STOCKHOLM, Sweden, June 11, 2002 (PRIMEZONE) -- Industri-Matematik International Corp. (Nasdaq:IMIC), the Order Company, today announced results for its fourth fiscal quarter and fiscal year ended April 30, 2002.

Revenues for the fourth quarter and fiscal year were $12.6 million and $55.3 million, respectively, as compared to $18.5 million and $69.4 million for the same period in 2001. License revenue for the fourth quarter was $0.4 million as compared to $3.5 million for the same period in 2001, and service and maintenance revenue was $11.5 million as compared to $14.1 million for the same period in 2001.

The reported net loss for the fourth quarter and fiscal year was $3.0 million and $6.6 million, respectively, as compared to $26.9 million and $35.3 million for the same period in 2001.

Stig Durlow, President and Chief Executive Officer of Industri-Matematik, said, "While our pipeline continues to grow with new opportunities, we are seeing a reluctance by companies to commit their investment dollars. Deals are maturing through our pipeline but the closing process is often being postponed. We believe this is due to an underlying general uncertainty in the direction of the economy."

"Industri-Matematik continues to make progress in creating expanded market visibility and sales activity in all our global markets, especially in the Americas. Pivotal to this progress is the Company's strategy of focus and execution, where we have tailored our order and replenishment business process solutions to specific industries in the retail value chain across target geographic markets. Also important is our initiative to sell our expanded product line to existing customers.

"This strategy is reflected in our go-to-market branding of Industri-Matematik as the Order Company. We believe that the best way for companies to achieve supply chain and business success is to focus on actual demand - the order. Industry experts, customers and prospects have all responded favorably to our strategy and solutions that help companies optimize their order life cycles and replenishment processes, building our sales pipeline," continued Mr. Durlow.

"On the customer front, the fourth quarter saw Warner/Electra/Atlantic Corp. go live with a collaborative order management application and Canadian Tire go live with a visibility and event management application to improve multi-channel distribution.

"Organizationally, the Company continues to tailor its organization to drive revenue and keep costs in alignment. As part of this process, we have reduced overheads and increased Sales and Marketing resources. In addition, we have pushed more marketing and sales decision making out to the regions where our teams are closer to customers and can react faster to new opportunities and changing market conditions. During the fourth quarter we have taken steps to make our product direction more market focused with substantial input coming from the local regions.

Other examples of our stepped up marketing include unveiling an exciting, new corporate web site, the launch of our retail initiative at an industry conference in Barcelona and a highly successfully forum which brought a number of leading U.S. customers together with industry analysts. We are well positioned to produce results from these and other marketing and sales initiatives," said Mr. Durlow.
