Digital Ally, Inc. Announces 2016 First Quarter Operating Results

Provides Update on Taser International Patent Litigation


LENEXA, KS--(Marketwired - May 10, 2016) - Digital Ally, Inc. (NASDAQ: DGLY), which develops, manufactures and markets advanced video surveillance products for law enforcement, homeland security and commercial applications, today announced its operating results for the first quarter of 2016. An investor conference call is scheduled for 11:15 a.m. EDT tomorrow, May 11, 2016 (see details below) to discuss first quarter operating results and other topics of interest.

Highlights for Quarter Ended March 31, 2016

  • Total revenue increased to approximately $4.4 million in the first quarter 2016, compared with approximately $4.2 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2015.

  • Gross profit margin improved to 42.1% of total revenue in the first quarter 2016, compared with 38.9% in the quarter ended March 31, 2015.

  • Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 16% from year-earlier levels as the Company incurred increased litigation expenses and non-cash stock compensation costs.

  • The Company reported an operating loss of ($2,337,895) for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared to an operating loss of ($1,963,195) in the year-earlier quarter.

  • A net loss of ($2,313,125) or ($.44) per share was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared with a net loss of ($6,410,712), or ($1.90) per share, in the three months ended March 31, 2015. Approximately $4.3 million of the year-earlier net loss was attributable to net non-cash charges related to changes in the fair value of secured convertible notes payable and derivative liabilities, along with note payable issuance expenses.

  • The DVM-800 and FirstVU HD contributed 62% of total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to 54% for the comparable period ending March 31, 2015.

  • On a non-GAAP basis, the Company recorded an adjusted net loss of ($1,760,047), or ($0.34) per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared with a non-GAAP adjusted net loss of ($1,530,140), or ($0.45) per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

  • We believe recently highly publicized law enforcement incidents have provided federal, state and municipal governments with an opportunity to reassess spending priorities resulting in a move to the type of increased transparency and accountability that our products assist in providing.

  • Our international revenues increased to $313,729 in the first quarter 2016, compared with $39,688 during the first quarter of 2015.

Taser International Litigation Developments
The Company filed suit on January 15, 2016 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas (Case No: 2:16-cv-02032) against Taser, alleging that Taser willfully infringed its U.S. Patent No. 8,781,292 ("the '292 Patent) by selling and offering to sell its Axon camera product line and Signal Performance Power Magazine. The '292 Patent is principally embodied in our VuLink product relating to our auto-activation technology for law enforcement body-worn cameras and in-car audio/video cameras. The lawsuit was initiated after the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") reconfirmed the validity of the '292 Patent confirmed the validity of the '292 patent with 59 claims covering various aspects of the Company's auto-activation technology.

On February 2, 2016, the Company amended its complaint against Taser, further alleging that Taser is directly and indirectly liable for infringing its U.S. Patent No. 9,253,452 ("the '452 Patent") in addition to the '292 Patent. The '452 Patent generally covers the automatic activation and coordination of multiple recording devices in response to a triggering event, such as a law enforcement officer activating the light bar on the vehicle. The Company's amended complaint seeks both monetary damages and a permanent injunction against Taser for infringing both the '452 and '292 Patents.

In addition to the '292 and '452 Patents infringement claims, the February 2, 2016 amended complaint added a new set of claims to the lawsuit alleging that Taser conspired to keep Digital Ally out of the marketplace by engaging in improper, unethical, and unfair competition. The amended lawsuit alleges Taser bribed officials and otherwise conspired to secure no-bid contracts for its products in violation of both state law and federal antitrust law. The Company's lawsuit also seeks monetary and injunctive relief, including treble damages, for these alleged violations.

The Company filed an amended complaint and Taser filed an answer that denied the patent infringement allegations on April 1, 2016. In addition, Taser filed a motion to dismiss all allegations in the complaint on March 4, 2016 for which the Company filed an amended complaint on March 18, 2016 to address certain technical deficiencies in the pleadings. Taser amended and renewed its motion to seek dismissal of the allegations that it had bribed officials and otherwise conspired to secure no-bid contracts for its products in violation of both state law and federal antitrust law on April 1, 2016. Formal discovery commenced on April 12, 2016.

"The Company is vigorously pursuing its litigation against Taser and intends to make Taser answer for its willful infringement and anticompetitive and illegal behavior. We believe that our auto-activation technology for law enforcement body-worn and in-car audio/video cameras embodied in its '292 and '452 Patents is quickly becoming a standard requirement within the industry, " stated Stanton E. Ross, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Ally. 

Management Comments

"Our first quarter revenue exceeded prior-year levels." stated Stanton E. Ross, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Ally, Inc. "However, we believe our first quarter 2016 revenue improvement over the prior year period could have been higher had our revenues not been negatively impacted after Taser stated in a 2015 press release that all of the claims in our '292 Patent were determined to be "unpatentable." We believe this press release was misleading and incorrect, causing confusion and concern in our marketplace, customer base and potential customers. Ultimately, the USPTO reconfirmed the validity of our '292 Patent on January 14, 2016 and we then filed suit against Taser alleging willful patent infringement and including claims of commercial bribery and other unfair trade practices." 

"Our body-worn camera has received much media attention in recent months. Consequently, many law enforcement agencies, both domestic and international, are actively testing and evaluating the FirstVU HD, and we expect demand to accelerate during the balance of 2016. We have dramatically increased our production and delivery capabilities relative to the FirstVU HD body-worn camera, and we continue to develop other new products. We believe there has been a shift in buying pattern for our customers, as our patented VuLink ecosystem which provides officer's with auto-activation of in-car and body camera systems has generated significant interest among law enforcement agencies. Agencies are recognizing the importance and value of collecting video evidence of interactions between law enforcement and civilians from multiple perspectives and automatically activating the recordings in high-stress situations. As policy and proper funding fall into place, we are optimistic these evaluation programs will continue to culminate in sales as the potential customers evaluate our body-worn and in-car video camera solutions."

"Our first quarter 2016 international revenue increased 690% to $313,729, compared to $39,688 in first quarter 2015. With certain features such as auto-activation as provided by our VuLink ecosystem becoming the industry standard, we believe Digital Ally is best able to meet customer needs in this regard. In recent quarters, unfavorable changes in the foreign exchange rate in many countries have negatively impacted our international sales. However, we are hopeful that the upturn we experienced in the first quarter 2016 will continue for the balance of 2016."

"The Company's gross margin percentage increased to 42.1% in the first quarter 2016 from 31% in the fourth quarter 2015. During late 2015 we replaced and upgraded the cable connector implemented on our FirstVU HD body-worn camera, causing us to rework the entire installed base. In recent quarters, this upgrade has contributed to scrap costs adversely affecting our gross margin. However, the upgrade was completed in first quarter 2016 and we believe that gross margins should continue to improve and return to more normal levels in future quarters." 

"We entered 2016 with a stronger balance sheet and greater liquidity, which should be able to support a significantly higher level of product sales and shipments if anticipated orders are forthcoming," added Ross. "Unrestricted cash and equivalents totaled $5.9 million and we were debt-free at March 31, 2016. We had approximately $17.0 million in net working capital available at March 31, 2016, including $2.9 million of accounts receivable and $10.3 million of inventory. We will work to reduce inventory levels during the balance of 2016 to provide additional funding for operations," concluded Ross.

First Quarter Operating Results 

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company's total revenue increased 4% to approximately $4.4 million, compared with revenue of approximately $4.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2015. The Company attributes the revenue increase to increased interest in the benefits of video evidence among law enforcement agencies following recent well publicized events in several cities. The Company believes that certain police agencies have delayed their purchases until they have developed policies and procedures regarding the use of body-worn cameras and the storage and release of the video evidence generated.

International revenue increased to $313,729 during the first quarter of 2016, versus $39,668 in the corresponding period of the previous year. Gross Profit margin increased to $1,853,619 (42.1% of revenue) in first quarter 2016 from $1,653,740 (38.9%) a year earlier. Management expects that gross margins will continue to improve during the balance of 2016 primarily because the FirstVU HD connector replacement and upgrade program was concluded in the first quarter 2016. This upgrade contributed to total scrap cost that adversely affected our third and fourth quarter 2015 gross margins, and to a lesser extent, the first quarter 2016.

Our commercial event recorder revenues were lower in the first quarter 2016 compared to 2015. We believe this decline was caused by uncertain supply of the product due to certain component shortages. These supply chain issues have been resolved and we expect improvement in future quarters.

Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $4,191,514 and $3,616,935 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, an increase of 16%. Overall, selling general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 95% in the first quarter 2016 compared to 85% in the same period in 2015. Our research and development expenses totaled $808,854 and $743,343 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively an increase of 9%. As of March 31, 2016, the Company employed a total of 27 engineers compared to 23 engineers at March 31, 2015, most of whom are dedicated to research and development activities for new products. We are increasing our engineering staff of web-based developers as we expand our offerings to include, among other items, cloud-based evidence storage and management of our law enforcement customers (VuVault.net) and our web-based commercial fleet driver monitoring and management tool (FleetVU). Selling, advertising and promotional expenses totaled $922,992 and $843,886 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively a 9% increase. The Company hired additional territory salesmen during the last half of 2015 to provide better coverage of the domestic market, contributing to higher overall selling costs. Stock-based compensation expense which is a non-cash expense totaled $425,830 and $269,200 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, an increase of 58%. The increase is primarily due to the increasing use of restricted stock grants during 2015 and 2016 to the Company's officers, directors and other employees for incentive purposes Professional fees and expenses totaled $571,078 ad $289,823 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, an increase of 97%. The increase in professional fees and expenses in the first quarter 2016 compared to 2015 is primarily attributable to higher litigation expenses related to the Utility Associates, Inc. ("Utility") and Taser lawsuits. We expect litigation expense to trend higher during the remainder of 2016 as we pursue recovery, injunctions, awards and judgements from Utility, Taser, their insurers and other parties, as appropriate.

For the reasons previously stated, the Company reported an operating loss of ($2,337,895) for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared with an operating loss of ($1,963,195) for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Interest income increased to $8,992 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $5,315 in 2015.

Non-cash income of $16,533 was recorded in the first quarter of 2016 as a result of changes in warrant derivative values compared to non-cash income of $165,722 for the first quarter of 2015.

The holder of the $4.0 million Secured Convertible Note exercised its right to convert the remaining principal balance of the note into common shares during the first quarter of 2015. Therefore, there was no corresponding income or expense relative to changes in fair value of secured convertible notes payable or secured convertible note payable issuance expenses in the first quarter of 2016.

We incurred interest expense of $755 and $126,173 during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively due to our reduced indebtedness in 2016. All interest bearing debt other than capital leases was retired 2015 from the proceeds of our registered direct offering of common stock in July 2015. 

The Company recorded a 2016 first quarter net loss of ($2,313,125), or ($0.44) per share, compared with a net loss of ($6,410,712) or ($1.90) in the year prior, an improvement of 64%. No income tax provision or benefit was provided in the first quarters of either 2015 or 2016.

The Company expects to continue to maintain a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets, including approximately $32.9 million of net operating loss carry forwards, until it determines that it can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates its ability to realize such assets.

On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported an adjusted net loss (before, depreciation, amortization, net interest expense, changes in derivative liabilities, losses on the conversion of secured convertible notes payable, $4.0 million Senior Secured Convertible Note issuance expenses, and stock-based compensation), of ($1,760,047), or ($0.34) per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, versus a non-GAAP adjusted net loss of ($1,530,140), or ($0.45) per share, in the first quarter of 2015. (Non-GAAP adjusted net income / loss is described in greater detail in a table at the end of this press release).
