Intermap Technologies Corporation (“Intermap” or the “Company”)
today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June
30, 2009. A conference call will be held today, August 5, at 4:30
p.m. Eastern Time to discuss the results.
All amounts in this news release are in United States dollars
unless otherwise noted.
With the completion of NEXTMap Europe during the quarter, for
the first time, uniformly accurate map data is commercially
available for nationwide datasets for 21 countries across Western
Europe. Additionally, the NEXTMap USA dataset is in the final
processing phase and scheduled to be commercially available in its
entirety in early 2010. These are the most uniform, accurate, and
complete 3D maps of Western Europe and the United States in
existence. Intermap management believes that providing the most
reliable and uniformly accurate elevation data available creates
value across a wide array of markets and industries.
“With NEXTMap Europe and much of NEXTMap USA data available, our
customer list continues to grow,” said Brian Bullock, president and
CEO of Intermap Technologies. “We are signing supply agreements for
personal navigation devices, product development agreements for
automotive applications, and rolling out risk management solutions
for the insurance industry - as well as continuing to grow our
enterprise and government sales for a wide array of applications in
the United States and Europe. Intermap’s AccuTerra product was
recently named the ′Best iPhone Beta Application′ for Apple’s new
3.0 operating system, which illustrates that the quality of our
applications are matching the quality of our NEXTMap data.”
FINANCIAL REVIEW
For the second quarter of 2009, Intermap reported total revenue
of $6.2 million, as compared to $6.9 million for the same period in
2008. At quarter-end, there remained $14.3 million in revenue to be
recognized in future periods on continuing contracts.
Contract services revenue in the second quarter increased to
$3.5 million, as compared to $2.5 million for the same period in
2008. The increase was the result of mapping projects in Asia in
the second quarter of 2009 resulting in $3.2 million in revenue
compared to only $1.5 million in Asia for the same period in
2008.
Multi-client data library (“MCDL”) license revenue was $2.7
million, compared to $4.4 million for the same period in 2008. The
decrease resulted primarily from a single sale of NEXTMap USA data
during the second quarter of 2008 totaling $3.4 million to a U.S.
Government agency, without a similar size contract in the second
quarter of 2009. For the second quarter of 2009, approximately 12%
of the MCDL license revenue was associated with the NEXTMap USA
program, 48% was associated with the NEXTMap Europe program, and
40% was associated with the Company’s Asia dataset.
Operations expense in the second quarter totaled $1.6 million,
as compared to $2.0 million for the same period in 2008. The
decrease is primarily the result of a reduction in flight hours on
commercial projects and associated personnel costs compared to the
same period in 2008.
Sales, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense in the
second quarter was $6.5 million, as compared to $6.7 million for
the same period in 2008. SG&A includes costs associated with
administration, database infrastructure, facilities, business
development (including automotive, consumer electronics, and
insurance risk management), sales, and marketing.
Amortization expense of the MCDL database in the second quarter
increased to $2.4 million from $2.3 million for the same period in
2008. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the size of
the underlying NEXTMap datasets.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, for the quarter ended June
30, 2009 was a loss of $2.4 million, as compared to a loss of $2.3
million for the same period in 2008. The term EBITDA consists of
net income (loss) and excludes interest, taxes, depreciation, and
amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes gain or loss on foreign
currency translation, gain or loss related to the disposal of
assets, and stock based compensation expense.
For the second quarter of 2009, Intermap reported a net loss of
$6.9 million, or ($0.14) per share, compared to a net loss of $6.2
million, or ($0.13) per share for the same period in 2008.
Cash expenditures are expected to continue to decrease through
2009 as the airborne data collection portion of NEXTMap USA was
completed in the early part of the year. Cash outflows relating to
NEXTMap are expected to be lower by more than $10 million for all
of 2009 when compared to 2008. Investment in the final processing
of the NEXTMap USA dataset continues, which is expected to be
commercially available in its entirety in early 2010.
Net cash used in investing activities is down significantly, as
predicted, totaling $2.5 million (year-to-date $7.8 million) for
the second quarter of 2009, compared to $9.1 million (year-to-date
$18.2 million) during the same period in 2008. Cash used during the
second quarter of 2009 totaled $3.0 million and was primarily for
investment in the MCDL, compared to $7.7 million for the same
period in 2008. The use of cash during the quarter was offset by
$1.0 million in cash generated from the sale of the Company’s Aero
Commander aircraft in June 2009. With the sale of this aircraft,
the Company now has three IFSAR platforms remaining in
production.
Cash used in operations during the second quarter of 2009
totaled $3.8 million (year-to-date $4.0 million) compared to cash
generated by operations of $5.5 million (year-to-date $2.3 million)
during the same period in 2008. The total cash used in operations
during 2009 was impacted primarily by changes in working
capital.
Net cash generated by financing activities totaled $8.4 million
during the second quarter of 2009 as a result of the completion of
a share issuance for 5,750,000 units (each unit consists of one
Class A common share of the Company and one-half of one common
share purchase warrant) for total gross consideration of $9.5
million (C$11.5 million), offset by $0.8 million of securities
issuance costs. Each whole warrant will be exercisable at a price
of C$3.00 per common share for a period expiring one year after the
closing dates.
The cash position of the Company at June 30, 2009 (cash and cash
equivalents) was $23.8 million compared to $27.3 million at
December 31, 2008. Working capital decreased to $25.7 million as of
June 30, 2009 from $30.0 million as of December 31, 2008.
As of August 5, 2009, there were 52,432,037 common shares
outstanding.

OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS
Apple iPhone and AccuTerra by
Intermap
In June, Intermap introduced its AccuTerra outdoor recreation
application for Apple’s iPhone on Apple’s iTunes App Store,
providing iPhone users with detailed terrain, trails, land usage,
and points of interest to enhance their outdoor recreational
experience in the United States. AccuTerra apps contain on-device
map content for national parks, monuments, and forests, as well as
state parks and many other recreation areas for the contiguous U.S.
and Hawaii.
The iPhone and AccuTerra map content allows hikers and other
outdoor recreational users to view their topographic surroundings
with a high degree of detail, while accurately tracking their
progress. The AccuTerra maps reside on the iPhone so people can use
them even where there is no cellular coverage. Adventures can be
tracked, saved, and shared immediately via email. The applications
are also integrated with Google Earth™ and Google Maps™ to enable
shared user experiences and the ability to build online
communities. In addition, AccuTerra’s unique ′Walking Tour′
function lets the user replay the entire adventure right from their
iPhone.
During the third quarter, Intermap will be launching their new
award-winning version of AccuTerra for Apple’s iPhone 3.0 OS. The
beta version of this new application was named winner of the Apple
Design Award at the World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC09) in
San Francisco, California in the Best iPhone OS 3.0 Beta App
category.
The AccuTerra applications are available from Apple’s iTunes App
Store at www.itunes.com/appstore
More information on AccuTerra for the iPhone can be found at:
mobile.AccuTerra.com.
Consumer Electronics
(Recreational GPS)
In Italy, Intermap signed an agreement with Giove SRL to
supply Intermap’s new line of elevation shaded image (ESI) products
and AccuTerra Europe contour data for Giove’s MyNav portable
navigation device. MyNav will combine Intermap’s high-quality ESI
product with the Giove 'turn-by-turn' outdoor routable trail
network.
Intermap's ESI product combines high-resolution optical images
with the high-resolution texture of the Company's NEXTMap digital
elevation data, which provides the device users with visualization
available for topography and actual terrain features. Intermap will
initially supply ESI products for Germany, with other
countries expected to be added in the future.
Intermap signed an agreement to supply AccuTerra GPS maps from
NEXTMap USA to Pronounced Technologies for its new line of GPS
devices with detailed road, trail, terrain, topographic contour,
points of interest, and land management maps. Products are
scheduled to be launched during the second half of 2009.
Intermap has a similar relationship with Magellan, Bushnell
Outdoor Products, and Navico/Lowrance bringing the total number of
OEM’s using AccuTerra data to five.

Automotive Market - Safety,
Navigation, and Fuel Efficiency
Intermap is creating highly accurate 3D road vectors from the
NEXTMap database to enable the enhancement of and help improve fuel
efficiency and vehicle safety in the transportation industry. From
its Detroit and Munich offices, Intermap is supporting advanced
automotive technologies in the industry.
In Germany, Intermap completed the initial stage of a
joint development agreement with Visteon to develop a predictive
adaptive front-lighting system (Predictive AFS) for passenger
vehicles. The advanced driver assistance system (ADAS), which
automatically turns a vehicle's headlights based on the road ahead,
has been successfully road tested in Germany. Demonstrator vehicles
equipped with predictive adaptive lighting (PAL) enabled by NEXTMap
data have been garnering increasing interest within the automotive
community. PAL enables a vehicle’s headlights to follow the road’s
natural turns and inclines/declines ahead of the vehicle. The
map-enabled headlights illuminate the road far more effectively,
significantly increasing overall road safety.
Risk Management
Insurance companies can use NEXTMap’s superior insurance risk
information to better define risk. The result can be more effective
portfolio management and a net reduction of costs through a reduced
need for reinsurance coverage and lower payouts after insurable
events occur. Intermap has commercial risk management solutions for
four countries in Europe and is conducting three pilot projects in
the United States.
NEXTMap Distribution
Partners/Resellers
Intermap continued the expansion of its distribution partners by
signing separate agreements with ESRI France and ESRI
Portugal, the leading geographic information system (GIS)
technology providers in their respective countries, to sell
Intermap’s highly accurate 3D digital elevation models (DEMs),
high-resolution orthorectified images, and advanced solutions to
their customers. From telecom engineering to flood risk assessment,
Intermap’s comprehensive database of countrywide geospatial
datasets, combined with ESRI’s broad expertise and advanced
software tools, can provide an outstanding value for ESRI
customers. In addition, the agreements call for the creation of
market-specific geospatial solutions optimized for use with ESRI
applications in each country.
Intermap also signed a new data distribution agreement with
Digital Data Services, a provider of mapping products and GIS
services, to offer NEXTMap data worldwide. Commercial
services from Digital Data Services include map scanning,
geo-referencing, digitizing, custom mapping projects, data
conversion, the creation of 3D fly-through simulations, and custom
geospatial projects that take advantage of the best remote-sensed
data available.
AIM
Cancellation
Effective August 13, 2009, Intermap will discontinue its
dual-listing on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange. The
decision follows a review of the AIM listing by the Company's Board
of Directors, sighting low levels of liquidity on the AIM, the
Company’s North American focused shareholder base, the comparable
dealing facility on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX), and the
additional costs associated with maintaining a listing on AIM. The
Company will maintain its primary listing of Common Shares on the
TSX.
NEXTMap data is available directly from Intermap, online at
www.TerrainOnDemand, or through selected partners worldwide.
