Commenting on the results, Chief Executive Officer John Rade noted, "During the
first half of 2001, AXS-One recognized that the economy was weak and took
concerted actions during the second quarter to return the Company to
profitability by bringing expenses in line with anticipated revenue. The effort
paid off and I'm pleased to report that for the second half of 2001, the Company
had a net profit of $1.4 million and generated $1.8 million of cash flow from
operating activities. Services revenue decreased compared to last year due to
several external factors such as the terrorist attacks and clients extending
their holiday leave at the end of the year. " Rade continued, "We look forward
to 2002 as the acceptance of our new e-Cellerator(TM) solutions remains strong
and our economy begins to emerge from the recession."
