James F. DeSocio, President & CEO of Intellinetics, stated, “We had tremendous positive feedback and customer support at the October Build SmarterTM homebuilding industry conference where we showcased our IPAS payables automation solution. At the conference, we had a new IPAS customer present their high ROI in going live with our solution, which, when properly implemented, can pay for itself in months. We are working to deliver that experience with each new customer. That’s why it sells, and that’s why we are so excited about offering this solution. I am convinced more than ever that the time is now to invest in sales and marketing to get the word out with the goal of growing our revenues more aggressively. Our marketing spend is expanding for trade shows and targeted campaigns for IPAS, as well as our K-12 prospects and other select solutions where we excel, such as micrographics.”

“IPAS continues to be the biggest opportunity for us to transform our business. IPAS solutions average a higher SAAS annual revenue per customer by a factor of 5 to 10 over our more traditional document management solutions. As a result, sales of the IPAS solutions to each new customer can lead to faster growth than in the past. At the same time, I want to stress that while we are investing to grow more aggressively than in the past, we are mindful of our base business and our cash flow. We are strengthening all aspects of our infrastructure, from more leveraging of our transition to NetSuite, which will be complete by the end of this year, to enhancing our SOC2 process and our employee training program. Further, we increased our software development staff this year, which has already driven more rapid deployment of new features to our products.”

Summary – 2024 Third Quarter Results

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $4,589,625, an increase of 8.0%, as compared with $4,248,429 for the same period in 2023. This organic increase was driven by an 8.5% increase in SaaS revenue, and an 11.5% increase in professional services fees, partially offset by lower sales of storage and retrieval and flat revenues, as expected, in software maintenance services. Recurring revenue grew 2.6% and represented 58.6% of total revenue.

Total operating expenses increased 37.3% to $3,104,065, compared to $2,260,036 in the third quarter 2023, driven by $381,042 in share-based compensation expense, planned investments in sales and marketing that resulted in an additional $206,211 expense over the same expense in the third quarter 2023, plus higher non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses, and higher general and administrative expenses to support the growing size of our business. Loss from operations was $298,211 compared to income from operations of $345,555 in the third quarter 2023.

Intellinetics reported net loss of $392,850 for the quarter compared to net income of $209,331 for the same period in 2023. Basic and diluted net loss per share for the quarter was $(0.09), compared to net income per share of $0.05 per basic and fully diluted share for the third quarter 2023. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $479,537 compared to $708,749 in the third quarter 2023.

Summary – 2024 Year-to-Date Results

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $13,738,302, an increase of 8.2% compared to $12,693,692 for the same period in 2023. Total operating expenses increased 28.2% to $8,869,062, compared to $6,915,921 the same period in 2023. In addition to structural investments for growth and scale, the primary driver of the expense increase was $914,960 related to share-based compensation, including our granting of stock options to employees and directors and our issuance of restricted stock awards to employees, a non-cash expense except for $69,525 relating to shares canceled for payment of payroll taxes as part of a cashless grant. Loss from operations was $160,585, compared to income from operations of $925,942 in the same period last year. Intellinetics reported a net loss of $492,514, or $(0.12) per basic and diluted share (inclusive of a charges related to share-based compensation), compared to net income of $457,628, or $0.11 per basic and $0.10 per diluted share, for the same period in 2023. Adjusted EBITDA was $1,851,116 compared to $1,990,274 in the same period 2023.

2024 Outlook

Based on management's current plans and assumptions, Intellinetics reiterated expectations that it will grow revenues on a year-over-year basis for the fiscal year 2024, and reiterated its guidance provided last quarter that it expects its investments in sales and marketing will cause Adjusted EBITDA to decline compared to 2023 levels.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Intellinetics uses non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of income, balance sheet or statement of cash flows of a company.

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or a measure of our liquidity. Intellinetics urges investors to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to the comparable GAAP Net Income, which is included in this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Intellinetics’ financial performance.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful performance measure and is used by us to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period-to-period and to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than measures under GAAP can provide alone. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest expense, any income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation, note conversion and note or equity offer warrant or stock expense, gain or loss on debt extinguishment, change in fair value of contingent consideration, and transaction costs.

Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA

Recurring Revenue: Recognized revenue for any applicable period that we characterize as being recurring in nature, without regard to contract start or end dates or renewal rates. It includes the following revenue types: SaaS subscription agreements, maintenance contracts related to perpetual software licenses, storage and retrieval services, and professional services revenues in the nature of business process outsourcing. It excludes revenues of a type that are not expected to recur, primarily perpetual licenses, most document conversion services, and other professional services that are project based. Recurring revenue is not determined by reference to deferred revenue, unbilled revenue, or any other GAAP financial measure over any period, so the Company has not reconciled the Recurring Revenues to any GAAP measure. Recurring revenue should not be extrapolated into a precise prediction of future revenues, because it does not take into account our contract start and end dates and our renewal rates. Management believes that reviewing this metric, in addition to GAAP results, helps investors and financial analysts understand the value of Intellinetics’ recurring revenue streams versus prior periods.

Reconciliation of revenues to recurring revenues:

Note 1 – Software as a service non-recurring revenue is comprised of professional services setup fees which are recognized ratably over the initial contract period. They do not renew, and are therefore non-recurring. Under ASC 606, they are deemed essential to the functionality of the subscription Software as a service, and are therefore recognized together with the subscription Software as a service revenue.
