Rightscorp CEO Christopher Sabec commented, "We are pleased to report that Rightscorp ended 2013 with a very strong quarter. We attributed our year-over-year growth to our ability to successfully represent copyrights against online piracy. Our mission is to preserve the integrity of copyrighted intellectual property and help content owners monetize their assets. In a short period of time, we have been recognized by leading media partners as a turnkey solution to the problem of online copyright infringement."
Mr. Sabec continued, "We are pleased that our business model maintains strong sequential quarterly growth. We expect to maintain this trend as we continue to increase the number of copyrights that we represent. Rightscorp's patent pending technology and proprietary copyright monetization system identifies repeat infringers and collects payment better than any other solution on the market. Our success is evidenced by the fact that we have successfully closed over 60,000 cases of online copyright infringement to date."
Mr. Sabec closed, "We are currently in talks with the owners of millions of additional copyrights spanning various industries such as film, music, books, games, and software and anticipate these to be foundational catalysts that will aggressively drive our initiatives for long-term growth. Rightscorp delivers results, a fact that is being recognized by more and more industry leaders and media publications."

The year-over-year increase in revenues was primarily caused by an increase in the number of copyrights the Company represents for monetization, which grew from 12,000 on December 31, 2012 to approximately 30,000 on December 31, 2013.

The increase in fees was due to increased fees paid to copyright holders in the period. General and administrative expenses were $1,663,921 for the period ended December 31, 2013 compared to $1,028,438 for the year ended December 31, 2012 due to increased patent costs, travel and other expenses related to securing financing.
Sales and marketing costs were $275,616 for the period ended December 31, 2013 compared to $69,614 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $206,002 due to an increased presence at industry conferences to meet potential clients.

Fourth Quarter Financial Summary
Revenues for its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013 were $155,381, up 194% from $52,739 in the same period last year. The growth in revenues was driven by the Company's ability to increase the amount of active copyrights ingested in the Rightscorp's automated system. This directly correlates to the Company's ability to collect payment for copyright infringement.
