NETWORK SIX REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER
AND FULL YEAR RESULTS
Kenneth C. Kirsch, President and CEO
Or
James J. Ferry, Vice President of Finance &
Administration, CFO and Treasurer
February 28, 2000
Warwick, RI: Network Six, Inc. (NASDAQ: NWSS) reported contract revenue earned
for the quarter ending December 31, 1999 of $2,411,718, up 6.6%, or $149,655
from $2,262,063 the same period a year ago. Net income for the period was
$83,700, or $0.00 per share, down $228,907 from the same period a year ago when
the Company posted net income of $312,607, or $0.30 per share.
For full year 1999, contract revenue earned was $10,225,676, down 1.7%, or
$174,303 from the previous year's total of $10,399,979. Full year 1999 net loss
was $1,221,615, or $2,282,621 lower than last year's net income of $1,061,006.
These figures include a one-time pre-tax charge of approximately $3.1 million
($1.8 million after-tax) related to the Company settling its long-standing
litigation with the State of Hawaii. Without the settlement charge, net income
for the full year would have been $623,117 or $.38 per share.
Kenneth C. Kirsch, President and CEO commented, "The last year was disappointing
from both a revenue and a profit perspective. Revenues were down primarily for
two reasons: (1) investments we made in sales and marketing have taken longer to
materialize than expected; and (2) the Y2K `lockdown' caused many of our
customers to put `on hold' numerous information technology (IT) initiatives.
Profits suffered as a result of the lack of revenue growth, the investments we
made in sales and marketing activities and the charge for the State of Hawaii
litigation settlement.
During the year, however, we renewed two significant contracts, one with the
State of Rhode Island, to support and enhance their InRHODES computer system,
the other with the State of Maine, to support their MACWIS child welfare system.
Prior to the close of the year, we were selected by the State of Rhode Island to
support their child welfare system known as RICHIST. We recently signed that
contract and commenced the project. We also assisted several other customers
with the development of state-of-the art web-enabled applications.
We anticipate a revitalized demand for IT and related services that were put on
hold during the Y2K lockdown. Our entire company, moreover, is in the process of
transitioning into the e-commerce space where we believe our future and the
future of our customers lie. Our initiatives include, among other things,
web-enabling mainframe and client-server applications, enhancing websites to
facilitate our clients conducting more business over the internet, developing
proprietary web-based systems for the applications service provider (ASP)
marketspace and leveraging our network services expertise to the rapidly growing
field of internet security. This transition will require continued investment in
the training of our technical staff, significant additional investment in sales
and marketing activities and leveraging strategic alliances and partnerships. We
believe that these investments will position the Company well for the future."

James J. Ferry, Vice President of Finance & Administration, CFO and Treasurer
added, "We continue to strengthen our financial position through operating cash
flows. At year-end, the Company had $2.5 million of cash and cash equivalents,
up from $1.4 million from the same period in 1998. The combination of cash on
hand and the Company's untapped $1 million revolving line of credit provide a
solid financial foundation for the future."
