Due to the omission, an "E" symbol was placed on the Company's ticker symbol by the OTC Bulletin Board, informing the Company that it had 30 days to correct the omission. On April 6, 2012, the following day, the Company amended the Form 10-K to include the omitted information and place the Company back in compliance with all periodic reporting requirements of the SEC. The filing on Form 10K/A can be viewed on the SEC website at: http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1285701/000113626112000193/0001136261-12-000193-index.htm.
The Company is actively working with the OTCBB to have the "E" symbol removed as quickly as possible.
Prior to MMRGlobal's original March 30th filing of its Annual Report on Form 10K, the Company was pleased to report in its earnings press release dated March 29, 2012 that revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased by 45.9% when compared to the year ended December 31, 2010 due to an increase in MMRPro sales, which were up 105%, and biotech licensing revenues, which were up 100%. The Company also saw revenue from investment by customers in private label website development for integration of the Company's proprietary patented Personal Health Record products and services, including Chartis Insurance and E-mail Frequency. E-mail Frequency has advised the Company that it plans on rolling out PHRs to as many as one million member clients in 2012.
Cost of revenue decreased by 8.2% for the year ended December 31, 2011 when compared to the year ended December 31, 2010. Gross profit increased to 161% for year ended December 31, 2011. The Company attributes a significant portion of the decrease in costs to the elimination of certain outside service providers, the development of an internal cost-savings platform and the creation of MMRGlobal Infocom, which now provides operating technology services and website integration and support internally. The cost of revenue decreased primarily due to changes in service providers hosting the Company's products and the formation of Infocom providing services in-house, and the development of the Company's own cost-savings platform(s). As a result, the Company's operating losses were down 51%.
As disclosed in the March 30th filing, revenues increased by $446,660, or 45.9%, to $1,419,648 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $972,988 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The Company believes that the other revenues, which include website development and PHR integration, signal a continued long-term commitment to offer the Company' products and services. Our cost of revenue decreased to $609,212 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $663,372 for the year ended December 31, 2010. Gross Margin increased by 57.1% for the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to 31.8% for the similar period in 2010. Cost of revenue as a percentage of sales decreased by 8.2% and operating expenses decreased 1.0% during the same period.
General and Administrative increased by $181,193 or 4.2% in 2011, as compared to the similar period in 2010, primarily due to higher consulting fees and a non-cash increase in MMRPro amortization expenses. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $257,502 or 9.6% in 2011, as compared to the prior period in 2010, due to a decrease in the cost of radio and TV ads. Technology development expenses were essentially equivalent to those seen in 2010.
Losses were down 51% from the prior year. The Company lost $8,884,427 of which $2,845,222 was cash and $6,039,205 non-cash compared to total losses of $17.9 million in the previous year of which $4,212,300 was cash. Cash losses were down 32.5%.
Non-cash losses were caused by the application of accounting principles to value derivative liabilities and equity imputed interest in the sale of convertible notes, and stock options warrants and common stock issued for services, among other similar types of expenses.
