NewsEdge and Autonomy Sign Global Partnership Agreement Global Partnership Expands Both Companies' Reach and Encourages Customers To Leverage NewsEdge E-Content With Autonomy's Automated Infrastructure For Sorting and Routing Information
BURLINGTON, Mass., April 25 /PRNewswire/ -- NewsEdge Corporation (Nasdaq: NEWZ - news), a leading provider of e-content applications for business web sites, and Autonomy Corporation (Easdaq: AUTN), a leading provider of technology for automating the handling of unstructured information, have entered into a partnership to sell and market their respective e-content and infrastructure applications to Web portals, corporate intranets, and e-commerce services and business exchanges. As part of the global marketing and sales agreement, both companies will promote and sell NewsEdge's e-content services and Autonomy's automated infrastructure products to their expanding customer bases worldwide.
``NewsEdge customers have one thing in common: They all want to provide access to the best information resources. By deploying Autonomy's automated infrastructure for sorting, linking, personalizing and routing information, they will be able to accomplish that goal without wasting any time on some of the onerous tasks associated with organizing such vast amounts of information,'' said Cliff Pollan, CEO, News Edge.
``There is no doubt that our customers will benefit from the targeted business content that NewsEdge provides to the corporate and business Internet marketplace,'' said Autonomy CEO Mike Lynch. ``And by partnering with leading third parties like NewsEdge, Autonomy continues to expand its sales and marketing efforts into new markets and geographies.''

NewsEdge, through a unique editorial process that marries technology and editorial specialists, delivers targeted, highly relevant external business information from hundreds of high quality, authoritative sources to public, enterprise and extranet web sites. The NewsEdge Insight(TM) offering was the recent winner of the 1999 Personal Information Product Award sponsored by Information Age.
Autonomy's technology analyzes and ranks the ideas within any piece of text, regardless of its language or format.

Ian Black, Head of Corporate Communications and Public Affairs at BAe Systems, said: ``NewsEdge has enabled us to manage external news and information from the world's most valued sources.

NewsEdge Announces Q1 Results, New Strategy -- Focuses Company Resources on eContent Market
New eTopics Product Captures More than 60 New Customers in Limited Release
BURLINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 9, 2000-- NewsEdge Corporation (Nasdaq: NEWZ) today announced first quarter financial results and a strategic realignment that dramatically broadens its focus from serving knowledge workers in Global 2000 corporations to providing digital eContent to over 2.5 million business oriented Web sites worldwide. This global plan capitalizes on the firm's media partnerships, technology, editorial expertise and international sales and support infrastructure to provide targeted business content applications that make corporate intranets, extranets, public Web sites, e-commerce exchanges and portals more effective.
"This is the biggest change in direction in the company's history," said Cliff Pollan, President and CEO. "We have been very successful selling news to knowledge workers for the past decade, and are using that success as the foundation for our move into new markets. Currently Delphi values the eContent market at $13 billion. We will now leverage a considerable portion of our resources to help current clients and other businesses extend their customer and supplier relationships onto the Internet."
Effective immediately, NewsEdge has reorganized its resources around eContent management, developing new e-content applications and adding new sales channels. Nearly half of the Company's resources will now be dedicated to the new eContent strategy.
Mr. Pollan continued, "The Internet economy is transforming the way goods and services are bought and sold. The Gartner Group estimates the market for BXB commerce to top $2.7 trillion by 2004. Accordingly there is vast, unmet need for powering these exchanges with business-focused content that can actually improve the experience and transactional effectiveness of eBusiness."
Strategic Focus on eContent Market
Today's Web economics are driven by a critical business need to build audiences as quickly as possible while achieving profitability. In today's business world the ability to simply attract site traffic isn't enough.
Mr. Pollan added, "NewsEdge is uniquely positioned to deliver vertically targeted content to help Web sites appeal to specialized audiences, foster high frequency usage, and ultimately, cultivate eCommerce. Nobody delivers more targeted electronic content on a daily basis to corporations worldwide than NewsEdge," said Mr. Pollan. "Our years of experience in developing media sources, together with the technology and editorial output from our NewsEdge Refinery(TM) provides us a significant competitive advantage in this attractive new marketplace."
"The next phase of eContent is "contextual commerce" -- the ability to map business content to transaction opportunities. Contextual commerce and eContent work in tandem as integral components in a business's long-term survival and together represent a significant potential revenue opportunity for the company."
Early Success for First eContent Product Offering
NewsEdge's first product specifically designed to exploit this strategic redirection is eTopics (see separate release, ("NewsEdge announces eTopics:Custom Editorial Content Now Available for Business Web Sites") The eTopics product delivers current, tailored business content to web portals, extranets and e-commerce exchanges. Previously available on a limited basis, orders with an annual value of over $1 million of the eTopic product have already been sold to over 60 customers as diverse as Agilent, micronpc, Industry Solutions On-Line, LTD and Purchasing Center.com. When adding these new product results to the company's existing efforts, NewsEdge's total eContent sales already exceed $3 million in annual contract value today.
With eTopics, companies can select topics from NewsEdge's extensive editorial library of 1,500 business-oriented topics. Each topic is fully incorporated into the site, providing visitors with the day's top stories in headline and brief format. Visitors can choose to delve into the full text article by clicking on the title. Each morning the site is stocked with fresh content from over 200 respected global information sources, including The Associated Press, Phillips, American Health Consultants, IDG (InfoWorld) and Bridge.
First Quarter Financial Results
NewsEdge today also announced its financial results for its first quarter of 2000 ended March 31, 2000. Reflecting one-time expenses of $1,368,000 related to retention payments, transaction costs and expenses incurred as part of the terminated acquisition of NewsEdge by Rowecom, Inc. and $2,066,000 related to asset write-offs and reserves associated with the Company's transition to its aforementioned eContent strategy, the Company reported a net loss from continuing operations of $7,132,000, or $0.40 per share, compared to a net loss of $1,257,000, or $0.07 per share, in the 1999 first quarter. The Company expects to incur an additional $550,000 in retention payments related to the Rowecom transaction in the second quarter of 2000. After giving effect to a $5,494,000 gain on the sale of its 80% equity interest in Individual.com, Inc. in February, net of operating losses, the Company reported a net loss of $3,497,000, or $0.20 per share, compared to a net loss of $3,185,000, or $0.18 per share, in the first quarter of 1999.
Excluding the non-recurring items, the gain on the sale of Individual.com and operating losses from the discontinued business segment, NewsEdge would have reported a net loss from continuing operations of $3,698,000, compared to a net loss of $1,257,000 in the year ago first quarter. Revenue for the first quarter of 2000 totaled $17,329,000, compared to $18,360,000 in the year ago quarter, which includes $641,000 related to discontinued product lines. Excluding harvested revenue, comparable revenue for the first quarter of 1999 was $17,719,000.
"NewsEdge is leveraging its core assets to enter an exciting new market ," said NewsEdge CFO Ron Benanto. "With approximately $17 million in cash, and the continuing receipt of proceeds from the sale of Individual.com and a debt free balance sheet, we are well capitalized to pursue this opportunity and are squarely focused on enhancing shareholder value."
