Achieved Fourth Quarter Net Income of $757,000

SaaS Revenues Grew 18% Year Over Year

Intellicheck, Inc. (NASDAQ:IDN), an industry-leading identity company delivering on-demand digital and physical identity validation solutions, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2023. Total revenue for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023 grew 14% to $5,176,000 compared to $4,551,000 in the same period of 2022. Quarter-over-Quarter SaaS revenue grew 13% and totaled $5,069,000 compared to $4,479,000 in the same period of 2022 and grew 9% sequentially over the third quarter of 2023.

"We anticipate continued growth driven by our expectations from our pipeline and the number of deals anticipated to go live in Q2 and Q3. We believe that we are on the cusp of a number of sizeable revenue generators that will really move the needle in the back half of the year. These include the addition of new retailers with our long standing bank partners, global media companies, auto, title and now crypto currency, our latest vertical. Additionally, we have made important progress in strengthening our organization with the addition of a new CTO, a new leader for our Channel and Technology Alliances, and a new Vice President of Marketing. We remain committed to giving our clients the innovative tools that allow them to onboard more customers quickly and easily while fundamentally eliminating fraud and building value for our shareholders," said Intellicheck CEO Bryan Lewis.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenues was 94.9% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to 94.8% in the same period in 2022.

Operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2023, which consist of selling, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses, decreased 15% to $4,291,000 for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $5,054,000 for the same period of 2022. Included within operating expenses for the fourth quarters of 2023 and 2022 were $249,000 and $687,000, respectively, of non-cash equity compensation expense.

Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest and other income, provision for income taxes, sales tax accrual, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense and certain non-recurring charges) improved to $1,169,000 for the fourth quarter of 2023 as compared to $389,000 for the same period of 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA

We use Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial performance measurement. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting net loss for certain reductions such as interest and other income and certain addbacks such as income taxes, impairments of long-lived assets and goodwill, sales tax accrual, depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA is provided to investors to supplement the results of operations reported in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our financial results with other companies that also use Adjusted EBITDA in their communications to investors. By excluding non-cash charges such as impairments of long-lived assets and goodwill, sales tax accrual, amortization, depreciation, and stock-based compensation, as well as non-operating charges for interest and income taxes, investors can evaluate our operations and can compare the results on a more consistent basis to the results of other companies. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is one of the primary measures management uses to monitor and evaluate financial and operating results.

We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an important indicator of our operational strength and performance of our business and a useful measure of our historical operating trends. However, there are significant limitations to the use of Adjusted EBITDA since it excludes interest and other income, impairments of long-lived assets and goodwill, sales tax accrual, stock-based compensation expense, all of which impact our profitability, as well as depreciation and amortization related to the use of long-term assets which benefit multiple periods. We believe that these limitations are compensated by providing Adjusted EBITDA only with GAAP net loss and clearly identifying the difference between the two measures. Consequently, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net loss presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA as defined by us may not be comparable with similarly named measures provided by other entities.
