RA'ANANA, Israel, Aug. 11, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Retalix® Ltd. (Nasdaq:RTLX), a leading provider of Software and Services for retailers and distributors, announced today results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010.

Summarized financial highlights for the three months ended June 30, 2010:

  • Total Revenues were $52.0 million, compared to $48.9 million in the second quarter of 2009.
  • Income from Operations (GAAP) was $3.4 million, compared to $3.0 million income from operations (GAAP) in the second quarter of 2009.
  • Adjusted Income from Operations (Non-GAAP)* was $5.3 million compared to $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2009.
  • Financial Expense was $0.8 million due to currency fluctuations and the value of the Company's forward currency transactions compared to a financial income of $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2009 related to currency fluctuations and the value of the forward currency transactions. These amounts impacted the GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Net Income, including per share data, presented below.
  • GAAP Net Income was $1.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, versus a GAAP Net Income of $4.9 million, or $0.24 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2009, including the $3.7 million in financial income referenced above.
  • Adjusted Net Income (Non-GAAP)* was $3.3 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, compared to $6.1 million, or $0.30 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2009, including the $3.7 million in financial income referenced above.
  • Cash Flow from Operating Activities generated $4 million during the second quarter of 2010.
  • Balance Sheet includes approximately $107.5 million in cash and cash equivalents, deposits and marketable securities and negligible debt as of June 30, 2010.

Shuky Sheffer, Chief Executive Officer of Retalix, said, "It was another solid quarter for Retalix that included sequential and year-over-year growth in total revenues and operating income along with continued positive cash flow from operations. We had a good quarter of delivering projects to customers, including our first in Japan. We also won new customer programs including a new customer in Spain. We are continuing to execute on our plan. Our market analysis has confirmed that Retalix is well positioned and our leadership is aligned with the opportunities in the marketplace. We are making progress on developing and enhancing our product offering and services that build on Retalix's strengths and we look forward to continuing to expand upon these efforts."

Hugo Goldman, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, said, "We had solid financial results in the second quarter of 2010, reporting growth in total revenues and income from operations both when compared to the previous quarter and the year ago period. Our second quarter Non-GAAP Net Income was also a slight improvement versus the first quarter despite increased financial expenses due to currency fluctuations and its impact on the value of our non-dollar assets. We were able to achieve a better than 10% operating margin Non-GAAP in the second quarter of 2010 by focusing on efficient operations while we continue to recruit and increase our total headcount in key areas such as customer facing operations, R&D and services. We also maintained positive cash flows, generating $4 million from operations and a solid balance sheet with more than $107.5 million in cash and cash equivalents, deposits and marketable securities and negligible debt."

Outlook for FY 2010

Sheffer added, "Overall we are satisfied by the progress we made in the first two quarters of 2010. We achieved our financial goals for the first half and we continue to receive positive feedback from our customers and see good acceptance and interest in our solutions. While there continues to be caution over the rate of recovery for the global economy and inconsistencies by geography, opportunities exist based on the individual customer's market and the local versus global economy.

"We see initial signs of growth, and while there continues to be uncertainty in the economy, the results of the first half give us confidence in our guidance for 2010. We are refining our guidance and we now expect total revenues for 2010 of between $200 and $210 million and similar or better profitability than 2009."
