Enterprising Service Solutions Group Multivendor Services
"The continuing strong performance of Multivendor Services is
highlighted by an increase in revenues for the fourth quarter of $7.5
million, or 38.9%, over the prior year. This business' growth
reflects the effects of the first quarter 1995 business acquisition
of Harris Adacom Network Services, Inc. and an expanding Multivendor
business with such customers as Canon, Motorola, IBM, and DEC. This
growth has allowed us to expand our capabilities in the client server
environment, grow our depot repair business and offer unique
professional services. We expect our Multivendor Services business
to demonstrate continued growth in the future."
Integrated Network Services
"Our newest business group contributed revenues of $5.6 million
for the fourth quarter and $24.1 million for this year. Performance
this quarter is lower than the third quarter due to a large one time
contract with a Canadian company as well as accelerated installations
in Nasdaq. We are focusing on building a strong foundation for
growth in this business. During the initial growth phase and due to
large contract value and long selling cycles, revenue may grow at an
uneven rate in this business segment."
Document Solutions Group
"Revenues increased $2.2 million, or 5.6%, over the fourth quarter
of 1994 as a result of continued strong sales of our high speed
serial matrix and shuttle matrix line printers. Additionally, growth
was experienced in the value added market of industrial graphics and
the IBM environment. The Company is continuing to invest in new
product development directed at growing market share in its
selectively chosen markets."
Mr. Winn added "During the fourth quarter we formed a unique
strategic business and operations partnership with OGDEN Services
Corporation. This interdependent partnership capitalizes on shared
infrastructure, purchasing leverage, technology and manufacturer
know-how. Cost savings from this partnership are expected to
favorably impact earnings beginning in the second half of 1996. In
this agreement, GENICOM retained all design rights and exclusive
distribution rights to the product being produced by OGDEN. As part
of the partnership, OGDEN purchased the manufacturing operations and
selected assets of GENICOM'S McAllen, Texas and Reynosa, Mexico
locations. The proceeds from the sale were used to retire debt and
for other general corporate purposes."
GENICOM's order backlog was $47.5 million at December 31, 1995,
down 2.7% from the $48.9 million one year ago. Backlog may not
necessarily be indicative of future sales.
