Intelligent Systems Announces First Quarter 2016 Results
NORCROSS, Ga., May 10, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intelligent Systems Corporation (NYSE:INS) (www.intelsys.com) announced today its financial results for the first quarter of 2016 ended March 31, 2016.
For the three month period ended March 31, 2016, the company recorded revenue of $1,647,000, a 54 percent increase compared to the same period in 2015, reflecting growth in both product and service revenue. Net loss attributable to Intelligent Systems Corporation of $937,000 (loss of $0.11 per basic and diluted share) in the first quarter of 2016 compares to net income attributable to Intelligent Systems Corporation of $18,296,000 (income of $2.04 per basic share and $2.03 per diluted share) in the first quarter of 2015.
The dramatic change between periods reflects the gain on sale of the company’s former ChemFree subsidiary in the quarter ended March 31, 2015, amounting to $18,746,000 or $2.09 per basic share ($2.08 per diluted share). As previously announced, the company sold its ChemFree subsidiary on March 31, 2015 and consequently has classified the ChemFree business as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
The company reported a loss from continuing operations of $1,024,000 in the first quarter of 2016 compared to a loss from continuing operations of $670,000 in the first quarter of 2015. Impacting the current quarter results is a non-cash charge of $700,000 included in the line item Other Income (Loss) to reduce the carrying value of an investment in a development stage technology company in which the company owned a minority equity stake. Excluding this one-time expense and other income items, the company’s loss from operations was $361,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, significantly lower than the loss from operations of $669,000 in the same period last year.
“Our revenue growth this year reflects an increasing number of customers for both our licensed software and related support services, as well as transaction processing services for prepaid and credit programs,” stated J. Leland Strange, Chief Executive Officer. “We are steadily building our FinTech business supported by our flexible CoreCard® technology platform and experienced workforce of nearly 250 employees. However, we expect revenue and profits will still fluctuate quarterly in large part due to customers’ schedules and third party approvals that are largely outside of our control but impact the timing of revenue recognition.”
During the first quarter of 2016, the company paid a special cash dividend of $0.35 per common share on February 8, 2016 to shareholders of record on January 29, 2016.
The company intends to file its Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2016 with the Securities and Exchange Commission today, May 10, 2016. For additional information about reported results, investors will be able to access the Form 10-Q on the company’s website at www.intelsys.com or on the SEC site, www.sec.gov.
