From Nov 2019 to Nov 2024
MARINA DEL REY, CA , a diversified search marketing firm delivering Web traffic via search-optimized text and video content, pay-per-click and SEO services, today reported financial results for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. Although revenues decreased 35.4% to $4.91 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, from $7.60 million the prior year, significant expense reductions resulted in the Company's net loss narrowing by 62% to $1.54 million in 2007, down from a loss of $4.04 million in 2006. As a result, the loss per share improved from ($0.09) to ($0.03).
This improvement resulted from breakeven results in earnings per share during the third and fourth quarter of $0.00 and $0.00, respectively. Improvements shown in the second half of 2007 resulted from a significant rationalization of the Company's business during the second quarter, which included the elimination of low-performing clients plus a corresponding reduction in Company headcount and expenses. Subsequently, revenues for the fourth quarter grew 5.3% to $1.25 million over the prior quarter. Total revenues were negatively impacted by the second quarter elimination of certain customer categories and decreased revenue from non-core Web properties, although much of this decline resulted primarily from the Company's FY 2006 extinguishment of that remaining deferred revenue accumulated during 2004 and early 2005.
"We recognized the need to qualify prospective clients into those positioned to benefit the most from our products and services, and have been targeting only those companies," said Scott Brogi, Chief Financial Officer. "This enabled InfoSearch to increase revenue over the third quarter, and coupled with further expense reductions, allowed the Company to achieve its first quarterly operating profit of fiscal 2007."
"The improvement to earnings over the second half of the year is a result of financial and operating discipline combined with a modest increase in revenue," said George Lichter, president and CEO, InfoSearch Media. "InfoSearch must now deliver higher growth rates; the Company is actively pursuing complementary search marketing opportunities which may require additional financing."
Q4 Financial Summary
InfoSearch Media reported an operating profit of $24,390 for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2007, representing an improvement from the loss of $294,491 in the third quarter of 2007 and from the loss of $572,429 for the fourth quarter of 2006. Additionally:
Hot Features
Premium
-- The Company reported a GAAP net profit of $180,432, or $0.00 per share
(basic and diluted).
-- Cash on-hand increased by 23.1% during the quarter, partly due to
receipt of a one-time legal settlement.
2007 Financial Summary
InfoSearch Media reported an operating loss of $2.07 million for the year ended Dec. 31, 2007, representing an improvement of 69.6% from the operating loss of $6.81 million during the year ended Dec. 31, 2006.
Revenues from FY 2007, as compared to FY 2006, decreased 35.4% to $4.91 million from $7.60 million. Revenues were negatively impacted by:
-- A reduction in TrafficBuilder revenues as a result of the Company's
decision during the second quarter to eliminate sales to those lower-
performing customers.
-- A reduction of non-core Web Properties of $126,236 in 2007 versus
$1,583,980 in 2006. This decline was primarily a result of $1,354,055 in
deferred revenue being relieved from the balance sheet for which cash had
been received in 2004 and early 2005. The actual monetized revenue
decreased by only $103,689 to $126,236 in 2007 from $229,925 in 2006.
As part of its review, the Company's auditors raised an issue related to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company discussion of this can be found in its 10-KSB as follows:
"Although the Company reduced its net loss to $4,588 for the second half of the year by significantly lowering operating expenses and has increased cash to $787,239 as of December 31, 2007, the Company has historically experienced recurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations... the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon its ability to ultimately maintain profitable operations or secure additional financing. Management believes that its current and future plans provide an opportunity to continue as a going concern."
