IRVINE, Calif., June 25, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- CalAmp (Nasdaq: CAMP), a global technology solutions pioneer transforming the mobile connected economy, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended May 31, 2020. 

"Despite significant impact from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, our first quarter results were solid as a result of the highly coordinated effort from our team, combined with close interactions with our customers in support of their product supply requirements," said Jeff Gardner, interim president and chief executive officer. "We also made significant progress on the plan I discussed in early May, as evidenced by continued improvements across our supply chain as well as the recent appointment of a new senior vice president of global supply chain and operations."

"Additionally, in support of our initiative to focus resources on our most profitable lines of business, we made the strategic decision to transition out of the automotive vehicle financing business, which we believe will enhance the quality of our overall SaaS revenue while improving gross margins and profitability. We are also refocusing our engineering resources on the most promising product opportunities and end markets, as demonstrated by the launch of our critical iOn Tag visibility services as well as our iOn Vision application to be released this fall."

First Quarter Fiscal Year 2021 Financial Overview

  • Consolidated revenue was $80.2 million, down 10% year-over-year due to a decline in Telematics Systems revenue largely attributable to the COVID-19 impact on LoJack U.S. SVR (Stolen Vehicle Recovery) product sales.
  • Software & Subscription Services revenue was $28.0 million, up 10% year-over-year, and 35% of consolidated revenue.
  • LoJack U.S. SVR products revenue was $6.6 million and is now being presented as a separate reportable segment.
  • Gross margin was 38.7%, reflecting the decline in Telematics Systems revenue and the write-off of inventories related to the transition out of the automotive vehicle financing business.
  • GAAP net loss was $14.4 million, or a loss of $0.42 per share, and reflecting a noncash impairment loss of $4.3 million on goodwill and other intangible assets related to the LoJack U.S. SVR business.
  • Adjusted basis non-GAAP net income was $0.6 million, or $0.02 per diluted share.
  • Operating cash flow was $5.9 million, with adjusted EBITDA of $6.5 million and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 8.1%.
  • Redeemed the remaining $27.6 million in aggregate principal amount of the 1.625% Convertible Senior Notes plus accrued interest that was due on May 15, 2020.
  • Ended the quarter with $104 million in cash and cash equivalents and approximately $262.6 million in outstanding debt, including $230 million of the 2.0% Convertible Senior Notes due in August 2025.

Business and Recent Highlights

  • Appointed senior vice president of global supply chain and operations, Nathan Lowstuter, who brings extensive large enterprise-level supply chain, logistics and Six Sigma Black Belt experience.
  • Introduced new Bus Guardian service, a suite of digital solutions designed to help schools more safely and confidently return students to the classroom.
  • LoJack Mexico announced partnership with Overhaul Group, Inc. to offer supply chain integrity services to fleet operators across Mexico.
  • Introduced new Here Comes The Bus application technology to help schools manage unconventional bus routes prompted by COVID-19.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

"GAAP" refers to financial information presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This announcement includes non-GAAP financial measures, as defined in Regulation G promulgated by the SEC. We believe that our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures are provided in addition to, and not as a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

In this announcement, we report the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted basis net income, Adjusted basis net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings Before Investment Income, Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization, stock-based compensation, acquisition and integration expenses, non-cash costs and expenses arising from purchase accounting adjustments, litigation provisions, gain from legal settlement, impairment loss and certain other adjustments as detailed in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliation), and Adjusted EBITDA margin. Adjusted basis net income excludes the impact of intangible assets amortization expense, stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, acquisition and integration expenses, non-cash costs and expenses arising from purchase accounting adjustments, litigation provisions, gain on legal settlement, income tax provision adjustments, impairment loss and certain other adjustments as shown in the non-GAAP reconciliation provided in the table at the end of this announcement.  We use these non-GAAP financial measures to provide investors with additional information about our financial performance and future prospects of our core business activities. Internally, these non-GAAP measures are significant measures used by management for purposes of evaluating our core operating performance, establishing internal budgets, calculating return on investment for development programs and growth initiatives, comparing performance with internal forecasts and targeted business models, strategic planning, evaluating and valuing potential acquisition candidates and how their operations compare to our operations, and benchmarking performance externally against our competitors. We believe this non-GAAP financial information provides additional insight into our ongoing performance and have therefore chosen to provide this information to investors to help them evaluate our results of ongoing operations and enable additional period-to-period comparisons. The presentation of these and other similar items in our non-GAAP financial results should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent, or unusual.
