Financial Results and Highlights

Revenues

For the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, Service Revenues were $14.8 million compared to $12.4 million during the same period last year, an increase of $2.4 million or 19.5%, with growth coming from organic Service Revenues, AIS and from acquisitions. For the year ended December 31, 2013, Service Revenues were $56.0 million compared to $49.0 million during the same period last year, an increase of $6.9 million or 14.1%, and included a $0.6 million reduction in revenues related to the Yen exchange rate on a constant currency basis in the year.

Product Sales during the fourth quarter of 2013 were $4.5 million compared to $3.8 million during the same period last year. The quarterly year-over-year increase in Product Sales of $0.6 million was driven mainly by the acquisitions, but was offset by lower Product Sales in Japan and the impact of a less favorable U.S.$/Yen exchange rate in the fourth quarter compared to last year. Product Sales for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $18.3 million compared to $15.5 million in the prior year period. The full year-over-year increase of 18.0% in Product Sales was largely due to organic growth of $0.7 million at StarTrak and $4.4 million from the acquisitions, offset by lower Product Sales of $2.4 million in Japan and the impact of a less favorable U.S.$/Yen exchange rate in 2013 compared to 2012. Product Sales in the year were lower by $0.7 million due to the Yen exchange rate on a constant currency basis.

Total Revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 were $19.2 million compared to $16.2 million during the same period of 2012, an increase of 18.7%. Total Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $74.2 million compared to $64.5 million in the prior year period, an increase of 15.1%.
