Roomlinx Reports 2014 First Quarter Results
DENVER, CO--(Marketwired -
May 14, 2014) - Roomlinx, Inc. (OTCQB: RMLX) (OTCQB:
RMLXP), the innovative developer of media networks and
interactive TV (iTV) applications for the hospitality industry,
today announced financial results for the three months ended March
31, 2014.
In the first quarter of 2014, recurring monthly hospitality
revenue increased 5.5% over the same period in 2013 while total
revenue decreased 19% to $1.6 million compared to 2013. This
decrease was primarily related to the decrease in new equipment and
installation revenue which approximated $420,000 for the quarter
ended March 31, 2014 vs. 2013.
As of March 31, 2014, the Company was servicing approximately
64,000 RGUs within the hospitality sector, a 10% increase over the
number of RGUs being serviced as of March 31, 2013. An RGU is
defined as a product or service for which the Company invoices the
hotel monthly, including interactive television, video on demand,
free to guest programming, and high speed internet
access.
For the three months ended March 31, 2014, Roomlinx reported a
net loss of $0.5 million, compared to a net loss of $1.3 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a reduction of net loss
of $0.8 million. The decrease in net loss is attributable to
an increase in revenues less direct costs approximating $0.2
million and the effect of our cost reduction and containment
program resulting in a decrease in operating costs of $0.6
million.
Adjusted EBITDA improved $0.8 million to negative $250,000 for
the quarter ended March 31, 2014 versus negative $1.05 million for
the same period in 2013. This improvement was due to the cost
reduction and containment program implemented in
2013. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization expense adjusted for the loss
on discontinued operations, non-cash charges for stock based
compensation, and non-cash gains or losses resulting from the
settlement of liabilities.
Roomlinx financial highlights for the quarter ended March 31,
2014 include the following:
- Improved Adjusted EBITDA $0.8 million year-over-year.
- Operating costs decreased $0.6 million year-over-year.

year-over-year.
