(x) EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation,
and
Amortization) is a key measure in the security industry and
should
not be interpreted as a GAAP measure.
Joel Matlin, President and CEO, said "We are pleased to report
results for our third quarter in which the company's revenue
increased to $8,528,000, higher by 13% than the comparative quarter
of 2008. Nine month Revenues increased to $25.3 million, a 15%
increase over 2008, and Net Income increased by 76% to $3.1 million.
The AlarmForce subscriber base increased to 98,700 accounts,
reflecting an annual growth of 13%."
"Profitable growth is a key objective for us and the consistent
growth in subscribers and revenues resulted in an earnings per share
increase of 73% for the nine months. The increases in both recurring
revenues and net income in the third quarter represent a continuous
trend in the company's successful subscriber growth. Despite a deep
financial downturn, AlarmForce was able to achieve all-time record
numbers, thanks to our growth model of creating home-grown
subscribers rather than purchasing subscriber accounts. The organic
growth model benefits us through a much lower cost to create new
accounts, higher operating margins, and leverages our scalable
central monitoring and manufacturing capabilities. Reflecting the
significant positive effect of both double-digit growth and
increased efficiencies through economies of scale, Income before
income taxes increased to $4.6 million in the nine-month period,
which represents an annualized increase of 73%."
"For the nine months, net cash flows from operating activities
increased by 11% to $4.6 million.
