Information Analysis Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter Results

 

FAIRFAX, VIRGINIA – Information Analysis Inc. (IAIC:OTCBB) today reported results for the fourth quarter of its fiscal 2004 ended December 31, 2004. Revenues were $2,597,000, an increase of 46% from the $1,783,000 reported in 2003’s fourth quarter. The Information Technology services company reported a net income of $105,000, compared to a net profit of $20,000 in the comparable period in fiscal year 2003.

 

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, IAI had revenue of $9,309,000 and a net income of $572,000, or $0.06 per share basic and $0.05 per share diluted. The Company had revenue of $5,369,000 and a loss of $234,000 or $(0.02) per share for twelve months ended December 31, 2003.

 

“IAI had a solid year in 2004 and is well positioned to continue that trend.,” said Sandor Rosenberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IAI. “Specifically, we accomplished several goals for the year that are critical to our future success. Primarily, we needed to strengthen our financial base and increase our pipeline for future sales. Attaining our first goal, we increased annual revenue by 73% and generated an $806,000 positive swing in profit from 2003. This result allowed the company to return to a position of positive stockholders’ equity. Our second goal was accomplished through new business relationships. By participating in the Mainframe Migration Alliance (MMA), a consortium of organizations, including Microsoft and MicroFocus, that help customers migrate application workload from the mainframe to the Windows platform, we have been able to build our pipeline of potential customers. We expect to convert that pipeline into additional customers during 2005 and future years. As a partner with Adobe, we have sold several enterprise deals to the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Internal Revenue Service. As a result, Adobe has brought IAI into more opportunities that should enhance our future business.

 

“We expect to continue our strong performance and to grow organically, while we also pursue merger/acquisition opportunities with other organizations.”
