NORCROSS, Ga., Aug. 14, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intelligent Systems Corporation (NYSE MKT:INS) announced today its financial results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015.
For the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2015, the company recorded net income attributable to Intelligent Systems Corporation of $17,504,000 ($1.97 per basic share and $1.95 per diluted share), compared to a net loss attributable to Intelligent Systems of $452,000 ($0.05 per basic and diluted share) in the six month period in 2014. The dramatic change between periods reflects the gain on sale of the company's former ChemFree subsidiary on March 31, 2015.
For the three month period ended June 30, 2015, the company recorded net loss attributable to Intelligent Systems of $793,000 ($0.09 per basic and diluted share) compared to net income attributable to Intelligent Systems of $132,000 ($0.02 per basic and diluted share) in the second quarter of 2014. Despite a 25 percent increase in revenue in the second quarter of 2015 as compared to the same quarter last year, the company recorded a loss in the second quarter of 2015 in large part due to higher G&A expenses. In 2014, a significant component of corporate G&A expenses was charged to our former ChemFree subsidiary for services provided by the corporate office. Following the sale of ChemFree in March 2015, corporate activities and resources (and the associated expense) have been re-focused on our continuing operations, primarily the CoreCard business and strategic initiatives, resulting in higher G&A expenses for continuing operations in 2015.
As previously announced, the company sold its ChemFree subsidiary on March 31, 2015 for a purchase price of $21,600,000 in an all cash transaction. In accordance with accounting standards, the ChemFree operations have been retroactively classified as discontinued operations for the second quarter and year-to-date periods in 2015 and 2014 and the assets and liabilities associated with the ChemFree business are presented on the balance sheet as single line items titled assets and liabilities from discontinued operations. The company's cash balance at June 30, 2015 was $18,448,000, not including an aggregate of $3,080,000 in restricted cash shown on the balance sheet that is related to certain escrow conditions of the ChemFree sale. Total stockholders' equity was $22,994,000 at June 30, 2015 compared to $6,578,000 at December 31, 2014.
During the second quarter of 2015, the company completed a modified "Dutch" auction tender offer, repurchasing 230,729 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $692,187.
"The second quarter was different for the company in several respects," stated J. Leland Strange, CEO and President. "First, the fact that the company offered to buy back shares at $3.00 per share in a tender offer and only a small number of shareholders tendered shares at that price indicates to me that most shareholders believe the company is worth more. We concur with that assessment but only time will tell. Clearly, shareholders' equity at the end of 2014 was not representative of the actual value since 90 days after the ChemFree transaction, shareholders' equity was almost $23 million.
"Second, the company now is primarily what is called a 'FinTech' company in that all of our revenue now comes from the CoreCard subsidiary. CoreCard continues to slowly and methodically expand its footprint in the transaction processing arena. While results will not be apparent quickly, we are confident that CoreCard has some unique capabilities in both its processing and licensed software."
The company will file its Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2015 with the Securities and Exchange Commission today, August 14, 2015. For additional information about reported results, investors will be able to access the Form 10-Q on the company's website at www.intelsys.com or on the SEC site, www.sec.gov.
