Retalix Announces First Quarter 2011 Results

11% Growth in Total Revenues vs. Q1 2010; $3.3 Million in Net Income

(Non-GAAP) and Generating Strong Operating Cash Flow of $6.7

Million While Continuing to Execute on Strategic Plan

RA'ANANA, Israel, May 5, 2011 -- Retalix® Ltd. (NasdaqGS:RTLX), a leading provider of software and services for retailers and distributors, announced today results for the first quarter of 2011 ended March 31, 2011.

Summarized financial highlights for the first quarter:

Total Revenues were up 11% to $54.1 million, compared with $48.7 million in the first quarter of 2010.

Adjusted Income from Operations (Non-GAAP)* was $4.8 million, compared to $4.7 million in the first quarter of 2010.

Income from Operations (GAAP) was $3.4 million, compared to $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2010.

Financial Expense was $0.3 million, related to the impact of currency fluctuations on the Company’s non-dollar assets and the costs of currency translations, net of interest income. This compares to a financial expense of $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2010.

Adjusted Net Income (Non-GAAP)* was $3.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to $3.3 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2010. The weighted number of average shares for the first quarter 2011 rose to 24,683,000 fully diluted versus 24,236,000 for the first quarter of 2010.

GAAP Net Income was $2.3 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, versus $1.9 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2010.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities was $6.7 million.

Balance Sheet grew to over $140 million in cash and cash equivalents, deposits and marketable securities with negligible debt as of March 31, 2011.

Shuky Sheffer, Chief Executive Officer of Retalix, said, “We had a good first quarter for 2011 achieving 11% growth in total revenues and solid profitability while we continued to execute our strategic plan and build our growth engines. We also won new customers, successfully delivered and implemented projects for our customers and enhanced our business pipeline. We are beginning to sign longer-term, multiyear contracts with customers, which we believe is a significant demonstration of the customers’ confidence in Retalix and provides us with better visibility and more efficiency in our operations. We are also successfully introducing our expanded Systems Integration (SI) offering into our customer projects. For example, we recently signed a new contract with Southern Co-operative Ltd., which operates over 150 stores in southern England. The contract includes store solutions, loyalty and replenishment integrated with SI services ranging from testing to deployment and support. In January, we launched our new Retalix 10 Store Suite, a store platform, which is differentiated by its unique architecture and enables flexible deployment options. It seamlessly combines major customer-centric retailing functions and multiple customer touch points, enhances the customer experience, enables quick time-to-market and reduces the cost of ownership. Retalix 10 is generating a lot of excitement with retailers and industry analysts. Its unique architecture and functionality provides meaningful advantages both for our existing customers to upgrade and for new customers looking for the most advanced solutions on the market today.”

Hugo Goldman, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, said, “In the first quarter of 2011 we again grew total revenues, maintained profitability and generated strong cash flow from operations by carefully managing our efforts. We achieved an 8.8% operating margin (Non-GAAP), which is an improvement versus the previous quarter while we continue to invest in strategic customer programs and grow our operations. We improved the quality of our revenues with the percentage of revenues coming from hardware continuing to decline and produced a healthy cash flow from operations. We generated cash flows of approximately $6.7 million in the quarter which helped us to maintain our strong balance sheet with over $140 million in cash and cash equivalents and negligible debt.”

Outlook for FY 2011

Sheffer added, “We are pleased with our progress and we had a good start to 2011. We are reiterating the guidance we announced in March for the full year 2011. We expect total revenues for 2011 to be in the range of $217 million to $228 million. We also expect to maintain at least the same level of profitability in 2011 as compared to 2010, while continuing to develop the growth engines for Retalix. We are working hard to execute on our plan to build growth for Retalix and our business pipeline is improving.”
