LAS VEGAS, Oct 17, 2000 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- PurchasePro, Inc. (Nasdaq: PPRO ), a leading enabler of business-to-business e-commerce and exchange-to-exchange technology for companies of all sizes, today announced record financial results of $17.3 million in revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2000 -- an increase of $7.8 million or 82% over the previous quarter.

The net loss for the quarter, excluding non-cash charges, was $4.7 million or $0.07 per diluted share, an improvement over a net loss of $7.1 million or $0.11 per diluted share for the second quarter.

"The company`s continuing trend of record financial results further positions PurchasePro as a leading provider of e-commerce solutions," said Charles E. Johnson, Jr., chairman and chief executive officer of PurchasePro. "As a result of our tremendous business efficiencies, PurchasePro`s gross margins were above 90 percent for the fourth quarter in a row."

"Because of our recurring revenue model, we will begin the fourth quarter with a significant percentage of the revenue generated in the third quarter," said Johnson. "As a result, we are advancing our profitability estimate to the fourth quarter."

Contributing to PurchasePro`s third quarter success was the continued growth of the company`s strategic alliances, including recently announced relationships with companies such as Computer Associates (CA) and Gateway Computer, Inc.

"Computer Associates and Gateway Computer Inc. are the latest examples of large, successful companies selecting PurchasePro to power their e-commerce initiatives," said Johnson. "Computer Associates enables our company to leverage CA`s 3,000 member sales force while Gateway puts us on millions of its desktops shipped to small and mid-sized businesses, furthering our goal to educate businesses about e-commerce. These alliances give us direct access to hundreds of thousands of potential new customers."

PurchasePro also launched PurchasePro Anywhere(TM), the company`s wireless solution for its more than 30,000 global marketplace members. PurchasePro Anywhere(TM) enables members to access purchase orders and requests for quotes instantly on their wireless devices without having to log on to the Internet.

"The company`s third quarter performance validates the strength and unique nature of our business model," said Johnson. "We have exceeded all expectations with our results, including analysts` estimates of 45 percent sequential growth."

PurchasePro`s existing relationships with America Online, Sprint, and Office Depot remain strong and continue to provide the company with recurring revenue and substantial financial returns. PurchasePro further strengthened its customer base during the third quarter, adding more than 5,000 businesses to the company`s global network.

"As we continue to partner and maximize our relationships with industry leaders, we are realizing our overall corporate strategy," said Johnson. "CA`s worldwide operations cater to mid- and large-sized businesses, while Gateway extends our reach to mid-sized and small businesses. At the same time, AOL and Office Depot enable us to distribute our e-commerce products to the mass market."

During the quarter, PurchasePro delivered 49 private label marketplaces and added 5,311 individual companies to the network. A full 43 percent of the companies added during the quarter signed on directly through the Internet. Additionally, the company added 47,094 desktops to the network, increasing the base by 134 percent.


Additional Significant Third Quarter Events

-- The company announced the sale of 22 private label
e-marketplaces and 27 reseller marketplace licenses during
the quarter, bringing the number of these marketplaces to
more than 240.

-- PurchasePro and Netscape launched their co-developed
business-to-business site to provide business users of all
AOL brands with a complete electronic commerce solution
powered by PurchasePro.

-- PurchasePro implemented a reseller program that will focus
on new channel growth and continue to drive quarter over
quarter revenue.

-- PurchasePro and Hilton International launched an
e-Procurement solution aggregating the Hilton procurement
spend in their properties nationwide, with more than 60 of
these properties currently up and running.

-- For the nine month period ended September 30, 2000,
revenue rose to $31.4 million from $3.4 million a year
ago, an increase of 938 percent.

DAS HÖRT SICH DOCH SEHR FEIN AN

[Pitu]

erwartet: - 0,17 $
erreicht: - 0,07 $
börsenschluß: 40,25 $
nachbörslich: 38,75 $

was mir an der bewertung dieses eigetlich guten unternehmens nicht gefällt:
einer marktkapitalisierung von 2,59 milliarden $ steht ein umsatz von gerade einmal 17,3 millionen $ im vergangenen quartal gegenüber.
das steht für mich in keiner relation.

[SIR-B2B]

Find ich nicht Pitu.
Aufs Jahr hochgerechnet sind das ca. 70 Mio. bei 200% Wachstum können wir nächstes Jahr 210 Mio. sehen,
das wäre ein KUV von knapp 12, das ist nicht soo viel. Allerdings gefällt mir CMRC noch deutlich besser.

gruß sir-b2b

[dosto]

ich habe 33$ als nachbörse.

die aktie ist vielleicht 15-20$ wert

[goodi]

hallo,

bei einem geschätzten umsatzwachstum pro quartal von ca. 50% würde
ppro nächstes jahr im 4. quartal über 100 millionen umsatz haben bei eingefahrenen gewinnen. rechnen wir noch die marktführerschaft bei kleinen und mittleren unternehmen dazu, kann man sich eine marktkap. von 6-8 milliarden vorstellen. (arba hat ca. 25 milliarden bei 135 mill. umsatz und ausgeglichenem ergebnis) das wäre für ppro eine verdrei-bis verviefachung. man kann sich aber auch eine marktkap. ähnlich wie cmrc heute haben.(bedenkt: dann mehr umsatz wie c1 mit gewinn und marktführerschaft bei kleinen bis mittleren unternehmen !)
das wäre etwa eine verfünf-bis versechsfachung bis ende nächsten jahres.(10-13 milliarden marktkap.)
ich bleibe drin.hier brauch man geduld und nicht täglich auf die kurse starren,wenn man keine nerven hat. das könnte eine perle werden!!
