"Through a series of well-executed and targeted acquisitions in the US and Brazil, we are poised to take advantage of the boom cycle we foresee in cloud-based computing in the Americas," began Nana Baffour, CEO and Chairman of Midas Medici. Our acquisitions of our US operations including StraTech and WeatherWise (now UtiliPoint Analytics) have provided us the scale in the US to support our clients and also enter the high-demand market of data management and security needs for utility companies. Shortly after these acquisitions, we quickly corrected staff redundancy which significantly improved the bottom line and revenue per employee. In emerging markets, like Brazil, we see more significant growth prospects through our August 2011 acquisition of Cimcorp. Brazil is the largest and fastest growing IT market and economy in Latin Americas where companies are in the process of reviewing updated IT systems to better position themselves for growth. These investments by government and private businesses in their IT infrastructure is the primary driver for Cimcorp's growth in 2011 which we still forecast for another year of increased sales and contracts in 2012." FY 2011 Data Center Services Revenues Midas Medici's data center services are comprised primarily of hosting, bandwidth, managed infrastructure, managed services, software and maintenance support services. Each of Midas' brands which include Cimcorp, Brazil, StraTech, U.S. and UtiliPoint, U.S. contribute revenues to Data Center Service sales. For the year ended December 31, 2011, sales of data center services and solutions increased approximately 20% to $36.8 million, representing 41% of total sales in 2011. The Company generated higher sales from organic growth and acquisitions. Gross margins for Data Center Services remained at approximately 29% for the year.

FY 2011 IT Infrastructure Services and Solutions IT infrastructure solutions and services include primarily the sale of hardware and software, along with consulting, integration and training services. This Infrastructure when deployed at either the customer location, at a Midas partner location or in the virtual/shared location is  subsequently supported and serviced by Midas during its useful life. Revenue from this after sales service offering is  captured as part of the Company's  Data Center Services revenues. IT infrastructure services and solutions increased 153% from $20.9 million to $52.9 million for the year and maintained approximately 27% gross margins for the year.

2011 Results Midas Medici's consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011 totaled $89.7 million compared to $51.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The sales increase was primarily due to the Company's acquisition of Brazil-based Cimcorp, which occurred in the third quarter of 2011. Acquisitions added $32.5 million in incremental revenue during the last five months of the year, contributing approximately 36% to consolidated revenues and 85% to consolidated revenue growth in 2011.

Cost of sales for the year were $65.0 million compared to $36.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to higher sales contribution from infrastructure solutions, which generate lower margins. Acquisitions contributed $24.1 million of incremental costs of sales. Gross margins were 27.5% and 29.0% for the full year 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011 were $33.4 million compared to $19.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. SG&A expenses increased primarily due to professional service fees related to the Company's mergers and acquisitions, stock-based compensation charges, as well as the inclusion of $13.6 million in SG&A from acquisitions.

Of the US loss before income tax expense of $6.3 million, approximately $5.9 million relates to either onetime expenses or non cash expenses as follows: $1.5 million was related to non recurring expenses for the various acquisitions closed by the Company during 2011, $1.1 million was for non-cash stock compensation charges and stock issued for consulting services and $3.3 million was for non-cash depreciation and amortization - primarily related to amortization of definite lived intangible assets. Our Brazilian operations, which we acquired in August 1, 2011, contributed a loss before income tax expense of $7.6 million primarily due to acquisition related costs of $2.7 million incurred during August to December 2011 that are non-recurring and $0.2 million in depreciation and amortization. As such $8.8 million of the operating costs that contributed to the Company's consolidated loss for 2011 are either non-recurring or non-cash.

In December 2011, the US operations reduced headcount for a total cost savings of approximately $1.0 million and the Brazil operations reduced headcount for a total savings of approximately $1.1 million. The benefits will be realized in 2012.

The Brazil operation has recoverable taxes of approximately $6.6 million as of December 31, 2011, which can be used to offset taxes, including those for purchases of services associated with generating our revenues and certain SG&A items and improve the profitability. In 2011 the Company did not optimize the use of these recoverable taxes.

Reported net loss attributable to Midas Medici shareholders was $10.0 million compared to net income of $12.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. Reported net loss per share attributable to Midas Medici shareholders was $1.28 per share for fiscal 2011 compared to $2.86 earnings per share for fiscal 2010.  Excluding non-cash charges and non-recurring items of $5.3 million in 2011 and a $17.1 million gain from the sale of discontinued operations, a $17.2 million gain on extinguishment of debt, and a $16.3 million goodwill impairment charge in 2010, non-GAAP adjusted net losses were $5.6 million and $5.2 million in 2011 and 2010, respectively. Non-GAAP, adjusted loss per share decreased 41.3% to $0.71 per share versus a loss of $1.21 per share in 2010.  About MIDAS MEDICI Holding, Inc.
