Monica Iancu, MIND CTI’s Chief Executive Officer, commented: “2021 was a record year for MIND’s revenue. As previously announced, our messaging segment was favorably impacted by campaigns carried out by a few customers. The unprecedented growth we encountered in Q2 and Q3, in our messaging segment, was temporary in nature. The messaging markets, unlike our traditional ones, are difficult to predict, as external factors have a strong impact on both revenues and margins. As the proportion of our messaging business, out of our total revenue, increases, we expect our business results to present higher volatility in revenues, margins, and cash flows compared to past years. Our telecom markets continue to be challenging, with low demand and strong competition, and we expect to eventually experience negative business impact from these continuous trends.

“The political situation in Eastern Europe (Ukraine) is very sad but has no immediate direct effect on our business, as we have no operations and no customers in Russia or Ukraine.

“It is our strategy to pursue acquisitions that could be a source of growth, as well as to continue with our dividend policy, and at the same time invest in new technologies to enhance our offering.”

Revenue Distribution for Q4 2021 Revenues in Europe represented 53% (including the Message Mobile and GTX revenues in Germany that represented 42%), revenues in the Americas represented 38%, and revenues in the rest of the world represented 9% of our total revenues.

Revenues from our customer care and billing software were $2.9 million, or 48% of total revenues, revenues from enterprise messaging and payment solutions were $2.5 million, or 42% of total revenues, and revenues from our enterprise call accounting software were $0.6 million, or 10% of total revenues.

Revenues from maintenance and additional services were $5.6 million, or 93% of total revenues, while revenues from licenses were $0.4 million, or 7% of total revenues.

Revenue Distribution for Full Year 2021 Revenues in Europe represented 56% (including the Message Mobile and GTX revenues in Germany that represented 45%), revenues in the Americas represented 36%, and revenues in the rest of the world represented 8% of our total revenues.

Revenues from our customer care and billing software were $12.1 million, or 46% of total revenues, revenues from enterprise messaging and payment solutions were $12.0 million, or 46% of total revenues, and revenues from enterprise call accounting software were $2.2 million, or 8% of our total revenues.

Revenues from maintenance and additional services were $24.8 million, or 94%, compared to $22 million or 94% of total revenues in 2020, while revenues from licenses were $1.5 million, or 6% of total revenues, compared to $1.4 million, or 6% of total revenues in 2020.

Dividend Distribution Since July 2003, when we first adopted a dividend policy, we performed 19 distributions, including one special dividend. We continue to believe that our annual dividends enhance shareholder value.

The record date for the dividend will be March 24, 2022 and the payment date will be April 6, 2022. Tax will be withheld at a rate of 22%.
