Segment Results
The Company has two operating segments, which consist of Hosted Telecommunications Services and Web Services. Effective April 1, 2014, the Company changed its reporting segments to report the StoresOnline and Crexendo Web Services business units as one reportable segment. The Company revised its segment reporting to reflect changes in how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) internally measures performance and allocates resources. Segment operating results for the prior year has been revised to conform to current year segment operating results presentation and disclosures.
Hosted Telecommunications Services
Revenue for the third quarter of 2014 increased 49% to $1,035,000 compared to $696,000 for the third quarter of the prior year. The backlog, which is anticipated to be recognized within the next thirty-six to sixty months, increased to $8.8 million at September 30, 2014 compared to a backlog of $5.2 million at September 30, 2013.
Hosted Telecommunications Services segment operating expenses for the third quarter of 2014 increased 13% to $2.3 million compared to $2.1 million for the third quarter of the prior year.
Hosted Telecommunications Services segment loss before income taxes for the third quarter of 2014 decreased 7% to $(1.3) million compared to $(1.4) million for the third quarter of the prior year.
Web Services
Revenue for the third quarter of 2014 decreased 60% to $690,000, compared to $1.7 million for the third quarter of the prior year. We anticipate revenue from our web service segment will continue to decline due to our strategic decision to limit our provision of web services to our enterprise-sized customers. As a result of this shift in focus, our backlog has decreased to $66,000 at September 30, 2014 compared to $760,000 at September 30, 2013.
Web Services segment operating expenses for the third quarter of 2014 decreased 55% to $944,000 compared to $2.1 million for the third quarter of the prior year.
Web Services segment loss before income taxes for the third quarter of 2014 decreased 19% to $(217,000) compared to loss before income taxes of $(267,000) for the third quarter of the prior year.
Steven G. Mihaylo, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "I am pleased with our progress, while I would have liked to have seen higher sales growth this quarter it is still very encouraging that our sales trend is steadily increasing. I remain confident that our sales will continue to increase and at an even faster rate. It is also encouraging that we continue to grow our backlog quarter over quarter. I fully expect that the backlog will continue to grow. Another good trend is our network sales hit a high water mark last quarter. This trend should also continue; network sales are a very important component of our business. I am particularly pleased that we again hit a high water mark in dealer sales in Q3. I fully expect that trend to continue to improve. We continue to add highly qualified dealers every quarter; this will be a very important part of Crexendo's sales in the future. We are also expecting to start monetizing sales of our newly redesigned website builder starting early in Q1 2015 through sales to businesses and entrepreneurs."
Mihaylo added, "We continue to work on reducing all costs. We are particularly working diligently on reducing product cost, by a substantial margin, and doing so without sacrificing our award winning technology, products and services. We expect most of the reduction in IP phones cost to take effect by the end of Q1 2015. I know we are on the right track; the excitement we see from our customers who have installed our products and services are very encouraging. We also see a high level of excitement and commitment from our dealer network. This excitement and encouragement is part of the reason I believe there will be continued growth in sales. I think our future is bright, and to protect that future our board has established a special committee to review our funding options, and to negotiate a mechanism where there can be a loan or direct investment in the Company. As you are aware I have committed in our public filings to fund the Company if necessary. I fully expect funding to be completed before the end of this year. I continue to believe in our Company and we will continue to grow the business through our sales force and our dealer network which will lead to profitability and long term growth."
