Issuer Direct Reports First Quarter 2022 Results

Record First Quarter Revenues, Increasing 6% to $5.3 million from Q1 2021; Gross Margin Percentage Improved to 77%

RALEIGH, NC / ACCESSWIRE / May 5, 2022 / Issuer Direct Corporation (NYSE American:ISDR) (the "Company"), an industry-leading communications and compliance company, today reported its operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Issuer Direct Corporation Logo

Brian Balbirnie, CEO of Issuer Direct, commented, "We have continued to deliver top line revenue growth year over year in both our Communications and Compliance businesses. Our strategic focus remains on investing in our core product set, our operations and in customer expansion to sustain long-term growth."

Mr. Balbirnie continued, "Our growth compared to the first quarter of 2021 was once again led by our ACCESSWIRE newswire business as well as our investor relations and newsroom product sets. Additionally, our traditional annual meeting and proxy business performed well for the quarter. It is encouraging to see margin improvements in our entire business, increasing 5% higher to 77% from 72% during the same quarter of the prior year."

First Quarter 2022 Highlights:

  • Revenue - Total revenue was $5,288,000, a 6% increase from $4,980,000 in Q1 2021 and an 8% decrease from $5,718,000 in Q4 2021. Communications revenue increased 6% from Q1 2021 and decreased 8% from Q4 2021. The increase in Communications revenue from Q1 2021was primarily due to an increase in revenue from our ACCESSWIRE product, partially offset by a decrease in revenue from our events and webcasting business. The decrease in Communications revenue from Q4 2021 was primarily driven by decreased demand from our events and webcasting business and slightly lower volume from our ACCESSWIRE business. Communications revenue remained 64% of total revenue for Q1 2022 and Q1 2021. Revenue from our Compliance business increased 6% from Q1 2021 and decreased 7% from Q4 2021. The increase from Q1 2021 was due to an increase in revenue from our print and proxy fulfillment services driven by an increase in projects, partially offset by a decrease in our transfer agent services due to less corporate actions and a decline in our legacy ARS business due to customer attrition. The decrease from Q4 2021 was due to a decrease in revenue from compliance services due to seasonality and transfer agent services due to less corporate actions.
  • Gross Margin - Gross margin for Q1 2022 was $4,056,000, or 77% of revenue, compared to $3,586,000, or 72% of revenue, during Q1 2021, and $4,199,000, or 73%, in Q4 2021. Communications gross margin percentage was 78%, an increase from 73% in Q1 2021 and 77% in Q4 2021. The increase in Communications gross margin percentage was due to an increase in revenue from ACCESSWIRE as well as lower teleconferencing costs.
  • Operating Income - Operating income was $688,000 for Q1 2022, as compared to $707,000 during Q1 2021. The decrease in operating income despite the increase in gross margin is due to an increase in operating expenses, primarily due to continued investment and expansion of our headcount, including our corporate, sales and marketing and product development teams as well as an increase in bad debt expense.
  • Net Income - On a GAAP basis, net income was $516,000, or $0.13 per diluted share, during Q1 2022, compared to $545,000, or $0.14 per diluted share, during Q1 2021.
  • Operating Cash Flows - Cash flows from operations for Q1 2022 were $548,000 compared to $1,269,000 in Q1 2021. The decrease in cash flows from operations was primarily due to timing attributed to working capital.
  • Non-GAAP Measures - Q1 2022 EBITDA was $850,000, or 16% of revenue, compared to $992,000, or 20% of revenue, during Q1 2021. Non-GAAP net income for Q1 2022 was $830,000, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to $687,000, or $0.18 per diluted share, during Q1 2021.
  • Stock Repurchase Plan - On March 1, 2022, the Company's board of directors authorized a $5,000,000 stock repurchase plan. During Q1 2022, the Company repurchased 6,200 shares of common stock for $182,000.

Key Performance Indicators:

  • During the quarter, the Company worked with 3,483 customers, compared to 3,511 during the same period last year.
  • During the quarter, the Company had 964 active customers subscribing to our products, compared to 750 customers during the same period last year. The Company defines a subscription as any customer who enters into a contract for a minimum of one year for one or more products.

Non-GAAP Information

Certain Non-GAAP financial measures are included in this press release. In the calculation of these measures, the Company excludes certain items, such as amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, other unusual items and tax impact of adjustments. The Company believes that excluding such items provides investors and management with a representation of the Company's core operating performance and with information useful in assessing its prospects for the future and underlying trends in the Company's operating expenditures and continuing operations. Management uses such Non-GAAP measures to evaluate financial results and manage operations. The release and the attachments to this release provide a reconciliation of each of the Non-GAAP measures referred to in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. The Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered a substitute for the corresponding GAAP financial statements and investors should evaluate them carefully. These Non-GAAP financial measures may differ materially from the Non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
