RICHARDSON, Texas, Feb. 21, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intrusion Inc. (OTCQB:INTZ), (“Intrusion”) today announced financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2016.

Intrusion’s net loss for the fourth quarter 2016 was $0.3 million, compared to a net loss of $0.5 million for the fourth quarter 2015.  Net loss for the year 2016 was $1.6 million, compared to a net loss of $1.2 million for 2015.

Revenue for the fourth quarter 2016 was $1.4 million, compared to $1.5 million in the fourth quarter 2015.  Revenue for the year 2016 was $6.1 million, compared to $6.8 million in 2015. 

Gross profit margin increased to 65% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2016, compared to 63% of revenue in the fourth quarter 2015.  For the year, the gross profit margin increased to 64%, compared to 63% in 2015.    

Intrusion’s fourth quarter 2016 operating expenses were $1.2 million, compared to $1.4 million in the fourth quarter 2015. For the year 2016, operating expenses were $5.3 million, compared to $5.4 million in 2015. 

As of December 31, 2016, Intrusion reported cash and cash equivalents of $0.1 million, a working capital deficiency of $0.8 million, and debt of $3.1 million.   As of December 31, 2015, Intrusion reported cash and cash equivalents of $0.1 million, working capital deficiency of $0.8 million and debt of $1.9 million. 

“We booked $1.3 million of orders in the fourth quarter 2016,” stated G. Ward Paxton, Chairman, President and CEO of Intrusion.  “Federal Government business in the fourth quarter was reduced due to the approval delay of the 2017 Federal Budget.  The government is operating under a Continued Resolution whereby existing projects can be funded up to the level of the previous year and new projects are delayed until the budget is approved.  Since Intrusion has heavy focus on new projects, these delays have impacted us significantly.  On the other hand, the number of new projects in our pipeline has grown.  In spite of the Continued Resolution problem with the Federal Government business, we booked $0.8 million of orders in January 2017,” Paxton concluded.
