NEXTMap Europe 100% Collected
NEXTMap USA 71% Collected
NEXTMap Revenue Growth of 168% over Prior Year
Intermap Technologies Corp.
Intermap Technologies Corp. ("Intermap" or the "Company"), today reported
financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2008. A conference call
will be held tomorrow, Tuesday, August 12, at 8:00 am eastern time to discuss
the results.
Financial Review
All amounts in this news release are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
For the second quarter of 2008, Intermap(TM) reported total revenues of $6.9
million compared to $7.1 million in the second quarter of 2007. Intermap's
contract services revenue component contributed $2.5 million and multi-client
data licenses (MCDL) revenue from NEXTMap(R) datasets contributed $4.4 million.
"We are beginning to see real revenue growth from our NEXTMap datasets," said
Brian Bullock, president & CEO of Intermap. "For the first half of 2008, MCDL
revenue from our NEXTMap datasets has grown to $6.2 million. This represents an
increase of 168% from $2.3 million in the first half of 2007. Current contracts
under negotiation indicate this trend will continue, validating the overall
NEXTMap business premise - map once and sell multiple times, to multiple
markets. Data from the three-dimensional maps we are creating for the U.S. and
Europe is being implemented in a variety of valuable applications."
During the second quarter, approximately 86% of MCDL revenue was associated with
the Company's NEXTMap USA program, 7% with NEXTMap Britain, 6% with the
Company's Indonesian dataset, and 1% with NEXTMap Europe. NEXTMap USA revenues
in the quarter were derived primarily from a sale of NEXTMap USA data totaling
$3.4 million. Cumulative MCDL sales since the inception of the NEXTMap business
model have reached $40 million as of June 30, 2008. This compares to a total
cumulative investment in the NEXTMap program of approximately $85 million.
Sales, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the second quarter were
$7.8 million compared to $6.0 million for the same period in 2007. The majority
of these increases were attributable to the costs of personnel in the areas of
business development (including automotive initiatives), recreational map
enabled GPS/PND applications, insurance risk assessment, and sales and marketing
in support of our MCDL data licensing.
Amortization expense of the MCDL database increased to $2.3 million from $1.0
million in Q2 of 2007 primarily due to an increase in the size of the underlying
NEXTMap datasets and from increased revenue associated with these datasets.
After interest income, interest expense and a foreign exchange gain with a
combined total of $0.3 million, Intermap reported a net loss of $6.2 million or
($0.13) per share in the second quarter, compared to a net loss of $4.3 million
or ($0.12) per share for the same period in 2007.
Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2008 were $41.1 million, compared to $56.8
million at December 31, 2007. The Company's working capital was $44.0 million at
June 30, 2008, compared to $65.0 million at December 31, 2007.
GPS / Personal Navigation Devices (PND)
In July, Intermap jointly announced with Magellan(R) the first commercial
availability of Intermap's AccuTerra(TM) maps for their Triton(R) and
eXplorist(R) handheld GPS devices, providing outdoor enthusiasts with advanced
topographic maps and off-road points-of-interest. Recognized as an industry
innovator, Magellan is one of the world's best known GPS brands. Intermap's
AccuTerra maps complement Magellan's product lines with the nation's best
recreational map content for GPS devices. Magellan's recreational customers now
have access to digital terrain data, off-road and recreation-related roads,
trails, and points-of-interest such as campgrounds, service facilities, and
landmarks. Additionally, customers can benefit from a land-management data layer
that displays the location of public lands (national forest, wilderness areas,
state parks, etc.) and private property for most recreation areas in the United
States. Customers can now download maps for the contiguous 48 states and Hawaii
from the Magellan website for immediate use.
AccuTerra maps are available via download at http://www.magellangps.com.
Magellan devices supporting the AccuTerra products are the Triton 400, 500,
1500, and 2000 units, and the eXplorist 400, 500, 600, and XL units.
Intermap is supplying its AccuTerra recreational map content under license to
manufacturers of GPS/PND hardware devices. In addition to Magellan, Intermap has
also announced a similar relationship with Bushnell Outdoor Products. Bushnell
users will also be able to access Intermap's AccuTerra recreational map data for
the contiguous 48 states and Hawaii. Future versions of the Company's AccuTerra
maps will include expanded map content including 3D capability which will allow
users to visualize trails and other features in all three dimensions on their
GPS devices.
Insurance Risk Management
Intermap is developing flood risk models in European countries following the
success of flood modeling applications pioneered by a partner insurance company
in Great Britain. The Company has also partnered with SwissRe for use of their
flood modeling algorithms and for quality assurance support throughout Western
Europe. Recently, Intermap signed its first country wide agreement for flood
risk modeling in Europe. Work on the program is underway and the specific
country and insurance partner will be announced upon completion of the model,
which is expected in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Insurance companies can use NEXTMap's superior insurance risk information to
better define possible risks. The result can be more effective portfolio
management and a net reduction of costs through a reduced need for reinsurance
coverage and lower payouts after insurable events occur. Intermap is also in
discussions with U.S. insurers for commercial insurance applications.
Active Powertrain Management
Over a very short time, the pressure for improved fuel economy has become
enormous and a dramatic transition is occurring within the automotive sector. A
significant amount of fuel expense in the heavy trucking industry is attributed
to changes in road slope. The Company's 3D road vector data is enabling the
design of systems to manage optimal vehicle speed, drive-train management, and
engine performance. These active powertrain management systems are designed to
improve fuel economy and reduce overall operating costs of the vehicle by
providing knowledge of the road ahead including slope and distance.
Since 2007, Intermap has been working with Auburn University to investigate and
evaluate ways to save fuel using our 3D road data. The project's initial results
have led to a continuation of this collaborative study with not only Auburn
University, but also with commercial partners in the trucking industry. Intermap
has also commissioned a project at Clemson University to conduct a similar
investigation for hybrid vehicle technology.
NEXTMap Europe
Intermap completed the collection of NEXTMap Europe in the second quarter,
collecting approximately 2.2 million square kilometers of data across Europe
encompassing 18 Western European countries.
Intermap has sold its first national dataset for NEXTMap Germany, which was the
first European country to become commercially available. The sale was made to
E-Plus Mobilfunk, Germany's third largest wireless network provider, to
determine precise antennae heights, accurate predictions of field strength and
coverage, and optimized antennae locations and characteristics utilizing
Intermap's 3D digital mapping data. E-Plus licensed the Company's digital
terrain models (DTMs) from the NEXTMap Europe data library which delivers
uniform vertical accuracy of 1 meter across the entire region. E-Plus is able to
provide a higher level of service for their customers through advanced network
planning with this high-degree of accuracy.
Intermap will continue to make data available for the remaining European
countries as it is processed. All of the NEXTMap Europe datasets are expected to
be fully completed and commercially available by March 31, 2009. These datasets
will be the most uniformly accurate 3D digital maps of Western Europe in
existence. The next complete country datasets expected to be released during
this year are France and Italy.
NEXTMap USA
NEXTMap USA is the Company's largest mapping program and includes terrain
elevation and imagery data accurate to one-meter or better, covering nearly
eight million square kilometers of the United States. The Company collected a
total of 1.8 million square kilometers of NEXTMap data during the first half of
2008 of which 877,000 square kilometers was for NEXTMap USA. The total data
collected since the inception of the NEXTMap USA program is 5.6 million square
kilometers, or 71% of the contiguous 48 states and Hawaii. The Company expects
to have the NEXTMap USA program completed by the end of the fourth quarter of
2009.
"We have been hitting all of our production goals and maintained cost targets on
the NEXTMap USA program," said Mr. Bullock. "In the second quarter, the seasonal
efficiency gains that we realize with summer weather, combined with the
collection of comparatively flat mid-west terrain, resulted in the lowest cost
yet per square kilometer since the inception of the NEXTMap program. The impact
of the recent increases in fuel costs to the Company's aircraft operations have
been neutralized by continued productivity gains. Aircraft fuel represents only
a small percentage of the total cost of the Company's NEXTMap programs."

analysis can be found on SEDAR at: www.sedar.com.
