CallWave Announces Results for Third Quarter of Fiscal 2005
28 April 2005
CallWave, Inc. (Nasdaq:CALL - News), a leading provider of VoIP applications, today reported financial results for the three- and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2005.
For the third quarter of fiscal 2005, CallWave reported total revenue of $11.2 million, an increase of 10% over $10.2 million reported in the third quarter of fiscal 2004. Net income for the third quarter of 2005 decreased 41% to $2.3 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, from $3.9 million, or $0.25 per diluted share reported in the prior year. Net income for the 2005 third quarter includes $0.3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share of tax benefits. Weighted average fully diluted shares outstanding for the quarters ended March 31, 2005, and March 31, 2004, were 21,331,000 and 15,354,000, respectively.
Gross margins for the third quarter were 73%, and operating margins were 14%. CallWave used $0.6 million in cash in its operations and closed the quarter with $54.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. At March 31, 2005, CallWave had 856,000 paid subscribers who represented 958,000 lines.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2005, CallWave reported total revenue of $33.9 million, an increase of 19% over $28.5 million reported in the first nine months of fiscal 2004. Net income for the period increased 5% to $9.5 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, from $9.1 million, or $0.59 per diluted share reported in the same period of the prior year. Net income for the 2005 nine-month period includes $2.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share of tax benefits.
"The third quarter highlighted both the opportunities and challenges in our business," commented David Hofstatter, President and CEO of CallWave. "The performance of our core landline enhancement business showed the continued potential of that market. At the same time, we experienced the headwinds of simultaneously ramping up new indirect partners and rolling out our new mobile VoIP software. Nevertheless, we remain highly optimistic about our investments in these growth areas.
"It's important to note that our strategy to grab market share in the mobile VoIP market is in no way an abandonment of our cash-generating landline business. To the contrary, new mobile features and services add value to the landline customer base and to our landline carrier partners by extending customer life and increasing revenue per user. Our strategy is to continue making investments in technology and distribution partnerships that can be leveraged across both the fixed and mobile connections that consumers use."
