iSign Reports Fiscal 2017 Results

SAN JOSE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / April 2, 2018 / iSign Solutions Inc. ("iSIGN") (OTC PINK: ISGN), a leading supplier of electronic signature and other software solutions enabling secure and cost-effective management of document-based digital transactions, today reported total revenue of $1,013,000 for the year ended December 31, 2017, a decrease of $52,000, or 5%, compared to total revenue of $1,065,000 for the prior year.

"During 2017, iSIGN continued the business model transformation commenced in 2016 and was able to reduce further its year-over-year burn rate," said Philip Sassower, co-chairman and chief executive officer for iSIGN. "At current spend levels, iSIGN requires only a modest increase in revenue to become cash flow positive. As disclosed recently in our Cegedim partnership announcement, transaction volume in Europe has started to increase, fueled by approximately 100 contracted clients, over 40 of which are in production and at different points of their respective rollouts. We are confident that iSIGN will experience significant acceleration in transaction volume and revenue from Europe over 2018."

For the year ended December 31, 2017, operating expenses were $2,571,000, a decrease of $1,703,000, or 40%, compared to operating expenses of $4,274,000 in the prior year. This decrease primarily was due to iSIGN's efforts to restructure its operations in favor of partner-generated recurring revenue and reductions in its general and administrative expenses.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the net loss attributable to common stockholders was $1,947,000, a decrease of $3,110,000, or 61%, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $5,057,000 in the prior year. This decrease primarily was due to a $1,651,000 decrease in loss from operations from 2016 to 2017, resulting from the above-mentioned decrease in operating expenses offset by the nominal decrease in revenue, a $79,000 increase in other income, a $303,000 increase on sale of intangible assets, a $106,000 decrease in interest expense, a $293,000 decrease in amortization of debt discount, a $245,000 decrease in accretion of beneficial conversion feature and a $1,313,000 decrease in preferred stock dividend expense, offset by a $550,000 write-off of interest in Chinese joint venture and a $330,000 decrease in gain on derivative liability.

Additional financial information regarding iSIGN's operating results for the year ended December 31, 2017, will be available in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and available at www.sec.gov.
