REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., March 31, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Communication Intelligence Corporation ("CIC") (OTCQB:CICI), a leading supplier of electronic signature and other software solutions enabling secure and cost-effective management of document-based digital transactions, today reported total revenue of $1,515,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $97,000, or 7%, compared to total revenue of $1,418,000 for the prior year.
"During 2014, we continued our investment in expanding both our technology offering and market reach," said Philip Sassower, chairman and chief executive officer for CIC. "Our largely flat year-to-year results do not reflect significant improvements in our core SignatureOne® Ceremony™ Server and our iSign® family of products and services, as well as strides made in developing key market relationships, such as our strategic alliance with Cegedim in Europe. We remain confident that our initiatives in these areas will support improving results for CIC in 2015 and beyond."
For the year ended December 31, 2014, operating expenses were $5,328,000, a decrease of $387,000, or 7%, compared to operating expenses of $5,715,000 in the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to lower stock option expenses and lower salaries resulting from the shift of certain engineering resources to offshore locations.
For the year ended December 31, 2014, the net loss attributable to common stockholders was $7,379,000, a decrease of $720,000, or 9%, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $8,099,000 in the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to a $484,000 decrease in loss from operations from 2013 to 2014, resulting from the above mentioned increase in revenue and decrease in operating expenses and from a $177,000 decrease in interest expense.
Additional financial information regarding CIC's operating results for the year ended December 31, 2014, will be available in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and available at www.sec.gov.
