Integrated Management Information (IMI Global) Reports Continued Profitable Growth for Third Quarter and Nine-Month Period
Third quarter revenue up 24% to a record $1.5 million from $1.3 million
Nine-month revenue up 24% to a record $4.0 million from $3.2 million
Where Food Comes From® program continues to grow with legendary steakhouse Delmonico’s New York the latest to adopt Company’s flagship brand
CASTLE ROCK, Colo. – Integrated Management Information, Inc. (d.b.a. IMI Global, Inc.) (OTCQB: WFCF), a leading provider of verification and Internet solutions for the agricultural/livestock industry under the Where Food Comes From® brand, today announced record revenue and continued profitability for its third quarter and nine-month period ended September 30, 2012.
“In addition to extending our track record of profitable growth and further strengthening our balance sheet in the third quarter, we are pleased to report continued success with our Where Food Comes From labeling program, which added Delmonico’s as a flagship steakhouse customer during the period,” said John Saunders. “Although a higher expense base impacted our bottom line in the third quarter, we are confident that the investments we are making in ICS and various marketing programs are strengthening our foundation and better positioning the Company for long-term, profitable growth.”
In February of 2012 IMI Global acquired controlling interest in International Certification Services, Inc. (ICS), a leading provider of organic and sustainable certification services to agricultural operations and the food industry. The acquisition strengthened IMI Global’s solutions portfolio and is expected to contribute to continued year-over-year revenue growth. The Company will continue to evaluate opportunities to acquire complementary businesses.
Third Quarter Results
Revenue in the third quarter increased 24% to a record $1,545,200 from revenue of $1,250,100 in the third quarter a year ago. It was the Company’s 11th consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth. Verification services revenue increased 39% to $1,237,200 from $892,400 in the third quarter last year. This increase was attributable to the addition of revenue from ICS’ organic and gluten free services. Age and source verification revenue declined 18% in the third quarter due to uncertainty surrounding Japanese export market requirements, but was partially offset by a 15% increase in revenue from the Company’s Non-Hormone Treated Cattle (NHTC) and Verified Natural Beef (VNB) programs. Hardware revenue consisting primarily of cattle identification tags decreased 19% in the third quarter, to $268,800 from $331,000 in the same quarter last year, due to lower age and source verification activity. Other revenue, primarily consisting of fees from the Where Food Comes From labeling program, grew 47% to $39,200 from $26,700 year over year.
Gross profit in the third quarter increased to $802,900 from $671,100 in the same quarter last year. As a percent of revenue, third quarter gross margin declined to 52% from 54% year over year.
Selling, general and administrative expense in the third quarter increased 49% year over year to $686,500 from $460,400. This increase was attributable to expenses associated with the Company’s ICS subsidiary, increased investments in promoting the Where Food Comes From program, and increased headcount to support various marketing initiatives.
Net income attributable to IMI Global in the third quarter was $63,600, or less than one cent per share, versus net income of $204,000, or $0.01 per share, in the same quarter last year. It was the Company’s 11th straight profitable quarter. The lower year over year net income was due to slightly lower gross margins combined with increased investments in growth initiatives.
Nine-Month Results
Revenue for the first nine months of 2012 increased 24% to a record $3,971,600 from $3,197,400 in the same period last year. Verification revenue through nine months grew by 30% to $3,255,300 from $2,512,700 in the same period last year due primarily to the addition of ICS services revenue. Hardware revenue declined 4% to $626,000 from $654,000 a year ago. Revenue from Where Food Comes From and other sources grew nearly three-fold to $90,400 from $30,700 year over year.
Gross profit through nine months grew to $2,129,800, or 54% of revenue, from gross profit of $1,800,400, or 56% of revenue, in the same period last year.
Selling, general and administrative expense increased 44% for the year-to-date period to $1,755,900 from $1,220,800, due primarily to investments in the Where Food Comes From program and ICS, as well as to increased headcount to support various marketing initiatives.
Net income attributable to IMI Global through the first nine months of 2012, inclusive of an income tax benefit of $363,000, was $730,200, or $0.04 per basic and $0.03 per diluted share, versus net income of $558,300, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, in the same period a year ago.
Balance Sheet Highlights
Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments at September 30, 2012, totaled $1.4 million, up from $1.3 million at 2011 year-end despite the Company having paid $215,000 in cash associated with its acquisition of ICS and having paid down approximately $67,000 in long-term debt year to date.
