Michael Schrader, COO of Top Image Systems, commented, "We continued to deliver double digit organic revenue growth, up 29% year over year, recording non-GAAP operating profit of $0.6 million, and increasing our percentage of recurring revenue in the mix to 34%. Strategically, we experienced solid gains in the U.S and mobile markets, highlighted by a new partner agreement to sell MobiPay, the addition of a new mobile sales manager and a growing pipeline for our overall U.S. operations. Leveraging this momentum, the acquisition of eGistics at the start of the third quarter will serve to accelerate our positioning in the U.S. by tripling our headcount in the Americas to more than 65 employees and by providing direct access for cross-sales of TIS solutions to top U.S. financial institutions. Going forward, eGistics will enable TIS to extend its current solutions and develop new products on the CloudDocs platform. The transaction will also diversify our revenue, as it will make the Americas our largest geography by revenue. This transformative acquisition increases our scale and elevates our recurring revenue product mix to 49% of 2013 pro-forma results."

Mr. Schrader added, "Our continued and reinforced four-prong focus on enhanced cloud capabilities, transition to SaaS, our advanced mobile image processing solutions and a strong sales presence in the U.S. - our primary target growth market -- is driving product, sales, marketing and executive recruitment strategies to ensure maximum revenue growth. We aim to increasingly deploy in the U.S. and global markets the most advanced multichannel capture-initiated smart process applications that liberate businesses and consumers by enabling them to easily and rapidly capture and process data anytime, anywhere. Looking ahead, we are excited about integrating eGistics' products and personnel into the TIS family, to accelerate our growth in the U.S. market and to expand our mobile and cloud-based payments portfolio worldwide."

eGistics realized 2013 EBITDA of $1.52 million, enhancing TIS' pro-forma profitability;
eGistics' SaaS model, which results in a high ratio of recurring revenues, reaching 49% of pro-forma 2013 revenues will significantly increase visibility;
Americas revenue becomes 38% of pro-forma 2013 revenue, diversifying TIS global revenue streams;
Transaction is expected to drive an increase in TIS non-GAAP earnings per share in 2014 and beyond;
Acquisition brings 13% stake in TIS to Trident Equity, Trident Founder and Chairman Don Dixon joins the TIS board;
eGistics increases TIS' U.S. footprint by tripling headcount to over 65 and by adding a TIS office in Dallas, TX;
Acquisition adds high-profile customers in the U.S. financial sector, including 4 out of five top 5 banks, the two largest remittance processors, leading asset management companies, and the largest Medicaid provider, creating opportunities for TIS to cross-sell its mobile and enterprise capture solutions and in parallel sell eGistics' products to TIS' installed base.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including, without limitation, Non-GAAP Operating Income (which excludes non-cash stock-based compensation expenses) and Non-GAAP Net Income (which excludes the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation expenses). Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP measures in the tables entitled "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Results" below.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to TIS' GAAP results provided in the attached financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, and they are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The attached tables reconcile each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. TIS' management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding TIS' performance by excluding the impact of certain charges and gains that may not be indicative of TIS' core business operating results. TIS' management believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing TIS' performance. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate comparisons to TIS' historical performance and its competitors' operating results. TIS includes these non-GAAP financial measures because management believes they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.
