Exhibit 99.1
Iteris Holdings Inc. Reports $368,000 in Operating Income from Continuing Operations on 16.2% Increase in Revenues
ANAHEIM, Calif.Oct. 29, 2003For its second quarter ended Sept. 30, 2003, Iteris Holdings Inc., formerly known as Odetics Inc. (OTC BB:ITRSA) & (OTC BB:ITRSB) today reported operating income from continuing operations of $368,000 compared to operating income of $11,000 reported in the second quarter of the previous fiscal year. The Company reported net sales and contract revenues of $11.3 million in the second quarter of the current fiscal year, an increase of 16.2% compared to net sales and contract revenues of $9.7 million in the second quarter of the previous fiscal year. Net sales and contract revenues of $22.8 million for the six months ended Sept. 30, 2003 increased 14.2% over net sales and contract revenues of $19.9 million in the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. Excluded from operating income during the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2003, is a non-operating gain from the sale of discontinued operations of $2.7 million, principally in connection with the divestiture of the companys MAXxess Systems Subsidiary. Continuing operations in all periods have been restated to reflect only the operations of Iteris Holdings Inc. and its subsidiary, Iteris Inc.
Commenting on the results, Greg Miner, Chief Executive Officer, stated: The second quarter ended September 30, 2003 was a milestone period for our business. During the quarter we successfully generated operating income from our continuing operations and transitioned our business to focus on the market for Intelligent Transportations Systems. Integral to this transition was the divestiture of our former subsidiary, MAXxess Systems Inc., in a transaction structured as a management buy-out. In another transaction, we completed the divestiture of the remaining assets of our former Broadcast operation that had been idled since last March. We also changed the name of the Company from `Odetics Inc. to `Iteris Holdings Inc., to reflect our focus of capitalizing on our leadership in vision sensing systems and system integration services for the Intelligent Transportations Systems industry.
Miner added: We are currently exploring the possibility of merging our Iteris subsidiary into Iteris Holdings Inc. We believe the shareholders will benefit from a simpler capital structure for the business, and a solid platform from which to exploit opportunities in next generation vision systems.
Operational highlights during the current fiscal quarter included:
Vantage(TM) Video Detection systems achieved 20.7% sales growth in the quarter compared to the second quarter of last fiscal year.
In the heavy truck market, AutoVue(TM) Lane Departure warning systems sales more than doubled during the quarter compared to the second quarter of last fiscal year.
The company entered into a broad scale strategic partnership with Valeo of France, which is expected to make Iteris Lane Departure Warning Technology available to the worldwide passenger car market in 2004.
Year to date contract bookings for Iteris systems integration and consulting revenues increased 26.1% through Sept. 30, 2003 compared to the last fiscal year. Contract revenues recognized in the current fiscal year increased 3.4% in the three months ended Sept. 30, 2003 compared to the same quarter of last fiscal year.
