 KIT digital Reports Q1 2012 Results In Line With Preliminary Q1 2012 Announcement
Provides Operational Update and Announces $29.2 Million Capital Raise to Support Global Tier One Customer Strategy

NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 05/15/12 -- KIT digital, Inc. (NASDAQ: KITD), a leading video management software and services company, today reported first quarter results for the period ended March 31, 2012 that were in line with preliminary figures announced on May 3, 2012. The company also reported a number of strategic and operational initiatives in support of targeted growth, improved financial controls and a strengthened balance sheet, including the completion of a $29.2 million common equity placement.

"During my first 45 days as CEO we have conducted a thorough strategic and operational review of our business," said Barak Bar-Cohen, CEO. "Based on this assessment, we have thus far taken definitive steps to support our operating plan and improve financial controls. This includes raising capital to support our updated operational plan and global commercial strategy. Going forward, we intend to sharpen our focus on tier one video management software and services, which we believe will result in significantly higher cash flow levels by the end of 2012."

Q1 2012 Results

First quarter 2012 revenues were $59.0 million, compared to $70.0 million in the preceding quarter and $34.5 million for the first quarter of 2011. Non-GAAP operating loss was $8.0 million, compared to non-GAAP operating income of $16.5 million in the preceding quarter and $7.1 million of non-GAAP operating loss for the first quarter of 2011.

First quarter GAAP net loss was $24.9 million or $0.53 per share, compared to GAAP net income of $0.4 million or $0.01 per share in the preceding quarter and GAAP net loss of $12.5 million or $0.34 per share in the first quarter of 2011. Free cash flow from operations was a negative $12.9 million, compared to a positive $1.3 million in the previous quarter, and a negative $10.2 million in the first quarter of 2011.

Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2012 totaled $26.1 million, compared to $45.7 million on December 31, 2011. The decrease in Q1 was primarily attributable to one-time residual payments of consideration for acquisitions closed in Q4; higher than usual legal, accounting and audit costs associated with corporate development activity; post-consolidation integration costs; and other cash requirements of the business during the quarter, which were in line with previous quarters.

Operational Update

The company has undertaken a number of initiatives that support our focus on providing video management software and services to tier one customers around the world. They include:

• The company has retained one of the Big Four accounting firms to advise on the implementation of best-practice governance and monthly close policies, as well as to provide advice on the ongoing implementation of Netsuite to manage financial controls and processes; and
