IDI, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2015 Results


IDI, Inc. (NYSE MKT: IDI), an information solutions provider and multi-platform media company, today announced its financial and operating results for the first quarter of 2015 ending March 31, 2015.

Following the merger of Tiger Media, Inc. and The Best One, Inc. (TBO), completed on March 21, 2015, TBO was named the accounting acquirer. As a result, IDI, Inc.'s first quarter financial results reflect TBO and its wholly owned subsidiary, Interactive Data, LLC (News - Alert), and Tiger Media's results of operations only during the period from March 22, 2015 to March 31, 2015 and deemed insignificant. In addition, as IDI Holdings, LLC (f/k/a The Best One, Inc.) was formed on September 22, 2014, no comparative figures during the corresponding period in 2014 are presented.

Key highlights for the first quarter of 2015 include:

  • Completion of the acquisition of TBO and creation of the new data fusion division to drive future growth.
  • Completion of the Seattle-based technology team and the initial development of new data products.
  • Total Revenue of $1.3 million, which was driven by the new data fusion division.
  • Net loss was $1.7 million due to increased personnel and development costs.
  • Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2015 were $7.3 million, compared to $4.2 million at 2014 fiscal year end.

Mr. Derek Dubner, Co-CEO of IDI, Inc. stated, "We are pleased to report that we have entered 2015 with a team and infrastructure that we believe can drive an entirely new level of growth opportunities for our Company. The strategic acquisition of TBO enabled us to successfully transition our business into the multi-billion dollar data fusion market where we can immediately begin defining IDI as a leading player. We believe that the collective experience of our management team, our established information technology platform and our ability to deliver unparalleled data analytics and linking technology to a number of diverse markets offers an incredible opportunity for growth in the months ahead."

IDI, Inc. will maintain an advertising services division for established business and new opportunities within the out-of-home advertising industry but will focus future growth on its data fusion division. It has already carved a niche within the Accounts Receivable Management ("ARM (News - Alert)") industry and will now target the entirety of the risk management market to serve today's growing data fusion needs.
