Mr. Balbirnie continued, “We will spend a considerable amount of time in the remaining part of 2013 and all of 2014 expanding the Average Revenue Per Issuer (ARPI). The execution of this strategy will allow us to deliver on our growth plans as well as increase our market share in the businesses we focus on. It is our belief we will have success expanding the number and value of services per client, as well as the continued organic success in acquiring new clients.” Mr. Balbirnie concluded, “Overall, the demand for corporate services continues to be strong in the segments we serve.”

GAAP Financial Results

For the quarter ended September 30, 2013, Issuer Direct reported revenue of $2.1 million, compared with $1.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2012, an increase of 73%. Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 increased to $1.5 million, compared to $874,679 in the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Overall gross profit margins remained over 70%, consistent with the prior year.

On a GAAP basis, the Company reported net income of $117,344 or $0.06 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 compared to net income of $213,591 or $0.11 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year. Although gross profit was significantly higher, the Company incurred $88,347 of non-cash amortization expenses related to the acquisition of PrecisionIR, and incurred  $134,409 of non-cash interest expenses related to an 8% Note entered in to with Red Oak Partners to help fund the acquisition. Both of these items had a negative impact on net income but had no impact of the Company’s cash flows. The amortization of the debt discount is recorded as non-cash interest expense. Non-GAAP results backing out these non-cash expenses have been computed below.

Non-GAAP results

The Company generated non-GAAP net income for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013 of $493,838, or $0.22 per share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $300,429, or $0.15 per share, in the third quarter ended September 30, 2012. The Company generated non-GAAP net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of $1,332,692, or $0.65 per share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $602,378, or $0.31 per share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Acquisition

On August 22, 2013, the Company acquired Richmond, Virginia based PrecisionIR Group, Inc., a leading provider of online investor relations and web-based corporate communications solutions to companies worldwide. Issuer Direct acquired all of the common stock of Precision IR Group, Inc. in exchange for cash proceeds of approximately $3.45 million. The  results of PrecisionIR during the third quarter of 2013 further demonstrate that the acquisition will have a significant impact on revenues, gross profits, and Non-GAAP earnings in the future as previously stated. The Company was able to almost double its revenues in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the prior year, although the results only included forty days of revenue for PrecisionIR. The Company anticipates that the growth rate in revenues in the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to the same period of the prior year will be higher than what was achieved in the third quarter of 2013.

Non-GAAP Information

Certain non-GAAP financial measures are included in this press release. In the calculation of these measures, the Company generally excludes certain items such as amortization and impairment of acquired intangibles, non-cash stock-based compensation charges, unusual, non-recurring gains and charges and non-cash interest expense. The Company believes that excluding such items provides investors and management with a representation of the Company's core operating performance and with information useful in assessing its prospects for the future and underlying trends in the Company's operating expenditures and continuing operations. Management uses such non-GAAP measures to evaluate financial results and manage operations. The release and the attachments to this release provide a reconciliation of each of the non-GAAP measures referred to in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. The non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered a substitute for the corresponding GAAP financial statements. (See detail in table at end of this release).
