RA'ANANA, Israel and RIVER EDGE, New Jersey, May 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Mer Telemanagement Solutions Ltd. (MTS) (Nasdaq Capital Market: MTSL), a global provider of software solutions for online digital advertising, telecommunications expense management and billing solutions, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2017.
MTS's revenues for the first quarter of 2017 totaled $2.4 million compared with $3.3 million for the first quarter of 2016. On a GAAP basis, the Company recorded a net loss for the quarter of $(899,000), or $(0.10) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $(224,000), or $(0.03) per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2016.
On a non-GAAP basis (as described and reconciled below), the Company recorded a net loss of $(507,000), or $(0.06) per diluted share, compared with net income of $32,000, or $0.00 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2016.
Telecom revenues increased to $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2017 from $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2016. During the first quarter of 2017, Vexigo recorded revenues of $575,000 compared to $1.7 million in the first quarter of 2016.
Commenting on the results, Mr. Haim Mer, Chairman of the Board of MTS, said, "We continue to execute our plan to return to profitability during the latter part of 2017, as we announced last quarter. We began implementing this strategy in the first quarter of 2017 and expect to complete the process by the end of the second quarter. We have taken further steps to reduce operational expenses in our Vexigo division, to enable Vexigo to concentrate on its core digital advertising business. As a result of these actions, we believe that our ongoing operating expenses will decline substantially in the second quarter."
"The telecommunications side of our business continues to be stable. We have signed two new TEM customers to long-term contracts. In addition, as we announced earlier this month, we released a new version of our innovative eXsight Unified Communications and Collaboration (UC&C) Management Solution, which enables our clients to increase efficiencies and reduce costs," said Mr. Mer.
As previously announced, the Company has received NASDAQ Staff Determination letters indicating that the Company is not in compliance with NASDAQ's minimum shareholders' equity and share price continued listing requirements. The Company plans to submit a plan next week to regain compliance and is currently evaluating its various options to secure such compliance.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures: This release includes non-GAAP net loss and basic and diluted net loss per share. These non-GAAP measures exclude the following items:
- Amortization of purchased intangible assets (net of tax effect)
- Stock based compensation expenses
- Reorganization costs
MTS's management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's results of operations as well as the net amount of cash generated by its business operations. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. MTS believes that non-GAAP financial measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.
