BELLEVUE, WA--(NewMediaWire - May 24, 2016) - CoroWare,
Inc. (OTC
PINK: COWI) today announced its financial results for the
year ended on Dec. 31, 2015 ("the 2015 Period").
For the 2015 Period, CoroWare reported revenues of $5,461,238,
compared to revenues of $1,943,729 during the year ended December
31, 2014 (the "2014 Period"), an increase of $3,517,509 or
181.0%.
Revenues in the 2015 Period were higher compared to the 2014
Period as the Company intensified its focus on selling R&D
support, operations support, and marketing support services in the
2015 Period.
"CoroWare experienced significant growth as the Company
intensified its focus on selling R&D support, operations
support, and marketing support services," said Lloyd Spencer, CEO
of CoroWare, Inc. "In the coming year, CoroWare shall continue to

efforts in the areas of Internet of Things (IoT) and augmented
reality."

$628,347 or 135.6%
The gross profit percentage in the 2015 Period was 20.0%
compared to 23.8% in the 2014 Period. The decrease in gross profit
percentage relates to higher cost of delivering these services due
to increased labor expenses, and weaker sales of its Robotics &
Automation products, solutions and services.
Total Operating Expenses were $1,086,438 for the 2015 Period
compared to $2,585,036 for the 2014 Period, a decrease of
$1,498,598 or 57.9%. General and administrative expenses were
$850,285 during the 2015 Period, compared with $2,379,736 for the
2014 period, and represented labor and related compensation costs,
legal and professional fees, outside services, travel expenses,
rental expense and related office expenses.
Sales and marketing expenses were $81,463 for the 2015 Period
compared to $86,380 for the 2014 Period. Research and developments
costs totaled $146,284 for the 2015 Period compared to $106,842
during the 2014 Period. Depreciation and amortization costs were
$8,406 for the 2015 period compared to $12,078 for the 2014
Period.
Income (loss) from operations was $5,410 for the 2015 Period
compared to $(2,121,535) for the 2014 period. The increase in
income from operations in the 2015 Period was due primarily to a
significant decrease in general and administrative
expenses.
Net loss for the 2015 Period was $2,307,396 compared to net loss
of $7,939,101 for the 2014 Period, a decrease of $5,631,705 or
70.9%. The decreased loss during the 2015 Period was principally
due to a reduced change in derivative liabilities. The change in
derivative liabilities is associated with CoroWare's convertible
debentures; as the derivative liability increases, the derivative
expense increases.
