MINNEAPOLIS, Oct 23, 2002 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Net Perceptions, Inc.
(Nasdaq:NETP) today reported revenue of $1.6 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2002 and a pro forma loss of $552,000, or ($0.02) per share. In
the same period last year the Company reported $2.2 million in revenue and a pro
forma loss of $3.5 million, or ($0.13) per share. The Company reported a GAAP
third quarter loss of $626,000, or ($0.02) per share, compared with a GAAP loss
of $6.2 million, or ($0.23) per share in the same period last year. Pro forma
information excludes restructuring related activity, amortization and impairment
of goodwill and other intangibles and stock compensation expense for all periods
discussed.
"We are very pleased with the progress of our cost control measures. We've been
able to remain very focused on that process without sacrificing efforts in
product development and sales," said Don Peterson, Net Perceptions president and
CEO. "NetP 7 continues to be well-received by customers and prospects, and we've
proven that it drives hard ROI with a low-risk, rapid implementation. Our focus
now is on continuing to enhance NetP 7 with more features that our customers
need, and on shortening the sales cycle - to close more deals faster."
Outlook
The Company is not providing financial guidance for the fourth quarter of 2002
due to uncertain revenue predictability in the current spending environment. The
Company expects total pro forma operating expenses for the fourth quarter of
approximately $2.5 million. Net Perceptions completed the third quarter with
$64.6 million in cash and short-term investments. The Company believes that its
cash use for the remaining three months of 2002 will not exceed $2.0 million.
