Jacada Reports First Quarter 2009 Results

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 21, 2009--Jacada Ltd. (Nasdaq: JCDA), a leading provider of unified desktop and process optimization solutions for customer service operations, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009.

For the first quarter of 2009, total revenues were $4.5 million compared to $6.2 million in the first quarter of 2008. Total gross profit for the 2009 first quarter was $1.4 million or 31% of total revenues, compared to $3.8 million and 60%, respectively, in the 2008 first quarter. The first quarter net loss from continuing operations was ($1.4 million), or ($0.09) per share. This is compared to a net loss from continuing operations of ($521,000) or ($0.03) per share in the first quarter of 2008. During the 2008 first quarter, the Company recognized $20.6 million, or $1.00 per share, in income (net of taxes) from discontinued operations, which was generated in the form of a capital gain from the sale of the Company’s legacy business during the 2008 first quarter.

On April 16, 2009, Jacada announced the appointment of Thomas H. Clear as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Clear brings significant executive experience in telecommunications, a key vertical for Jacada. During his career he has served as the CIO for Southwestern Bell Mobile Systems (now AT&T), and held key executive management positions at both Amdocs and Convergys. Most recently, Mr. Clear was the chief commercial officer for the UK-based start-up Spinvox, successfully launching the first commercial voice to text service for voicemail and closing contracts with over a dozen tier 1 telecommunications providers in less than 2 years.

“We are thrilled that Tom has joined Jacada as our new CEO,” said Gideon Hollander, chairman of the board of directors for Jacada. “Tom brings to Jacada vast experience, talent and skills in business leadership that will allow Jacada to continue to innovate and bring to market additional value through our solutions, as we execute our strategy.”

“I have experienced first-hand the enormous need for a unified desktop solution like the one offered by Jacada, and truly understand the value it brings to our customers in terms of reduced operating costs and improved customer service and retention,” said Tom Clear, chief executive officer for Jacada. “We will focus our efforts on managing through these difficult times, so that we may be in a stronger position to benefit from an economic recovery. I look forward to helping Jacada realize the tremendous potential we all believe exists in our market and from our solutions.”

“Our professional services revenue is up 15% in relation to the same quarter last year,” continued Mr. Clear. “The increase was driven by our backlog of booked services contracts and new services engagements with existing customers, including a material contract extension with a German telecommunications provider that we announced in March. Many of our existing customers are expanding their relationship with Jacada based on the significant savings and improved customer service that they are realizing from their initial projects. But, as is the case with many of our peers, the current economic climate has impacted our sales cycles and has resulted in a slower pace of bookings, and consequently lower revenues. The cost reductions for 2009, which were recently announced and implemented, are designed to better align costs with our revenue expectations and will help minimize the use of our cash.”

At the end of the first quarter of 2009 cash and investments were $32.8 million, compared to $33.1 million reported as of December 31, 2008.
