Broadcast International Reports Second Quarter 2012 Results
SALT LAKE CITY, UT--(Marketwire - Aug 14, 2012) - Broadcast International (
Q2 2012 Highlights

- Partnered with Beenius to offer a processing platform for its new 'Beesmart' interactive TV service
- Debuted new CodecSys Media Server capable of streaming content from a unified source to multiple clients and devices for a complete "TV Anywhere" solution

Q2 2012 Financial Results
Revenue in the second quarter 2012 increased 14% sequentially to $2.0 million from $1.8 million in the prior quarter, and decreased 16% from $2.4 million the same year-ago period. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to fewer expansion sites installed for the company's largest digital signage customer.
Gross profit in the second quarter 2012 was $654,000 or 33% of total revenue, an improvement from $499,600 or 29% of total revenue in the previous quarter, and compared to $736,600 or 31% of total revenue in the same year-ago period.
Operating loss in the second quarter 2012 was $1.8 million, an improvement from an operating loss of $2.1 million in the previous quarter, and versus an operating loss of $1.6 million in the same year-ago period.
Net profit in the second quarter 2012 totaled $847,200 or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $185,000 or $(0.00) per basic and diluted share in the prior quarter, and an improvement from a net profit of $442,300 or $0.01 per basic and diluted share in the same year-ago period. The year-over-year improvement was primarily due to an increase in the company's derivative valuation of $772,300, offset by the increased loss from operations and interest expense.
Management Commentary
"Our Q2 and first half 2012 results reflect our continued focus on driving margin expansion and expense optimization," said Jim Solomon, CFO of Broadcast International. "Our progress is illustrated by the several milestones we achieved for the first half of the year, including the highest gross profit and gross margin in the company's history.
"We are encouraged by these results and will continue to focus on driving revenue growth, while balancing operating expenses and customer commitments. Along those lines, we recently implemented cost-cutting initiatives to further optimize our organization. Specifically, we made significant reductions in headcount, operating and administrative expenses. We anticipate these initiatives will decrease our quarterly operating expenses by more than $600,000 when the program is fully implemented."
William Boyd, chairman of Broadcast International, commented: "From an operational perspective, Broadcast continues to win new customers by harnessing the increasing demand for enterprise IP video and OTT solutions across all global markets. In fact, our sales pipeline continues to expand, as we leverage our disruptive and patented CodecSys technology to capitalize on the rapid industry transition.
"We expect these opportunities to drive significant revenue growth in the second half of the year. With our strong revenue outlook, coupled with our recent and ongoing expense reductions, we expect to reach cash flow breakeven in the fourth quarter. The executive committee will continue to work closely with the management team to achieve these objectives that ultimately, will benefit Broadcast shareholders, customers and employees."
