RESTON, Va., May 3 /PRNewswire/ -- InteliData Technologies Corp. (Nasdaq: INTD), a leader in Internet banking and bill payment technology, today reported its unaudited financial results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000.  Highlights include:     (Photo:  NewsCom:  newscom.com )
      *  Recognition of a large gain from an investment securities transaction        resulting in net income for the quarter of $35,426,000 or $0.93 per        share     *  Signing of a letter of intent with Spectrum selecting the team of        InteliData and ALLTEL to build an Interactive Financial Exchange (IFX)-        based network electronic bill payment switch     *  Installation of software, full customer launches, and beginning of        recurring revenue collection at National City Bank and Old Kent Bank     *  Leasing of additional office space and significant growth of R&D        capabilities
      Revenues for the quarter were $2,619,000, representing a 23 percent gain compared to $2,124,000 for the same period last year.  Net income for the quarter was $35,426,000, or $0.93 per share, inclusive of a one-time gain realized from the sale on January 20, 2000 of InteliData's investment in Home Financial Network to Sybase, for which InteliData received cash and Sybase common stock.  Accounting rules require that this gain be reported entirely in the quarter that the transaction closed.      Operating loss for the quarter was $(3,275,000), compared to a net loss of $(1,564,000) in the prior year period, representing the increased investment in personnel and facilities to support the increased level of activity from the Spectrum and outsourcing initiatives.  As a result, 30 additional software engineers and supporting staff and an additional 7,500 square feet of office space in Reston, Va., were added during the quarter.     The Company's cash position at the end of the first quarter was $11,135,000.  The Company also owns approximately 1.77 million shares of Sybase common stock, which is carried on the Company's books at quarter-end at a value of approximately $36 million.
      Overview of Operations     Commenting on the Company's first quarter and subsequent activities, InteliData President and CEO Al Dominick said, "This quarter's income statement marks the beginning of recurring revenues associated with the full customer launches of our Internet banking and bill payment outsourcing solution at National City and Old Kent banks.  Adding the recently announced customer launches at First Hawaiian Bank and Bank of the West in April, the universe of potential users for our outsourcing business is approximately four million consumers.  These banks are at the beginning stages of launching the offering to their customers and have provided us with showcase sites and positive reference accounts.  They also have begun to provide us a recurring revenue stream, which should enable us to better predict our revenues.  For those banks that use our full service bureau solution, we will realize revenues in the range of $5.00 to $2.00 per customer, per month, and between $0.70 and $0.30 per customer, per month, for our Web hosting service."     Dominick continued, "Spectrum's selection of the InteliData and ALLTEL team to build the IFX switch for their bank network illustrates the industry's acceptance of our technology and the recognition of the electronic bill presentment and payment (EBPP) experience and capabilities of the two companies.  We believe it is the commencement, not the culmination, of our joint efforts in the EBPP arena.  Our vision for the industry is to provide banks with a turnkey suite of products and services designed to allow banks to efficiently "trade" transactions by taking advantage of interbank payment exchanges as they have done historically in the ATM and paper check clearing systems."     Looking ahead, Dominick concluded, "Our improved financial condition as a result of the Sybase transaction has positioned us well to capitalize on the opportunities in the current electronic banking marketplace.  In addition to our increased R&D efforts, we also previewed our leading-edge consumer interface software, Interpose? Web Banking, and plan to be installed at a beta site this summer."
