INTRUSION INC. REPORTS NET INCOME OF $1.8 MILLION FOR SECOND QUARTER 2019

Richardson, Texas – August 12, 2019 – Intrusion Inc. (OTCQB: INTZ), (“Intrusion”) announced today financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Intrusion’s net income was $1.8 million in the second quarter 2019, compared to a net income of $474 thousand in the second quarter 2018 and net income of $947 thousand in the first quarter 2019.

Revenue for the second quarter 2019 was $4.0 million compared to $2.4 million in the second quarter 2018 and $3.2 million for the first quarter 2019.

Gross profit margin was 60 percent of revenue in the second quarter of 2019 compared to 61 percent in the second quarter 2018 and 60 percent in the first quarter 2019.

Intrusion’s second quarter 2019 operating expenses were $0.7 million compared to $0.9 million in the second quarter 2018 and $0.9 million in the first quarter 2019. Operating expenses benefited from a $200 thousand reduction in second quarter sales and marketing expense due to a reimbursement of a prior period expense from a customer. Operating expenses also benefited from reduced sales and marketing expenses associated with shifting expenses to cost of sales for current projects. It is expected that sales and marketing expense will return to more traditional levels in the third quarter 2019.   

As of June 30, 2019, Intrusion reported cash and cash equivalents of $1.5 million, working capital of $1.4 million and debt of $91 thousand.

“Our balance sheet continues to improve with loan payable to officer paid in full, compared to a balance of $1.8 million at year end 2018, and a cash balance of $1.5 million at June 30, 2019. Orders for the second quarter 2019 totaled $2.9 million, all from existing customers,” stated G. Ward Paxton, President and CEO of Intrusion.
