NORCROSS, Ga., Nov. 09, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intelligent Systems Corporation [NYSE American:INS] announced today its financial results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017.
For the three month period ended September 30, 2017, the company recorded net income attributable to Intelligent Systems of $1,385,000 ($0.16 per basic and diluted share) compared to net income attributable to Intelligent Systems of $123,000 ($0.01 per basic and diluted share) in the third quarter of 2016. The company recognized $1,868,000 in other income, representing principally a one-time gain in investment income of $1,838,000 on the sale of majority of its minority equity ownership in a privately-held technology company and the release of funds held in escrow from the sale of another minority equity ownership from an earlier period. Total revenue in the third quarter of 2017 was $1,868,000 compared to $2,649,000 recorded in the same quarter in 2016. The Company has previously discussed how comparing quarter to quarter revenue may not accurately reflect activity as revenue recognition policy requires certain completion benchmarks even though much work may have been performed during the quarter.
For the year-to-date period ended September 30, 2017, the company recorded net income attributable to Intelligent Systems Corporation of $1,123,000 ($0.13 per basic and diluted share), compared to net loss attributable to Intelligent Systems of $1,032,000 ($0.12 per basic share and diluted share) in the nine month period in 2016. The change between periods reflects the gain on certain investment sales in which the company owned a minority equity stake compared to a non-cash investment write-down in 2016 reducing the carrying value of an investment in a development stage technology company in which the company owned a minority equity stake. Although revenue increased 16 percent for the year-to-date period of 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016, the company recorded a loss from operations in the 2017 period primarily due to an increase in R&D expenditures as the company continues investing for future growth in the CoreCard business.
J. Leland Strange, CEO of Intelligent Systems, stated, “We are pleased with the continued progress both in customer acquisition and in the build-out of our transaction processing software. We believe our credit management software is the most robust in the market as far as ability to configure parameters for management of complex and flexible credit programs. Looking forward we believe we need to add significantly to our resources and infrastructure to handle future demand, so we plan to stay on course with these investments as we build value for our shareholders.”
The company will file its Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2017 with the Securities and Exchange Commission today, November 9, 2017. 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.
