Information Analysis Inc. Reports Second Quarter Results

 

FAIRFAX, VIRGINIA – Information Analysis Inc. (OTCBB: IAIC) reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2004. Revenues were $2,157,000 up 82% from the $1,182,000 reported in 2003’s second quarter. The Company reported net income of $59,000, or $0.01 per share, compared to a net loss of $74,000, or ($0.01) per share in 2003’s second quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, IAI had revenue of $4,274,000, up from the $2,103,000 reported for six months ending June 30, 2003. Net income for the first six months of fiscal 2004 was $112,000, or $0.01 per share, versus a net loss of $264,000, or ($0.03) per share, in the comparable 2003 period.

 

The Company attributes the improvement in the second quarter in comparison to the second quarter of 2003 to increased sales success. “We now have four consecutive quarters of profitability,” said Sandor Rosenberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IAI. “The return to profitability has improved our balance sheet and cash flow.

 

“The Company is continuing the active pursuit of the conversion and system modernization business in addition to developing business opportunities in the area of Web applications. We have also formed alliances with a number of software product companies where IAI will be the general systems integrator. This will allow the company to work on a greater number of opportunities which should significantly build our pipeline for the second half of the year and forward.

 

“We still are in merger and acquisition discussions with a number of firms and hope to complete a transaction in the future.”
