    EFI Revenue and Earnings Exceed Expectations; 25% Revenue Growth Fueled by Professional Printing Customers

    FOSTER CITY, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) — Electronics For Imaging (EFI)(Nasdaq:EFII), the world leader in digital imaging and print management solutions for commercial and enterprise printing, announced today that, for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, revenues grew 25% to $106.7 million when compared to $85.7 million for the same period in 2003.

    Pro forma net income was $12.3 million or $0.22 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2004, an increase of 76% when compared to $7.0 million or $0.13 per diluted share for the same period in 2003.

    GAAP net income was $11.0 million or $0.20 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2004, compared to $5.1 million, or $0.09 per diluted share for there same period in 2003.

    Pro forma net income is computed by adjusting GAAP net income by the impact of amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, and other non-recurring charges and gains.

    As of March 31, 2004, the company's total assets were $1.0 billion, unchanged from the $1.0 billion reported as of December 31, 2003. Total liabilities as of March 31, 2004 were $351.8 million, down slightly from $358.8 million as of December 31, 2003.

    "We continue to advance our leadership role in supplying professional and enterprise printing customers with the highest quality solutions for improving their efficiency, profitability and customer collaboration," said EFI CEO Guy Gecht. "We are very encouraged by the market response to our latest offerings in applications as well as the strength in our traditional server and embedded businesses."

    The Company also stated it currently anticipates its business momentum will allow second quarter results to be in line with current consensus estimates of $0.23 pro forma earnings per share and $109 million in revenue.

    The Company additionally announced that it is adding the responsibilities of Chief Operating Officer to Joseph Cutts, EFI's Chief Financial Officer. CEO Gecht commented, "We see a great deal of opportunity ahead for growing our business. Joe has done an outstanding job as CFO and he is ready to take on additional responsibilities to help execute our strategy. This change will free more time for our President, Fred Rosenzweig, and me to focus on further developing EFI's product offerings and on exploring and closing more business opportunities."

    EFI will discuss the Company's financial results by conference call at 2:00 p.m. PDT today. Instructions for listening to the conference call over the Web are available on the investor relations portion of EFI's website at http://www.efi.com.

    About our convertible debt

    In the second quarter of 2003, EFI issued $240 million of convertible debentures with a coupon rate of 1.5%. The quarterly pre-tax interest expense related to the bonds is $0.9 million and the related quarterly pre-tax amortization of issuance costs is $0.3 million. Under certain circumstances, our debt may be converted to approximately 9.1 million shares of common stock. During the quarter in which the debt holder has the right to convert, the associated shares will be considered outstanding for that entire quarter, and the full 9.1 million shares will be included in the calculation of our diluted earnings per share. Also, once the debt holder has the right to convert, the interest expense and the amortized issuance costs related to the bonds would be excluded from the calculation of diluted earning per share. The net impact of a conversion would mean a reduction of earnings per share by approximately $0.01 in the quarter the debt is deemed converted.

    Holders may convert their debentures into shares of our common stock prior to stated maturity under the following circumstances: (1) during any fiscal quarter (beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2004) if the sale price of our common stock for at least 20 consecutive trading days in the 30 consecutive trading-day period ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter exceeds 120% of the conversion price on that 30th trading day; (2) during any 5 consecutive trading day period after any 5 consecutive trading periods in which the average trading price of the debentures during the measurement period was less than 97% of the average conversion value and the conversion value for each day of such period was less than $900 per $1,000 principal amount of the debentures; (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions; or (4) if we have called the debentures for redemption. For more information, please see our recently filed S-3.

    About our Pro Forma Net Income and Adjustments

    To supplement our consolidated financial results prepared under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), we use a pro forma measure of net income that is GAAP net income adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses and gains. Our pro forma net income gives an indication of our baseline performance before gains, losses or other charges that are considered by management to be outside of our core operating results. In addition, pro forma net income is among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may be materially different from pro forma measures used by other companies. We compute pro forma net income by adjusting GAAP net income with the impact of amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, and other non-recurring charges and gains. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the second quarter of 2004, the expected amortization of acquisition related intangibles would lead to a $0.05 per share reduction from the pro forma earnings per share amount.

    Safe Harbor for Forward Looking Statements

    The statements: "The Company also stated it currently anticipates its business momentum will allow second quarter results to be in line with current consensus estimates of $0.23 pro forma earnings per share and $109 million in revenue" and "The net impact of a conversion would mean a reduction of earnings per share by approximately $0.01 in the quarter the debt is deemed converted" and "In the second quarter of 2004, the expected amortization of acquisition related intangibles would lead to a $0.05 per share reduction from the pro forma earnings per share amount" are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially, including, but not necessarily limited to, the following: (1) Management's ability to forecast revenues and control expenses, especially on a quarterly basis, continues to be a challenge. Unexpected declines in revenue without a corresponding and timely decline in expenses could have a material adverse effect on results of operations; (2) current world wide financial/economic difficulties continue including variations in foreign exchange rates; (3) variations in growth rates or declines in the printing and imaging market across various geographic regions may cause a material impact in our results; (4) changes in historic customer order patterns, including changes in customer and channel inventory levels may cause a material impact in our results; (5) changes in the mix of products sold leads to variations in results; (6) market acceptance of new products and contribution to EFI's revenue cannot be assured; (7) delays in product delivery can cause quarterly revenues and income to fall significantly short of anticipated levels; (8) competition and/or market factors in the various markets may pressure EFI to reduce prices on certain products; (9) competition with products internally developed by EFI's customers may result in declines in EFI sales and revenues; (10) excess or obsolete inventory and variations in inventory valuation may cause a material impact in our results; (11) continued success in technological advances, including development and implementation of new processes and strategic products for specific market segments may not be assured; (12) timely and qualitative execution in the manufacturing of products may not be assured; (13) litigation involving intellectual property or other matters may cause a material impact in our results; (14) our ability to adequately service our debt and dilution of earnings if the company's convertible debenture is treated on an "as converted basis" for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share; (15) other risk factors listed from time to time in the company's SEC reports.
