Document Security Systems Reports Second
Quarter of 2014 Financial Results
ROCHESTER, NY — August 12, 2014 — Document Security
Systems, Inc. (NYSE MKT: DSS) (DSS), a leader in anti-counterfeiting and authentication solutions, reported results for the
second quarter ending June 30, 2014.
Q2 2014 Operational Highlights
| · | Delivered
first fully-integrated AuthentiGuard customer for DSS’ secure digital application
and labeling. |
| · | Filed
a patent infringement lawsuit against Lenovo (United States), Inc. in the District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas, with the case currently in the pleadings stage. |
| · | Acquired
approximately 90 active patents covering certain methods and processes in the semiconductor
industry, bringing the company's patent portfolio to more than 120 active patents issued
in the U.S. and abroad, and 25 patent applications pending. |
| · | At
quarter end, the company had seven active disputes at various stages of the monetization
process. |
Q2 2014 Financial Highlights
Revenue for the second quarter of 2014 increased 14% to $4.9
million from $4.3 million in the same year-ago quarter. Printed product revenue, which includes sales of packaging, printing and
plastics, increased 15% to $4.4 million from $3.8 million in the same year-ago period. Technology sales, services and licensing
revenues increased 4% to $476,000 from $458,000 in the year-ago period.
Costs of goods and expenses totaled $7.1 million, an increase
of 16% from $6.1 million in the same year-ago period. The increase primarily reflected depreciation and amortization costs of
$1.3 million for Q2 2014 compared to $229,000 in the same year-ago period. This increase was partially offset by a 69% decrease
in stock-based compensation expense during Q2 2014.
Cost of goods sold, excluding depreciation and amortization,
increased 26% to $3.2 million compared to $2.5 million in the same year-ago period, driven by a higher percentage of packaging
sales as a percentage of total printed products sales in the second quarter of 2014.
Adjusted EBITDA loss, a non-GAAP metric defined as earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation, as well as other non-recurring items, totaled
$633,000 compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $171,000 in the same year-ago period (see further discussion about the use of
adjusted EBITDA, below). The increase in adjusted EBITDA loss reflected higher professional fees incurred for the company’s
IP monetization business in Q2 2014 compared to the year-ago quarter, where the majority of the professional fees were incurred
from the company’s merger with Lexington Technology Group (LTG) in July 2013.
Net Loss totaled $2.3 million or $(0.06) per basic and
diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $1.9 million or $(0.09) per basic and diluted share in the second quarter of 2013.
Management Commentary
“We saw a particularly strong sequential increase in
revenue in the second quarter, driven by demand for our printed products, including the timing of certain packaging orders that
slipped from Q1 to Q2,” said Jeff Ronaldi, the company’s CEO. “Looking at our results on a comparative first
half basis, revenue was a record overall for the first six months of the year, up 6% from the same period a year ago.
“Q2 was also highlighted by our first fully-integrated
AuthentiGuard sale to a customer for printing and hosting, along with the customized mobile application. This win reaffirms the
strong value proposition of our AuthentiSuite platform, especially when integrated with our secure printing and packaging capabilities.
“Along those lines, our sales team has been effectively
building and expanding our AuthentiGuard pipeline of prospective customers. We are currently in varying stages with several national
brands about implementing our AuthentiGuard technology.
“AuthentiGuard is an ideal representation of our business
model, which involves developing and acquiring IP that enables us to bring innovative product and service offerings to market,
while actively licensing our IP portfolio.
“A major goal for us this year and going forward is to
grow and diversify our intellectual property portfolio. Since 2012, we have systematically expanded our patent portfolio from
15 issued patents to more than 120 active patents today, along with seven active cases on file. Looking ahead, we expect to have
10 cases on file by yearend and at least 15 by the end of 2015. Our expectations for the future remain high as we build upon the
momentum we’ve established and pursue the widening pipeline of opportunities ahead.”
Intellectual Property Enforcement
DSS provided an update on the status of its six intellectual
property cases:
| · | Document
Security Systems, Inc. v. Coupons.com Incorporated (6:11-cv-06528-CJS-MWP) |
In October 2011, DSS initiated litigation against
Coupons.com alleging, among other things, that Coupons.com misused DSS’s proprietary block-out technology in violation of
the terms of a nondisclosure agreement between the parties. On July 10, 2014 the US District Court for the Western District of
New York heard oral arguments in connection with Coupons.com’s motion for Summary Judgment. No decision has been rendered
yet on the motion.
| · | Bascom
Research, LLC v. Facebook, Inc., LinkedIn Corporation et al (CAND-3-12-cv-06293; CAND-3-12-cv-06294) |
In October 2012, Bascom Research, a subsidiary of
Lexington Technology Group, Inc. (LTG), which was acquired by DSS in July 2013, initiated litigation with Facebook, Inc., LinkedIn
Corporation and three other defendants in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. The complaint alleged infringement
by the defendants of four patents that are instrumental to social and business networking technology and related to the manner
in which users and application developers on the Facebook and LinkedIn platforms make connections between “objects”
such as photos, people, events and pages.
In January 2013, all five cases were transferred
to the US District Court for the Northern District of California. In April and May of 2013, LTG announced that Bascom Research
had reached settlements with two of the named defendants. Currently, Facebook and LinkedIn remain as defendants in the litigation.
On January 15, 2014, these two cases were stayed
by the US District Court for the Northern District of California pending the outcome of Alice Corp v. CLS Bank in the United States
Supreme Court, which was decided on June 24, 2014. Following this decision, a case management conference was scheduled for August
22, 2014, at which time the parties will propose timetables for the remainder of the case.
On May 22, 2014, Facebook, Inc. filed a Petition
for Covered Business Method (CBM) Patent Review with the USPTO’s Patent Trial and Appeal Board. Bascom Research has until
September 3, 2014 to file a preliminary response to the CBM petition.
| · | VirtualAgility,
Inc. v. Salesforce.com, Inc. et al* (TXED-2-13-cv-00011) |
On March 5, 2013, Lexington Technology Group (now
DSS Technology Management) made a strategic investment in VirtualAgility, Inc.
On January 5, 2013, prior to DSS’s investment,
VirtualAgility initiated litigation against Salesforce.com and a number of Salesforce’s customers in the US District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas. VirtualAgility’s complaint against Salesforce.com alleges infringement of one of five
VirtualAgility patents that enable user-friendly programming platforms that facilitate the creation of sophisticated business
applications without programming.
On February 12, 2014, the United States Court of
Appeals for the US Circuit overturned a decision rendered by the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, and granted
a temporary stay of the case in light of Salesforce.com’s Petition for Covered Business Method (CBM) Patent Review pending
before the USPTO’s Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB).
On July 10, 2014, a three-judge panel of the US
Circuit issued a divided opinion granting a stay pending the CBM proceedings. Oral argument in the CBM proceeding was held on
July 14, 2014.
| · | DSS
Technology Management, Inc. (DSSTM) v. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Ltd.
(TSMC) et al (TXED-2-14-cv-00199) |
On March 10, 2014, DSSTM initiated litigation with
TSMC, Samsung Electronics Co. Inc., and NEC Corporation of America in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
DSSTM’s complaint against these companies alleges infringement of DSS patents relating to a semiconductor manufacturing
process called “double-patterning.”
On June 24, 2014, TSMC filed a petition for Inter
Partes Review (IPR) with the USPTO Patent Trial and Appeal Board, and DSSTM has until October 17, 2014 to file a preliminary response.
| · | DSS
Technology Management, Inc. (DSSTM) v. Apple, Inc. (TXED-6-13-cv-00919) |
On November 29, 2013, DSSTM initiated litigation
against Apple, Inc. in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. DSSTM’s complaint alleges infringement by
Apple of DSS patents that relate to systems and methods of using low power wireless peripheral devices.
On March 3, 2014, Apple filed a motion to transfer
venue of the case from the Eastern District of Texas to the Northern District of California, which is pending a ruling by the
District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
| · | DSS
Technology Management, Inc. (DSSTM) v. Lenovo (United States), Inc. (TXED-6-14-cv-00525) |
On May 30, 2014, DSSTM initiated litigation against
Lenovo (United States), Inc. in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. DSSTM’s complaint alleges infringement
by Lenovo of DSS patents that relate to systems and methods of using low power wireless peripheral devices. The case is currently
in the pleadings stage.

About the Presentation of Adjusted
EBITDA
The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial performance
measurement. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by the Company by adding back to net income (loss) interest, income taxes, depreciation
and amortization expense as further adjusted to add back stock-based compensation expense and non-recurring items, such as costs
related to the Company’s merger with Lexington Technology Group. Adjusted EBITDA is provided to investors to supplement
the results of operations reported in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool
for investors to use in comparing its financial results with other companies in the industry, many of which also use Adjusted
EBITDA in their communications to investors. By excluding non-cash charges such as amortization, depreciation and stock-based
compensation, as well as non-operating charges for interest and income taxes, investors can evaluate the Company's operations
and its ability to generate cash flows from operations and can compare its results on a more consistent basis to the results of
other companies in the industry. Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate potential acquisitions, establish internal budgets
and goals, and evaluate performance of its business units and management. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA to be an important
indicator of the Company's operational strength and performance of its business and a useful measure of the Company's historical
and prospective operating trends. However, there are significant limitations to the use of Adjusted EBITDA since it excludes interest
income and expense and income taxes and non-recurring items such as costs related to the Company’s merger with Lexington
Technology Group, all of which impact the Company's profitability and operating cash flows, as well as depreciation, amortization
and stock-based compensation. The Company believes that these limitations are compensated by clearly identifying the difference
between the two measures. Consequently, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income
and loss presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA as defined by the Company may not be comparable with similarly named
measures provided by other entities. The following is a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA loss:
