EIS International, Inc. Reports Profitable Third Quarter Results
HERNDON, Va., Oct. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- EIS International, Inc. (Nasdaq: EISI - news), a leading provider of call center technology, today reported results for
the third quarter ended September 30, 1999.
The company reported net income of $426,000, or $0.04 per share, for the third quarter of 1999, compared to a net loss of $2.1 million, or $0.18 per share, for the
third quarter of 1998. Consolidated net revenues in Q-3 1999 were $12.3 million, compared to consolidated net revenues of $13.4 million for Q-3 1998.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, EIS had consolidated net income of $1.8 million, or $0.17 per share, compared to a consolidated net loss of $2.1
million, or $0.19 per share, for the same period in 1998. Consolidated net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, were $39.6 million, compared
to $45.7 million for the same period in 1998.
``We are pleased to announce our third consecutive quarter of profitability,`` said James E. McGowan, EIS President and CEO. ``Our enthusiasm about the
company`s profitability to date and its solid financial position, compared to the net loss for the comparable 1998 period, is tempered, however, by net revenues,
which ran below projections for the quarter. Softness in both new sales and sales to our installed base contributed to the decline in third quarter revenues,`` he stated.
``Our strategy for the balance of 1999 is to increase profitability and stimulate growth through continued aggressive sales initiatives, the enhancement of our product
line to meet evolving market needs, and sound fiscal management, `` said McGowan. ``The dramatic expansion of the customer relationship management (CRM)
market, which International Data Corporation projects will reach $90 billion worldwide by 2003, holds great potential for EIS,`` he said. ``The contact center, which
is often an organization`s first and only `human` contact with a customer, is emerging as a vital CRM tool. As such, designing, enhancing, and marketing contact center
systems that help our customers achieve their CRM goals is a vital part of our product strategy.``
