"We completed the integration of the SmartID division that we acquired in December 2013 into SuperCom and strengthened our position in the E-ID market. We enter 2015 with a strong backlog, enhanced visibility for the future, and growing confidence that we have the right solutions, at the right time, in the right markets. We are well positioned for the future."
Full-Year 2014 Operational Highlights
- New contracts totaling $60 million in size
- Seamless integration of the SmartID division into SuperCom;
- Introduction of the enhanced PureSecurity Electronic Monitoring Suite, giving SuperCom a strong position in the M2M and IOT (Internet of Things) space;
- Introduction of the new secure mobile payments suite, SuperPay, including the SuperPOS, PureWallet, SuperTap, and SafeMoney solutions;
- New implementation of Biometric e-Visa, e-Gate, e-Passport, and Resident Identification Systems to enhance national security while stimulating economic growth;
"During the year, we received $60 million of new contracts including two significant contracts with new customers," Mr. Trabelsi added. "We strengthened our pipeline of opportunities for fast growing vertical markets and in new countries around the globes. During the year we also made significant progress towards transitioning our legacy RFID components business into a solutions-focused provider of products aimed at very specific targeted market verticals. In addition, we introduced a full suite of secure mobile payment solutions that we will initially look to cross-sell to our existing customer base and that we believe will ultimately appeal to a much larger addressable market."
2015 Outlook
The company reiterated its expectations of revenue growth for the full year ended December 31, 2015 to exceed 40% on a year-over-year basis and anticipated non-GAAP EPS in 2015 to exceed $1.20 per share.

Statements preceded or followed by or that otherwise include the words "believes", "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "projects", "estimates", "plans", and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "will", "should", "would", "may" and "could" are generally forward-looking in nature and not historical facts. Forward-looking statements in this release also include statements about business and economic trends. Investors should also consider the areas of risk described under the heading "Forward Looking Statements" and those factors captioned as "Risk Factors" in the Company's periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or in connection with any forward-looking statements that may be made by the Company. These statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements arising from the annual audit by management and the Company's independent auditors.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this release of operating results also contains non-GAAP financial measures, which SuperCom believes are the principal indicators of the operating and financial performance of its business. Management believes the non-GAAP financial measures provided are useful to investors' understanding and assessment of the Company's on-going core operations and prospects for the future, as the charges eliminated are not part of the day-to-day business or reflective of the core operational activities of the Company. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as a basis for strategic decisions, forecasting future results and evaluating the Company's current performance. However, such measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are provided in the schedules attached to this release.
