    ソース: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 04 5 2021 06:15:00   America/Chicago

    NORCROSS, Ga., May 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intelligent Systems Corporation [NYSE American: INS], the leading provider of innovative credit technology solutions and processing services to the financial technology and services market, announced today its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

    “First-quarter results were in-line with expectations and continued to demonstrate the adaptability of our business model and the resiliency of our employees around the world. Despite challenges stemming from the spread of COVID-19, we continued to service our customers without any delays or impacts,” said Leland Strange, CEO of Intelligent Systems. “We generated revenues of $8.9 million in the quarter, a 13% increase relative to the first quarter of 2020. As expected, our year-over-year top-line growth was driven by professional services and processing and maintenance revenue. While we did not recognize any license revenue in the quarter, we continue to expect licensing revenue in the second quarter and more substantially in the second half of fiscal 2021. Due to the costs of opening our new office in Dubai and developing a new platform, income from operations and net income declined from the comparable prior quarter.” 

    "The infrastructure investments we are making are already showing results. We announced that we entered a partnership with the Al Ansari Exchange, a UAE-based foreign exchange and worldwide money transfer company, and CoreCard's first customer in the Middle East region.  This partnership validates the strategic investments we made, and we remain confident in our strategic vision."

    Mr. Strange continued, “Throughout the first quarter, Intelligent Systems continued to provide high-quality, on-time delivery for all of our clients despite a challenging and constantly shifting environment. Additionally, we repurchased an additional $2.7 million of shares in the quarter and we extended the buyback authorization for an additional $10 million. While some headwinds persist, I am encouraged by the start we have had in fiscal 2021 and we are on track to achieve top-line growth of 20% to 25% for the year.”
