Food Safety Catalyst for Record 36% Year-Over-Year Revenue Growth 
Record Profitability Demonstrates Inherent Leverage of Business Model 
Results Reflect Continued Acceleration Across the Business

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 07, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Park City Group (NASDAQ:PCYG), a cloud-based software company that uses big data management to help retailers and their suppliers ‘sell more, stock less and see everything’, today announced results for its fiscal first quarter ended September 30, 2016. 

Strategic and Financial Highlights:

  • Fiscal first quarter revenue increased 36% year-over-year, exceeding $4 million for the first time. “We continue to see acceleration in revenue growth, driven by stronger momentum at ReposiTrak,” said Randall K. Fields, Park City Group’s Chairman and CEO. “This was Park City Group’s largest revenue quarter ever. Total revenue for the quarter was a record $4.2 million, an increase of 36% year-over-year, which was also the highest quarterly growth rate in our history.”
  • Record net income was $614,000 in the fiscal first quarter, or 15% of total revenue. “First quarter’s net income exceeded our expectations, and at $614,000, was nearly equal to net income in all of fiscal 2016. Net income margin expanded to its highest level ever of 15%, which demonstrates the strong incremental contribution margin inherent in our business model,” said Mr. Fields. 
  • Fiscal first quarter results reflected continued acceleration in ReposiTrak momentum. “During the quarter, we were chosen as the food safety solution by several of the industry’s most influential players. As a result, we now have 31 ReposiTrak Hubs, up from 15 a year ago. Our success improving food safety compliance for our customers continues to be excellent. Our obsession with customer success continues to be the driver of our own success.”
  • Growing customer network and accelerating connections reflect strengthening industry position. “First quarter’s growth shows that ReposiTrak is increasingly becoming the dominant Food Safety platform,” said Mr. Fields. “We officially announced our integration with SQFI, the leading standard in food safety auditing, increasing our credibility and extending our capabilities.
  • Strong demand for supply-chain services is also contributing to record revenue growth. “Our strategy to converge the two businesses has created greater opportunities with many of our Hubs. As a result, demand for our supply-chain services is getting even stronger. Importantly, several of our fastest growing supply-chain Hubs are also our largest,” said Mr. Fields.
  • Outlook for continued positive financial momentum in fiscal 2017. “We remain confident revenue growth in fiscal 2017 will be the highest ever, and that profitability will scale materially. We anticipate adding 12-15 new Hubs in fiscal 2017, and now believe that our goal of doubling supplier connections could prove to be conservative,” said Mr. Fields. “Expense growth is controlled, giving us confidence in our ability to generate double-digit net income margins and significant cash flow.”

Financial Results Summary:

Fiscal First Quarter Results: Total revenue rose 36% to $4.22 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, from $3.10 million a year ago. Total operating expenses during the quarter were $3.54 million, a 1% increase from $3.52 million a year ago. As a result, net income was $614,000, versus a loss of $407,000 a year ago. Net income to common shareholders was $428,000, or $0.02 per common share, as compared to a loss of $607,000, or ($0.03) per share, a year ago. The Company ended the fiscal first quarter of 2017 with $11.4 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Specific disclosure relating to the acquisition of ReposiTrak, including management’s analysis of results from operations and financial condition, are contained in the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Investors are encouraged to read and consider such disclosure and analysis contained in the Company’s Form 10-Q and other reports, including the risk factors contained in the Form 10-Q.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the following financial measures defined as “non-GAAP financial measures” by the Securities and Exchange Commission: non-GAAP EBITDA, non-GAAP earnings per share, net debt and free cash flow. These measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The presentation of this financial information, which is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest comparable GAAP measures will be provided upon the completion of the Company’s annual audit.

Non-GAAP EBITDA excludes items such as impairment charges, allowance for doubtful accounts, charges to consolidate and integrate recently acquired businesses, costs of closing corporate facilities, non-cash stock based compensation and other one-time cash and non-cash charges. Non-GAAP EPS excludes items such as non-cash stock based compensation, charges to consolidate and integrate recently acquired businesses, costs for closing corporate facilities, amortization of acquired intangible assets and other one-time cash and non-cash charges. Net debt is the total debt balance less the cash balance. Free cash flow includes net cash provided (used) by operating activities less replacement purchases of property and equipment. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses, gains and losses or net purchases of property and equipment, as the case may be, which may not be indicative of its core operation results and business outlook. Because Park City Group has historically reported certain non-GAAP results to investors, the Company believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP measures provides consistency in financial reporting.

In addition to reporting financial measures on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, management has elected to disclose certain financial measures on a pro-forma basis because it believes this pro-forma comparison is more appropriate to its current accounting treatment for the business. The pro-forma financial results of the Company presented in this release reflect the elimination of Park City Group’s historical accounting treatment of ReposiTrak as a customer of the Company and present the Company’s prior financial results as if ReposiTrak were a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
