Digimarc Reports First Quarter 2018 Financial Results

BEAVERTON, Ore., April 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Digimarc Corporation (NASDAQ: DMRC), inventor of the Intuitive Computing Platform™ featuring Digimarc Barcode, reported financial results for the first quarter 2018.

Digimarc The Barcode of Everything(TM) (PRNewsFoto/Digimarc Corporation) (PRNewsfoto/Digimarc Corporation)

First Quarter 2018 Financial Results
Revenue for the first quarter of 2018 totaled $5.6 million compared to $6.1 million in the same quarter a year-ago. The decrease was primarily due to lower license revenue reflecting the impact of amending an existing license agreement in the third quarter of 2017 whereby the company waived all future royalty obligations in one of the licensed fields of use in exchange for an upfront $3.5 million license fee.

Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2018 totaled $11.8 million compared to $10.2 million in the same quarter a year-ago. The increase was primarily due to higher investment in sales, marketing, and engineering as the company continues to address important opportunities in market development and delivery of Digimarc Discover and Digimarc Barcode.

Operating loss for the first quarter of 2018 totaled $8.4 million compared to an operating loss of $6.4 million in the same quarter a year-ago. The higher operating loss was primarily due to higher operating expenses. 

Net loss for the first quarter of 2018 totaled $8.1 million or $(0.72) per diluted share, compared to net loss of $6.2 million or $(0.61) per diluted share in the same quarter a year-ago.

At quarter-end, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $63.7 million, compared to $67.7 million at December 31, 2017.
