Net profits continue in Q3 2009 despite revenue decline in challenging economic environment Substantial improvement in cash flow and debt reduction through the first nine months of 2009, versus last year SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Nov. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- TechTeam Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:TEAM), a worldwide provider of information technology outsourcing and business process outsourcing services, today reported net income of $0.9 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared to a net income of $1.9 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Third quarter highlights include the following: -- Revenue was $52.3 million, a decrease of $11.8 million or 18.4% from the third quarter 2008. The decrease was largely due to $1.9 million lower revenues from the divestiture of ANE (on October 31, 2008), an approximate $1.8 million impact of exchange rates on revenue, and an approximate $8.1 million or 13.1% decrease of revenue related to erosion and the previously announced wind-down of certain customer contracts. -- Cash provided by operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $16.4 million, a significant improvement over the $3.8 million in cash provided by operations for the same period in 2008, principally driven by improvements in profitability and working capital management. -- The Company reduced its total debt by $16.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Approximately 46% of the Company's outstanding debt has been eliminated over the past nine months. -- Gross margin was 23.0% in the third quarter 2009, essentially flat versus 23.1% in the third quarter 2008. SG&A expense was $10.4 million in the third quarter 2009, a decrease of 6.1% from $11.0 million in the third quarter 2008. SG&A costs as a percent of revenue increased to 19.8% from 17.2% due to the revenue decline year over year. -- TechTeam was named to the No. 1 position globally in help desk outsourcing in the Black Book of Outsourcing 2009 Survey on Top Infrastructure Management Outsourcing Vendors. -- The Company continues to expand existing client relationships in its commercial business with numerous wins totaling $13 million in contract value, including substantial scope expansions with two large multi-national clients. -- The Company's government business unit was awarded numerous re-competes and option renewals in the quarter totaling approximately $15 million in contract value. Further, the business unit won new business totaling $2 million. "The Company's third quarter 2009 results continued to be affected by a challenging global economic environment," said Gary J. Cotshott, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We experienced some revenue erosion and new business decision delays during the quarter. To counter the challenge of price pressure and volume reductions, we continue to manage costs very closely and quickly adjust capacity to meet changes in demand. Despite the tough environment, customers continue to seek high quality, lower cost alternatives to support their IT infrastructure. As a result, our pipeline of new account opportunities continues to be strong. While decisions are subject to longer decision cycles, our pipeline provides a solid basis to recover lost revenue over time." In the first quarter of fiscal 2009, management changed its methodology for evaluation of the performance of the Company's outsourcing services. As a result of this change, certain costs, which were previously included in Selling, general and administrative expense, are now being included in Cost of revenue in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income because they are directly related to revenue. The Company's financial statements for fiscal year 2008 have been revised, for all periods presented, to conform to the current year presentation. This re-categorization of expenses did not change net income or earnings per share, for all periods presented, in fiscal year 2008. There was no cumulative effect to retained earnings as a result of this re-categorization, and there was no change to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in fiscal 2008. For additional financial information please refer to the Company's Form 10-Q, for the quarterly period ending September 30, 2009, filed today. Further information regarding the re-categorization of expense can be found in "Note 1 - Basis of Presentation" of the Form 10-Q.
