/ -- AppliedTheory Corporation (Nasdaq: ATHY - news), today announced that revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 was a record $6.87 million, an increase of 29% from the same period in the prior year, and an increase of 10% from the fourth quarter ended December 31, 1998.
Net loss attributable to common shareholders for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 was $1.71 million, or $.11 per share, compared with $790,000, or $.07 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. Loss from operations before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) (A) for the quarter ended March 31, 1999, was $880,000 versus $235,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998.
Richard Mandelbaum, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, ''We were pleased that our 1999 first quarter revenue exceeded our expectations. In addition, Internet integration and enterprise portal development accounted for 39% of total net revenue in the 1999 first quarter, which was an improvement from the 33% of total net revenue that these operations contributed in the comparable 1998 period. Both Internet integration and enterprise portal development are higher margin businesses than Internet Connectivity, which accounted for the remaining percentage of revenue in both the 1999 and 1998 quarters. Our increasing focus on Internet Integration and enterprise portal development, combined with higher-than-expected overall revenues, resulted in gross margins and EBITDA that were ahead of our internal projections.'' ............

(A) EBITDA is earnings (loss) from operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. EBITDA is presented because management believes that investors may find it to be a useful tool for measuring a company's ability to service its debt. However, EBITDA does not represent cash flow from operations, as defined by generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA should not be considered as a substitute for net loss or as an indicator of our operating performance, cash flow or liquidity.
(B) Capital expenditures include assets acquired with debt and exclude assets acquired through capital lease financing.
