First-Quarter Results: First quarter revenue for Image Sensing Systems, Inc. ("ISS," the "Company," "us," "we," or "our") in 2021 was $3.0 million compared to $3.2 million in the first quarter of 2020. Revenue from royalties was $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2021 compared to $2.1 million the first quarter of 2020. Product sales increased to $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2021, an 11 percent increase from $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2020. Autoscope video product sales and royalties were $76,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, and RTMS radar product sales were $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2021. Gross margin for the first quarter of 2021 was 76 percent, a 4 percentage point or 5 percent decrease from a gross margin of 80 percent for the same period in 2020. Gross margin from royalties decreased to 95 percent in the first quarter of 2021 compared to 96 percent in the first quarter of 2020. Product sales gross margin for the first quarter of 2021 was 47 percent compared to 49 percent in the prior year period. The decrease in the gross margin percent was primarily the result of a reduction in warranty reserve in the first quarter of 2020. The 2021 first quarter net income includes operating expenses of $1.9 million, a 34 percent decrease from the first quarter of 2020. The decrease is driven by first quarter 2020 expenses of $294,000 for legal and outside consulting costs related to the efforts around exploring strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value which ended in 2020. The decrease in operating expenses is also due to the increase in capitalized software development costs and decreased headcount in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company capitalized $123,000 of internal software development costs compared to $22,000 in the prior year period. Other income of $931,000 was recorded during the first quarter of 2021 when the Company received forgiveness of the Paycheck Protection Program loan and accrued interest. The Company's net income for the first quarter was $1.1 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $(111,000) or $(0.02) per diluted share, in the prior year period. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding the amortization of intangible assets and depreciation for the applicable periods, operating income for the first quarter of 2021 was $638,000 compared to an operating loss of $(51,000) in the prior year period. “We took measured actions in late 2020 that drove additional efficiencies into the organization to address COVID-19 induced market dynamics and seasonal revenue fluctuations. As reflected in our first quarter results, these actions drove profits allowing us to continue investing in new products and services. I am pleased to report that our product sales came in on target with 11 percent year-over-year growth, a direct result of our team’s ability to support, promote, and sell in a challenging virtual environment. We are seeing rapid adoption of our RTMS Echo radar platform and expect this to continue as we add additional features in the coming months. While royalty revenues declined over last year, we believe this to be a transient event and expect Autoscope sales to rebound in the near term,” said Chad Stelzig, CEO for ISS. “The first quarter of 2021 also marks the beginning of several important product development initiatives to address vulnerable road users, deploy artificial intelligence, and improve the accessibility of data from our platforms. These initiatives will drive new business opportunities requiring actionable data and unique insights.” “Based upon the Company’s financial strength and earnings, we believe that the recently declared dividend will be supported by operating cash flow of the Company while still allowing for growth and the exploration of acquisition opportunities.” “We are excited about the next chapter of the Company, which we feel will help to build our existing business relationships and distribution agreements that we currently have, while also helping to foster future growth opportunities,” concluded Mr. Stelzig.
