MIAMI, FL — (Marketwired) — 12/16/13 — Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. (OTCQB: BIMI), a Brazil-based, interactive TV entertainment, production and broadcasting company, today announced its third quarter results for the period ended September 30, 2013, as reported in its most recent Form 10-Q filing.
For the three months ended June 30, 2013, Brazil Interactive Media reported revenue of $1.79 million and a net loss of ($702,868) vs. revenue of $909,740 and a net profit of $27,763 for the same period 2012. Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $6.029 million and net loss of ($759,097) vs. revenue of $2.87 million and a net loss of ($135,498) for the same period 2012.
Brazil Interactive Media-s CFO Jesus Quintero stated, “While we are pleased with our solid top-line growth, we experienced a decline in gross profit and net income during the quarter. First, we incurred certain media buys which did not produce the expected call minutes and revenue, due to technical issues within the system of our previous primary co-billing telecom partner, which negatively impacted our gross profit margin. In addition, we had several non-cash expenses associated with the issuance of our common stock, which had a further negative impact on net income.”
Tim Psomiadis, Brazil Interactive Media-s CEO, added, “We are very excited to announce a change in our primary telecom partner to IP Corp., which should positively impact our revenue beginning in Q4 of 2013. Our new billing rate with IP Corp. is 2.5x greater than our previous primary telecom partner-s rate, increasing our per-minute call revenue from US$0.19 per minute to US$0.50 per minute. We are also pleased that our co-billing agreement with IP Corp. now provides both parties with exclusivity, greatly enhancing our ability to increase revenue. We believe this important relationship will assist us in maintaining our current growth rate into 2014.”
