Oded Bashan, Chairman and CEO of OTI, said: "We have opened 2011 with slightly higher revenues than expected by the company. The company is financially stronger, which will help us cope better with the growing pipeline of opportunities. We are introducing new products to existing growing markets such as the COPNI; we are establishing strategic channel partnerships to bring the various products to market. We maintain the previously provided guidance of annual operating profitability for 2011 on a non-GAAP basis with revenues expected to be back-loaded and grow from 2010 revenues to $55-$60 million."

Discontinued Operations

During the fourth calendar quarter of 2009, the Company signed an agreement for the sale of the assets of OTI's subsidiary Millennium Card's Technology Ltd ("MCT") including the machinery and inlay production IP of OTI to SMARTRAC NV. Results for the discontinued operations have been separated and are presented separately.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, OTI uses non-GAAP measures of operating expenses, operating income, net income and earnings per share, which are adjustments from results based on GAAP to exclude non-cash equity-based compensation charges related to employees and non employees in accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 718 (originally issued as SFAS No. 123(R)) and ASC Subtopic 505-50 - Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees (formerly EITF 96-18); amortization of intangible assets; and results from discontinued operations. OTI management believes the non-GAAP financial information provided in this release provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and enhances the understanding of the Company's on-going economic performance. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP information in evaluating and operating the business and as such deemed it important to provide all this information to investors. Reconciliations between GAAP measures and non-GAAP measures are provided later in this press release.
