GTSI Reports Third Quarter Results
HERNDON, Va. --(Business Wire)--
GTSI (R) Corp. (NASDAQ:GTSI), an enterprise IT infrastructure solutions and services provider to the government, released financial and operational results for the third quarter of 2009.
"The conditions in the government market were as hyper competitive as I have seen in all my years," said Jim Leto, GTSI's Chief Executive Officer. "With influences from multiple sources, we found ourselves in the final weeks of the quarter losing large transactions to companies willing to accept deals at very low gross margins. While this quarter is not what we anticipated, we have maintained a lower cost structure and delivered profitability, which has been difficult in these economic times." As a result, the Company no longer projects for 2009 an increase over 2008 in sales.
Third Quarter Highlights
Awarded Perimeter Security and Communications contract for the Port of Oakland
Won Army Authentication Identification Technology (AIT) IV contract with the Department of the Army
Sharp (News - Alert) declines in quarter-ended inventory to lowest levels in years
Strong growth in new financial services business
Voluntary turnover 6%
Professional Services
During the quarter, GTSI adjusted its strategy for professional services. By aligning all of the customer focused and service and sale revenue activities under Scott Friedlander, GTSI's President and Chief Operating Officer, the Company expects to promote greater collaboration throughout the organization and focus on a core set of featured solutions. In addition to the reporting change, the professional services team has been challenged to improve utilization.
"We are seeking to accelerate growth in our services business by moving towards enhanced engineering services around next generation computing platforms. This phase of our services strategic plan is expected to enable us to maintain our existing service offerings, at lower costs, and expand into higher margin opportunities. To bolster this initiative and reshape our services model, we have hired Sandy Gillespie, a top-flight executive, tenured government service focused professional who brings tremendous skills to GTSI from Raytheon and Lockheed Martin (News - Alert)" said Leto.
Financial Update
For the third quarter of 2009, GTSI reported sales of $209.7 million and earnings before taxes of $7.1 million as compared to sales of $257.1 million and earnings before taxes of $8.2 million. In order to provide a valid comparison of net income and earnings per share it is important to note that in 2009 GTSI reverted to full taxpayer status. An income tax expense of $3.2 million was recorded in the current quarter as compared to no income tax expense in 2008. As a result, the GTSI recorded net income for the quarter of $3.8 million ($0.39 per diluted share) as compared net income of $8.2 million ($0.83 per diluted share) reported in the third quarter of 2008. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter were $23.8 million, down sharply from the $27.5 million for the same period in 2008.
Gross margin dollars in the third quarter of 2009 were $28.9 million with gross margin percentage of 14% in the period, compared to $34.8 million with a gross margin percentage of 14% in the third quarter of 2008.
"We continue to gain efficiencies in our business model allowing us to realize greater savings in our operating expenses," said Peter Whitfield, Chief Financial Officer for GTSI. "As a result of entering into a $135 million credit and floor planning facility with Castle Pines Credit earlier this year, combined with the fact that we have not been in the line for the past seven months, we have seen a dramatic shift in cash and borrowings by nearly $38 million since the end of 2008."
