American Defense Systems, Inc. (ADSI) (NYSE Amex: EAG), a provider of advanced transparent and opaque armor, architectural hardening and security products for Defense and Homeland Security, reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2010.

Q3 2010 Financial Results

Revenues from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2010 decreased 31% to $8.7 million from $12.6 million in the same year-ago quarter. This decrease was primarily due to a slow-down in government orders. Revenues from the company's physical security product business was $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2010, consistent with revenues in the same year-ago period.

Revenues from continuing operations for the first nine months in 2010 declined 1.7% to $35.6 million from $36.2 million in the same year-ago period. For the nine months, revenues from the company's physical security product business increased 152% to $8.3 million (23% of revenues), from $3.3 million (9% of revenues) in the comparable period in 2009.

Gross profit margin in the third quarter of 2010 was 46.7%, an improvement from 20.9% in the same year-ago quarter. The increase in gross profit margin resulted primarily from contract billings of $3.3 million that were under audit by the government as of June 30, 2010 and were recognized as revenue upon approval during the third quarter of 2010. The total contract was for $6.2 million of which $2.9 million of revenue and related cost of sales was recorded in the second quarter of 2010. The gross profit margin was 31.9% and 33.3% for the first nine months of 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Net loss in the third quarter totaled $395,000 or $(0.01) per share, an improvement from a net loss of $3.6 million or $(0.08) per share in the same year-ago period. Net loss in the first nine months of 2010 totaled $4.9 million or $(0.10) per share, an improvement from a net loss of $7.9 million or $(0.19) per share in the same year-ago period.

Adjusted EBITDA gain in the third quarter totaled $833,000 or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, versus an adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.7 million or $(0.04) per basic and diluted share in the same year-ago period (see the definition and important discussion about the presentation of adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP term, below).

Adjusted EBITDA loss in the first nine months totaled $164,000 or $(0.00) per basic and diluted share, versus an adjusted EBITDA loss of $627,000 or $(0.01) per basic and diluted share in the same year-ago period.

Third Quarter 2010 Operational Highlights

  • ADSI introduced Cold Fire Tactical™, a new military-grade fire suppressant. Cold Fire is a unique, environmentally friendly wetting agent that breaks the chemical chain reaction of fire and cools 21 times faster than water. The product is being sold under license from Firefreeze Worldwide, Inc., which provides ADSI exclusive rights to market the product to the United States Marine Corps.
  • Contract backlog at the end of the third quarter 2010 totaled $31 million, reduced from $38 million at the end of the previous quarter. The company expects to reduce backlog by approximately $7 million in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Management Commentary

"Revenues in the third quarter of 2010 came in slightly above our expectations, "said Anthony J. Piscitelli, chairman and CEO of American Defense Systems, "with a strong gross margin largely due to the timing of the recognition of revenue, as well as a slowdown in crew protection kit orders resulting in decreased costs in the quarter. We see this slowdown continuing into the fourth quarter, which is also typically our slowest, and have adjusted our expectations for the amount of our $31 million backlog we expect to ship before year's end.

"To offset this, we are continuing to focus on expanding our product mix beyond our core CPK business, reflected in the introduction in Q3 of our newest product, Cold Fire Tactical. We see strong potential for this product based on an expressed need by the military for better fire suppression systems, and we are aggressively pursuing this opportunity. We have also been very active internationally, and expect anticipated government clearances will pave the way for a number of major deals in our pipeline.

"Although flat in Q3 2010 on a year-over-year basis, our physical security segment of our business was a strong performer in the first nine months, up more than 150%, and driven primarily by sales to the private sector. We have been expecting our physical security business to grow from about 10% of our business last year to more than 25% going forward, and this remains on track. We believe the various high ratings, certifications, and endorsements we've received for our security products over the course of the last year will help pave the way for a stronger 2011."

Guidance

The company expects to report fourth quarter 2010 revenue of approximately $5.5 million, assuming order acceptance of completed orders.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other financial measures so calculated and presented, nor as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of the company's liquidity. ADSI defines adjusted EBITDA as net income/(loss) before net interest expense, depreciation, unrealized loss on adjustment of fair value of its Series A convertible preferred stock classified as a liability, income tax expense (benefit), loss on deemed extinguishment of debt, finance charge and unrealized loss (gain) on warrant liability. Other companies (including the company's competitors) may define adjusted EBITDA differently. The company presents adjusted EBITDA because it believes it to be an important supplemental measure of performance that is commonly used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in a similar industry. Management also uses this information internally for forecasting and budgeting. It may not be indicative of the historical operating results of ADSI nor is it intended to be predictive of potential future results. Investors should not consider adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results as reported under GAAP. See "Reconciliation of GAAP Loss to Adjusted EBITDA Income (Loss)" below for further information on this non-GAAP measure and reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net loss for the periods indicated.
