I.D. SYSTEMS AND TOYOTA DEALER ROLL OUT WIRELESS VEHICLE MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY FOR U.S. RETAILER

Woodcliff Lake, NJ, October 14, 2014—I.D. Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDSY), a leading provider of wireless M2M asset management solutions, has received a series of purchase orders from Toyota Forklifts of Atlanta to roll out I.D. Systems’ Powerfleet® wireless vehicle management system (VMS) on a fleet of lift trucks for a leading U.S. specialty retailer. After implementation, the retailer will have deployed Powerfleet in 18 retail and distribution sites, with another 17 sites slated for deployment over the next 12 months. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Toyota Forklifts of Atlanta distributes several leading brands of industrial vehicles, including Toyota Industrial Equipment, the world’s largest lift truck manufacturer.
The version of Powerfleet being deployed leverages the retailer’s existing Wi-Fi network to communicate wirelessly with the lift trucks at each site, while the system’s software and data are cloud-hosted in a secure I.D. Systems data center. Data reports are delivered automatically via email. Users can also access the system software as needed via Internet browser. As a result, the system requires virtually no support from the retailer’s IT organization.
“These orders are significant on several levels,” said Kenneth Ehrman, I.D. Systems’ chairman and CEO. “First, this is another example of a business rolling out VMS across its enterprise, based on compelling quantitative and qualitative value. Second, these orders reflect the growth in importance of I.D. Systems’ strategic partnerships with forklift dealers. Finally, our cloud-hosted solution represents a rapidly growing trend of deploying VMS as a service, with lower costs and fewer administrative duties for the customer.”

I.D. SYSTEMS AWARDED PATENT FOR VEHICLE IMPACT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Woodcliff Lake, NJ, August 11, 2014 — I.D. Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDSY), a leading provider of wireless M2M asset management solutions, has been awarded United States patent number 8,762,009 for an automatic method of sensing, recording and reporting vehicle impacts. The patent is applicable to all of the company’s business segments: vehicle management systems (VMS) for industrial trucks, rental fleet management systems, and transportation asset management systems for trailers, containers, chassis and other cargo assets.
“We believe this patent gives our solutions a significant advantage over our competitors and will help I.D. Systems extend its market leadership,” said Kenneth Ehrman, I.D. Systems’ chairman and CEO. “In the VMS market, reducing the risks and costs of industrial truck accidents is often a key factor in our customers’ return on investment, and we include impact management as a standard feature in our VMS implementations. In the rental fleet market, impact management can help rental companies identify vehicle damage—a significant cost when undetected—and charge customers back if needed. Similarly, in the transportation asset market, impact management helps identify collisions and damage that might otherwise be overlooked. Beyond our core markets, we believe our impact sensing patent is relevant in any application where end users are concerned with detecting impacts on mobile assets.”
I.D. Systems has more than 75 patents issues and pending related to its wireless M2M asset management systems.
Application Example: Industrial Trucks
Industrial truck safety infractions are perennially among the top 10 violations cited by the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) , and industrial vehicle accidents are a common concern in manufacturing facilities, distribution centers and other supply chain environments.
When installed on industrial trucks, most impact sensors must be manually configured, tested and adjusted over time to find a fixed threshold that generates an acceptable volume of impact “events.” This process is labor intensive and results in an arbitrary threshold of questionable value. In contrast, I.D. Systems’ patented impact management system automatically sets and adjusts itself, and quickly determines what activity is within a normal range for each vehicle and what activity constitutes an actual impact event. This reduces the cost and effort of implementing impact sensing—delivering immediate value for the end user—and provides a more realistic, less arbitrary definition of what constitutes a true impact event.

I.D. SYSTEMS REPORTS 2014 SECOND QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS RESULTS

Q2 Revenue Up 22% to Record $11.4 Million; 6-Month Revenue Up 22% to Record $21.1 Million
Woodcliff Lake, NJ, August 7, 2014 — I.D. Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDSY), a leading provider of wireless M2M asset management solutions, reported results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.
Second Quarter 2014 Financial Results

  • Revenue increased 22% year-over-year and 17% sequentially to a second-quarter record $11.4 million, from $9.4 million in the second quarter of 2013 and $9.7 million in the first quarter of 2014. The increase was attributable primarily to increased sales of the company’s industrial vehicle management systems (VMS), which grew 41% year over year.
  • Recurring revenue was $4.5 million, or 39% of total revenue for the period, compared to $4.4 million, or 46% of total revenue, in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in percentage was attributable primarily to the strong increase in product revenue. The company expects recurring revenue to increase over time as it introduces a new generation of products with a recurring revenue-centric model.
  • Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were flat year-over-year at $5.7 million, while research and development (R&D) expenses increased to $1.3 million from $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2013. The increase in R&D was due primarily to accelerated development of the company’s next-generation vehicle and transportation asset management products, including Analytics software.
  • Included in expenses—primarily R&D—was approximately $233,000 dedicated to the company’s “I.D. Systems 2.0” initiative, a comprehensive corporate improvement plan with a total of approximately $2.5 million budgeted across 24 projects, which are scheduled for completion by the end of 2014.
  • Gross margin was 45%, compared to 52% in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease was attributable primarily to a channel partner incentive program that led to a 67% year-over-year increase in channel sales, which have a lower margin than sales direct to end users.
  • Excluding stock-based compensation and depreciation and amortization, non-GAAP net loss was $1.1 million, or $(0.09) per basic and diluted share, compared to $851,000, or $(0.07) per basic and diluted share, in the same period a year ago.
  • Net loss was flat year-over-year at $1.7 million, or $(0.14) per basic and diluted share.
  • As of June 30, 2014, I.D. Systems had $14.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, and no debt, compared to $14.1 million as of December 31, 2013, and $13.4 million as of March 31, 2014.Second Quarter 2014 Management Highlights

Second Quarter 2014 Management Highlights

  • At its annual meeting of stockholders on June 20, 2014, the company elected a new board of directors, including: Michael Brodsky, executive chairman of Selectica, a publicly traded provider of cloud-based software; Ron Konezny, vice president of Trimble Navigation and CEO of its PeopleNet division, a leading provider of fleet mobility technology for the transportation industry; Kenneth Brakebill, a former partner at Morrison & Foerster specializing in intellectual property law and litigation; and Tony Trousset, a founder and the managing member of Atlas Technology Group, a privately-held, Silicon Valley-based provider of financial services to technology companies.
  • The new board of directors appointed company co-founder and president, Kenneth Ehrman, as chairman of the board and chief executive officer of the company, effective June 20, 2014.

Management Commentary
“The second quarter of 2014 was our first full quarter operating under our new growth strategy, centered on the initiative we call I.D. Systems 2.0,” said Kenneth Ehrman, I.D. Systems’ chairman and CEO. “I am pleased to report that we made substantive progress on every aspect of this initiative during the second quarter, which we believe is even more noteworthy than achieving our revenue goal.
“One of our most significant objectives, in terms of potential impact on total revenue, recurring revenue and profitability, was the accelerated development of three new products during the quarter.
“The basic version of our fourth-generation VMS hardware has completed beta testing, the Wi-Fi version is in beta now, and various sensor options will be in beta shortly. We expect that this product will reduce our costs, enhance the functionality of our VMS solution, provide a seamless, scalable hardware platform, and take as little as an hour to install—about 75% faster than our previous generation of hardware. We plan to market this product with a relatively low initial customer investment and an emphasis on recurring services, which should be more cost-effective for our customers and more profitable for I.D. Systems. We expect to begin shipping commercial quantities of this product in the fourth quarter of 2014.
“In the second quarter we also obtained our first substantial commercial contracts—valued in excess of $1.3 million in aggregate—for two new transportation asset management products. These devices utilize low-cost cellular technology to track, respectively, trailer chassis and intermodal containers—two asset classes that we believe represent significant untapped market opportunities.
“Another primary objective of I.D. Systems 2.0 is to make implementing our solutions more scalable across large enterprises, with consistent, repeatable quality. To that end, we established new processes and metrics in the second quarter to improve our system installations and support responsiveness, which we expect to enhance our customers’ overall experience with our solutions.
“In addition to product and process improvements, we believe our recent management changes also bode well for I.D. Systems. Our new board of directors’ collective experience in supply chain asset management, software-as-a-service, and intellectual property protection give our leadership team unprecedented expertise to help address the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead. For example, Ron Konezny, as the head of Trimble’s PeopleNet division, has had a distinguished history providing M2M technology to the transportation industry.
“Similarly, the appointment of Norman Ellis as I.D. Systems’ chief operating officer, which we announced on July 22, 2014, adds 35 years of experience in M2M technology sales and management to our executive team. Norm was a key contributor in making Qualcomm’s Omnitracs division a global leader in over-the-road fleet management, and we believe his addition will help I.D. Systems achieve a similar level of success.
“Although we are pleased with our progress toward the objectives of I.D. Systems 2.0 and our revenue achievement for the quarter, our long-term goal is to realize more sustainable, predictable revenue growth and profitability that is commensurate with our blue chip customer base, our unique technology, and our shareholders’ expectations.”
Second Quarter 2014 Operational Highlights

  • Receipt of purchase orders for initial VMS deployments for new customers with enterprise expansion potential, including one of the world’s largest automotive manufacturers, a Fortune 500 tobacco company, a major airline, and one of the largest truckload carriers in North America.
  • Follow-on business from core customers, including Audi, Caterpillar, CNH, Cummins, Deere, Ford Motor Company, Forward Air, General Mills, Kellogg’s, Knight Transportation, Meijer, Nestlé, Procter & Gamble, Swift Transportation, U.S. Trailer Holdings, U.S. Postal Service, Walgreens, and Walmart.

Woodcliff Lake, NJ, July 1, 2014 — I.D. Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDSY), a leading provider of wireless M2M asset management solutions, has received a purchase order from one of the world’s largest automotive manufacturers—a new customer—to deploy its Powerfleet® wireless Vehicle Management System (VMS) on a fleet of more than 250 industrial trucks, as part of a trial evaluation being conducted by the customer.
“This is an important trial program for us — an enterprise rollout with this customer could potentially involve thousands of vehicles,” said Kenneth Ehrman, I.D.

About Wireless Vehicle Management Systems
A wireless vehicle management system (VMS) helps improve workplace safety and security by restricting vehicle access to trained, authorized operators, providing electronic vehicle inspection checklists, and managing vehicle impacts. A wireless VMS helps reduce industrial fleet maintenance costs by automatically uploading vehicle data, reporting vehicle problems electronically, scheduling maintenance according to actual vehicle usage rather than by calendar or manual data entry, and helping determine the optimal economic time to replace equipment. In addition, a wireless VMS helps improve material handling productivity by establishing accountability for the use of equipment, ensuring equipment is in the proper place at the right time, and providing unique fleet utilization metrics.
