COLUMBUS, OH, August 14, 2012 – GlobalWise Investments, Inc. (OTCBB: GWIV) (OTCQB: GWIV) (www.GlobalWiseInvestments.com) and its wholly owned subsidiary Intellinetics, Inc., an enterprise content management (“ECM”) software development, sales and marketing company serving both public and private sector clients, today announce financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.
Financial Highlights for the Second Quarter 2012:
| o | Total revenue increased by 146% to $887,285 compared to $360,328 in the first quarter, and an increase of 52% compared to $582,051 in the year-ago second quarter; |
| o | Gross profit improved to $597,123, a 959% increase over the first quarter of $56,381, and a 64% increase compared to $364,661 in the year-ago second quarter; |
| o | Gross profit margin increased to 67% compared to 16% in the first quarter and 63% in the year-ago second quarter; |
| o | Total operating expenses decreased by 69% to $680,062 compared to $1,148,905 million in the first quarter; up from $421,636 in the year-ago second quarter; |
| o | Loss from operations decreased by 1,217% to ($82,939) compared to ($1,092,524) in the first quarter; up from ($56,975) in the year-ago second quarter; |
| o | Net loss decreased by 639% to ($155,250) compared to ($1,147,873) in the first quarter; up from ($93,039) in the year-ago second quarter. |
The Company’s operating expenses in the second quarter reflect additional costs associated with being a public company and strategic investments in human talent, technology and process assets that we believe help establish a solid foundation for profitable geometric growth in its subscriber base and revenue. Combined, these investments drive cost and cycle time out of the marketing, sales and order fulfillment processes. As a result, GlobalWise is better positioned to be able to harvest demand from captive markets with little additional operating cost and expects expenses to remain relatively stable at current levels as revenue continues to increase.
“GlobalWise’s dynamic approach to the ECM software market is taking hold in 2012,” stated William J. “BJ” Santiago, CEO of GlobalWise. “Two important changes have occurred in the past 18 months that are becoming the catalysts for our extraordinary growth. First, the advancement of our ECM software to a cloud-delivery model reduces our cost of service delivery and time to installation. Second, moving from a domestic direct-sales model to an international Channel Partner strategy has dramatically increased our ability to sell our software to a greater number of clients in a lower-cost manner. Our second-quarter revenue growth of 146% vs. the prior quarter and 52% growth year-over-year is a direct, tangible result of these developments. Simply put, we’re now selling more software faster and have reduced our average sales cycle from a historic 18 – 24 months to 3 – 6 months.”
Since the beginning of 2012, the Company has signed eight new Channel Partners with several potential new partners pending. In 2011, 14 new Channel Partners were signed. The increase in sales capacity is driving significant and consistent revenue growth, and the trend is expected to continue throughout 2012 and beyond.

Fiscal Year 2012 Guidance:
Based upon the Company’s current sales funnel and recent Channel Partner activity, GlobalWise currently expects to exceed $3.3 million in annual revenue in 2012 vs. $1.7 million in 2011. Management anticipates exiting 2012 at an annualized revenue run rate for 2013 in excess of $5.0 million, as existing Channel Partners increase their sales and marketing efforts and new Channel Partners are added. GlobalWise expects to be increasingly well positioned for growth and profitability in future periods as projected revenues increase, operating expenses continue to decline as a percentage of revenue, and the cost of continuing as a public company normalizes.
“Our sales funnel is growing steadily with qualified clients through our Channel Partner eco-system,” added Mr. Santiago. “The Channel Partners need a cloud-based ECM solution to complement their product strategy and increase the number of value added services provided to clients. We strategically choose partners who sell enterprise software, consulting services or office equipment focused around document management. We can quickly train them on our template based ECM software and/or how to integrate the software into their existing business application software or hardware products. This new sales strategy allows us to focus on what we do best – software engineering, support and cloud services delivery – and allows our partners to do what they do best – demand generation for industry leading business software solutions.”
