Cash Systems, Inc. (AMEX:CKN), a provider of cash access solutions for the gaming industry, today announced financial results for the second quarter 2005. Revenue for the second quarter increased 35% to $16.0 million from $11.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2004. The increase reflects the continued expansion of products and services to gaming customers. Operating expenses for the second quarter increased 73% to $18.7 million from $10.8 million in the prior year period. The increase in operating expenses in the second quarter of 2005 compared to the second quarter of 2004 is primarily due to: -- An allowance of $1.6 million pre tax for potentially uncollectible settlements due from processors. -- A reserve of $300,000 pre tax, or $0.01 per share after tax, for bad debt expense in check cashing operations. -- Professional consulting fees of $800,000 relating to Sarbanes Oxley 404 compliance, accounting, systems and remediation efforts during the quarter. -- Increased casino commissions, processing expense and payroll costs commensurate with the growth in revenue. Net loss was ($1.7 million) or ($0.10) per diluted share, compared to net income of $0.6 million or $0.04 per diluted share in the prior year period. Michael Rumbolz, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cash Systems, Inc. stated, "This company has undergone a significant transformation in the last six months as we made necessary investments in many aspects of the business. While these investments have impacted our near-term operating results today, we believe we made the right decisions in solidifying our systems, operations, team and infrastructure so that we can effectively capitalize on the significant growth opportunities we have identified." Liquidity The Company finished the second quarter of 2005 with cash and cash equivalents of $15.4 million, compared to $13.0 million at December 31, 2004. Current cash balances and operating cash flow are expected to provide the Company with sufficient resources to meet its existing obligations, currently planned capital expenditure requirements and funding for internal growth initiatives. Guidance The Company expects revenue of approximately $60.0 - $62.0 million in fiscal 2005 compared to previous guidance of $64.0 - $66.0 million. The decrease in revenue guidance is primarily due to a slower than expected rollout at certain customers, which will continue into the second half of 2005. Additionally, the Company now expects diluted losses per share of ($0.10) in 2005, compared to prior guidance of income per diluted share of $0.19 - $0.22. These estimates include the following costs and expenses: -- The allowance for potentially uncollectible settlements due from processors of $1.6 million pretax, or approximately $0.06 per share after tax. -- The reserve of $300,000 pretax, or $0.01 per share after tax, related to bad debt in the check cashing business. -- An increase in Sarbanes Oxley and consulting remediation costs to $1.6 million, up from previous estimates of $800,000 - $1.0 million, which impacts guidance by $0.03 per share, after tax. -- The remainder of the difference reflects the Company's reduced revenue forecast and the resulting impact that has on revenue mix, as well as higher ongoing general and administrative costs as the Company completes infrastructure-related investments. The Company's guidance for 2005 does not assume the addition of new contracts.
