LONG BEACH, Calif., March 26, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UTi Worldwide Inc. (Nasdaq:UTIW) today reported financial results for its fiscal 2009 fourth quarter ended January 31, 2009. The company reported a loss in the 2009 fiscal fourth quarter due to goodwill impairment and other charges. Results in the fiscal 2009 fourth quarter were also adversely impacted by the significant and rapid decline in freight and logistics volumes and by the considerable weakening of most currencies against the U.S. dollar.

Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2009 vs. 2008 Results:



 * Revenues decreased 26 percent to $894.1 million from $1,202.2
   million.

 * Net revenues decreased 17 percent to $332.7 million from $400.8
   million.

 * Net loss was $89.8 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, compared to
   net income of $18.0 million, or $0.18 per diluted share.

 * Excluding goodwill impairment and other charges, adjusted net income
   in the 2009 fiscal fourth quarter was $15.3 million, or $0.15 per
   diluted share; by further excluding the impact from currency
   changes, adjusted earnings per share was $0.21 per diluted share.

 * Excluding after-tax restructuring charges of $6.2 million, adjusted
   net income in last year's fourth quarter was $24.2 million, or $0.24
   per diluted share.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided in the supplemental financial information attached to this release.

The company also reported that net cash provided by operating activities was $150.5 million in fiscal 2009 compared to $106.7 million in fiscal 2008. Net cash provided by operating activities in the fiscal 2009 fourth quarter was $77.6 million compared to $69.3 million in the fourth quarter last year.

Eric W. Kirchner, chief executive officer, said, "Our fourth quarter results were clearly impacted by the weakening economic environment and the slowing in global trade, which reduced volumes in forwarding and logistics - particularly in the month of January. Total operating costs (including purchased transportation costs) also decreased significantly in the quarter, demonstrating the flexibility of our business model and the impact of our earlier cost reduction measures. These mitigating factors did not fully offset the decrease in revenues, however, because of the speed of the volume contraction and the significant strengthening of the U.S. dollar against most currencies.

"While our operating expenses are at their lowest level in nearly two years, we have taken further steps since the beginning of the quarter to reduce costs in the current environment, without compromising our focus on providing the highest levels of client service. These actions include a salary freeze and a revision to our incentive structure for fiscal 2010, a reduction in headcount where necessary in accordance with volume declines and a further controlling of discretionary expenses such as travel. These actions are expected to reduce operating costs for fiscal 2010 by approximately $50 million from our fourth-quarter run rate. We continue to focus on our clients, deepening our existing relationships and winning new business, while remaining disciplined on cost control."

The decrease in revenues in the 2009 fiscal fourth quarter was due to the significant decline in forwarding and logistics volumes, as well as the exiting of businesses through the company's earlier cost reduction plan. The net revenue decline was somewhat mitigated by lower purchased transportation costs in the company's forwarding business. Currency fluctuations also had a significant adverse impact on revenues in the fiscal 2009 fourth quarter. On an organic, constant currency basis, net revenue was essentially flat in the 2009 fourth quarter compared to a year ago.

Goodwill impairment and other charges in the fiscal 2009 fourth quarter totaled $124.5 million on a pre-tax basis, $105.1 million after taxes, or $1.04 per diluted share, and included three components. First, the company performed an analysis of the value of its goodwill and other intangible assets as of January 31, 2009 based on the current environment and determined that an impairment of these assets occurred. The company recorded a non-cash charge for this impairment totaling $109.9 million on a pre-tax basis ($94.7 million after taxes, or $0.94 per diluted share). Second, the company recorded pre-tax restructuring costs of $2.9 million ($2.2 million after taxes, or $0.02 per diluted share) primarily related to its previously announced information technology restructuring plan. Third, pre-tax severance and related costs of $11.7 million ($8.2 million after taxes, or $0.08 per diluted share) were also recorded in the quarter. In the 2008 fiscal fourth quarter, the company recorded pre-tax restructuring charges of $8.4 million ($6.2 million after taxes, or $0.06 per diluted share) related to its earlier cost reduction plan. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided in the supplemental financial information attached to this release.

Operating expenses in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, excluding purchased transportation costs, were $430.5 million. Excluding goodwill impairment and other charges described above, adjusted operating expenses totaled $306.0 million, a decrease of 16 percent compared to adjusted operating expenses in the same period last year. The decrease primarily reflects lower costs associated with the declining volumes, as well as benefits achieved through cost reduction efforts.

The company reported an operating loss in the 2009 fourth quarter of $97.8 million. Excluding goodwill impairment and other charges described above, adjusted operating income in the fiscal 2009 fourth quarter was $26.7 million, which represented 8.0 percent of net revenues. This compares to adjusted operating income in the year-ago fourth quarter of $36.0 million, or 9.0 percent of net revenues.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release includes "non-GAAP financial measures" within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Commission rules. UTi believes that meaningful analysis of its financial performance requires an understanding of the factors underlying that performance and the company's judgments about the likelihood that particular factors will repeat. Short-term patterns and long-term trends may be obscured by the impact of certain items. For this reason, the company has referred to revenue and net revenue growth adjusted to exclude the impact of dispositions and acquisitions made since the beginning of the comparative period and the impact of currency fluctuations between comparable periods, to operating expenses adjusted to exclude purchased transportation costs, and by further excluding goodwill impairment and other charges, including restructuring, severance and other expenses, and to operating income (loss), net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share adjusted to exclude goodwill impairment and other charges, including restructuring, severance and other expenses. This information is among the information the company uses as a basis for evaluating company performance on a comparable basis over time, allocating resources and planning and forecasting of future periods. The company has also provided this information because such adjustments make performance information more comparable to prior disclosures for investors, and may enhance the ability of investors to analyze the company's performance. This information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the relevant measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
