FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Image Sensing Systems Announces First-Quarter 2016 Financial Results
| · | First quarter 2016 product sales increase approximately 33 percent from the prior year period |
| · | Operating expenses from continuing operations totaled $2.6 million in the first quarter of 2016, an improvement of approximately 10 percent from the prior year period |
Saint Paul, Minn., May 10, 2016 — Image Sensing Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: ISNS) today announced results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2016.
First-Quarter Results:
Image Sensing’s 2016 first quarter revenue from continuing operations was $3.2 million, compared to continuing operations of $3.2 million in the first quarter of 2015. Gross margin from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2016 was 72 percent, a 10 percent decrease from a gross margin of 82 percent for the same period in 2015. The decrease in the gross margin percent was the result of a higher percentage of revenue from product sales. Revenue from royalties was $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared to $2.0 million in the first quarter of 2015.
Product sales from continuing operations increased to $1.6 million in the quarter, a 33 percent increase from the $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2015. Higher period product sales resulted from accelerated adoption of the company’s Sx-300 RTMS product that was launched late in 2014. Autoscope Video product sales and royalties were $280,000 and $1.6 million, respectively, and RTMS Radar product sales were $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2016.
The Company’s net loss from continuing operations in the first quarter was $289,000, or $0.06 per basic share, compared to a net loss from the continuing operations of $251,000, or $0.05 per basic share, in the prior year period. The first quarter 2016 net loss from continuing operations includes operating expenses of $2.6 million, a $282,000 or nearly 10 percent improvement from the first quarter of 2015.
Exhibit 99.1
On a non-GAAP basis, excluding intangible asset amortization, depreciation, and restructuring charges for the applicable periods, operating loss from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2016 was $88,000 compared to an operating income of $64,000 in the first quarter of 2015.
“I am pleased with the improvement in our video and radar product sales during the first quarter”, said Dale Parker, Image Sensing System’s Interim CEO. “We saw a twenty five percent improvement in our radar product sales as a result of growing acceptance of our SX-300 by the market. We were also pleased to see continued year-over-year improvement in operating expense levels.”
“From a product perspective, we continued to invest in our next generation video detection technology. This new technology will leverage all new groundbreaking features and functions to give traffic engineers unparalleled information enabling greater control and safety of the intersection. We are looking forward to the release of our next generation video detection product,” concluded Parker.
Discontinued Operations: Sale of License Plate Recognition (LPR) Business Segment:
On July 9, 2015, Image Sensing Systems sold its LPR business to TagMaster A.B. for the purchase price of $4.2 million in cash. As a result of this sale, results of the LPR business segment are classified and reported as discontinued operations in all periods presented. In first quarter of 2015, the Company incurred a net loss of $899,000 from discontinued operations related to the LPR business segment.

We define Non-GAAP Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations as income (loss) from continuing operations before amortization of intangible assets, depreciation and restructuring charges for the applicable periods.

Our definition of Non-GAAP Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations may not be comparable to similarly titled definitions used by other companies. The table below reconciles Non-GAAP Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, to comparable GAAP financial measures:
