ROSH PINA, ISRAEL -- (Marketwired) -- 05/12/15 -- On Track Innovations Ltd. (oti) (NASDAQ: OTIV), a global provider of near field communication (NFC) and cashless payment solutions, reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015.
Q1 2015 Operational Highlights
- Received favorable ruling from the U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, that certain mobile phones sold by T-Mobile USA, Inc. enabled with NFC technology infringe oti's U.S. Patent No. 6,045,043.
- Deployed the oti WAVE NFC payment system to Taiwan Mobile Payment Co., a consortium of regional banks in Taiwan.
- Introduced TRIO Countertop, a new version of its popular TRIO reader designed to address the fast growing market for EMV-compliant cashless payment readers.
- Awarded a global tender for EasyFuel Plus from an emerging multinational oil company, which will provide NFC-based petroleum payment and management capabilities to the oil company's retail operations that currently spans three major global regions.
- Secured a five-year contract extension from the Local Government Economic Services of the Local Authority Ltd. for oti's EasyPark parking management system.
Q1 2015 Financial Details Total revenues decreased 4% to $5.0 million from $5.2 million in the same year-ago period.
Gross profit was $2.5 million (50% of revenue) compared to $2.6 million (50% of revenue) in the same year-ago period, with the decrease primarily due to lower revenues.
Operating expenses decreased 19% to $4.3 million from $5.4 million in the same year-ago period, primarily attributable to lower general and administrative expenses as well as patent-related expenses.
Net loss from continuing operations totaled $2.1 million or $(0.05) per share, an improvement from a net loss from continuing operations of $3.0 million or $(0.09) per share in the same year-ago period.
Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations totaled $1.1 million, an improvement compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations of $1.7 million in the same year-ago period (see discussion about the presentation of adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, a non-GAAP financial measure, below).
At quarter-end, cash and cash equivalents, and short-term investments totaled $15.8 million.
Management Commentary "The first quarter was in line with our expectations, with meaningful progress across all of our key corporate initiatives, including generating greater operating efficiencies through productivity gains," commented oti CEO, Ofer Tziperman. "The significant reduction in net cash consumed from operations as well as the decrease in our total operating expenses by 14% sequentially and 19% year-over-year demonstrates our success with these efforts.
"Externally, we have continued to expand our key global partnerships and distribution channels, and this has attracted strong interest from leading industry players, including major vending machine manufacturers and operators, as well as additional global channel partners.
"Our R&D team is working diligently to meet the strict timelines for project development and integration with various customers and strategic partners, and we expect to convert these engagements into meaningful sales over the coming quarters.
"We are also working to certify new solutions with the major card associations. oti has a long history of innovation and industry firsts, and we expect these new solutions to further our technology leadership in the NFC reader market.
"We have also been moving forward with protecting our unique IP that represents this leadership position in the NFC market, and this was highlighted during the quarter with the favorable ruling from the U.S. District Court against T-Mobile USA."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information This press release contains certain non-GAAP measures, namely, adjusted EBITDA from continuing operation, or adjusted earnings from continuing operation before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations represents earnings before interest or financing expenses, income tax, depreciation and amortization, and further eliminates the effect of share-based compensation expense, patent litigation and maintenance expenses and other non-recurring expenses. OTI believes that adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations should be considered in evaluating the company's operations since it provides a clearer indication of OTI's operating results. This measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with US GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for the US GAAP results. The non-GAAP measures included in this press release have been reconciled to the US GAAP results in the tables below.
