NEWARK, Calif., – October 22, 2015 - Socket Mobile, Inc. (OTC: SCKT), a leading innovator of data capture and delivery solutions for enhanced productivity , today reported financial results for its 2015 third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Revenue for the third quarter of 2015 was $4.5 million, a decrease of 8 percent compared to revenue of $4.9 million for the same quarter a year ago and flat compared to revenue of $4.5 million in the immediately preceding quarter. Net income for the third quarter of 2015 was $530,000, or $0.10 per share, compared to net income of $432,000, or $0.09 per share, in the third quarter of 2014 and net income of $401,000, or $0.07 per share, in the immediately preceding quarter.

Gross profit margins for the third quarter of 2015 were 49.5%, up from margins of 43.6% for the third quarter a year ago and margins of 47.2% for the immediately preceding quarter.

Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2015 were $1.6 million, flat with operating expenses of $1.6 million in both the third quarter a year ago and the immediately preceding quarter.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, revenue was $13.0 million, compared to revenue of $13.1 million in the year ago period. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $859,000, or $0.16 per share, compared to net income of $453,000, or $0.09 per share, for the same period one year ago.

Cash and cash equivalents were $862,000 at September 30, 2015 compared to $633,000 at December 31, 2014.

Kevin Mills, president and chief executive officer, commented, “Our cordless scanning revenue continued to grow in both the third quarter and nine months compared to the prior year periods, representing 88 percent of our total revenue year-to-date. The reduction in our total third quarter and nine months revenue compared to the prior year is solely attributable to lower revenue from the SoMo handheld computer which has been in decline over the past several years. The growth in our cordless scanning business reflects the widespread adoption of our barcode scanning products by our software application partners, many of whom are focused on mobile point of sale and other mobile application areas. While today our growth is driven by mobile point of sale applications, we expect our business to broaden to include more inventory-centric and other mobile market areas in the next 12 months as more of these applications come to market. We expect to introduce additional products over the next several months to capitalize on the opportunities offered by these additional markets.”

“From an operations standpoint, we have optimized our business model to support data capture requirements of mobile applications designed by businesses for use on mobile devices and marketed and distributed online. This model has enabled us to hold steady our operating costs while supporting worldwide growth in our sales. We’ve strengthened our balance sheet by over $2 million in capital over the past 18 months from a combination of profitable operations, stock option and warrant exercises as shareholder value has increased. We are thankful to our stakeholders for their continued support,” Mills concluded.
