WEEHAWKEN, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 31, 1998--Icon CMT Corp. (NASDAQ: ICMT), the tier one Internet Solutions Provider offering value-added Internet, intranet and extranet solutions for businesses and corporations, today reported its results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 1997. These results, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed today with the Securities Exchange Commission, were consistent with the preliminary results previously included in Icon CMT's Registration Statement filed in connection with its initial public offering on February 12, 1998.
Revenues grew strongly in both the quarter and for the full year ended December 31, 1997, as Icon CMT posted its best ever quarterly and annual revenues. Total revenues reached $16.7 million in the fourth quarter of 1997, an increase of 55% over the $10.8 million reported for the fourth quarter of 1996. Services revenues grew by 113% and products revenues increased by 28% over the comparable period.
For the year, Icon CMT achieved record total revenues of $47.0 million, a 23% increase over revenues of $38.1 million for 1996. As the Company continued to execute its strategy of delivering recurring value-added Internet services, services revenues increased by 177%, while third party product resale revenues declined by 20%.
The net loss for the fourth quarter and for the year were also consistent with the Company's previously announced preliminary results. The net loss for the fourth quarter was $3.9 million, or $0.66 per share, compared with $2.5 million, or $0.40 per share, for the fourth quarter of 1996. The net loss for the year was $13.0 million, or $2.17 per share, compared to $8.0 million, or $1.31 per share, for 1996. Per share amounts represent both the basic and diluted loss per share and are based on 6,545,454 weighted average common shares outstanding for each period presented. Common stock equivalents that are antidilutive are excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share.
On February 18, 1998, the Company completed its Initial Public Offering (IPO), selling 3,850,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $10.00 per share providing gross proceeds to the Company of $38.5 million. Upon the completion of the IPO, all outstanding shares of the Company's Series A and Series B Preferred Stock converted into an aggregate of 4,629,831 shares of common stock. On a pro forma basis, the loss per share for the three months and for the year ended December 31, 1997 was $0.35 and $1.39, respectively, based on 11,175,329 and 9,347,355 weighted average common shares outstanding.
