Improved Intrusion Shield customer penetration continues to enhance financial performance
PLANO, TX / ACCESSWIRE / November 12, 2024 / Intrusion Inc. (NASDAQ:INTZ), a leader in cyberattack prevention solutions, announced today financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
Recent Financial & Business Highlights:
Intrusion Shield revenue for the third quarter increased by 49% on a sequential basis.
Awarded a $2.0 million contract with the U.S. Department of Defense for cybersecurity services.
Experienced zero Intrusion Shield customer churn during the third quarter.
Signed 7 new Intrusion Shield logos during the third quarter, bringing the year-to-date total new logo count to 18.
"During the third quarter, we continued to make progress toward improving our financial performance, highlighted by the forty-nine percent improvement in Intrusion Shield revenues we experienced on a sequential basis," said Tony Scott, CEO of Intrusion. "This improvement in our performance was driven by both our recently announced two-million-dollar Shield and Consulting contract that we signed with the U.S. Department of Defense to support its growing cybersecurity efforts and the addition of several other new Intrusion Shield logos over the past few quarters. We're encouraged by the strong momentum we are seeing for our Shield technology, and we anticipate this growth will help further improve our financial results in both the fourth quarter and in 2025."
Third Quarter Financial Results
Revenue for the third quarter of 2024 was $1.5 million, an increase of 3% on a sequential basis. The sequential increase in revenue during the third quarter of 2024 was driven by new customers signed in recent quarters, including the U.S. Department of Defense award for the use of both Intrusion Shield technology and Consulting services.
The gross profit margin was 77% for the third quarter of 2024, compared to 78% in the third quarter of 2023. Gross margin will vary based on product mix.
Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2024 were $3.2 million, an increase of $0.1 million sequentially and a decrease of $0.6 million from the comparable quarter of last year.
The net loss from operating activities for the third quarter of 2024 was $(2.0) million, representing a $0.7 million or 24% improvement on a year-over-year basis. The improvement was driven by lower operating expenses.
The net loss for the third quarter of 2024 was $(2.1) million, or $(0.35) per share, compared to a net loss of $(3.2) million, or $(2.78) per share for the third quarter of 2023. The significantly lower net loss is a result of both reduced operating expenses and reduced interest expense as a result of converting $9.5 million of senior debt to equity earlier in the year.
As of September 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents were $1.1 million.
