EX-99.1 2 a2047825zex-99_1.txt PRESS RELEASE EXHIBIT 99.1 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact(s): CIC Marjorie Bailey (650) 802-7779 mbailey@cic.com COMMUNICATION INTELLIGENCE CORPORATION FIRST QUARTER 2001 FINANCIAL RESULTS REDWOOD SHORES, CA, APRIL 26, 2001 - (Nasdaq: CICI) Communication Intelligence Corporation ("CIC" or the "Company"), bringing you "The Power to Sign Online(TM)", announced today its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2001. Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2001 increased by $0.241 million, or 18%, to $1.618 million as compared to revenues of $1.377 million for the corresponding quarter of the prior year. This increase is primarily attributed to Corporate sales, which includes PenOp related maintenance revenues, Enterprise and OEM revenues, and also Online revenue, which is the Company's software sold over the internet, via CIC's website. The net loss for the first quarter ended March 31, 2001 was $0.741 million, or $0.01, on 90 million weighted average common shares as compared to a net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 of $0.888 million, or $0.01, on 83 million weighted average common shares. The net loss for the first quarter of 2001 decreased 17% over the first quarter of the prior year. This decrease in net loss for the first quarter 2001 was primarily attributable to a decrease in cost of goods sold related to the Company's Online revenue and Corporate sales, offset by an increase in non-cash amortization expense for intangibles from CIC's acquisition of PenOp in October 2000. CIC's president and CEO, Guido DiGregorio stated, "Despite the current economic slowdown, CIC continues to demonstrate the focus and market acceptance necessary to increase revenue. Both our Corporate sales and Online revenue efforts continue to focus on leveraging CIC's biometric electronic signature solutions and natural input technologies in high potential applications such as e-Commerce, mobile voice/internet devices, and corporate security. This strategy is achieving results necessary to move towards accelerated sales. Based on the backlog and current sales activity, and subject to any further deterioration in our market, we are projecting a return to profitability next quarter."
