DENVER, March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Smart Move, Inc. (AMEX:MVE), a Denver-based asset logistics manager providing a unique, and increasingly popular alternative solution for transporting household and commercial goods, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.
For the year ended December 31, 2007 revenue increased by 39% to $5.8 million from $4.2 million recognized in 2006. The net loss for 2007 was $12.8 million, compared to a net loss of $9.9 million for the same period in 2006. The Company incurred significant non-cash expenses in 2007 and 2006. Total non-cash expenses in 2007 were approximately $8 million compared to non-cash expenses of approximately $5.1 million in 2006.
The increase in net loss from 2006 to 2007 is due primarily to:
-- an increase in interest expense of $1.1 million ($1.0 million of non
cash interest expense),
-- a non-cash loss on debt extinguishment of $1.3 million,
-- an increase in depreciation of $1.8 million,
-- non-cash impairment expense of $1.6 million, and an
-- increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of
approximately $141,000 (exclusive of depreciation, amortization and
non-cash compensation).
The above were reduced by an increase in income tax benefit of $2.1 million and the increase of $1.6 million in revenues.
Basic and diluted net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $(1.21), compared to $(1.77) reported in the same period in 2006. Net loss per share is based upon weighted average shares outstanding of 10,623,167 for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to 5,584,420 for the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase in weighted average shares is primarily due to the shares issued in conjunction with the December 2006 IPO, the conversion of debt and interest expense to common stock in 2006 and 2007.
Revenue for the fourth quarter increased by approximately $250,000 to $1,208,000, an increase of 26%.
"2007 has been a transition year for Smart Move. The company did not achieve the top line revenue we had anticipated for the year, but we believe that all of our efforts in establishing new revenue opportunities with van lines, our affiliate program and the acquisition of StarMove Alliance, set the stage for 2008. We have been very aggressive in partnering with van lines and corporate relocation companies, and are excited about the growth we project from these alliances. In addition we continue to see month over month and year over year growth in our internal move bookings. The company needs to secure additional capital in the near future to support operations while it continues to increase sales volume. We expect general sales activity to increase from all sources as we enter the 2008 moving season" said Chris Sapyta, President and Chief Executive Officer. He added, "We continue to explore alliance relationships as well as commercial opportunities that we believe will add value to Smart Move."
Selected highlights for the year ended December 31, 2007 versus the prior year follows:
-- We have added over $10.9 million of property and equipment, including
over 4,100 new SmartVault(TM) containers.
-- We believe our current fleet of approximately 4,500 SmartVaults(TM)
has the capacity to enable us to generate over $18 million in annual
revenues.
-- Smart Move lowered its average freight expense as compared to the
prior year period by 25%. Freight expense is the single biggest
component of cost of goods sold; in 2006 freight expense was 83% of
the top line revenues, for 2007, the average was 58%.
-- We launched our affiliate program which allows local moving companies
to book moves through our proprietary software. We estimate that
there are over 5,000 local moving companies in the markets that we
serve that we can target for this program.
-- We refined our software to provide for automation in the quoting of
long-distance freight costs, and to help improve our operating
margins.
-- We have refined our internal processes to allow us to handle
significant increases in the volume of moves with our existing
infrastructure.
-- The Smart Move concept gained recognition within the close-knit moving
industry community. National relocation firms became aware that Smart
Move's service offering addresses specific current needs in their
industry.
-- We expanded our alliances with leading interstate van lines that are
taking advantage of the outstanding transit times and performance
metrics that Smart Move has demonstrated it can deliver.
-- We acquired Star Move Alliance, which establishes us as a third party
move manager. The platform allows us to generate revenue from move
lead referrals, from direct booking fees from van lines and from our
completed jobs.
Cash Flow
In view of our lack of operating history and present inability to generate revenues sufficient to cover our operating expenses, our auditors have stated in their audit opinion that there currently exists a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Net cash used in operations was approximately $5.6 for the year ended December 31, 2007. Cash was consumed by the net loss of $12.8 million, less total non-cash expenses of approximately $8 million.
Noncash items included:
-- $3 million for depreciation,
-- $1.4 million of amortization of debt discounts,
-- $1.3 million of loss on debt extinguishment,
-- $1.6 million of impairments,
-- $284,000 in non-cash compensation costs,
-- $250,000 of shares and warrants issued upon conversion of interest to
equity, and
-- $168,000 of bad debts.
These non-cash charges were offset by a deferred income tax benefit of $2.4 million. Cash was also consumed by increases in accounts receivable of $126,000, prepaid expense and packing supplies of $125,000 and contracts in process of $149,000 during the period. An increase in accounts payable of $934,000, an increase in accrued interest of $705,000 and an increase in deferred revenue of $343,000 provided cash.
