Exhibit 99.1
CCUR HOLDINGS REPORTS SECOND QUARTER FY19 RESULTS
Company Builds Results from Operations
DULUTH, GA, FEBRUARY 6, 2019 – CCUR Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: CCUR) today reported results for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 ended December 31, 2018. Revenue for the quarter more than doubled on a sequential basis to $370,000. The revenue was generated in equal amounts of $185,000 from interest income on loans and merchant cash advance income. Other interest income and dividends earned from cash equivalents and investments for the period totaled $936,000.
On a sequential basis, the Company reduced G&A expense by approximately five percent as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2019 to $792,000. In December 2018, the Company entered into an arrangement with a leading originator of merchant cash advances (MCAs), purchasing $5 million of participation interests in MCAs originated by this company. As a result of this transaction, the Company established a reserve of $495,000 in accordance with industry historical loss experience, which resulted in total operating expense for the second quarter of $1,287,000.
The net loss for the second quarter was $1,530,000 largely due to a non-cash, unrealized loss on equity investments of $1,529,000. Total working capital as of December 31, 2018 was $50.7 million as compared to $55.3 million as of June 30, 2018.
“During the second quarter, we continued prudent revenue development through our Recur Holdings LLC subsidiary and participation interests in MCA syndications,” said Wayne Barr, President and CEO. “These operations capitalize on our team’s collective experience, expertise and relationships and are designed to enhance returns to our stockholders as we continue to search for opportunities to acquire additional businesses and assets at attractive valuations. Our Recur Holdings subsidiary, which conducts our real estate operations, has made mortgage loans with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $6.3 million as of December 31, 2018 earning a weighted average annualized yield of 10.9%. The $5 million of MCA participation interests purchased in December is expected to generate an annual return that exceeds the mortgage lending returns. Due to the structure of the MCA participations, we already realized revenue from this transaction during the second quarter and are well positioned to build revenue from this activity during the fiscal third quarter.
The Company also announced that it is continuing to work towards finalizing the acquisition contemplated by the non-binding letter of intent announced in October 2018 with LuxeMark Capital, LLC, a company that provides services and leverage to select funding companies involved in MCA financings. “While we continue to work towards completing the agreement with LuxeMark, they were a resource to us in the $5 million MCA transaction we executed in December,” said Mr. Barr. “Should we complete the LuxeMark transaction, we believe the Company will generate additional attractive returns by virtue of our 80% ownership interest in this expanding business,” concluded Mr. Barr.
The Company also reported that on January 2, 2019 it received the full $1,450,000 previously held in escrow as part of the sale of the Company’s Content Delivery business to Vecima.
Stock Repurchase Plan Update
During the quarter, the Company repurchased a total of 133,415 shares of common stock for a total of $496,000 under its previously-announced stock repurchase plan.
