Top Image Systems Reports Third Quarter Financial Results


TEL AVIV, Israel and PLANO, Texas, Nov. 10, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Top Image Systems, Ltd. (NASDAQ:TISA), a global innovator of intelligent content processing solutions, today announced its financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Third Quarter 2015 Highlights:

  • Year-to-date revenues have grown in constant currency by 16% compared to the same period in 2014;
  • Revenues of $9.0 million, compared to $9.6 million in Q3 2014; in constant currency, revenues reached $10.0 million in the current quarter;
  • Recurring revenues represented 52% of total revenues;
  • Adjusted EBITDA* of $(0.2) compared to an Adjusted EBITDA of $(2.6) million in Q3 2014;
  • Signed a multi-year, multi-million dollar SaaS agreement with a Top Five bank in the U.S.;  
  • Signed a $250,000 mobile-initiated enrollment project with an online financing company in India;
  • Pursuing strategic channel agreements with new print services, outsourcing and system integration partners;
  • Launched focused go-to-market strategy and consolidated product roadmap around cloud and SaaS;
  • Increased investment in R&D and marketing, including opening of new R&D center in Germany and sales and marketing office in the U.S.

“While we continue to invest in our core growth markets, our third quarter results were adversely impacted by a few factors,” stated Michael Schrader, Chief Executive Officer, Top Image Systems. “Beyond the impact of typical seasonality, our currency basket declined 15.8% in Q3 2015 compared to Q3 2014; in constant currency our revenues were $10.0 million.” 

“2015 continues to be challenging due to continued market consolidation. While these market conditions have had some short-term impact on TIS revenues, in the long run they are working in our favor,” said Mr. Schrader. “First, we were able to recruit our new CMO Andrew Pery, our new CTO Carsten Nelk and our new President of TIS Americas Bob Fresneda to the TIS Executive Management Team. Each of these leaders brings to TIS years of experience and proven success in our market. In order to capitalize on the business opportunities that have opened up, management is driving its proactive Strategic Global Alliances program in which we have invested substantial resources to expand global partnerships and channel infrastructure and exponentially grow our channel business. TIS stands out as one of the few solid, stable independent vendors in today’s market, a factor that will ultimately work to increase our market share.”

Mr. Schrader added, “During Q3 TIS has made considerable progress in focusing our go-to-market strategy and accelerating investments in consolidating our product portfolio, expanding our cloud, SaaS and mobile solutions for which demand is accelerating, particularly for document process automation solutions for the mid-market. To this end, we have invested substantial resources in both R&D and marketing and sales, including opening new offices in Germany and the U.S., hiring additional engineers and marketing professionals and stepping up our co-marketing activities with our strategic partners. We continue to focus chiefly on the high-growth Americas market, where we are building up our US team and steadily expanding our sales and marketing infrastructure. In parallel we continue to proactively seek strategic M&A opportunities to expand our U.S. footprint.”   

Mr. Schrader concluded, “This quarter TIS has closed new business, expanded our direct and indirect sales pipelines and further refined our business model to increase recurring revenue and expand our U.S. customer base. We have signed a multi-year SaaS contract with BNY Mellon, a Top-Five U.S. bank, which, although not yet evident in Q3 financial results, will increase our recurring revenue in upcoming quarters. To accelerate achievement of our targets, we have undertaken significant changes in senior management, sales leadership and our go-to-market and product development strategies, implementing a global lead generation system and attending more trade shows to generate high potential sales leads. We are confident that these steps will deliver better results next quarter and in 2016 and beyond for the long-term benefit of our customers and shareholders.”

* Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including, without limitation, adjusted EBITDA (which eliminates the impact of interest, taxes, amortization and depreciation expenses, as well as non-cash stock-based compensation expenses and other non-recurring items not part of regular business), Adjusted EBITDA margin, Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) (which eliminates the impact of amortization expenses as well as non-cash stock-based compensation expenses and other non-recurring items not part of regular business) and Non-GAAP Income (Loss) per share. 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' GAAP results provided in the attached financial statements for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015, 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' management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding TIS' performance by excluding the impact of certain charges and gains that may not be indicative of TIS' core business operating results. TIS' management believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing TIS' performance. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate comparisons to TIS' 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.
