TEL AVIV, Israel and PLANO, Texas, Nov 15, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE via COMTEX) --

Top Image Systems, Ltd. TISA, +8.27% a global innovator of intelligent content processing solutions, today announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2017, ended on September 30, 2017.

Third Quarter Highlights:

Quarterly revenues were $7.1 million, compared to $7.4 million in the second quarter of 2017 and $7.7 million in the same period in 2016;
Quarterly operating loss was ($1.5) million, compared to ($1.3) million in the second quarter of 2017 and ($0.6) million in the same period in 2016;
Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of ($0.71) million, compared to a loss of ($0.47) million in the second quarter of 2017 and positive Adjusted EBITDA of $0.23 million during the same period in 2016;
Quarterly recurring revenues were $4.9 million, representing 70% of total revenue, compared to $4.8 million, representing 64% of total revenues, in the second quarter of 2017 and $4.9 million, representing 64% of total revenues in the same quarter of 2016;
Quarterly GAAP total expenses were $8.5 million, compared to $8.8 million in the second quarter of 2017 and $8.2 million in the same period last year.
In partnership with the SAP Business One organization and as showcased at the SAP Biz.ONE Conference we announced the launch of our cloud-based eFLOW AP solution, integrated with SAP Business One, coupled with an aggressive marketing initiative to build the pipeline and accelerate sales of our solution in fiscal 2018.
One of the largest financial services group in Southeast Asia, with over 500 branches, has selected Top Image Systems to implement an automated Trade Finance document processing solution.
Concluded a multi-year seven figure contract renewal of our receivables automation solution with a large financial services provider, which represents high-margin, recurring cloud-based services revenue stream.
Announced an Extended Support Program with 80% of our existing customers having upgraded to the most current version of eFLOW. This translates to continued high margin maintenance renewal revenue streams, lower support costs and increased opportunities for additional deployment revenues within our installed base of customers.
Negotiated a revolving credit line with a US-based bank on substantially better terms than our previous facility. This will give us access to additional financial resources to manage working capital and to fund our growth.
Brendan Reidy, CEO of Top Image Systems, commented, "We continue to make progress on our path to achieve a balance between sustained profitability from our core capture business while we transition to the higher velocity cloud applications software market. While we are encouraged by the continued strengthening of our pipeline, our third quarter top line revenue was lower than anticipated due to deferral of two significant transactions which we anticipate will be reflected in our fourth quarter revenues. We are particularly encouraged by the traction we are seeing within the banking sector. We completed a multi-year seven figure contract renewal for our receivables automation solution, which is deployed in a highly secure private cloud environment, generating high margin and predictable recurring revenue streams. We also secured the implementation of a Trade Finance solution by one of the largest financial services group in Southeast Asia that re-enforces our proposition for automating labor-intensive business processes."

Mr. Reidy added, "We are particularly pleased with the launch of our cloud-based accounts payable solution, which will leverage the SAP Business One ERP ecosystem for mid-size companies. Our teams are working proactively with the SAP Business One organization to develop co-marketing programs with the SAP Business One channel organization to create the foundation for accelerated traction for our cloud-based solution in fiscal 2018. Our tight integration with SAP Business One as well as with SAP ECC on premise provides us with a unique value proposition to target SAP customers with flexible deployment options on premise and in the cloud."

* GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, including, without limitation, Adjusted EBITDA (which eliminates the impact of interest, taxes, amortization and depreciation expenses, as well as non-cash stock-based compensation expenses and other non-recurring items not part of regular business), Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) (which eliminates the impact of amortization expenses as well as non-cash stock-based compensation expenses and other non-recurring items not part of TIS' ongoing business operations) and Non-GAAP Income (Loss) per share. Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP measures in the tables 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 second quarter ended September 30, 2017, and the other periods presented, and is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The tables below 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 items 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 in addition to the GAAP results. 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.
