RALEIGH, NC / ACCESSWIRE / November 4, 2021 / Issuer Direct Corporation (NYSE American:ISDR) (the "Company"), an industry-leading communications and compliance company, today reported its operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
To view this piece of content from www.accesswire.com, please give your consent at the top of this page.Brian Balbirnie, CEO of Issuer Direct, commented, "The third quarter helped support what has been a record year in terms of revenue for us, led by our ACCESSWIRE brand, which increased over 30% from the third quarter of the prior year. We continued to invest in our platform and expand our sales organization, which contributed to higher operating costs during the quarter, however, we believe this investment will provide long-term benefits in further customer growth and gross margin improvement."
Mr. Balbirnie continued, "These initiatives are important and will continue to be a focus for the remainder of the year. As a result of our product development, we launched a comprehensive newsroom subscription offering mid-way through the third quarter. We are seeing early interest in our newsroom product, something we expect will continue for the year and contribute to our expected growth next year. Our sales organization continues to grow its pipeline of platform subscriptions and first-time customers subscribing to ACCESSWIRE are producing higher year over year revenues, an indicator that our digital marketing strategy is working."
Mr. Balbirnie concluded, "Looking ahead, we remain focused on continuing to increase both our customer counts and revenues. We believe this will be led by ACCESSWIRE, our newsroom product and our entire communications platform, a combination that we believe will result in higher average revenues per user. Strategically, we continue to focus on products and businesses we believe we need to acquire to further expand our platform, customer and geographic reach."
Third Quarter 2021 Highlights:
- Revenue - Total revenue was $5,465,000, a 12% increase from $4,882,000 in Q3 2020 and a 4% decrease from $5,720,000 in Q2 2021. Communications revenue increased 10% from Q3 2020 and 5% from Q2 2021. The increase in Communications revenue is primarily due to the combination of increased revenue from our ACCESSWIRE product due to increased volume and pricing and an increase in revenue from subscriptions of Platform id. As compared to Q3 2020, these increases were partially offset by a decline in revenue from our events and webcasting business due to lower demand during Q3 2021. Communications revenue was 67% of total revenue for Q3 2021, compared to 69% for Q3 2020. Revenue from our Compliance business increased 17% from Q3 2020 and decreased 20% from Q2 2021. The increase compared to Q3 2020 was due to an increase in revenue from our print and proxy fulfillment services as well as our stock transfer services due to increased market activity. The decrease from Q2 2021 was due to seasonality of print and proxy fulfillment services as most annual meetings occur during the second quarter.
- Gross Margin - Gross margin for Q3 2021 was $4,110,000, or 75% of revenue, compared to $3,495,000, or 72% of revenue, during Q3 2020 and $4,240,000, or 74%, in Q2 2021. Communications gross margin was 78%, an increase from 74% in Q3 2020 and 75% in Q2 2021 due to increased scale in our ACCESSWIRE product.
- Operating Income - Operating income was $977,000 for Q3 2021, compared to $1,076,000 during Q3 2020. The decrease in operating income is due to higher operating expenses, primarily due to continued investment and expansion of our headcount, particularly in our sales and marketing and product development teams as well as higher professional fees related to ongoing projects.
- Net Income - On a GAAP basis, net income was $1,024,000, or $0.27 per diluted share, during Q3 2021, compared to $789,000, or $0.21 per diluted share, during Q3 2020. During Q3 2021, we recorded a one-time benefit of $366,000 related to employee retention credits related to the CARES Act.
- Operating Cash Flows - Cash flows from operations for Q3 2021 were $1,238,000 compared to $1,321,000 in Q3 2020.
- Non-GAAP Measures - Q3 2021 EBITDA was $1,632,000, or 30% of revenue, compared to $1,401,000, or 29% of revenue, during Q3 2020. Non-GAAP net income for Q3 2021 was $906,000, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to $963,000, or $0.26 per diluted share, during Q3 2020.
Year-to-date Q3 2021 Highlights:
- Revenue - Total revenue was $16,165,000, a 17% increase from $13,782,000 during the first nine months of 2020. Communications revenue increased 18% during the first nine months of 2021 compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase in Communications revenue was primarily due to the combination of increased revenue from our ACCESSWIRE product and an increase in revenue from subscriptions of Platform id., partially offset by a decrease in revenue from our events and webcasting business. Communications revenue remained 64% of total revenue for both the first nine months of 2021 and 2020. Revenue from our Compliance business increased 16% during the first nine months of 2021 compared to the same period of 2020. The increase was due to an increase in revenue from our print and proxy fulfillment services as well as our stock transfer services due to increased market activity.
- Gross Margin - Gross margin for the first nine months of 2021 was $11,936,000, or 74% of revenue, compared to $9,780,000, or 71% of revenue, during the first nine months of 2020. Communications gross margin was 75% during the first nine months of 2021, up 2% from the first nine months of 2020 due to increased scale in our ACCESSWIRE product.
- Operating Income - Operating income was $3,045,000 for the first nine months of 2021, compared to $2,325,000 during the same period of 2020. The increase in operating income is due to an increase in gross margin partially offset by higher operating expenses, primarily due to continued investment and expansion of our headcount, including our sales and marketing and product development teams as well as higher professional fees related to ongoing projects.
- Net Income - On a GAAP basis, net income was $2,675,000, or $0.70 per diluted share, during the first nine months of 2021, compared to $1,787,000, or $0.47 per diluted share, during the first nine months of 2020. During the first nine months of 2021, we recorded a one-time benefit of $366,000 related to employee retention credits related to the CARES Act.

Non-GAAP net income for the first nine months of 2021 was $2,778,000, or $0.73 per diluted share, compared to $2,334,000, or $0.62 per diluted share, during the same period of 2020.
- Stock Repurchase Plan - The Company completed its $2,000,000 repurchase program originally announced on August 7, 2019 and increased on March 16, 2020 by repurchasing the remaining balance under the plan of $452,000 or 19,777 shares of its common shares during the first quarter of 2021.

Non-GAAP Information
Certain Non-GAAP financial measures are included in this press release. In the calculation of these measures, the Company excludes certain items, such as amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, other unusual items, tax impact of adjustments and discrete items impacting income tax expense.
