Concurrent Computer Corporation Teams with Safari Technologies to Provide Video-On-Demand in the Classroom
- Concurrent`s MediaHawk(TM) to be Used at Educational Institutions -
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 23, 2001-- Concurrent Computer Corporation (Nasdaq:CCUR - news) announced today that five Concurrent MediaHawk(TM) Video Servers have been purchased for Video-On-Demand (VOD) delivery in the Allen, Texas; Commerce, Texas; and Kirkwood, Mo. Independent School Districts; as well as the City Universities of New York, Lehman College. The five MediaHawk Video Servers were purchased by Safari Technologies, Inc. (Otsego, Mich.), a supplier of digital video solutions specially designed and optimized for the education market. Concurrent will be demonstrating Safari Technologies` IP-based digital video solutions for distance learning, as well as other applications, at the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) conference in Las Vegas April 22-26 at its booth, Exhibit E-Topia No. 2823.

Three Independent School Districts Get Educational Video-On-Demand in the Classroom

With Concurrent`s MediaHawk, the three independent school districts in Texas and Missouri will be delivering encoded educational content to the classroom via baseband video (to the television) from a proprietary Safari Technologies` control and distribution system.

With the Safari centralized media distribution system, teachers will have access from the classroom to many media sources, including educational video, supported by Concurrent`s MediaHawk Video Server. This system enables on-demand access to high-quality, digital video to enhance the student learning experience. Safari`s products deliver high-quality video, audio, and data on existing network infrastructures. This is the first in a series of ongoing sales to other independent school districts across the United States, and these model systems have been specified by one of the most active educational technology consultants in the U.S.

Lehman College Enhances Language Laboratory with Streaming Video

Lehman College will utilize the MediaHawk system for its 30-seat language laboratory, which has a PC at each station and one teacher`s station. The first of its kind, this application will deliver baseband and LAN interactive video and audio to the desktop PC via Concurrent`s MediaHawk to aid in the efficiency of foreign language learning. This ``language lab of the future`` gives students resources that reach beyond a recording on a VHS tape, and it gives the teachers full interactive function to each workstation. Furthermore, Lehman College also represents the model for language labs in a number of other colleges in the City University of New York (CUNY) system.

Lehman College, located in the Bronx, New York, is committed to meeting the needs of the urban population it serves. One of Lehman`s objectives is ``to advance the understanding and use of emerging technologies,`` and its language laboratory translates this objective into action. Its Department of Languages and Literature is at the forefront of foreign language study, providing language and literature courses in 12 languages and participating in a variety of interdisciplinary programs, including the unique Multilingual Journalism program. Lehman also offers language courses in phonetics, business, translation, and health professions.

Tim Beekman, president, Safari Video Network Division, said, ``Concurrent`s MediaHawk Video Server can deliver baseband and network video simultaneously and independently - this is key to our customers. Because of our close relationship with Concurrent and its proven Video-On-Demand product delivery combined with Safari`s reputation for delivering reliable, high-quality, state-of-the-art educational systems, we are confident our solutions will exceed our customers` expectations.``

``Concurrent is proud to partner with Safari Technologies to bring video streaming capabilities into the classroom for such unique learning applications,`` said Jack Bryant, Concurrent president and CEO. ``Our digital video streaming technology, combined with Safari`s leadership in the education industry, is a winning combination for bringing Video-On-Demand to educational institutions.``

Concurrent posts Q3 profit, sees Q4 loss
ATLANTA, April 26 (Reuters) - Computer systems maker Concurrent Computer Corp. (NasdaqNM:CCUR - news) said Thursday it posted a third-quarter profit, its first in two years, driven by strong revenues and gains at its Video-On-Demand segment.

Third quarter net income for the period ended March 31 was $802,000, or one cent a share, compared with a net loss of $2.2 million, or 4 cents a share in one year ago.

Analysts had expected results to range from a loss of 3 cents to a profit of one cent, with a consensus of nil, according to Thomson Financial/First Call.

Total revenue for the third quarter ended March 31 totaled $22.1 million, up 29.7 percent from $17.0 million in the same quarter of the prior year.

The Atlanta-based company said revenue from its Video-on- Demand sales grew to over $10.3 million in the third quarter from $3.7 million in the same quarter of the prior year. The company attributed the gains to the initial sale of VOD systems to telecommunications company Comcast Corp.

The company forecast losses from operations of about 2 cents a share in its fourth quarter, 10 cents a share for the 2001 fiscal year and 5 cents a share in the first quarter of fiscal 2002.

Sector Spotlight: Back by Unpopular Demand, Concurrent and SeaChange
By George Mannes
Senior Writer
4/29/01 1:30 PM ET





Perceived demand for video-on-demand isn`t what it used to be.

Shares of video-on-demand players Concurrent Computer (CCUR:Nasdaq - news) and SeaChange International (SEAC:Nasdaq - news) plummeted Friday following Concurrent`s lowered revenue forecast.

The stocks` quick fall, which echoes a similar decline after a post-Christmas warning from Concurrent, reflects the classic tension between long-term hopes and short-term setbacks for companies trying to introduce any new technology. On the one hand, Concurrent, SeaChange and the analysts who follow them remain bullish about the eventual triumph of VOD, which lets TV viewers pick movies and other programming from a menu to watch at any time of day they choose. On the other hand, the stocks can get hammered by factors such as Concurrent`s articulated pessimism about economic conditions affecting VOD system sales to cable television operators over the next three to six months.

On Friday, Concurrent`s shares sank $3.30, or 38%, to close at $5.50. SeaChange`s shares dropped $3.92 to $16.12, off 20% for the day.

Concurrent`s gloomy forecast came Thursday evening as the company reported good news, partly in the form of better-than-expected results for the fiscal third quarter ended March 31. Off revenues of $22.1 million, the company reported net income of $802,000, or a penny a share, ahead of the analysts` consensus of break-even, as reported by Thomson Financial/First Call. The quarter marked the first time in two years that the company has reported an operating profit, and was the biggest revenue quarter for Concurrent in three years. In addition, earlier on Thursday, cable operator Cox Communications (COX:NYSE - news) said it was launching a new video-on-demand service that would employ Concurrent hardware and software.

Unfortunately, Concurrent`s outlook for its video-on-demand operations -- the part of the company`s business on which investors have pinned expectations for growth and long-term economic success -- wasn`t as reassuring. The company estimates video-on-demand revenue for the fourth quarter ending June 30 at $6 million, down from the $12 million previously expected. Video-on-demand revenue for the fiscal year ending June 2002 will be about $38 million at most, the company says -- well short of prior estimates such as the $83.5 million that Jefferies analyst Joseph Bellace had expected for fiscal 2002. Bellace lowered his rating on Concurrent from accumulate to hold; Jefferies hasn`t done underwriting for Concurrent.

On the company`s Thursday conference call with analysts, Concurrent President and CEO Jack Bryant spotlighted two issues, which he called "frankly beyond our direct influence and control," that were hurting cable operators` deployment of video-on-demand. One was what he called the "apparent standoff" between cable operators and Hollywood studios, which aren`t releasing movies for video-on-demand as the operators had hoped they would. "The lack of good content is keeping a number of cable operators from committing to widescale deployment in the short term," Bryant said.

In fact, the unnamed cable operator that caused Concurrent`s December preannouncement by postponing an expected order didn`t place the order in the March quarter for the same reason, Bryant said: difficulties getting content for the service. That firm -- which Concurrent said in December it hoped would place its order in the March quarter -- now tells Concurrent it could take another three to six months to iron out its content disagreements with movie studios.

In addition, said Bryant, video-on-demand suppliers are competing for limited capital expenditure budgets among cable operators, who are spending very conservatively to meet "aggressive" cash-flow-growth objectives.

Analysts following the video-on-demand market are counseling patience in the face of Thursday`s news.

Darren vonBehren of Hoak Breedlove Wesneski lowered his price target on Concurrent from $25 to $15, but kept his buy rating on the company. "A longer-term approach is the only way, in our opinion, to play the continued lumpy revenue stream associated with the current video-on-demand market," he wrote in a note before the market opened Friday. His firm hasn`t done banking for Concurrent.

VonBehren wrote that he anticipated Concurrent`s shares falling as investors absorbed the company`s new guidance, "which will give longer-term investors an opportunity to buy shares of a leading VOD industry player at less expensive levels." Concurrent`s shares have ranged between $3.88 and $21.75 over the past 52 weeks.

"While timing of entry is critical in this stock," vonBehren wrote, "we believe the adoption of VOD by [cable system operators] and the scope of the interest surrounding it by the viewing public will drive continued buy interest in CCUR`s shares."

Concurrent is "probably being way too conservative," says David Lee Smith of Dain Rauscher Wessels. He says Concurrent created a worst-case scenario to prevent future bad news, but painted such a bleak picture that it created the negative surprise it was trying to avoid. "I think they made a sow`s ear out of a silk purse," he says. Smith has a strong buy on Concurrent and a buy on SeaChange; his firm hasn`t done underwriting for either.

The MediaHawk Video Server is a high-performance, scalable, digital video server that offers industry-leading performance and provides the most reliable response time achievable in the marketplace today.

The TVGateway IPG has development features that allow it to seamlessly plug into WorldGate`s middleware platform, along with a variety of other interactive television (ITV) applications, such as Concurrent`s VOD, on the Motorola DCT2000 set-top.

The MediaHawk Broadband VOD System is the first VOD service to be successfully implemented, along with TVGateway, onto CableWare. The Acadia-validated integration of Concurrent`s VOD services with the TVGateway IPG is intended to provide TVGateway`s subscribers with access to movies-on-demand and other on-demand digital video services. The completion of this validation process also demonstrates the open standards and simplified integration requirements created by TVGateway to provide cable operators with a comprehensive ITV solution that is easy to deploy.

``This integrated suite of applications from three of the industry`s leading suppliers, Concurrent, TVGateway, and WorldGate, fully realizes the broad capabilities of the Motorola DCT2000 set-top and interactive digital network,`` said Carl McGrath, vice president and general manager of Motorola`s DigiCable® business unit.

Motorola`s DCT2000 digital set-top converter combines MPEG-2 digital video and Dolby® AC-3 digital audio with real-time interactive capabilities, bringing compelling new cable services to interactive subscribers.

``By working with Concurrent and Motorola, TVGateway continues to provide high-quality, integrated product solutions that operators can deploy with greater flexibility,`` said Peter Mondics, senior vice president and general manager of TVGateway. ``The Concurrent-TVGateway VOD solution is now available with Motorola Acadia validation - demonstrating TVGateway`s mission to give our cable affiliates access to a variety of working ITV solutions, fitted to their needs, that can be implemented to today`s widely deployed current generation set-tops.``

Concurrent Computer Corporation, Pathfire, and PowerTV Integrate Digital Asset Management and Distribution System With Video-On-Demand - VOD
Open and Standards-Compliant Integration of Industry-Leading Products Reduces Risk and Improves Operational Efficiency of VOD Business
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 11, 2001-- Concurrent Computer Corporation (Nasdaq:CCUR - news), the industry-leading provider of VOD systems, Pathfire, a leading business-to-business provider of digital media content distribution and management services, and PowerTV (formerly the Orlando-based PowerTV subsidiary, Prasara Technologies), a leading supplier of cable-based, iTV-focused business management tools and iTV applications, today announced that they have successfully integrated Concurrent`s MediaHawk(TM) Broadband VOD System, Pathfire`s VOD Content Distribution System, and PowerTV`s Interactive Services Architecture (ISA) Asset Distribution Interface (ADI) Module. This integration results in a secure and reliable end-to-end asset management and distribution system that is open and compliant with emerging industry standards, reduces both technical and business risks, improves operational efficiency, and lowers the cost of providing VOD services for a broadband system operator.

The integrated and automated asset distribution system is compliant with the AOL Time Warner ISA ADI Version 2.0 standard. Pathfire`s complete end-to-end VOD Content Distribution System includes content ingestion from the content supplier (e.g., motion picture studio) or content aggregator and satellite-based secure and reliable content delivery to a catch server at the broadband system operator`s content management facility. PowerTV`s ISA ADI Module automates loading of content and content metadata (e.g., title, performers, rating, and synopsis) from the catch server to the VOD system. Concurrent`s MediaHawk Broadband VOD System delivers the VOD content on-demand to home subscribers. From content supplier all the way to the home subscriber, programming content delivery is secure, reliable, and automated.

``Without an integrated and automated asset management and distribution system, VOD content is usually delivered on tape by courier with the content metadata delivered on hard copy documents to be manually loaded to the VOD system`s content management system. The manual nature of this current content distribution and management process is not secure, is unreliable, introduces unacceptable risk, is manually intensive, and is a significant cost factor for a broadband system operator,`` explained Jack Bryant, president and CEO of Concurrent Computer Corporation. ``The combination of Concurrent, Pathfire, and PowerTV has resulted in an integrated and automated asset distribution and management system that we believe will help our customers reduce technical and business risks, improve operational efficiency, and lower costs.``

``The integration demonstrates that Pathfire`s VOD content distribution system will fulfill a critical need in the VOD market. Our system provides an economical and scalable solution for managing and delivering content,`` said Michael J. Eckert, Pathfire`s CEO. ``Our partnership with Concurrent has helped us to gain greater insight into the needs of customers in order to meet the demands of the growing VOD marketplace.``

Robert Montgomery, PowerTV`s vice president and general manager, said, ``We have a long history of success developing open Business Management Tools to allow broadband system operators to efficiently and cost effectively operate a VOD business. The successful integration of the products and technologies from Pathfire, PowerTV, and Concurrent demonstrates our continuing commitment to further improve business operations for VOD and iTV deployments.``

Scientific-Atlanta`s Sherita Caesar, vice president and general manager, subscriber network services, will take the stage with Bryant to present a joint tutorial on time-shifted video.

The tutorial entitled, ``Prime Time Any Time,`` will focus on the developments in video content delivery, where consumers control when they view content. With the escalating growth of the digital network, interactive television (iTV) and consumer-controlled services are garnering more attention and will offer cable operators a competitive advantage that will keep their customers coming back. ``Prime Time Anytime`` will cover technologies like Video-On-Demand (VOD) and ``outside the set-top box`` technologies, such as TIVO and Replay. Mr. Bryant`s presentation will focus on Concurrent`s own network-based Personal Video Channel (PVC) service, which provides significant advantages over VCRs and in-home personal video recorders (PVRs).

At the conference, Mr. Bryant will discuss how network-based PVC will impact consumers` everyday television viewing habits and how consumers will experience personalized TV without the dependency of a program schedule. With Concurrent`s PVC service, subscribers will have access to the most effective and economical way to pause, fast forward, and record live television programs. This network-based PVC service provides significant advantages over VCRs and in-home PVRs.

``Concurrent has always been a visionary company. First, with our renowned real-time technology, followed by the company`s quick lead in the VOD industry and commercial VOD deployments; and now, with our Personal Video Channel development,`` said Bryant. ``We have our fingers on the pulse of the broadband digital video market and anticipated the move toward consumer-controlled programming when we began development of Concurrent`s PVC. With PVC, consumers will no longer need to program a recording device or rely on self-programming based upon viewing history,`` added Bryant.

Mr. Bryant has more than 19 years of cable television related experience, including product management, engineering, technical support, and sales efforts in the communications and broadband industry. He was appointed president and CEO of Concurrent on October 27, 2000. Prior to this appointment, Mr. Bryant served as the president of the XSTREME Division, where he was responsible for leading the company`s efforts to maintain its leadership position as the recognized worldwide leader of reliable, high capacity VOD systems and services.
