TRM Corporation Announces Full Year and Fourth Quarter 2007 Financial Results
PORTLAND, Ore., March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- TRM Corporation
(Nasdaq: TRMM) today announced fourth quarter and full year 2007 financial
results. The Company filed its Form 10-K for the year today.
Richard Stern, President and CEO of TRM Corporation, stated, "2007 was a
transitional year for TRM as a company. We began the year addressing our
balance sheet issues and finished the year focused on our income statement and
operational results. Towards that end, I am pleased with all that we
accomplished. Most importantly, we experienced improved operating results,
largely as a result of our ongoing restructuring effort. In addition, we
completed the Triple DES compliance project that was undertaken throughout
2007 and we continue to optimize our ATM operations and contracts."

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is a non-GAAP term. Please

EBITDA from continuing operations.
Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2007
In 2007, gross sales were $90.4 million and net sales were $33.7 million.
Revenue performance reflects a consistent level of transactions per unit with
fewer ATM units in the field. The average number of transacting ATMs was
10,253 during 2007 compared to an average of 12,378 during 2006. The decrease
is primarily the result of attrition in ATM contracts acquired from eFunds in
2004. The Company expects the number of ATMs will continue to decrease in
2008 unless the Company executes on its previously announced desire to seek
acquisition-led growth. During 2007, the Company added 1,000 new ATM units,
including 57 in the fourth quarter of 2007.
Mr. Stern continued, "We continued to experience improved operating
results stemming from the continued vigilance regarding our cost structure.
In the fourth quarter, we reported net income and positive Adjusted EBITDA
from continuing operations, and we expect that trend to continue in 2008. We
are also further encouraged by the fact that our average withdrawals per unit
per month have been maintained at a level consistent with 2006, which points
to our focus on maintaining the quality of our existing estate."
Cost of sales in 2007 decreased 2.6% to $22.9 million from $23.5 million
in 2006, despite a one-time inventory write-down in the 3rd quarter of 2007 as
well as increases in August and September 2007 vault cash costs reflecting
increased volatility in the commercial paper market. The Company would have
seen a decrease of approximately 4.7% excluding the inventory write-down and
elevated vault cash costs. Going forward, the Company expects to benefit from
improved vault cash costs commensurate with stability in the commercial paper
market and the Company's continued focus on the primary cost drivers including
processing, armored car, maintenance and telecommunication costs.
For the year, selling, general and administrative expense decreased 46% to
$16.5 million from $30.5 million in 2006. This decrease is primarily the
result of the Company's restructuring efforts and its continued focus on
expense reductions and optimizing efficiency.
TRM Corporation reported an operating loss of $8.5 million and loss from
continuing operations of $13.7 million for the full year 2007. This compares
to an operating loss of $55.8 million and loss from continuing operations of
$53.6 million in 2006. The Company notes that 2006 results were largely
influenced by impairment charges of goodwill and intangible assets of
$43.3 million. The Company notes that 2007 operating performance was
negatively impacted by approximately $2.8 million of costs for the following
items:
-- Equipment write-off of approximately $1.9 million related to three
merchant contracts that were terminated and the consolidation of its
service centers across the country
-- Restructuring cost for termination of leased office and warehouse space
and severance of approximately $963,000
Michael Dolan, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, stated, "We
continued to recognize costs associated with our restructuring efforts in
2007, but I am pleased to see a sequential improvement in our operating loss
in the fourth quarter. This modest improvement reflects the initial steps we
have taken through the year to aggressively adjust our cost structure and
renegotiate our vendor contracts. We also focused on improving our
profitability on a unit by unit basis."
The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is
the most accurate reflection of ongoing operations as well as recent
efficiencies in the cost structure. On a sequential basis, TRM's 2007
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was ($2.8) million compared to
($3.6) million in 2006. A positive indicator that the Company's performance
is experiencing the effects of the restructuring and cost containment efforts
is the positive $1.5 million of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations in
the fourth quarter compared to ($4.7) million Adjusted EBITDA from continuing
operations in the fourth quarter of 2006. Our operating results for the
fourth quarter and full year 2007 include a $2.0 million credit to expense
relating to termination of an agreement with one of our vendors.
For the year, the Company reported a net loss of $8.4 million.
Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter Ended December 31, 2007
-- Net sales of $7.9 million versus $9.7 million in the fourth quarter of
2006
-- Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $1.5 million in the
fourth quarter 2007 compared to ($4.7) million in the prior year
period
-- A narrowing of operating loss in the fourth quarter 2007 to ($215,000)
from ($5.4) million in the prior year period
-- A narrowing of loss from continuing operations in the fourth quarter
2007 to ($797,000) from ($5.5) million in the prior year period
-- Net income for the fourth quarter 2007 of $906,000 compared with a net
loss of ($15.2) million in the prior year period
