CEO Commentary
Brian Crowley, chief executive officer of Bsquare, commented on Q2 results and business activity, "Second quarter revenue came in at the high end of our expectations. We are currently focused on driving revenue growth in three areas: harvesting the investment we have made in our TestQuest product, expanding our service capabilities around the upcoming Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 releases from Microsoft and growing our Microsoft Windows embedded licensing and service revenue in Europe. Revenue growth from our investment initiatives has been slower than we anticipated. Therefore, we made the difficult decision in July to reduce our R&D spending by approximately $1.3 million per year primarily through staff reductions. These reductions are in addition to the $1.6 million per year reduction in sales and service expense we made during the first quarter. We expect that the full impact of the R&D reductions will be realized in the fourth quarter, approximately 15% of which will impact software cost of goods sold. While we improved our service margins during the quarter, we still have more work to do. We are still carrying excess service capacity and expect that we will either absorb that capacity into new projects that start in the second half of the year, or we will work excess capacity down mainly through attrition and targeted staff furloughs. Our goal in adjusting expense levels is to be profitable at current revenue levels and at our current margin profile."
During Q2, the Company made progress on a number of key initiatives, including:
- The Company renewed its OEM distribution agreement with Microsoft. The agreement, which is effective for the period July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2013, renews the Company's Microsoft distribution relationship for the 14th year and allows the Company to distribute the complete line of Microsoft Windows Embedded operating systems within the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean. The Company also distributes the entire Microsoft Windows Embedded portfolio in the United Kingdom and Germany;
- The Company announced general availability of the next generation Mobile Development Platform (MDP/T) for Android tablets based on Qualcomm's Snapdragon" S4 Pro Processor. The MDP/T provides application developers and device manufacturers with access to a high-performance Android 4.0 platform for developing, testing, optimizing and showcasing applications and games; and
- The Company also announced general availability of a DragonBoard" development platform for Android", which is intended to facilitate development and testing by device makers, application developers and other hardware and software ecosystem suppliers who are working with devices that run on Qualcomm's Snapdragon" S1 MSM7x27A processor.
Financial Commentary on Second Quarter Results (Y/Y Comparison)
- The decrease in proprietary software revenue, down $935,000 or 54%, was driven by a significant decline in Texas Instruments OMAP-related revenue and Snapdragon devkit sales classified as proprietary software revenue in the prior year and which are now classified as third-party software sales;
- The decrease in third-party software gross margin, down 12% or two percentage points, was driven by the fact that the prior year included a higher mix of non-Microsoft licensing revenue which carries a higher margin;
- The increase in service margin, up 11% or two percentage points, was due to project overruns in the prior year, which did not reoccur to the same extent in the current year;
- The decline in proprietary software margin, down 24% or 19 percentage points, was driven by lower revenue in the current quarter compared to a relative fixed cost of proprietary software sales;
- The decline in operating expenses, down $433,000 or 9%, was primarily attributable to a decline in sales expense due to staff reductions and lower stock compensation expense; and
- Quarter-end cash and investments of $20.8 million, including long-term amounts, declined by $2.4 million compared to June 30, 2011 due to the net cash used to date in the acquisition of MPC Data Ltd. in September 2011 of $4.8 million. Cash and investments increased $3.1 million from March 31, 2012.
Outlook
The Company currently has the following expectations for Q3 2012:
- Total revenue is expected to be in the range of $24 million to $26 million; and
- Cash and investments are projected to decrease by approximately $500,000 due primarily to negative working capital effects.

(1) EBITDAS is a non-GAAP financial measure. Generally, a non-GAAP
financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance,
financial position or cash flow that either excludes or includes amounts
that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable
measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDAS is
defined as net income (loss) before income taxes, interest income,
depreciation expense on our fixed assets and amortization expense
(including impairment) on our intangible assets, and stock-based
compensation. EBITDAS should not be construed as a substitute for net
income (loss) or net cash provided by (used in) operating activities (all
as determined in accordance with GAAP) for the purpose of analyzing our
operating performance, financial position and cash flows, as EBITDAS is
not defined by GAAP. However, the Company regards EBITDAS as a complement
to net income and other GAAP financial performance measures, including an
indirect measure of operating cash flow.
