PRESS RELEASE
INX Announces Completion Of Review Of Revenue Recognition Matters And Schedules 2nd Quarter Results Announcement and Conference Call For Monday, August 21, 2006
HOUSTON—(BUSINESS WIRE)—August 18, 2006—INX Inc. (Nasdaq:INXI; “INX” or the “Company”) announced today that it has completed its review of the matter of revenue recognition for arrangements with multiple deliverables, as described in its announcement of Tuesday, August 15th, and has concluded that no changes to previously reported financial results are necessary as a result of the review of this revenue recognition policy.
As stated in its announcement of August 15th, the Company is changing the manner in which it presents revenue for the sale of third-party supplied maintenance services. Related to this change, the Company intends to file an amended and restated annual report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, as well as an amended and restated quarterly report on Form 10-Q for its fiscal first quarter ended March 31, 2006, later today.
Having concluded its review of the accounting methods, the Company intends to announce financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2006 at 6:00 a.m. EDT on Monday, August 21, 2006, and then conduct a conference call at 10:30 a.m. EDT that same day to review the second quarter results, the Company’s outlook for the future and to answer investor’s questions.
Regarding today’s announcement, Brian Fontana, Chief Financial Officer of the Company stated “We are pleased to have this review of certain of our accounting practices concluded, and regret that the review caused a delay in our reporting our second quarter results.”
RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR RESULTS:
As announced in its press release of August 15, 2006, the company has concluded that it should present revenue from sales of third-party supplied maintenance services on a net basis, rather than a gross basis in its results of operations. In order to make this change in its second quarter ended June 30, 2006 it is necessary to first amend and restate the Company’s previously filed financial reports to reflect this change. The Company intends to file, later today, an amended and restated Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 as well as an amended and restated Form 10-Q for its fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2006.
This change in the method of presenting revenue for certain contracts on a net basis rather than a gross basis will not impact gross profit, operating income or net profit and no changes will be made to the balance sheet or cash flow statement because of this change. Revenue for all periods will be reduced by the amount of cost of sales for these
contracts, which varies from approximately 8% to 15% of total revenue and will result in increased gross profit margin as a percentage of total revenue.
The table below shows the impact of the change in the manner in which certain hardware maintenance contract revenues are presented in the Company’s results of operations for all periods being restated:
