MacroSolve Announces FY 2011 Third Quarter Results
· 371% Revenue Increase Over Prior Year; Quarter-Over-Quarter Increase of 170%
· Three Consecutive Quarters of Growth Driven by Mobile App Technologies
Okla., November 10, 2011 – For the third consecutive quarter, MacroSolve, Inc. (OTCPK:MCVE) (OTCQB:MCVE) (“MacroSolve” or the “Company”), a leading provider of mobile technologies, apps and solutions for business, announced a significant increase in revenues driven by its patented mobile app technologies. Net sales for the quarter of ended September 30, 2011, rose to $593,000, a $467,000 or 371% increase over net sales of $126,000 for the same period in 2010. This increase was driven by sales of the Company’s software products and licensing, and solution services. On a quarter-over-quarter basis, MacroSolve’s revenues grew by 170% from $219,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2011.
Sales of the Company’s mobile app solutions consisted of custom mobile app development, revenues from software product sales and licensing, as well as recurring revenue from MacroSolve’s ReForm XT™ and Insight™ line of mobile apps.
“This has been a pivotal quarter for MacroSolve. We’ve solidified the shift in our sources of revenue from legacy services and hardware to an emphasis on our patented mobile app platforms. These are higher margin, recurring revenue sources. We have the technology, and the development and management talent to dominate in the mobile app industry,” stated MacroSolve President and CEO, Steve Signoff. “These third quarter revenues do not yet reflect the significant and strategic business development agreements we’ve put in place in Q2 and Q3 with Donald Trump Jr. and The Richards Group, both of which we expect will yield us major national accounts and sales that will create a very positive impact in future quarterly revenues.”
For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, net sales increased to $929,000, by $396,000 or 74%, from $533,000 in the same period of 2010. The 74% increase in revenues was derived primarily from the Company’s software products sales and licensing activities.
The Company more than offset a decline in revenues from legacy services and the absence of hardware sales, which the Company discontinued in 2010 due to low margins. These revenue declines were offset by an increase in software product sales and licensing. MacroSolve’s operational focus is on growing higher margin sales and building execution capability and capacity.
Loss from operations for the third quarter of 2011 was $(535,000), an increase of $119,000, or 29%, from loss from operations in the same period of 2010 of $(416,000). Similarly, loss from operations for the first nine months of 2011 was $(1,676,000), an increase of $490,000 or 41%, from loss from operations in the same period of 2010 of $(1,186,000). In the first three quarters of 2011, the Company invested in hiring product development and business development staff. MacroSolve also invested in financial advisory and investor relations services which were non-cash charges. These staff additions and services support the Company’s continued quarter-over-quarter growth.
Net loss of $(615,000) for the third quarter of 2011 was $99,000, which was 19% greater than the net loss of $(516,000) for the same period in 2010. Net loss of $(1,845,000) for the first nine months of 2011 was $421,000, which was 30% higher than the net loss of $(1,424,000) for the same period in 2010.
