LEAWOOD, Kan., Aug. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Digital Ally, Inc.
(OTC Bulletin Board: DGLY), which develops, manufactures and markets advanced
video surveillance products for law enforcement, homeland security and
commercial security applications, today announced record revenue and net
income for the second quarter and first half of 2007. An investor conference
call is scheduled for 11:00 a.m. EDT today, August 6, 2007 (see details
below).
For the three months ended June 30, 2007 , the Company's revenue reached
approximately $3.8 million, compared with revenue of approximately
$0.8 million in the second quarter of the previous year. Revenue in the most
recent quarter compared with revenue of approximately $3.4 million in the
first quarter of 2007 and approximately $1.8 million in the fourth quarter of
2006, and continued a trend of impressive sequential growth in quarterly sales
that began when Digital Ally commenced shipping its advanced digital
surveillance products in March 2006 .
Gross profits totaled $2,638,900 in the second quarter of 2007, and gross
profit margin reached a record 69.1% of revenue. The Company reported net
income of $403,872, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the quarter ended June 30,
2007 , versus a net loss of ($938,812), or ($0.08) per share, in the
corresponding period of the previous year. Net income in the second quarter
of 2007 represented a 149% improvement when compared with net income of
$162,150 in the first quarter of 2007.
The Company incurred non-cash stock compensation expense of $386,609 in
the three months ended June 30, 2007 , compared with $469,579 in the second
quarter of 2006.
"I am pleased to report that 2007 is evolving into a 'breakout' year for
Digital Ally, with domestic and international orders continuing to expand
across a growing customer base," stated Stanton E. Ross, Chief Executive
Officer of the Company. "To date, we have received orders from law
enforcement agencies in 48 states, 11 foreign countries, and the U.S.
Government. During the second quarter, the number of states that have signed
statewide contracts with Digital Ally expanded to four, including West
Virginia, New Mexico , Arkansas and Wisconsin. Shortly after the end of the
quarter, we received the largest order in our history, from the State of
Mississippi, which also signed a contract authorizing the purchase of our
DVM-500 Digital In-Car Video Systems by municipal, county and state law
enforcement agencies throughout the state. We also recently announced receipt
of our largest international order, to date, from the Police Department in the
State of Queretaro in Central Mexico . Momentum continues to build as more law
enforcement agencies, domestically and abroad, become aware of the
space-saving and operational advantages of our DVM-500 in the field, and we
look forward to additional contract announcements in the second half of 2007."
"Our operating results, to date, primarily reflect sales of the DVM
Digital In-Car Video System Integrated into a Rearview Mirror," continued
Ross. "While we believe Digital Ally has only scratched the surface of the
market potential for its DVM systems, our sales during the second half of 2007
will also reflect a growing contribution from shipments of our Digital Video
Flashlight (DVF), which is creating considerable excitement within the law
enforcement industry. Our greatest challenge thus far during 2007 has been to
increase production at a rate consistent with our growth in orders from new
and existing customers. We significantly increased the production capacity at
our Kansas City facilities during the first half of the year, and the Company
is well-positioned to handle the higher level of orders anticipated during the
third and fourth quarters."
For the six months ended June 30, 2007 , the Company's revenue totaled
approximately $7.3 million, compared with revenue of approximately
$0.8 million in the first half of 2006. Gross profits totaled $4,714,586 in
the first half of 2007, for a gross profit margin of 64.9% of revenue,
compared with gross profits of $452,999 (54.1% of revenue) for the six months
ended June 30, 2006 . The Company reported net income of $566,022, or $0.04
per diluted share, in the six months ended June 30, 2007 , versus a net loss of
($1,955,371), or ($0.16) per share, in the corresponding period of the
previous year.
The Company incurred non-cash stock compensation expense of $908,522 in
the six months ended June 30, 2007 , compared with $752,588 in the first half
of the previous year.
"In addition to the impressive sales growth and profitability achieved
during the first two quarters of 2007, our financial condition continues to
strengthen," added Ross. "Net cash provided by operating activities totaled
$959,903 in the six months ended June 30, 2007 , compared with net cash used in
operating activities of ($2,331,375) in the first half of 2006. We ended the
second quarter with $468,272 of cash in the bank and no debt outstanding,
compared with a cash balance of $57,160 and $1 million in outstanding debt at
the end of last year."
The Company will host an investor conference call at 11:00 a.m. Eastern
