Mitek Reports Record Revenue in Third Quarter of Fiscal 2017


SAN DIEGO, CA, July 27, 2017 - Mitek (NASDAQ: MITK, www.miteksystems.com), a global leader in mobile capture and identity verification software solutions, today announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 ended June 30, 2017.

Fiscal Third Quarter Financial Highlights

Record total revenue of $11.8 million, up 30% year over year.
SaaS revenue of $2.4 million, up 61% year over year.
GAAP net income of $0.6 million, or $0.02 per diluted share.
Non-GAAP net income of $2.9 million, or $0.08 per diluted share.
Excluding one-time charges related to the Company's CFO transition, GAAP and Non-GAAP net income per diluted share would have been $0.04 and $0.10, up 90% and 35%, respectively, year over year.
Cash and investments totaled $42.9 million at June 30, 2017, up $3.0 million, or 8% from the second fiscal quarter.

Commenting on the results, James DeBello, Chairman and CEO of Mitek, said:

“Our record revenue was driven by continued growth from our industry leading identity verification and mobile check deposit products, contributing to another strong quarter for Mitek. Our identity solutions squarely address the large and growing consumer identity and access management market and are a significant growth driver for Mitek as businesses look to optimize the digital channel for new customer on-boarding, payments and authentication. Additionally, our mobile deposit solution continues to lead the market as financial institutions drive their customers to the lower cost mobile channel. Our market momentum and competitive advantages in these two growing markets, as well as our strong balance sheet, position us well for continued growth this year and for years to come.”

Fiscal 2017 Financial Guidance

For the fiscal year ending September 30, 2017, the Company expects full year total revenue to be between $44 million and $45 million, which would represent growth between 27% and 30% year over year. The Company expects to generate a non-GAAP profit margin of at least 20% for fiscal 2017.

Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Statements contained in this news release relating to the Company's or management's intentions, hopes, beliefs, expectations or predictions of the future, including, but not limited to, statements relating to the Company's long-term prospects and market opportunities are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, risks related to the Company's ability to withstand negative conditions in the global economy, a lack of demand for or market acceptance of the Company's products, the Company's ability to continue to develop, produce and introduce innovative new products in a timely manner or the outcome of any pending or threatened litigation and the timing of the implementation and launch of the Company’s products by the Company's signed customers.

Additional risks and uncertainties faced by the Company are contained from time to time in the Company's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including, but not limited to, the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016 and its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, which you may obtain for free on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Collectively, these risks and uncertainties could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those projected in its forward-looking statements and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update, amend or clarify these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release contains non-GAAP financial measures for non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share that exclude stock compensation expenses, intellectual property litigation costs and acquisition-related costs and expenses. These financial measures are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In evaluating the Company's performance, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to supplement financial statements prepared under GAAP. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide a useful measure of the Company's operating results, a meaningful comparison with historical results and with the results of other companies, and insight into the Company's ongoing operating performance. Further, management and the Board of Directors utilize these non-GAAP financial measures to gain a better understanding of the Company's comparative operating performance from period-to-period and as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures, when read in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financials, are useful to investors because they provide a basis for meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company's ongoing operating results, including results of operations against investor and analyst financial models, which helps identify trends in the Company's underlying business and provides a better understanding of how management plans and measures the Company's underlying business.
