(Nasdaq: ISIG) today reported net sales of $7,281,000 for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2010, a decrease of 17.9%, compared to net sales of $8,867,000 for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2009. The net income for the fourth quarter of 2010 was $6,475,000, or $0.41 per basic share and $0.38 per diluted share, compared to $1,303,000, or $0.09 per basic share and $0.08 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2009. The net income for the fourth quarter of 2010 included a tax benefit of $6,704,000 primarily related to the reversal of the valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset for the Company’s net operating losses which are expected to be fully utilized in 2011 against the taxable income generated from the proceeds received as part of the News America Marketing In-Store, LLC (“NAM”) settlement. The operating loss was $(230,000) for the fourth quarter of 2010 compared to operating income of $1,339,000 for the fourth quarter of 2009. Insignia Point-of-Purchase Services® (POPS) revenue for the fourth quarter of 2010 was $6,674,000, a decrease of 19.3% compared to fourth quarter 2009 POPS revenue of $8,265,000.
For the year ended December 31, 2010, net sales were $30,007,000, an increase of 4.3%, compared to net sales of $28,770,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Net income for the 2010 year was $7,626,000, or $0.49 per basic share and $0.45 per diluted share, compared to $3,716,000, or $0.25 per basic share and $0.23 per diluted share for the 2009 year. The net income for the year ended December 31, 2010, included the tax benefit of $6,704,000 primarily related to the reversal of the valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset for the Company’s net operating losses which are expected to be fully utilized in 2011 against the taxable income generated from the proceeds received as part of the News America Marketing In-Store, LLC (“NAM”) settlement. The operating income for 2010 was $905,000 compared to operating income of $3,745,000 for 2009. Operating income for 2009 included proceeds of $1,387,000 related to the settlement of a lawsuit against one of the Company’s insurers. Insignia POPS revenue for the 2010 year was $27,231,000, an increase of 2.1%, compared to POPS revenue of $26,666,000 for the 2009 year.
As previously announced by the Company, the amount paid by NAM to the Company in settlement of the lawsuit was $125,000,000, less a $4,000,000 payment related to the 10-year business arrangement. Litigation counsel for the Company received a contingent fee payment of $31,250,000, which resulted in a net cash payment to the Company of $89,750,000. By using the Company’s net operating loss carry forward, the total taxes are estimated to be approximately $29,750,000, resulting in net settlement proceeds after taxes of approximately $60,000,000.
Insignia also announced a series of actions approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting on February 22, 2011. First, the Board approved payment to the shareholders of a special dividend of $2.00 per share, to shareholders of record on April 1, 2011, with payment expected to be on May 2, 2011. Second, the Board also approved a Stock Repurchase Plan, authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $15,000,000 of the Company’s common stock from time to time on or before January 31, 2012, in accordance with SEC Rule 10b-18. Finally, the Board also approved a Performance Bonus Plan, providing for the payment of $3,987,500 to certain employees of the Company, to reward them for their diligent and persistent efforts during the ten plus years of litigation with NAM, which was settled on February 9, 2011, resulting in the payment to the Company by NAM of $125,000,000 in settlement proceeds. The total bonus amount is equal to five percent of the gross settlement proceeds in excess of $10,000,000, minus contingent attorney’s fees and the $4,000,000 payment to NAM in connection with the new business arrangement.
CEO Scott Drill commented, “Clearly, the most significant development in our business is the February 9th settlement of our litigation with NAM. The combination of the cash infusion and our new 10-year business arrangement positions us well for future growth. Both Insignia and NAM are working diligently to finalize our definitive agreement. If the parties cannot reach agreement, the Magistrate Judge of the U.S. District Court, District of Minnesota, will resolve any remaining issues. This agreement is expected to promote more competition in the in-store advertising market and give CPGs increased access to at-shelf signs. We also believe that payment of the special dividend and authorization of the Stock Repurchase Plan will provide an effective means for the Company to return part of the settlement to the shareholders, but retain sufficient funds for the Company to grow its business.”
Mr. Drill continued, “Fourth quarter 2010 legal expense was $704,000 versus $529,000 in the fourth quarter of 2009. Legal expense for the 2010 year was $2,081,000 versus $1,838,000 in 2009. Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at December 31, 2010, were $13,696,000, up from $13,197,000 on December 31, 2009.”

Nsfe is being pumped now
Nice job fire. Its always good to hear you making Monet ;)
thank you...watching l2 like a hawk....
Indicators are turned up for a move, MACD is headed up back into positive territory. The 20dma (.04318)has started to turn and it could cross the 50dma (.04932) if the trend continues in which the 50dma would become support. Vol has me worried just because before yesterday there was not any real vol. RSI is moving into overbought territory which could be good for a move up as long as the buying continues. Keep a eye on the vol if it starts to dry up you will see the PPS fall back down. I personally don't like to chase a stock after a big run because normally it comes back down right after.
check out cbis...had 100% move yesterday on cancer treatment news. would like to know what you think.
Very nice, I've been working on jet skis all day.
Its going to close below its BB tomorrow but looks like a good bottom play. based on the chart. they are calling for a breakout but it would have to hit above the 50ma and stay there not drop off after. I like the chart for sure, but I would look for an entry around .0018-.0019 tomorrow. Of course I didnt look at the ss or the news, this is all based on chart. This on the firehouse?
what do you think of this chart...
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=60148577
sure thing. Ill do them tomorrow when im sitting around doing nothin.
Can you update the TYTN chart and add ones for PRPM and BRAV over the weekend.
BRAV imo is still a good buy under .005, they haven't released a PR about the 4q or the new store (which is a let down) but I would expect to hear something this week and the PPS should get back above .01
PRPM is still holding the .0005 but we need vol or a PR to push thru the 6's. I still have a position and waiting to see how it does next week.
Once again TYTN is suppose to be releasing a PR Tues if they don't then I will be closing my position and taking the alert off.
I saw that but didn't want to chase it up. Is it just a pump or are there any good techs
Thank you, returned the favor and marked your board.
RE: DNNC -- your right, great low floater with potential but needs news and volume yes
check out BYSD while you wait on DNNC -- its on a 2 day run and should enter 002's tomorrow and shooting realistically for 003 by weeks end
Thanks for the heads up. I still have it on watch and will upgrade to a buy if vol starts coming in.
PRPM still holding a large position, seems to be holding above .0004. If it gets buying pressure we could see a run up to .001
BRAV, still no news on the new store opening. I have been adding to my position under .005
Rumor of news tomorrow on TYTN, hopefully we will see a bump on news.
DNNC L2 is thin folkzzz 2 x 001, 2 x 0012, 1 x 0016 -- any ask slapping sends this low floater upward
RE: DNNC ~~ any volume at all will send this green its so thin here
DNNC Bid: 0.0008 Ask: 0.001 Last: 0.001 Chg ($): 0.00 Vol: --
http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=DNNC.PK
still waiting on news here --
IBOX updated with chart for tytn! Lets watch this baby pop tomorrow!
BUY ALERT TYTN !!!! OC callin it! Lets see if you are right? Im guessing you are, I wonder how many other boards will alert it tomorrow morning after they have bought in. lol
That JA waitamin doesnt know what retire means. did you read his post? I wish I wasnt limited to 2 post on that board. or if I could PM him man I would let it fly
TEMN should break 100 mil vol today
Its only shown 1 on mine
Whatare youshowing for colume on prpm? there was two 6mill buys now there is only one. doesnt make any sense.
I know. I am hoping that a PR comes out to help with the MOMO. people want 5s, but wont buy the 6s. If I knew it would help I would throw some askslappage up but I cant take out 6 MMs. I would like to think I could, but i cant lol
We need vol or we will be sitting here for awhile.
