New Hartford, NY- November 7, 2019 -- PAR Technology Corporation (NYSE: PAR) ("PAR Technology" or the "Company") today announced its results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2019.

Summary of Fiscal 2019 Third Quarter and Year-to-Date Financial Results

GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2019 was $5.9 million, or $0.36 loss per share, a decrease from the GAAP net loss of $16.7 million, or $1.04 loss per share reported for the same period in 2018.

Non-GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2019 was $4.2 million, or $0.26 loss per share, compared to non-GAAP net loss of $1.0 million, or $0.06 loss per share, for the same period in 2018.

Revenues were reported at $134.3 million for the first nine months of 2019, compared to $154.6 million for the same period in 2018, a 13.1% decrease.

GAAP net loss for the first nine months of 2019 was $9.7 million, or $0.61 loss per share, a decrease from the GAAP net loss of $18.0 million, or $1.12 loss per share reported for the same period in 2018.

Non-GAAP net loss for the first nine months of 2019 was $5.9 million, or $0.37 loss per share, compared to non-GAAP net loss of $1.1 million or $0.07 loss per share, for the same period in 2018.

A reconciliation and description of non-GAAP financial measures to corresponding GAAP financial measures are included in the tables at the end of this press release.


PAR Technology also announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, ParTech, Inc., has entered into an interest purchase agreement to acquire AccSys, LLC (f/k/a AccSys, Inc. and otherwise known as Restaurant Magic ("Restaurant Magic")), a restaurant software company located in Tampa, FL and the developers of Data Central.  Data Central is a suite of cloud backoffice applications to help restaurants achieve operational and financial goals.  The purchase price of $42 million for Restaurant Magic will be financed primarily through cash and equity. The acquisition is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2019.
 
Savneet Singh, PAR Technology CEO & President commented, "I am very pleased to announce that PAR has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Restaurant Magic, a leader in backoffice subscription software for enterprise restaurants.  Restaurant Magic’s software leverages business intelligence and automation technologies to decrease food costs, manage labor and improve overall customer service. This announcement today marks another significant milestone in the rapid evolution of PAR Technology.  Our Company continues to transform itself as we build out our restaurant technology solutions, led by our Brink POS software, to be the leading cloud technology provider for enterprise restaurants.  I’m extremely excited to announce the merging of two powerful entities to create the premier restaurant technology company delivering the required and critical services that are fundamentally changing how restaurants operate around the world.  Combining Restaurant Management with our leading Brink POS software will alter how enterprise restaurants communicate, access data, conduct commerce and manage their businesses across rapidly converging tech platforms."

“We are thrilled to be joining forces with PAR Technology.  Our decision to become a part of PAR was based upon our belief that by combining our companies we will provide new and stronger opportunities to our clients and employees," said Drew Peloubet, CEO of Restaurant Magic. "The goal of our company has always been to maintain continual growth for our company to better meet the needs of our customers, while fiercely protecting the investment our end users have made in deploying our backoffice software applications.  Restaurant Magic’s suite of enterprise applications and services are an excellent fit with PAR Technology’s popular restaurant technology offerings, and together will provide customers throughout the restaurant industry with the most robust set of solutions in the marketplace. The combination of PAR and Restaurant Magic will immediately create an industry leading front to backend cloud technology solution for restaurants."


Mr. Singh continued, “To report on the quarter, we continued to execute our business strategies for growth through investments in product development and acquisitions. Importantly, we’ve begun to see acceleration in Brink bookings and believe this trend will continue. This increase in bookings is primarily related to the dramatic set of changes we made earlier in the year and we expect a stronger pace of bookings in 2020.   Our purchase of 3M Company's Drive-Thru Communications Systems business has also been exceeding our expectations since we closed on the deal September 30th, leading to additional Brink POS prospects and a number of ancillary software opportunities.  In regards to our Government segment, we again reported lower comparative revenues from the same period in 2018, as we navigate funding gaps with specific ISR contract vehicles.  Although we are confident this is a timing issue that will be corrected in the coming quarters, we will manage this aggressively in the near-term.”

Highlights of the Third Quarter 2019:

-- Brink ARR* at end of Q3 '19 now totals $17.9 million - an increase of 30% and $4.1 million from end of Q3 '18

-- New store activations in Q3 totaled 630 sites

-- Active Brink sites as of October 14th - now total 9,300 restaurants (net of churn)

-- Brink bookings in Q3 '19 - 961 restaurants - a 41% increase from Q2 ‘19

-- Brink Open Orders (backlog) totaled 682 stores at end of Q3

-- Brink bookings in Q3' 19 ASP** = over $200 per month

*ARR - Run rate of annual recurring revenues - SaaS and support revenues

**ASP - Average selling price SaaS and support revenues

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP.  However, non-GAAP adjusted financial measures, as set forth in the reconciliation table above, are provided because management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating the results of the Company's continuing operations and believes this information provides investors supplemental insight into underlying business trends and operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The Company's results of operations are impacted by certain non-recurring charges, including equity based compensation, acquisition and divestiture related expenditures, expense related to the internal investigation into conduct in China and Singapore (the "China/Singapore internal investigation"), and other non-recurring charges that may not be indicative of the Company’s financial performance. Management believes that adjusting its operating expenses, operating loss, net loss and diluted loss per share to remove non-recurring charges provides a useful perspective with respect to the Company's operating results and provides supplemental information to both management and investors by removing items that are difficult to predict and are often unanticipated.  While the Company believes the adjustments provide a useful comparison, the reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to corresponding GAAP measures should be carefully evaluated.


During the third quarter of 2019, the Company recorded approximately $207,000 of expenses related to the expected sale of its SureCheck product group within the Company's Restaurant/Retail reporting segment. This represents approximately $217,000 included in costs of sales related to a reserve for inventory and an approximately $10,000 decrease in costs of service related to the impairment of intangible assets for the SureCheck product group. The Company recorded approximately $105,000 of expenses related to the Company's continued cooperation with the Singapore authorities in connection with the findings of the completed China/Singapore internal investigation. Additionally, approximately $986,000 of equity based compensation charges were recorded during the third quarter of 2019. The Company recognized amortization of acquired intangible assets of approximately $241,000 related to the Company’s 2014 acquisition of Brink Software, Inc. (the "Brink Acquisition"). The provision for income tax was netted down by a 24%, or approximately $539,000, tax impact from non-GAAP adjustments. Further, the Company recognized approximately $706,000 accretion of interest related to the Company's 4.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024 (the "Notes").

During the third quarter of 2018, the Company recorded $305,000 of selling, general and administrative expenses related to the internal investigation into conduct at the Company's China and Singapore offices and the SEC subpoena. Additionally, $323,000 of equity based compensation charges were recorded during the third quarter of 2018. There were $157,000 of severance expenses recorded in the third quarter. The Company recognized amortization of acquired intangible assets of $241,000 related to the Brink Acquisition and recorded a one-time $14,894,000 valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of its deferred tax assets pursuant to FASB ASC 740. The valuation allowance was offset by $0.3 million or 24% representing the tax impact of non-GAAP adjustments.
