Company Achieves Net Income of $0.03 per Basic and Diluted Share — Gross Margin Improves to 20%

MISSION VIEJO, CA–(August 8, 2016) – CynergisTek, Inc. (OTCQB: AUXO), a leading provider of complete Document Workflow Solutions and IT Security for the healthcare industry, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016.

Financial and operational highlights for the second quarter of 2016 include:

Joseph J. Flynn, President and CEO commented, “We were very pleased with both the fundamental performance and the progress made with our core strategic initiatives.  We continue to provide leading technology and service solutions which drive inefficiencies out of our clients’ operations, streamlining and securing their document workflow processes while guaranteeing cost savings.”  Flynn continued, “The partnership we entered with HealthWare Systems during the quarter was an excellent example of how we can further leverage the CynergisTek platform, providing clients with additional cutting edge solutions across the entire document workflow life cycle.  We are a trusted partner on the front lines within some of the largest health systems in the country and we will continue to seek opportunities of this nature to expand and extend those customer relationships going forward.”

CFO Paul Anthony added, “During the quarter we delivered solid services revenue growth and margins improved substantially.  We are nearing completion of the implementation phase on the large contracts announced late last year and the costs associated with that process are abating, which should continue to support margins through the balance of the year.”

Financial Results for the Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2016


For the three months ended June 30, 2016, we reported revenues of $15.2 million, a decrease of 3% when compared to $15.6 million reported in the second quarter of 2015. The addition of $3.1 million of new recurring service revenue contracts was offset by reductions of approximately $1.8 million due to volume reductions and terminated services. Equipment revenues in the second quarter were $0.9 million compared to approximately $2.7 million in the second quarter of 2015.

Cost of revenue was $12.1 million, compared to $13.5 million in 2015. The Company incurred approximately $0.1 million in additional staffing costs, including contract labor, and approximately $0.1 million in additional service and supply costs, primarily as a result of new customers.  Equipment costs decreased by approximately $1.6 million, largely as a result of the decrease in equipment revenues.  Gross profit for the second quarter of 2016 was $3.1 million, or 20% of revenues, compared to $2.1 million or 14% of revenues, for the same period in 2015. The increase in gross margin is due to the maturation of previously announced large contracts.

Operating expenses for the second quarter were $2.4 million, a decrease of $0.4 million compared to the second quarter of 2015. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 10% due to decreased marketing spend when compared to the same period in 2015. General and administrative expenses decreased 14% to $1.6 million. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is attributed to approximately $0.3 million of fees associated with the two acquisitions made in 2014 and 2015.

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2016, was $0.6 million, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.6 million, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, in the same period of 2015. The Company achieved an adjusted income from operations of $0.9 million or $0.04 per basic and diluted share in the second quarter of 2016, compared to an operating loss of $0.3 million or $0.01 per basic and diluted share in the second quarter of 2015, after excluding charges in both periods of $0.2 million related to stock-based compensation and amortization of intangibles.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reported revenues of $29.7 million, a marginal increase when compared to $29.5 million reported in the same period of 2015. The Company added approximately $5.9 million of new recurring service revenue contracts, offset by a decrease of $3.2 million in equipment revenue, compared to the same period in 2015.

Cost of revenue was $24.3 million compared to $25.2 million in 2015 representing a decrease of 4% or $0.9 million. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2016, was $5.4 million, or 18% of revenues, compared to $4.2 million, or 14% of revenues, for the same period in 2015.

Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2016, were $4.8 million, a decrease of 1% from $4.9 million in the same period of 2015. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 10% due to lower compensation expense and reduced marketing spend. General and administrative expenses increased 3% to $3.4 million due to amortization expenses from the acquisition of Redspin.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $0.5 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.7 million, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, in the same period of 2015.
