"Our second quarter performance was driven by the NCR team's ongoing ability to execute on our strategy and our growth initiatives and provides us the confidence to increase our full year guidance," said Bill Nuti, chairman and chief executive officer of NCR. "We continue to capitalize on growing business opportunities in our core industries where our leadership resulted in strong order activity and revenue growth, reflecting increased demand in our core solutions both domestically and internationally. Our recently-announced plan to acquire Radiant Systems will extend that core by moving us into a leadership position in a third vertical that is exceptionally complementary to our financial and retail businesses and that offers compelling growth potential. At the same time, we're extending our lead in emerging industries like Telecom and Technology and Travel. And we're extremely well-positioned in our Entertainment business while also exploring partnerships or other alternatives for our DVD kiosk operations."

Second-Quarter 2011 Business Highlights

In the second quarter of 2011, NCR further advanced the deployment and introduction of self-service solutions across its core and emerging industries. The following are NCR's second quarter business highlights:

In the financial services segment, NCR continues to advance its Scalable Deposit Module (SDM) technology with more customers, shape the future of consumer transactions, and drive penetration of its APTRA™ solutions.

A number of major ATM networks completed their certification testing of SDM, establishing the new technology as compatible with key software systems. NCR is in the process of completing the certification testing process with additional networks and has received orders for nearly 7,000 SDM units since the product was introduced in October of 2010.

NCR has also taken steps to drive the future of ATM technology and bank branch transformation. NCR announced the global launch of the next generation of NCR Financial Kiosk - the SelfServ™ 4 and the SelfServ™ 8 - which offer consumers the convenience of bypassing teller lines and quickly completing typical branch transactions such as account opening, account maintenance and financial products research and purchase.

NCR also recently integrated two-way video conferencing into its multi-function SelfServ™ 32 ATMs which allows consumers to video conference with live, remote bank tellers directly from the ATM. The technology enables financial institutions to offer up to 24 hour access to teller services, build new small-footprint branches, and provide teller services in areas not served by branches.

In addition, Broadway Bank, a $2.3 billion financial institution serving south central Texas, will deploy NCR SelfServ™ ATMs to replace currently installed machines and will utilize NCR Solidcore for APTRA™ as well as NCR's second line hardware and software maintenance.

NCR recently announced the rollout of NCR APTRA™ Cash Connect 6.0, software designed to help financial institutions and employees use, monitor and integrate multi-vendor teller automation units such as teller cash recyclers (TCRs). APTRA™ Cash Connect 6.0 supports all major teller automation units (TAU) in the market today.

HDFC Bank, India's second largest private bank, earned a 2011 Celent Model Bank Award for its customer experience which was created through the implementation of NCR APTRA™ eMarketing solution. The advanced marketing software enabled HDFC Bank to personalize self-service experiences while delivering targeted and consistent messages through multiple channels including ATM, email, Internet, mobile and call centers.

VTB Bank, one of the leading providers of financial services in Russia, implemented the NCR APTRA Relate™ software to extend the functionality of their ATMs and create marketing campaigns based on customer data taken from their CRM system. The software will help VTB engage in personalized dialogue with its more than 300,000 customers and sell additional financial products.

In the retail space, Wine Country Gift Baskets a leading retailer of online gift baskets, signed a multi-year renewal of NCR's APTRA™ eMarketing solution which enables synchronized customer communications across multiple channels. NCR also announced a new software release (7.0) of its Advanced Checkout Solution with enhancements that will help grocers increase business agility, lower operating costs and provide an improved shopping experience for customers.

In its June 2011 report titled "Global EPOS and Self-Checkout 2011," Retail Banking Research (RBR) ranked NCR as the global market leader in the rapidly growing self-checkout market. According to the report, NCR is by far the world's largest self-checkout supplier in terms of both installed base and shipments.

In the Entertainment business, NCR is installing more than 800 BLOCKBUSTER Express®-branded movie kiosks at Food Lion grocery stores across 11 states in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic. The kiosks will also be available at other Delhaize America supermarkets, including Bottom Dollar Food, Harveys and Reid's grocery stores.

NCR continued to advance its self service technologies across its emerging industries. NCR and Frontier Airlines announced the roll-out of 75 NCR TouchPort™ 70 kiosks to an additional 14 airports across the U.S. The deployment expands the existing footprint of Frontier Airlines' kiosks, facilitating quick and convenient self-service check-in and other flight related services. In addition, Copa Airlines, one of Latin America's leading carriers, has launched mobile check-in and boarding pass delivery technologies from NCR which will allow Copato continue to enhance its customers' travel experiences.

In the healthcare business, NCR strengthened its product line through the selection of Electronic Payment Exchange (EPX) as its preferred payment provider. The integration of EPX's technology with NCR MediKiosk and NCR Patient Portal self-service solutions can help healthcare organizations lower transaction fees by streamlining the number of payment providers. During the quarter, Conifer and Blair Medical Associates became the first customers to integrate this single-source payment capability.

NCR's global services business and its commitment to fulfilling customer needs continue to receive third party recognition. Gartner ranked NCR as the global market share leader in retail industry product support for 2010 based on product support revenue in their March 31, 2011 report "Market Share Analysis: IT Services, Worldwide, 2010." Gartner also reported that NCR ranked third worldwide in financial services product support revenue and tenth worldwide across all vertical markets in hardware maintenance and support revenue in 2010. In addition, NCR recently reached its highest ranking to date (8th overall) in the 2011 Global Outsourcing 100® rankings awarded by the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals® (IAOP®). NCR demonstrated excellence in evaluation categories including global presence, customer references, company recognitions and certifications, employee management and executive leadership.
