Sysorex Global Holdings Corp. Announces Results for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014





Conference Call to be Held May 15, 2014 at 4:45 pm Eastern Time








SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 15, 2014--Sysorex Global Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ:SYRX) (“Sysorex”),an emerging growth technology company, today reported its financial results for the three-months ended March 31, 2014.





Revenues were $16,320,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $5,362,000 in revenues for the comparable period in the prior year, an increase of $10,958,000 from the first quarter of 2013. The increase is primarily attributable to the Company’s acquisition of Lilien Systems in March of 2013 and Shoom, Inc. in August of 2013.





Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $11,969,000 compared to $3,906,000 for the comparable period in the prior year, an increase of $8,063,000. Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $5,045,000 compared to $2,418,000 for the comparable period in the prior year.  The increase in cost of revenues and operating expenses were also attributable to the recent acquisition of Lilien and Shoom.





Our loss from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $695,000 compared to $962,000 for the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease of $267,000 resulted from lower acquisition and transaction costs during the first quarter of 2014, which was offset by increased amortization of intangibles resulting from the Lilien and Shoom acquisitions.





Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measurement) for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $51,000, compared to $102,000. Consolidated net loss attributable to Sysorex shareholders was $781,000 or ($0.05) per share compared to $1,458,000 or ($0.16) per share for the first quarter of 2013. Pro forma net loss per share was ($0.01) per share compared to ($0.05) per share for the first quarter of 2013.





"We are pleased to see the growth in our business lines reflected in our results as we continue integrating our big data analytics acquisitions,” said Nadir Ali, CEO of Sysorex. "Moreover, the acquisition of Air Patrol Corporation in April 2014 further reflects the execution of our strategy to transition our business from a service company to a technology company," he continued.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Loss and Pro Forma Net Loss Per Share to GAAP Net Loss Per Share





Management believes that certain financial measures not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") are useful measures of operations. The Company defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, and depreciation and amortization.  The Company defines Pro forma net loss per share as GAAP net loss per share adjusted for stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles and one time non-recurring charges such as acquisition and offering costs.





Management provides Adjusted EBITDA and Pro forma net loss per share measure so that investors will have the same financial information that management uses, which may assist investors in properly assessing the Company's performance on a period-over-period basis. Adjusted EBITDA or Pro forma net loss per share is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss) or any other measure of performance under GAAP, or to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA and Pro forma net loss per share have limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider either in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the company's results as reported under GAAP.
