Pointer Telocation Reports Q3 2011 Financial Results
Record Revenues of $65.5M in first nine months of 2011, increase of 22% over 2010; Non-GAAP net income for Q3 2011 $1.1M
ROSH HAAYIN, Israel, November 30, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --
Pointer Telocation Ltd. (Nasdaq CM: PNTR, TASE: PNTR) - a leading developer, manufacturer and operator of Mobile Resource Management (MRM) and roadside assistance services for the automotive industry, announced today its financial results for the third quarter of 2011.
David Mahlab, Chief Executive Officer of Pointer, commented on the results: "We are pleased to report continuous growth in revenues and services in the third quarter, resulting from the increase in our business in Latin America and Israel. Our business in Brazil serves as a growth engine and we expect this momentum to continue in the coming quarters. We also expect an additional increase in our revenues from services in Israel. Nevertheless, the uncertainties in Europe and the global market, the high US Dollar exchange rate vs. the Israeli Shekel, and the tax increases expected in Israel tax rates in 2012, are all likely to affect the company's future financial results, and will require us to make adjustments to meet the challenging market conditions in the fourth quarter and in 2012. During 2011, Pointer continued to develop new products and penetrated new markets to reinforce and expand its customer base, consequently, we are confident that in the long run, this strategy will bear fruit, including improvements in our bottom line".

Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and Non-GAAP basis:
Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and Non-GAAP basis is provided in a table immediately following the Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Pointer uses adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income as a non-GAAP financial performance measurement.
We calculate adjusted EBITDA by adding back to net income, financial expenses, taxes, depreciation, a non-recurring expense of $0.5 million, attributable to the Company's efforts to expand various services to Israeli insurance companies, and amortization including the effect of non-cash impairment charge related to the fair market value of Cellocator.
We calculate non-GAAP net income by adding back to net income, non-cash equity based compensation, amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions and non-cash tax expenses resulting from timing differences relating to the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and goodwill.
The purpose of such adjustments is to give an indication of our performance exclusive of non-GAAP charges that are considered by management to be outside of our core operating results.
Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income are provided to investors to complement results provided in accordance with GAAP, as management believes the measure helps illustrate underlying operating trends in the Company's business and uses the measure to establish internal budgets and goals, manage the business and evaluate performance. We believe that these non-GAAP measures help investors to understand our current and future operating cash flow and performance, especially as our three most recent acquisitions have resulted in amortization and non-cash items that have had a material impact on our GAAP profits. Adjusted EBITDA and non GAAP net income should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable measures calculated and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may differ materially from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
