This quarter we had multiple customer wins, including Tier 0 wins for Retalix 10, Retalix 10 Mobile Shopper and our Connected Payments solution. Retalix 10 is clearly being recognized by retailers and industry analysts as the leading fully integrated multi-channel store suite available on market today. We also won a large, multi-year managed services program from a large Tier 0 retailer. This is significant in that it is our first managed services engagement and demonstrates our success in expanding the long-term strategic relationships that we have with retailers. We are gratified by the strong interest we are receiving from retailers and recognition from industry analysts and pleased by the progress we saw in the first half of 2012."

Sarit Sagiv, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, said, "Retalix continued its solid financial performance with good results for the second quarter and the first six months of 2012. We again recorded record revenues, good growth in net income and improving non-GAAP operating margins due to our growth in revenues and careful management of expenses. At the same time we are also continuing our investments as we work on further expanding on our market position and strong retailer interest in our innovative products and product-led services. We continue to have a strong balance sheet, generate solid cash flow from operations and have no debt."

Outlook for FY 2012

Sheffer added, "Our focus for the second half of 2012 remains on strong execution and quality delivery on the projects we have won while also working to consistently manage our growth. We are moving aggressively with our sales and marketing efforts to leverage our market position and realize the opportunities that we believe exist today. At the same time we will be continuing our activities to leverage Retalix 10's leadership as the most advanced store solution on the market. In the second half of 2012 we will also be making an investment to grow our headcount to ensure successful delivery on our customer wins and that we are consistently providing innovation and value to our customers."

"Our revenues are trending to the high-end of our guidance of $260 to $270 million for 2012. We also continue to expect improved operating margins versus 2011. Our target is 9 to 10 percent Non-GAAP operating margins for 2012 as we also continue our investments to deliver on our new wins and further build our traction in the markets."

** We calculate Non-GAAP Operating Margin by dividing Non-GAAP Operating income (reconciled to GAAP operating income above) by revenues. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2012, this resulted in a Non-GAAP Operating Margin of 9.9% and 9.6%, respectively, calculated as follows: $6,738/$68,226 = 9.9% and  $12,901/$133,890 = 9.6%.
