PPID News Prescient Applied Intelligence Reports Second Quarter Results

WEST CHESTER, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 11, 2006--Prescient Applied Intelligence, Inc. (OTCBB:PPID), a leading provider of supply chain and advanced commerce solutions for retailers and suppliers, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006.

For the second quarter, the Company reported a net loss of $0.5 million, or $0.01 per share that includes compensation expense of $0.1 million as a result of the Company's adoption of SFAS No. 123R (accounting for stock-based employee compensation) in the first quarter of 2006. This compares to a net loss of $0.2 million, or $0.01 per share for the prior year quarter.

For the second quarter, total revenue was $2,379,000 down 4% from $2,472,000 in the prior year quarter. As compared to the prior year quarter, there was a 4% increase in subscription revenue to $1,384,000 and a 9% increase in maintenance revenue to $382,000, which was offset by a 24% decrease in license revenue to $217,000 and a 22% decrease in consulting services revenue to $395,000. The decrease in services revenue is related to one large implementation completed in the comparable period last year.

"Attitudes toward licensed software have shifted, and companies are looking at more cost-effective models," said Jane Hoffer, President and CEO, Prescient. "To address the accelerating changes in the market, Prescient will continue its expansion of subscription-based services, with an aggressive push to convert its supply chain business from license to subscription. These efforts are in addition to the numerous cost cutting measures taken since the end of the second quarter, which are anticipated to result in improved bottom-line performance in later periods."

Cash used in operations was $0.1 million during the second quarter as compared to $1.0 million used in the prior year quarter. Cash and cash equivalents were $587,260 as of June 30, 2006, down from $716,345 as of December 31, 2005.

Highlights for the second quarter include:

Existing client expansion:

In a scan based trading (SBT) expansion, a national grocery retailer who has been conducting SBT with Prescient since 2002 in two of its divisions, began an SBT expansion across five of its remaining 14 divisions.

A Northeast grocery retailer expanded its Prescient supply chain footprint in a second quarter deal that included: a move from limited use to an enterprise agreement; an upgrade to Prescient 7.0; and a hosting agreement to support its technology expansion.

Integration of Advanced Commerce and Supply Chain

During the second quarter, Prescient released Store Level Replenishment (SLR), an on demand solution designed for Prescient scan based trading (SBT) suppliers who deliver product directly to the store. This offering uses the data gathered at the point of sale as the data stream to feed its supply chain planning software. SLR integrates Prescient's advanced commerce and supply chain solutions, and helps Prescient's direct store delivery clients optimize store-level replenishment execution with the ultimate goal of having product on the shelf when it needs to be.

"By using scan sales data to drive forecasting and replenishment execution, retailers and suppliers are better able to reduce out of stocks and meet consumer demand," said Hoffer. "Prescient's Store Level Replenishment offering supports our vision of the retail supply chain - the Consumer ZOOM Demand Network(TM) -- by providing solutions that put the consumer at the center of the retail transaction."
