Sonic Solutions Reports Selected Preliminary Financial Results for Third Fiscal Quarter Ended December 31, 2007; Updates Guidance

NOVATO, Calif., Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sonic Solutions(R) today announced the following selected preliminary unaudited financial results for the third fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2007.

Selected Preliminary Financial Results

Net revenue for the quarter was $35.6 million. Cost of revenue, excluding any stock-based compensation costs, was $8.3 million. Included in cost of revenue is $1.2 million of expenses related to the amortization of acquired intangibles. Operating expenses, excluding stock-based compensation costs were as follows; marketing and sales expenses were $9.0 million, research and development expenses were $10.7 million, and general and administrative expenses were $4.9 million. Additionally, expenses associated with the recently completed stock option review were $3.0 million and we recorded a restructuring charge of $2.9 million associated with the closure of our Richmond Hill facility. Other income (net of other expenses) was $0.3 million. For the quarter ended December 31, 2007, the outstanding basic number of shares was approximately 26.3 million.

As of December 31, 2007, Sonic had cash, restricted cash, cash equivalents and short term investments of $65.2 million. Bank debt at December 31, 2007 was $20.0 million.

Guidance

For the fourth fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2008, the Company's management anticipates net revenue will be at least $34 million. Cost of revenue, as a percentage of net revenue and excluding expenses related to the amortization of intangibles and stock-based compensation, is estimated to be approximately 20%. Operating expenses, excluding stock-based compensation costs, one-time charges associated with Sonic's recently completed option review, and restructuring costs, are estimated to be approximately $24 million.

Options Review

Sonic's selected preliminary results and guidance may be adjusted as a result of the recently concluded restatement of its historical results for periods ending on or prior to March 31, 2007. As previously announced, on February 1, 2007, Sonic commenced a voluntary review of its historical and current stock option grant practices and related accounting. Sonic has completed its review, and on February 26, 2008, Sonic filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2006 and its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 (the "2007 Form 10-K"). The 2007 Form 10-K contains Sonic's restated historical results for specified periods ended on or prior to March 31, 2007 as well as detailed explanations of the voluntary review and restatement, including the conclusions of Sonic's Audit Committee. Sonic intends to file Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for each of the first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2007, the second fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2007 and the third fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2007 as soon as possible. Until such quarterly reports are filed, all results and guidance reported today should be considered preliminary because they are presented without taking into account (1) cash and non-cash charges for stock-based compensation expense similar to the charges that were made in connection with the recent restatement, (2) any other adjustments to either current or previously reported results that may be required in connection with the restatement, and (3) any other adjustments to either current or previously reported results that may be required related to the completion of our review. The non-GAAP information includes those measures that exclude stock-based compensation costs and/or other expenses that would otherwise be included in the applicable GAAP measures. Further, investors are cautioned that Sonic is unable to provide reconciliations to corresponding U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") measures for the non-GAAP information provided in the press release due to this recently concluded options practice and accounting review.

Continued Nasdaq Listing

On February 15, 2008, Sonic received, as expected, an additional notice of non-compliance from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The NASDAQ Stock Market (the "Staff") due to Sonic's failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2007 (the "Additional Staff Determination"), as required by NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14).

As previously announced, Sonic received prior notices of non-compliance from the Staff based upon Sonic's failure to timely file its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended December 31, 2006, June 30, 2007 and September 30, 2007 and its annual report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, each as required by NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) and for failure to solicit proxies and hold an annual meeting for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2006, on or before March 31, 2007 as required by NASDAQ Marketplace Rules 4350(e) and 4350(g), respectively. On January 8, 2008, Sonic received a letter from the Board of Directors of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (the "NASDAQ Board") informing Sonic that the NASDAQ Board had issued a decision granting Sonic until March 10, 2008 to file each of its delinquent filings. Sonic's securities will remain listed on The NASDAQ Global Select Market during this period. While Sonic is working diligently to complete all necessary filings and thereby demonstrate compliance with the applicable requirements for continued listing on The NASDAQ Global Select Market, there can be no assurance that Sonic's common stock will remain listed on The NASDAQ Global Select Market beyond the March 10, 2008 deadline established by the NASDAQ Board or that NASDAQ will grant Sonic a further extension if needed.

Sonic will conduct a conference call at 1:30 p.m. PST, or 4:30 p.m. EST, today to discuss its preliminary financial results for the third quarter ended December 31, 2007.

Autodesk Reports Record Revenue of $599 MillionReaffirms Fiscal 2009 Revenue Guidance

SAN RAFAEL, Calif., Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Autodesk, Inc. today reported record revenue of $599 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008, an increase of 20 percent over the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007. Fourth quarter net income was $96 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, on a GAAP basis and $124 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, on a non- GAAP basis. Net income in the fourth quarter of the prior year was $96 million, or $0.40 per diluted share on a GAAP basis, and $113 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, on a non-GAAP basis. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP results is provided at the end of this press release.

"Autodesk delivered another quarter of solid revenue results, capping another record year," said Carl Bass, Autodesk president and CEO. "Our results demonstrate the strength and stability our business model provides. Because our geographic balance and customer and industry diversification help insulate Autodesk from changes in any one particular market, we remain optimistic about the coming year."

Operational Highlights

Autodesk's performance in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 was driven by strong growth in revenue generated in international geographies, revenue from new seats as well as continued customer migration from 2D to 3D design solutions, offset by slower than expected growth in the Americas.

Compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, revenue in EMEA increased 38 percent to $262 million. Revenue in Asia Pacific increased 24 percent year-over-year to $131 million. Revenue from the emerging economies in Asia Pacific, EMEA and Latin America increased 52 percent and were 19 percent of total revenue. Strong growth in these international geographies was offset by revenue growth in the Americas of 2 percent over the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007.

Combined revenue from the Company's model-based 3D products -- Inventor, Revit, Civil 3D and NavisWorks software -- increased 21 percent over the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 to $146 million. Autodesk shipped approximately 21,000 commercial seats of Revit and NavisWorks, over 17,000 commercial seats of Inventor and over 7,500 commercial seats of Civil 3D.

Revenue from all new commercial seats increased by 30 percent compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007.

Fiscal 2008 Highlights

For fiscal 2008, revenue was a record $2.172 billion, an increase of 18 percent compared to fiscal 2007. Fiscal 2008 net income was $356 million, or $1.47 per diluted share, on a GAAP basis and $456 million, or $1.88 per diluted share, on a non-GAAP basis. Net income in fiscal 2007 was $290 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, on a GAAP basis and $375 million, or $1.53 per diluted share, on a non-GAAP basis.

Business Outlook

The following statements are forward-looking statements which are based on current expectations and which involve risks and uncertainties some of which are set forth below.

First Quarter Fiscal 2009

Net revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 is expected to be in the range of $575 million and $585 million. However, the company is lowering its previous estimate of earnings per diluted share. GAAP earnings per diluted share are expected to be in the range of $0.35 and $0.37. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share are expected to be in the range of $0.46 and $0.48 and exclude $0.08 related to stock-based compensation expense and $0.03 for the amortization of acquisition related intangibles and the write off of acquired IPR&D.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2009

Net revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 is expected to be about $590 million. GAAP earnings per diluted share are expected to be about $0.40. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share are expected to be about $0.50 and exclude $0.06 related to stock-based compensation expense and $0.04 for the amortization of acquisition related intangibles and the write off of acquired IPR&D.

Full Year Fiscal 2009

For fiscal year 2009, the Company is maintaining its previously provided revenue guidance range of $2.425 billion and $2.475 billion. However, the company is lowering its previous estimate of earnings per diluted share. Full year GAAP earnings per diluted share are expected to be in the range of $1.75 and $1.85. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share are expected to be in the range of $2.15 and $2.25 and exclude $0.28 related to stock-based compensation expense and $0.12 for the amortization of acquisition related intangibles and the write off of acquired IPR&D.

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements in the paragraphs under "Business Outlook" above, statements regarding anticipated market trends and other statements regarding our expected performance and results. Other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include the following: general market and business conditions, our performance in particular geographies, including emerging economies, difficulties encountered in integrating new or acquired businesses and technologies, fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, unexpected fluctuations in our tax rate, the timing and degree of expected investments in growth opportunities, slowing momentum in maintenance or subscription revenues, failure to achieve sufficient sell-through and efficiencies in our channels for new or existing products, pricing pressure, failure to achieve continued cost reductions and productivity increases, failure to achieve continued migration from 2D products to 3D products, changes in the timing of product releases and retirements, failure of key new applications to achieve anticipated levels of customer acceptance, failure to achieve continued success in technology advancements, the financial and business condition of our reseller and distribution channels, interruptions or terminations in the business of the Company's consultants or third party developers, and unanticipated impact of accounting for technology acquisitions.

Reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures (In millions, except per share data) To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, Autodesk provides investors with certain non-GAAP measures including non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, non-GAAP cost of license and other revenues, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP interest and other income, net and non-GAAP provision for income taxes. These non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses, including stock-based compensation expense, employee tax reimbursements related to our stock option review, litigation expenses, in-process research and development expenses, restructuring expenses, amortization of purchased intangibles, investment impairment and income tax expenses. See our reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to non- GAAP financial measures herein. We believe these exclusions are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial performance and also our prospects for the future, as well as to facilitate comparisons with our historical operating results. These adjustments to our GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of Autodesk's underlying operational results and trends and our marketplace performance. For example, the non-GAAP results are an indication of our baseline performance before gains, losses or other charges that are considered by management to be outside our core operating results. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future periods. There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Investors should review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables accompanying this press release. The following table shows Autodesk's non-GAAP results reconciled to GAAP results included in this release.

These non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses, including stock-based compensation expense, employee tax reimbursements related to our stock option review, litigation expenses, in-process research and development expenses, restructuring expenses, amortization of purchased intangibles, investment impairment and income tax expenses. See our reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures herein. We believe these exclusions are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial performance and also our prospects for the future, as well as to facilitate comparisons with our historical operating results. These adjustments to our GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of Autodesk's underlying operational results and trends and our marketplace performance. For example, the non-GAAP results are an indication of our baseline performance before gains, losses or other charges that are considered by management to be outside our core operating results. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future periods. There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Investors should review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Belden Networking Solution Exceeds the Newly Published Category 6A StandardBelden System 10GX(R) Stands the Test of Time

RICHMOND, Ind., Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Belden is pleased to confirm that its System 10GX UTP cabling solution, first introduced in January 2005, meets and exceeds all the performance requirements of the newly ratified TIA Category 6A standard (ANSI/TIA/EIA 568B.2-10). This new cabling standard defines the requirements of four-pair balanced copper cabling to support 10G transmission for distances up to 100 meters. The Belden System 10GX not only meets and exceeds all Category 6A requirements but delivers guaranteed performance up to 625 MHz, 125 MHz beyond the standard.

"Belden innovated with four totally new enabling technologies to achieve these results," said Paul Kish, Director Cabling Systems and Standards, Belden. The RoundFlex(TM) Cable technology features an internal cross-web construction that keeps Alien Crosstalk at an exceptionally low level while attaining a smaller cable diameter. The MatriX IDC(TM) Module technology effectively eliminates Alien Crosstalk coupling between modular jacks. The FlexPoint(TM) PCB Module technology positions the compensation circuitry directly at the plug's point of contact thus reducing any unwanted noise. The X-Bar(TM) Module termination technology assures accurate module/cable termination and reduces installation variables.

"The combination of all these enabling technologies ensures that our System 10GX provides guaranteed performance up to 625 MHz, which is 25% greater than the TIA Category 6A standard. These performance benefits apply for all channel configurations up to 100 meters and down to as little as 5 meters, an unequalled feat in the industry," said Kish. "This is an important consideration for new installations in Data Centers allowing greater flexibility in cabling layouts."

The TIA Category 6A standard (TIA 568 B.2-10) was ratified by TIA TR 42 engineering committee on February 8, 2008. It represents the most advanced set of network cabling requirements specified up to 500 MHz. Category 6A is fully backward compatible with all the previous categories, including Category 6, Category 5e and Category 5.

"The finalization of the TIA Category 6A cabling standard and the recent 10GBASE-T equipment announcements should accelerate the deployment of 10G-over-copper network solutions throughout the enterprise," said Matt Schaal, Vice President, Marketing and R&D, Belden. "Belden is committed to bring products and solutions beyond the minimum limits determined by cabling standards. By working closely with our customers and understanding their applications and network environments, Belden can deliver solutions such as the System 10GX that help our customers' networks operate more efficiently."

eResearchTechnology Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2007 ResultsQ4 2007 Net Revenues - $28.9 million vs. $19.9 million in Q4 2006 - a 45% increaseQ4 2007 Diluted Net Income per Share - $0.10 vs. $0.04 in Q4 2006Q4 2007 New Bookings Increase to $39.2 million

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- eResearchTechnology, Inc. (eRT), , a leading provider of centralized ECG, eClinical technology, ePRO and other services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and related industries, announced today results for the fourth quarter of 2007 and the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2007.

On November 28, 2007, the Company acquired Covance Cardiac Safety Services, Inc. (CCSS) and entered into a ten-year exclusive marketing agreement with Covance, Inc. Because there is only one month of impact on its results for 2007, the Company reported key statistics with and without the CCSS acquisition. Unless otherwise noted, all growth numbers refer to changes from the same period a year ago.

Highlights of the fourth quarter and the year were: -- Record quarterly net revenue of $28.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2007 (including $1.5 million from the CCSS transaction) a 45.1% increase from the prior year's quarter. Net revenues for the full year 2007 were $98.7 million. -- Gross margin percentage increased to 52.6% which would have been higher by 2.5% had we excluded the CCSS acquisition (or 55.1%); for the full year 2007, the gross margin percentage was 50.7%. -- Pre-tax margin percentage increased to 27.8% which would have been higher by 3.3% had we excluded the CCSS acquisition (or 31.1%); for the full year 2007, the pre-tax margin percentage was 24.8%. -- Diluted net income per share increased to $0.10, which would have been $0.01 higher had we excluded the CCSS acquisition (or $0.11); for the full year 2007, diluted net income per share was $0.29. -- New bookings increased to $39.2 million, an increase of 42.5%; for 2007 new bookings were a record $138.6 million. -- Backlog increased to $140.2 million as of December 31, 2007 (including the CCSS acquisition), an increase of 45.4% from the prior year.

The Company reported net income of $5.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2007, a 129.9% increase from $2.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. Diluted net income per share was $0.10 in the fourth quarter of 2007 (which was negatively affected by the CCSS transaction by $0.01), compared to $0.04 in the fourth quarter of 2006.

"We feel that the fourth quarter was a very successful one -- we recorded the highest level of net revenues in eRT's history, increased net income by 129.9%, recorded a near record level of new bookings, processed the highest number of ECG transactions in eRT's history and completed the acquisition of CCSS," said Dr. Michael McKelvey, President and CEO of eRT. "For the year, we grew net revenues by 14.3% and the bottom line by 83.5%, demonstrating the leverage of our operating model. We also recorded the highest level of new bookings in eRT's history. The CCSS integration is moving along as planned and will be an important factor in our long-term growth."

For the full year ended December 31, 2007, the Company reported net revenues of $98.7 million compared to $86.4 million for the full year ended December 31, 2006, a 14.3% increase. The Company's gross margin percentage for 2007 was 50.7% compared to 48.4% for 2006. Pre-tax income percentage for 2007 was 24.8% compared to 15.3% for 2006. The Company reported net income of $15.3 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for 2007 compared to net income of $8.3 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, for 2006, an 83.5% increase. The Company's effective tax rate was 37.6% for 2007 compared to 37.1% for 2006.

Cash flow from operations for 2007 was $36.0 million, up from $16.3 million in 2006. After completing the CCSS transaction of $35.8 million, eRT ended the year with $46.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments.

Commenting on the year as a whole, Dr. McKelvey said "Our success in 2007 gives us a strong basis for growth in 2008 and beyond. We enter 2008 with a healthy backlog, a good trajectory of revenue growth, enhanced scale and increased market share from our recent acquisition, a strong pipeline of bookings opportunities and a state-of-the-art new workflow system (EXPeRT(R) 2) that provides us with a scalable platform for operational excellence. The clinical trials industry continues to focus on the importance of cardiac safety and running Thorough QTc trials. In addition, we also invested in our eClinical line of business and launched a new line of business -- electronic patient reported outcomes (ePRO)." As for 2008, Dr. Michael McKelvey concluded: "The strong momentum that we developed throughout 2007, along with a healthy overall business environment for cardiac safety and the need for technology-based solutions for clinical trials, gives us confidence that we will have a successful 2008."

2008 Guidance

The Company issued guidance for the first quarter of 2008. eRT anticipates net revenues of between $31.0 million and $33.0 million and net income per diluted share of $0.08 to $0.10 for the first quarter ending March 31, 2008. For the full year ending December 31, 2008, management anticipates net revenues of between $130 million and $137 million. Management anticipates earnings per diluted share of between $0.42 and $0.46 for the full year ending December 31, 2008. This guidance includes the costs associated with the closing of the Reno facility and other integration costs of CCSS. Costs associated with this will be more heavily skewed to the first three quarters of the year. Revenue and gross margin for the first three quarters will also include a higher percentage of lower margin backlog revenue then in the later part of the year.

Maxwell Technologies Reports 4th Quarter and Fiscal Year '07 Financial ResultsTop Line Increases 19% Quarter-to-Quarter; Q4 Gross Margin Improves to 29%CONFERENCE CALL & WEBCAST AT 5 P.M. (EST) TODAY, FEBRUARY 26, 2008 - DETAILS BELOW

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Maxwell Technologies, Inc. today reported a net loss of $1.1 million or $0.04 per share, on revenue of $17.0 million for its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2007, compared with net income of $633,000, or $0.03 per share, on revenue of $15.1 million for the same period in 2006. The year-to-year net loss/net income comparison is affected by a negative swing of approximately $2.7 million, or $0.14 per share, in the change in fair value of conversion features of convertible debentures issued in 2005.

Higher sales across all of the company's product lines drove a 19 percent quarter-to-quarter increase in total revenue, from $14.2 million in the third quarter ended September 30, 2007, to $17.0 million in Q407. BOOSTCAP(R) ultracapacitor revenue increased by 7 percent, quarter-to-quarter, from $5.0 million in Q307 to $5.3 million in Q407.

"Heavy transportation, wind energy, telecommunications and other industrial applications generated the majority of our ultracapacitor sales in 2007," said David Schramm, Maxwell's president and chief executive officer. "We expect ongoing production ramps for those applications and sales growth for our high voltage and microelectronics products to drive year-over-year revenue growth and margin improvement in 2008, and contribute to a significantly stronger performance in the current first quarter, compared with the seasonal weakness we have experienced in the past couple of years. As we announced last month, we expect the first meaningful revenue contribution from high-volume automotive applications now in development to begin in the second half of 2009."

Other significant recent developments include: -- Continental AG's selection of BOOSTCAP ultracapacitors as the energy storage element of a "boardnet" electrical system stabilization module that Continental is designing for a major automaker for series production in the 2010 model year. -- Announcement of an energy storage product development and outsource ultracapacitor manufacturing alliance with Tianjin Lishen Battery Joint-Stock Co., Ltd., China's largest producer of lithium ion batteries. -- Certification of Maxwell's San Diego ultracapacitor production facility to the rigorous, auto industry-specific, International Organization for Standardization (ISO) TS 16949 standard, confirming the company's competence as a supplier to the large and strategically important automotive industry.

"Ultracapacitor-based energy storage and power delivery solutions are demonstrating life-of-the-application reliability and contributing to substantial energy efficiency improvements in a wide range of devices and systems that generate or consume electrical energy," Schramm said. "Ongoing product design and material science advancements and the offshore assembly operation we brought on line in 2007 are contributing to reduced manufacturing cost, which is enabling us to improve margins and compete more aggressively with other energy storage alternatives. We have also curtailed engineering-intensive, low-volume custom design activity and are streamlining the BOOSTCAP product line to concentrate on fewer, higher-volume, standard products to further improve efficiency and inventory management."

Gross margin increased, quarter-to-quarter, from 24 percent in Q307 to 29 percent in Q407, reflecting more favorable revenue mix and continuing progress in reducing ultracapacitor manufacturing costs. Cash, restricted cash and investments in marketable securities totaled $30.2 million as of December 31, 2007, compared with $17.7 million as of September 30, 2007, augmented by the sale of approximately 1.5 million shares of common stock in October 2007, which produced net proceeds of approximately $15.3 million after expenses and fees. Complete financial statements will be available with the filing of the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities & Exchange Commission within the next several days.

Management will conduct a conference call and simultaneous webcast to discuss fourth quarter and fiscal year 2007 financial results and the outlook for 2008 at 5 p.m. (EST) today. The call may be accessed by dialing toll-free, (800) 895-0231 from the U.S. and Canada, or (785) 424-1054 for international callers.

Smart Energy Solutions Launches New Product for Heavy Duty Trucks, Buses and RVsTargeted at Medium and Heavy Duty Fleet, Beverage, Courier, Construction, Bus and RV Markets

POMPTON PLAINS, N.J., Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Smart Energy Solutions, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: SMGY) , developer and manufacturer of the innovative Battery Brain(TM) electronic controller for vehicle and marine batteries has developed and is launching a new high capacity Battery Brain(TM) for the truck and bus markets. The Company worked with several major truck and bus fleet maintenance managers to develop and test this product.

There are over 8,000,000 commercial trucks and buses in the United States with the top 10 truck fleets having over 350,000 vehicles. Battery failure is a major concern for all fleet managers and the new Heavy Duty Battery Brain(TM) product is available for 12-volt and 24-volt systems and will withstand starter battery current draws of up to 2,000 amps. Several major fleets in both the United States and Mexico through Company approved distributors have purchased our initial production run and placed orders for the new model currently in production.

"After extensive testing and customer input, Smart Energy Solutions is pleased to introduce this new model of Battery Brain(TM) for all vehicles that have high amperage draws, diesel engines and/or multi-battery configurations," stated Pete Mateja, CEO of Smart Energy Solutions. "This new product can pay for itself in less than six months by reducing battery related service calls and delaying battery replacements due to deep cycling when batteries run down. Battery Brain(TM) can eliminate valuable lost time, and lost revenues, by reducing the number of vehicles stranded due to a dead battery. The product also provides a warning when batteries are reaching the end of their life cycle so that battery replacement can be scheduled. In addition, to encourage use of the new product, the Company has initiated a National Introduction/Installation Program available for major commercial fleets, motor carriers and bus companies."

"The Heavy Duty Battery Brain(TM) is ideal for fleets including the beverage and courier markets where trucks are turned on and off frequently daily as well as the construction and logging markets where vehicles are known to stand idle for prolonged periods of time. In addition, the product is ideally suited for bus and RV motorhomes which may not be frequently used and have high electrical current draws and demands."

Battery Brain(TM) is Smart Energy's flagship technology that constantly monitors electrical discharge of the battery for nearly all kinds of vehicles including automobiles, SUVs/trucks, medium and heavy duty trucks, military, buses, RVs, boats, commercial vehicles and personal watercraft. Should Battery Brain(TM) detect that the battery is losing the required charge needed to start the vehicle's engine, the device automatically disconnects the battery to preserve its starting power. In addition, Battery Brain(TM) offers a built- in anti-theft feature on some products and will extend the life of the battery.

About Smart Energy Solutions

Smart Energy Solutions, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: SMGY) is the sole owner of the Battery Brain line of vehicle accessory products. The company is headquartered in Pompton Plains, NJ, with operations in, Zhuhai, China, Petach Tikva, Israel and Pompton Plains, NJ. Visit http://www.smgy.net/.

DATATRAK International Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results for 2007

CLEVELAND, Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- DATATRAK International, Inc. , a technology and services company focused on global eClinical solutions for the clinical trials industry, today reported its operating results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2007.

For the three months ended December 31, 2007, revenue decreased approximately 54% to $1,839,000 and the Company reported a net loss of $(2,486,000), or $(0.18) per share on both a basic and diluted basis. These results compared with revenue of $3,986,000 and a net loss of $(2,382,000) or $(0.21) per share on both a basic and diluted basis in the fourth quarter of 2006. The 2006 fourth quarter period included income tax expense of $976,000 whereas the 2007 fourth quarter period included a tax benefit of $(140,000).

For the year ended December 31, 2007, DATATRAK's revenue decreased approximately 40% to $10,562,000, and a net loss of $(10,854,000), or $(0.82) per share on both a basic and diluted basis, was recorded for the period. The Company reported revenue of $17,690,000 and a net loss of $(4,490,000), or $(0.40) per share on both a basic and diluted basis in the previous year.

DATATRAK recorded severance charges totaling $192,000 in the fourth quarter of 2007 associated with the reduction of 21 employees. The employee reductions are expected to decrease annual direct costs by approximately $800,000 and annual SG&A expenses by approximately $867,000, for a total cost reduction of approximately $1,667,000 per year. Coupled with the 28 employee reductions from earlier in the year, annual direct costs are expected to decrease by approximately $1,595,000 and annual SG&A expenses are expected to decrease by approximately $2,262,000 in future years.

The gross profit margin for the fourth quarter was 48% compared to 66% the same period a year ago. The decline in gross profit margin continues to be the result of the significant decrease in revenue partially offset by a 28% reduction in direct costs.

DATATRAK's backlog at December 31, 2007 was $13.0 million and backlog currently stands at approximately $12.6 million. This compares to a backlog of $12.2 million at December 31, 2006. Backlog is defined as the remaining value of signed contracts or authorization letters to commence services. The Company does not include in its backlog potential contracts or authorization letters that have passed the verbal stage, but have not been signed. All contracts are subject to possible delays or cancellation or can change in scope in a positive or negative direction. Therefore, current backlog is not necessarily indicative of the Company's future quarterly or annual revenue. Historically, backlog has been a poor predictor of the Company's short-term revenue.

"The year of 2007 proved to be a challenging one for DATATRAK, as the clinical trials market was not as responsive or timely to our offerings as we had anticipated, despite the fact that the completeness and functionality of our technology platform has been recognized by groups such as Forrester, Gartner, NTT DATA and multiple experienced clients," stated Dr. Jeffrey A. Green, President and Chief Executive Officer of DATATRAK International, Inc. "Despite the delays with the traction of our platform in the marketplace, signs abound that this industry will eventually gravitate to a broad 'eClinical' set of offerings and will even move beyond that with linkages to patient health information systems and the establishment of longitudinal registry information capabilities. DATATRAK possesses the most seamless capabilities available in this market, and when coupled with our broad set of applications, we remain confident that we will be able to capitalize on these advantages as the market and the regulatory bodies mature in this direction. As such, we have remained committed to the advancement of our eClinical product suite so that we are well positioned for these developing opportunities and just a few weeks ago, announced our developmental progress with the release of Version 5.0."

Green continued, "In addition to advancing the capabilities of our eClinical product suite, we undertook a number of cost cutting initiatives in 2007, identified weaknesses within our sales and marketing efforts and made the necessary changes in people and procedures. As a result of these and other actions, we are seeing early signs of a building sales momentum and we look forward to returning the Company to a positive sales growth trend during 2008. During the fourth quarter of 2007 we signed contracts for approximately $4.1 million of new business. This represented one of the strongest quarters in our Company's history, a testimony that the steps we put into place last year with the reorganization of our sales and marketing efforts are yielding positive results. While challenges and uncertainties still confront us, these recent wins give us encouragement about our future potential and we are striving to return to a cash flow positive environment with the associated improvements in gross margins as quickly as possible."

"We concluded 2007 on an especially strong note with the December announcement of a significant multi-year Enterprise Subscription License relationship with NTT DATA of Japan. The drawing power and the name recognition associated with NTT DATA in Japan were clearly evident at a recent trade show in Tokyo, where at times potential clients were 4-5 rows deep within our booth.

Synopsys and SMIC Deliver Enhanced 90-Nanometer Reference Flow to Reduce IC Design and Test CostsLatest Design Flow Streamlines Development and Testing of Low Power Systems-on-a-Chip

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. and SHANGHAI, China, Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Synopsys, Inc. , a world leader in software and IP for semiconductor design and manufacturing, and Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC) , one of the leading semiconductor foundries in the world, today announced the release of an enhanced 90-nanometer (nm) hierarchical, multi-voltage RTL-to-GDSII reference design flow that benefits from advanced synthesis, design-for-test (DFT) and design-for-manufacturing (DFM) capabilities. Key features of the reference flow include topographical synthesis in the Design Compiler(TM) Ultra product, scan compression in the DFT MAX product and critical area analysis in the IC Compiler place-and-route product. Together these capabilities help to lower the cost of implementing and testing systems-on-a-chip (SoCs).

"We have worked closely with Synopsys to enhance our 90-nanometer reference flow. The latest iteration builds upon the previous flow's low power consumption, DFT and DFM capabilities," said Paul Ouyang, Senior Fellow of Marketing & Sales at SMIC. "The new flow reduces synthesis iterations and lowers test costs, providing our customers a path to significant cost savings and lower design risk."

The enhanced reference design flow 3.2, based on SMIC's 90-nm low-leakage process and Synopsys' Pilot Design Environment, has been validated on Synopsys' Galaxy(TM) Design Platform with the ARM(R) low power design kit developed for SMIC's 90-nm process. The reference flow uses Design Compiler Ultra topographical technology to accurately predict post-layout timing, power and area during synthesis, thereby reducing costly design iterations between synthesis and layout. Advanced capabilities for low power design include insertion and placement optimization of isolation cells, creation of multiple voltage areas and power meshes, and synthesis of multiple voltage-aware clock trees. To help reduce standby leakage, the design flow utilizes power gating techniques that shut off areas of the chip when they are not needed for a function. DFT MAX synthesizes scan compression circuits that substantially lower costs by decreasing the amount of data and time required for manufacturing test. The tool reduces the number of scan chain connections that cross voltage domains, lowering the area impact of DFT by reducing the number of required level shifters and isolation cells. Other DFM capabilities in the flow include via optimization and wire spreading and antenna fixing with Hercules runset."

"Our continued collaboration with SMIC allows us to work together to enhance the reference flow to meet our customers' changing needs in design-for-test, design-for-manufacturing and power management," said Rich Goldman, vice president of Strategic Market Development at Synopsys. "Our work with SMIC enables us to provide the right advanced tools and techniques required by our joint customers to deliver first-pass silicon success."

Nuvation Introduces Four Video Reference Designs Based on Texas Instruments' DaVinci(TM) TechnologyNew reference designs accelerate time-to-market for video security, video conferencing, and broadcast video applications.

DALLAS, Feb. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Today at the worldwide Texas Instruments Developer Conference (TIDC), Nuvation, a leading Electronics Design Services firm, is introducing four reference designs based on TI's DaVinci(TM) technology. The reference designs are:

-- an IP Camera with Power-over-Ethernet (IPCam PoE), -- an Intelligent Video Server (IVS), -- a video security Multichannel Video Front-End (McVFE), and -- an ultra-high performance, Scalable Video Platform (SVP).

Engineering evaluation units are available for purchase and the reference design source files can be licensed from Nuvation. Nuvation also offers project-based and China Offshore Development Center (CODC) electronic design services.

Nuvation's new IP Camera 'PoE' reference design joins Nuvation's IP Cam 'Mini' reference design introduced at last year's TIDC, with the PoE version sporting a new form factor with enhanced features, COGS and thermal characteristics. Nuvation's IP Camera PoE utilizes TI's TPS23750, a PoE 802.3af-compliant PD controller with integrated DC/DC converter. With the optional PoE board installed, power can be transmitted with the data over Ethernet and thus requires no external power adapter to be connected to the IP Camera. Nuvation's IP Camera reference designs also incorporate Pixim's Orca imaging chipset with revolutionary Digital Pixel System(R) (DPS) technology which improves image quality and color accuracy, critical for positive subject identification in video surveillance applications.

Nuvation's Intelligent Video Server (IVS) is a reference design for a 1-channel audio/video streamer which can adapt a standard CCTV analog camera into an Internet Protocol (IP) streamer. PoE is also incorporated in the IVS reference design.

The IP Camera and IVS reference designs compress real-time, full-color 720x480 (D1) video over Ethernet at up to 30 frames per second as well as optional video analytics intelligence. The reference designs utilize TI's TMS320DM644x processor which is a highly integrated, DSP-based system-on-chip (SoC) featuring an ARM926 processor in addition to the TMS320C64x+(TM) DSP core. They support configurable software implementations from TI and third parties including H.264, MPEG-4/H.263, MPEG-2, MJPEG, G.711, and video analytics. The IP Camera and IVS reference designs incorporate an embedded Real-Time Linux Operating System as well.

Nuvation's new Multichannel Video Front End (McVFE) reference design is geared for video security OEMs that need to merge multiple video streams for encoding in TI DaVinci(TM) devices. The McVFE reference design supports up to 16 analog video channel inputs and utilizes four TVP5154 quad-channel low power video decoders with independent scalers and a low-cost Xilinx Spartan-3A FPGA streaming to a DM6467 DVEVM based on DaVinci technology. Nuvation is demonstrating McVFE here at TIDC with full release scheduled for Q2 '08.

Nuvation is also unveiling its new Scalable Video Platform (SVP) reference design, an advanced video development platform for OEMs working with arrays of TI DaVinci DSPs and/or DSP-FPGA co-processing architectures. Nuvation's SVP features four (4) TI TMS320DM6467 DaVinci digital media processors, a TMS320DM648 DaVinci digital media processor, an expandable Xilinx Virtex-5 LXT FPGA socket, and other advanced video functionality. SVP is being demonstrated here at TIDC running a concurrent HD MPEG-2 decode and MPEG-2 to H.264 transcode. General release is targeted for Q2 '08.

"We are extremely impressed with the features and performance of TI's DaVinci technology," said Chris Hallahan, Nuvation's VP of sales and marketing. "The market has been embracing TI's DaVinci platform and is always seeking greater time-to-market acceleration. Leveraging our family of reference designs, we can enable OEMs to reach volume production release in a few months rather than typical new product development cycles of 18 months or more."

Reference designs can be licensed by OEMs for their in-house engineering departments to gain a head-start on product development. As applicable to the design, Nuvation licensee packages can include engineering specification documents, DSP and MCU executables and firmware source code, device drivers, FPGA netlists and source code, schematics, layout databases, gerbers, bills of material, mechanical CAD files, test utilities, manufacturing diagrams, and other design source files. Engineering evaluation units are available for purchase from Nuvation for OEMs to test applications and to validate design approaches. Nuvation is also recognized as a leading Electronics Design Services firm for custom product development.

Nuvation's IP Camera mini, IP Camera PoE, and Intelligent Video Server reference designs are available for purchase and license today. McVFE and SVP are being demonstrated today and will release in Q2 '08. Contact sales@nuvation.com for more information.

ORLANDO, Fla., Feb. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- As revenue cycle management continues to be a pain point for the healthcare industry, many institutions turned to innovative solutions from Siemens (http://www.usa.siemens.com/healthcareit) to help support their revenue cycle management initiatives.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20070904/SIEMENSLOGO )

Christiana Care Health System (http://www.christianacare.org/), a 1,000-bed regional healthcare system located in Wilmington, Del., recently signed a deal with Siemens for Soarian(R) Financials, Soarian Scheduling, Enterprise Document Management (EDM) and Siemens Decision Support Solutions. One of the largest healthcare providers in the mid-Atlantic region, Christiana Care recognized an opportunity to improve its revenue cycle management initiatives with the help of innovative information technology solutions and felt Soarian was the best fit for its organization.

"As we looked to replace our legacy hospital-based and ambulatory registration, scheduling, and billing systems, our requirements focused on an enterprise-class system, built on next-generation architecture, that could help us streamline and integrate our processes and information flow much better and differently than today," explained Steve Hess, vice president and chief information officer, Christiana Care. "With Soarian, we believe we have the solution that will enable the operations within Christiana Care and patient access with Christiana Care to be more efficient and effective for all."

Christiana Care Chief Financial Officer Tom Corrigan agreed, stating, "After an exhaustive review of vendor applications that support registration, scheduling, and billing processes, we firmly believe that Siemens Soarian offers the greatest opportunity for Christiana Care to successfully transform our business operations."

Siemens also closed deals with other healthcare organizations throughout the U.S. in recent months including:

-- BryanLGH Health System, a 600-bed, not-for-profit, locally owned healthcare organization with three acute care facilities, several outpatient clinics, a college of Health Sciences and a state-of-the-art health and wellness facility located in Lincoln, Neb., signed with Siemens for Soarian Financials and Soarian Clinicals; -- Riverside County Regional Medical Center, a 439-bed state-of-the-art tertiary care and level II adult and pediatric facility located in Moreno Valley, Calif., signed with Siemens for Soarian Financials, Soarian Scheduling, Soarian Health Information Management (HIM) and EDM, and Siemens Decision Support Solutions; -- Hamilton Medical Center, a 280-bed hospital located in Dalton, Ga. and flagship affiliate of Hamilton Health Care System, signed with Siemens for Soarian Financials and Soarian Scheduling; -- Wentworth-Douglass Hospital, a 178-bed, acute care hospital located in Dover, N.H., signed with Siemens for Soarian Financials, Soarian Scheduling, Soarian HIM and EDM, and Soarian Clinicals.

"The momentum we've seen on the revenue cycle management side demonstrates the increasing need for innovative solutions that support the creation of optimized processes and increased efficiency," stated Janet Dillione, CEO, Health Services, Siemens Medical Solutions. "Soarian helps to streamline access to financial information across the enterprise, allowing for stronger collaboration among care givers and staff members, and more efficient and informed decision making."

This week at the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) 2008 Annual Conference and Exhibition in Orlando, Siemens (Booth #3763) is showcasing the following solutions from its revenue cycle management portfolio:

-- Soarian Financials is a next-generation IT solution designed to streamline revenue-cycle management by helping manage costs through a patient-centric, workflow-driven approach. Soarian Financials embeds a contract engine and an enterprise-wide master person index (EMPI) into a comprehensive revenue-cycle solution. By delegating the right work, to the right person, at the right time and place, Soarian Financials can help healthcare organizations refine the registration process, reduce delays and denials, integrate payer rules and edits up front, increase point-of-service collections, generate accurate claims, reduce dependencies on third parties, and simplify patient billing. -- Soarian HIM provides immediate access to a complete, online medical record. Patient data is streamlined, virtual, and paperless, so information is available at the point of need. The solution consolidates traditionally separate HIM applications into one environment-online record, deficiency analysis, chart completion, coding management, HIPAA disclosures, and information releases-all combined into a single infrastructure for storage. -- Soarian Scheduling is an enterprise-wide patient scheduling and resource management solution that optimizes the delivery of care services for each individual patient. The solution seamlessly integrates scheduling and registration workflows to help increase user productivity and significantly reduce patient wait times. -- Siemens Decision Support Solutions is a suite of integrated applications that support team-based decision-making on the healthcare management team. The solution's need-specific modules offer healthcare organizations timely views of performance against strategic metrics and provide access to clinical and financial reports and analyses to help manage costs, increase productivity and improve quality of care. -- MedSeries4(R) Revenue Cycle Management Solutions, designed specifically for community hospital organizations, provide a comprehensive, proactive set of solutions that can help healthcare organizations reduce account cycle time and the financial loss associated with denials, underpayments, and bad debt.

Anacomp Marks 40th Birthday With New, 'One Anacomp' Branding StrategyCompany Unveils New Logo, Website and Messaging that Strengthens Market Position, Supports Growth Plans and Leverages Rich Assets

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Anacomp(R) Inc., a leading business process solutions company, today unveiled a new, "One Anacomp" branding platform and strategy to the marketplace -- one that unites and rationalizes its solutions and services assets under a single branded entity, and adds higher-value, transaction-oriented document capture and business process management (BPM) solutions on top of its legacy hosted image repository. The announcement is timed with the company's 40th birthday, which it celebrates this year.

New branding assets include a new corporate logo which includes an attached tagline of, "Powered by technology. Perfected by people." to reflect Anacomp's world-class docHarbor(R) on-demand business process platform which is built on the company's global data centers, proven processes and robust security and availability features, as well as Anacomp's renowned legacy of dedicated personal service to its loyal customer base. The company has also launched a completely redesigned website at http://www.anacomp.com/. The site is designed for the company's more than 5,000 customers, as well as prospects, partners, analysts, media and employees to quickly locate information pertinent to them.

"When I came on board a year ago, I quickly recognized that Anacomp had an incredibly rich base of assets in its technology, infrastructure, legacy and clients. I saw the opportunity for us to rationalize and leverage these assets to deliver new, higher value-added services and solutions to the market," said Howard Dratler, Anacomp's CEO. "Our new, One Anacomp branding strengthens our already-solid market position, supports our aggressive growth plans, and unifies our assets, which include our 40 years of information processing experience for Global 2000 customers across the US and Europe, many of whom have been with us decades. We also boast docHarbor, one of the largest, most robust multi-tenant online repositories in the world, which currently hosts more than 14 billion pages of our customers' mission-critical data."

"Our new branding is not a reinvention of Anacomp, but more an illumination of our strategy, solutions and direction," said Wayne Ford, Anacomp's Senior Vice President of Marketing, Channels and Strategic Alliances. "While we are building on our legacy and continuing to deliver on our core services, going forward, we are going to create more value to our customers and move higher up in the value chain by bringing more complete solutions that help accelerate document-intensive business processes."

Such solutions include CaseLogistix(R), the most powerful and versatile litigation review and integration solution available today, providing a complete system for streamlined electronic document organization, annotation, discovery management and production. Additional solutions include enterprise information capture services, as well as BPM services targeted for human resource and accounts payable applications. Such solutions merge technologies from various Anacomp partners with innovative capabilities offered by Anacomp's docHarbor infrastructure, such as chain-of-custody monitoring, allowing customers to know where their documents are at any time within a process workflow, as well as what personnel have had access to them.

"We're delivering solutions for the litigation, human resource, accounts payable and federal government realms, as these areas give us the opportunity to leverage our assets of document capture on the front end and a strong archive on the back end. In addition, we are scaling our docHarbor on-demand infrastructure in order to deliver these solutions either as software as a service (SaaS) or implemented within our clients' own datacenters," added Dratler. "Finally, we are building our professional services organization to help us better architect and design specific customer implementations of our technology. By developing a world-class professional services team, we'll be able to custom deliver our solutions as needed by our clients, and act as a systems integrator for those who desire to keep their documents in-house."

To help deliver on its strategies, Anacomp is aggressively recruiting numerous synergistic alliance and reselling partners that will help the company deliver end-to-end solutions to mutual customers. Examples include Savvion and Perot Systems in BPM; EMC Captiva, Kofax, IBML, Kodak, Bowe Bell & Howell and Northrop Grumman in the enterprise information capture and online document management realms; and Pitney Bowes, Recommind, Attenex, TechLaw Solutions, Syngence, Equivio and IPRO in the litigation support vertical.
