ISC8 Announces 3rd Fiscal Quarter Results


COSTA MESA, Calif., Aug. 16, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ISC8 Inc. ("ISC8" or the "Company") (OTCBB:ISCI) today reported operating results for its third quarter and first three quarters of Fiscal 2012, the 13 and the 39 weeks ended July 1, 2012.

Results of Continuing Operations for Fiscal Quarter ended July 1, 2012

The following discussions relate to the Company's results of continuing operations after reclassifying the operations of the Company's Thermal Imaging Business as a discontinued operation following the sale of the Thermal Imaging Business on January 31, 2012.

Total revenues for the 13 weeks ended July 1, 2012 were $932,900 as compared to $1,560,900 in the 13 weeks ended July 3, 2011. Total revenues in the first 39-weeks of Fiscal 2012 were $3,432,100, down 2% from $3,508,200 in the first 39 weeks of Fiscal 2011. The decreases in our total revenues in the comparable 13-week and 39 week periods were primarily the result of a delay in expected business to the later part of this year combined with a delay of funded research and development contracts from our government contracts business, in the current periods. As of yet we have not lost any significant projected business, it is simply a matter of timing.

Income from continuing operations of $6,939,200 or $0.06 per share was recorded in the current fiscal third quarter as compared to $4,327,800 or $0.04 per share in the third quarter of Fiscal 2011, largely as a result of a nearly $12.1 million of non-cash gain in the 13-week period ended July 1, 2012 from the change in the fair value of derivative liability related to debt instruments issued by the Company in Fiscal 2011 and early Fiscal 2012. Non GAAP losses from continuing operations increased to $9,043,000 in the 39-week period ended July 1, 2012, from $7,601,200 in the 39-week period ended July 3, 2011, largely due to higher total cost and operating expenses and expenses related to the change in the fair value of derivative liability offset in part by a decrease in interest expense in the current period.

The Company had $3,660,200 in cash and cash equivalents at July 1, 2012.
