MITEK SYSTEMS REPORTS SECOND QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2012 RESULTS

 

   

Signed 315 financial institutions as of March 31, 2012

 

   

87 customers launched Mitek Mobile Deposit® as of March 31, 2012

SAN DIEGO – May 2, 2012 — Mitek Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MITK; www.miteksystems.com), a leading mobile imaging software solutions provider, today announced financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2012, which ended March 31, 2012.

Total revenue for the second quarter of 2012 was $1.2 million compared to total revenue of $2.9 million for the second quarter of 2011. The decline in total revenue was primarily driven by the decrease in the number of licenses signed for the Company’s patented imaging software products. Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2012 were $4.1 million compared to $2.3 million for the second quarter of 2011.

GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2012 was $2.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to net income of $570,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2011.

Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2012 was $2.2 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to net income of $865,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2011. Please see page 7 of this news release for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures (unaudited).

“Mobile Deposit momentum continues with five of the top eight retail banks now commercially launched and all eight signed,” said President and CEO James B. DeBello. “We are focused on expanding our product offerings, with Mobile Photo Bill Pay™ and others, to satisfy customer demand. In parallel, we are pursuing partnerships in new market segments, such as the prepaid market, where we can leverage Mitek’s unique position to maximize value for our stakeholders.”

The Company ended the second quarter of fiscal 2012 with cash, cash equivalents and investments of $17.4 million, compared to $16.3 million at the end of fiscal 2011.

Such forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, risks that the Company will not be able to withstand negative conditions in the global economy, a lack of demand for or market acceptance of the Company’s products, the Company’s ability to continue to develop, produce and introduce innovative new products in a timely manner or the outcome of any pending or threatened litigation and the timing of the launch of Mobile Deposit by the Company’s signed customers. Additional risks and uncertainties faced by the Company are contained from time to time in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including, but not limited to, the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year September 30, 2011 and its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, which you may obtain for free on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release contains non-GAAP financial measures for non-GAAP net income and earnings per share. In evaluating the Company’s performance, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to supplement financial statements prepared under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures help indicate the Company’s baseline performance before gains, losses or charges that are considered by management to be outside ongoing operating results. Accordingly, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to gain a better understanding of the Company’s comparative operating performance from period-to-period and as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financials, are useful to investors because they provide a basis for meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s ongoing operating results, including results of operations against investor and analyst financial models, identifying trends in the Company’s underlying business and perform related trend analysis, and a better understanding how management plans and measures the Company’s underlying business.
