Kofax plc (LSE:KFX), the leading provider of document driven business
process automation solutions, releases an Interim Management Statement
for the first quarter of its 2010 financial year, which includes the
period from 1 July to 30 September 2009 and the results of operations of
170 Systems, Inc. since Kofax's acquisition of that company in early
September 2009.
Kofax's 2010 financial year started positively with total revenues in
line with and adjusted operating profit ahead of our expectations.
Software business revenues were higher than expected due to strong
service revenues and offset lower than expected product distribution
revenues in the hardware business. Sales execution and achievement
levels across all segments of the company's software business were
generally as expected and the Company continued to make good progress in
executing its strategic initiatives.
Other than the decrease in cash resulting from Kofax's acquisition of
170 Systems, there have been no significant changes in the Company's
financial position since 30 June 2009 and its balance sheet remains
strong.
Reynolds C. Bish, Chief Executive Officer, commented: "I'm pleased to
report that we made good progress and performed better than expected in
our software business this past quarter. Market conditions have
stabilized and show early signs of improving to a limited extent but
continue to be challenging and difficult to predict. As a result and
excluding the effect of the 170 Systems acquisition, which should
contribute approximately $22m of revenues after acquisition accounting,
we continue to expect low to mid single digit organic revenue growth in
our software business this financial year."
Finally, on 8 September 2009 the Company announced its intention to
report Kofax's future financial results in US dollars. To assist readers
in the transition from Pounds Sterling to US dollar reporting, the
Company has attached and is today posting US dollar based financial
statements for the years ended 30 June 2009 and 2008 on the Investor
relations page of its website at www.kofax.com/ir.
