Route1 Inc. (TSX VENTURE:ROI), a digital security and identity management
company whose customers include the U.S. Department of Defense, the Department
of Homeland Security, the Department of Energy, and the Government of Canada,
today announced its financial results for the three month period ended March 31,
2013.
Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 were
positively affected by the proceeds of an arbitration award which was received
in January 2012. As a result, in the first quarter of the prior year there was
$1.7 million of revenue and $1.1 million of gross profit included in the
Company's first quarter 2012 financial statements.
Q1 2013 Financial Results Summary
For the three month period ended March 31, 2013, total revenue decreased to $1.1
million from $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2012. The decrease was
primarily a result of:
-- An arbitration award in the first quarter of 2012 - $1.1 million of
devices and appliances revenue, and $0.6 million of services revenue.
-- As disclosed in the Company's November 26, 2012 press release, a net
decrease in paid, active MobiKEY application software subscribers, which
is primarily attributable to Route1's European Government client -
approximately $139,000.
-- A reduction in the base monthly fee received from a prime contractor
that sells Route1's MobiKEY technology to the U.S. Navy - approximately
$90,000.
Services revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2013 does not include the
impact of Route1's November 20, 2012 press release where Route1 announced that
it had received a second purchase order from a component of the United States
Department of Defense. The purchase order was for an additional 2,000 MobiKEY
Fusion devices and 4,000 MobiKEY application software subscriptions covering the
service period April 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014. As a result, during the term of
the service period Route1 will increase services revenue by approximately
$325,000 per three month period.
Gross profit decreased during the quarter to $0.9 million compared to gross
profit of $2.3 million during the same period in the prior year. The decrease in
gross profit is primarily attributable to the arbitration award. As a result,
Route1's first quarter 2013 total comprehensive net loss was $0.1 million
compared to total comprehensive net income of $1.0 million during the same
period in the prior year.
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) during
the three-month period amounted to $9,000 compared to an EBITDA of $1.1 million
in the first quarter of 2012.
As at March 31, 2013, Route1 had no bank debt and a cash balance of $1.8 million.

Services revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2013 does not include the
impact of Route1's November 20, 2012 press release where Route1 announced that
it had received a second purchase order from a component of the United States
Department of Defense. The purchase order was for an additional 2,000 MobiKEY
Fusion devices and 4,000 MobiKEY application software subscriptions covering the
service period April 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014. As a result, during the term of
the service period Route1 will add an additional 2,000 paid, active subscribers.
"We are showing progress in growing our MobiKEY application software revenue
base. Due to contract term dates and the lumpy nature of contract awards, the
second quarter of 2013 will more accurately reflect the Company's run rate
revenue in terms of paid, active subscribers and average revenue per paid,
active subscriber," said Tony P. Busseri, CEO of Route1. "We continue to
aggressively pursue business opportunities that will grow our paid user base and
where possible, improve the quality of our services revenue."
