INCREDIMAIL REPORTS $5.6M IN REVENUES
Wednesday 13 August 2008
TEL AVIV, ISRAEL - August 13, 2008 - IncrediMail Ltd. (NASDAQ: MAIL), an internet company, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2008.
Revenues in the second quarter of 2008 were $5.2 million, up 21% compared with $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2007, and up 10% compared sequentially with the first quarter of 2008. The increase in revenues resulted primarily from a 34% increase in search-related activities which reached $2.4 million, as well as increased product and subscription revenues.
Although financial income in the second quarter of 2008 decreased by $0.2 million, net profit according to U.S. GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) for the second quarter of 2008 remained $0.6 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, as compared to $0.06 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2007.
Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2008 were $4.2 million, an increase of 29% over $3.3 million recorded for the second quarter of 2007. The increase reflects:
- Continued strong investment in product development to support the finalization of commercial versions of HiYo, the Company's instant messaging add-on, a new version of Magentic, its personal digital-photograph presentation software, and a new version of the IncrediMail flagship email product, all of which are scheduled for release during the second half of 2008.
- Initial ramping up of customer acquisition efforts, as part of the Company's strategy to achieve a new level of download and registration rates. As it optimizes these operations, IncrediMail expects to further invest in these marketing channels during the second half of 2008.
- Closure of Community and Branded Content activities, including the reduction of related marketing and development staff. This reduced certain operating expenses compared to prior periods.
Commenting on the results, Mr. Ofer Adler, IncrediMail's CEO, said, "We are pleased to report that our search-related revenues returned to their previous growth trajectory during the second quarter, reflecting the step-by-step solidification and improvement of our relationship with Google. Even more important, our search-related revenues have grown strongly since we signed the AdSense Direct contract with Google at the end of June, demonstrating the importance of the improved communication and terms achieved in the process. To maximize and diversify our revenues from search activities, we are continuing with our efforts to improve our conversion rates and increase the number of users as well as engaging in trials with other major search providers."
Mr. Adler continued, "We have begun to implement our strategies for increasing the download, registration and usage rates of all of our products. To fine-tune our approach to media buys, we have been testing out keywords and properties, and are also preparing direct marketing campaigns aimed at our existing user base. We are pleased to report that HiYo, our beta-stage instant messaging add-on, has accumulated more than half a million registered downloads in just a couple of months, and is demonstrating a strong viral potential. We continue to prepare for the third-quarter commercial launch of both HiYo and Magentic, and are on-track towards launching the new version of IncrediMail during the fourth quarter."
"Taken as a whole, we are excited by our positive momentum and look forward to accelerated growth in the second half of the year," concluded Mr. Adler.
