Dr. Ido Schechter, CEO of Top Image Systems, commented, "While launching our United States expansion and investing in the development of our global solutions portfolio, we delivered solid revenue, increased profitability and a consistent margin with our traditional products internationally. In the fourth quarter, conversion rates outside of the US for legacy products tempered slightly, although our pipeline for deals continues to be strong. The US market has increased our pipeline for our legacy products and we expect it to provide a contribution to sales revenues in 2013. Our presence in this space is bolstered by recognition by Forrester Research as a top technology, noted as one of five 'Leaders' in the multichannel capture industry. On top of that, in the near term, contributions from the mobile market have the potential to be game-changing. Gartner estimated that the mobile transaction market was approximately $170 billion in 2012 with 200 million mobile payment users, and estimates it will grow on average 40% per year to approximately $600 billion in 2016 with 400 million users. The pipeline of deals, variety of viable, revenue-generating use cases and market potential we are seeing for mobile capture is enormous."

Dr. Schechter continued, "Over the last two years Top Image has grown revenue by 44%, an average of 22% per year, non-GAAP earnings by 102%, an average of 51% per year, and diluted EPS by 82%, an average per year of 41%."

Dr. Schechter concluded, "For 2013 we are providing guidance of revenue growth between 13% and 20%, indicating revenues of between $35.3 million and $37.7 million. We expect non-GAAP operating income in the range of $4.6 million to $4.9 million. We continue to believe the mobile opportunity will have a positive, transformative impact on revenue and earnings in the near term with initial revenue this year."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including, without limitation, Non-GAAP Operating Income (which details amortization expenses and non-cash stock-based compensation expenses), and Non-GAAP Net Income (which details the impact of amortization expenses, non-cash stock-based compensation expenses, changes in fair value of convertible debentures and change in deferred tax assets). Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP measures in the tables entitled "GAAP and Non-GAAP Statements of Operations."

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as an addition to TIS's GAAP results provided in the attached financial statements for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2012, and is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The attached tables reconcile each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. TIS's management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding TIS's performance by excluding the impact of certain charges and gains that may not be indicative of TIS's core business operating results. TIS management believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing TIS's performance. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate comparisons to TIS's historical performance and its competitors' operating results. TIS includes these non-GAAP financial measures because management believes they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.
