Q2 2014 Financial Results
Revenue in the second quarter of 2014 increased 120% to $609,000 from $277,000 in the same year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily driven by growing adoption of the company’s Select Mobile™ RDC solutions.
Cost of revenues in the second quarter of 2014 totaled $716,800, an increase of 8% from $666,200 in the same year-ago period. The increase was primarily due to higher amortization expense associated with the intangible assets acquired with the Select Mobile Money acquisition in March 2014.
Net loss in the second quarter of 2014 totaled $4.2 million or $(0.65) per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $2.8 million or $(0.69) per basic and diluted share in the second quarter of 2013.
Adjusted EBITDA loss (a non-GAAP term defined as net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation, as well as other non-recurring items) for the second quarter of 2014 totaled $2.3 million compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.7 million in the same year-ago period (see further discussion about the use of adjusted EBITDA, below).
Management Commentary
“In the second quarter of 2014, we produced 120% year-over- year topline revenue growth, as well as increased the number of products sold by 55% to 285,” said Jeffrey Mack, president and CEO of Cachet Financial Solutions. “Thisperformance reflects our focus on selling more products and diversifying our revenue base, including adding key customers like FirstView, The Bancorp, and Navy Federal Credit Union. The strong increase in mobile transactions also speaks to our growing, highly-valuable recurring revenue stream.
“Maintaining this momentum, we recently partnered with a top five commercial bank in the U.S. to implement a prepaid mobile platform for one of the world’s largest supermarket chains. This major win reaffirms the strong value proposition of our Select Mobile Money platform, and particularly its unique features and capabilities that enhance the experience of the banking consumer.
“Mobile functionality has quickly become an essential component to the financial services industry, and Cachet is at the forefront of this trend with the most secure and robust technology offered in the market today. In fact, more than 2,000 U.S. banks now offer mobile check deposit, which has increased 100% over the last year, and among these banks, about 10% now rely on Cachet for these services.
“Looking ahead, our expectations for 2014 remain high as we build upon these successes and address the widening pipeline of opportunities ahead. As demand for mobile banking technologies continues to build, we are well positioned with industry-leading solutions and a strengthening customer base. We believe these key factors and strong industry tailwinds will help us expand our market share and continue to drive strong revenue growth in the quarters ahead.”

Use of Non-GAAP Information
In evaluating the Company’s financial performance and operating trends, management considers information concerning the Company’s net sales, adjusted gross margins, adjusted operating expenses, and adjusted EBITDA, among other items, which are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America. The Company’s management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they provide supplemental information that facilitates comparisons to prior periods and for the evaluation of financial results. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate its financial results, develop budgets and manage expenditures. The method the Company uses to produce non-GAAP results is not computed according to GAAP, is likely to differ from the methods used by other companies and should not be regarded as a replacement for corresponding GAAP measures. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP results, which is attached to this release and can also be found on the Company’s website at www.cachetfinancial.com.
