HACKENSACK, N.J., March 30 /-FirstCall/ -- GoAmerica, Inc.
(Nasdaq: GOAM) today announced results for the fourth quarter and year ended
December 31, 2005.
Total revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2005 was
approximately $1.8 million, compared to total revenue in the previous quarter
of approximately $2.3 million and total revenue of approximately $1.3 million
in the fourth quarter of 2004. Annual revenues for 2005 were approximately
$8.1 million compared with $6.2 million for 2004.
Net loss for the fourth quarter was approximately $1.3 million, or $0.60
per diluted common share, compared with a net loss of $994,000, or $0.48 per
diluted common share, during the previous quarter, and a net loss of $722,000,
or $0.35 per diluted common share, during the fourth quarter of 2004. Net
loss for 2005 was approximately $4.4 million, or $2.05 per diluted common
share, compared with a net loss of $4.4 million or $2.49 per diluted common
share in 2004.
The Company maintains a strong balance sheet with approximately
$5.1 million in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as of December 31,
2005, compared to $5.2 million as of September 30, 2005 and $7.7 million as of
December 31, 2004. During 2005, the Company loaned approximately $530,000 to
Hands On Video Relay Services, Inc. pursuant to a short-term loan agreement,
which amount is secured by liens on Hands On assets and substantially all of
which is expected to be repaid with interest between June 2006 and December
2007.
The Company believes that it has sufficient funds to execute its business
plan, which focuses on providing differentiated communication services to
people with hearing loss.
"Our i711-branded relay services have been well received by deaf consumers
since their launch a year ago," said Mark Stern, GoAmericas vice president of
product management. "Our i711 results have exceeded our internal expectations
and we continue to build momentum in the market through the introduction of
new services such as our launch of i711 Wireless on the T-Mobile Sidekick in
February 2006, and our expected launch of i711 Wireless for BlackBerry in the
second quarter."
Telecommunications Relay Services are free to the users. Relay service
providers are reimbursed on a per-conversation minute basis by the National
Exchange Carriers Association, based upon rates established annually by the
Federal Communications Commission.
Summary of recent activities:
* Launch of i711 Wireless(TM) for Sidekick - On February 6, 2006,
GoAmerica introduced i711 Wireless for the T-Mobile Sidekick(R). The
new application expands access to the companys online i711(TM) relay
service, and enables deaf and hard of hearing users to place relay calls
from their Sidekick handheld devices.
* Termination of proposed Hands On Merger - GoAmerica received a letter
from Hands On, dated March 1, 2006, in which Hands On purportedly
terminated the merger agreement among the parties. On March 7, 2006,
after discussions between Hands On and GoAmerica, GoAmerica announced
that its was no longer pursuing its planned merger with Hands On despite
the fact that Hands On shareholders had approved the merger on February
22, 2006 and GoAmerica had achieved a quorum in its shareholder vote,
with results overwhelmingly in favor of completing the merger.
GoAmerica has subsequently notified Hands On to commence repayment of
approximately $600,000 pursuant to the short term loan agreement between
the parties.
"While the proposed merger with Hands On would have added immediate value
to the combined company, we are now exploring equally -- if not more --
attractive methods of entry into video relay as well as other options that we
believe may have more benefit to our stockholders in the longer term," said
Dan Luis, CEO of GoAmerica. "We are also continuing to broaden access to our
i711 text relay offerings while improving our other current businesses."
The Company is also filing today its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.
