Exhibit 99.1

 

TenFold Announces Q4 2004 and Year 2004 Financial Results

 

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – February 1, 2005 – TenFold® Corporation (OTC BB: TENF.OB), provider of the EnterpriseTenFold platform for building and implementing enterprise applications, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2004.

 

For the fourth quarter, TenFold reported revenues of $1.8 million, an operating loss of $1.4 million, a net loss of $992,000, and diluted loss per share of $0.02. For calendar year 2004, revenues were $17.6 million, operating income was $2.8 million, net income was $3.4 million, and diluted earnings per share were $0.06. TenFold’s net cash outflow for Q4 was $1.8 million and the ending cash balance at the end of 2004 was $5.2 million.

 

“2004 was a solid, foundation year for TenFold,” said Dr. Nancy Harvey, TenFold’s President and CEO. “We made significant progress on our 2004 goals of creating greater awareness and interest in TenFold, establishing our new sales organization and creating a repeatable sales process, and preparing TenFold to absorb growth”.

 

“We expect that our auditors will qualify their opinion on our 2004 financial statements for going concern reasons, since at our recent cash burn levels we would exhaust our cash balances within a few quarters. We are cognizant of their concerns and appreciate that we must generate cash from operations, business transactions, or capital raising to ensure sufficient liquidity for the coming year and to support our growth. We are focusing on selling new, larger license deals with current customers who have experienced TenFold’s value proposition, exploring distribution agreements, and continuing discussions with investment bankers about the possibility of raising capital,” continued Dr. Harvey.”
