ImageWare Systems Issues Corporate Update

SAN DIEGO, CA — (Marketwired) — 03/16/16 — ImageWare Systems, Inc. (OTCQB: IWSY) (ImageWare), a leader in mobile and cloud-based, multi-modal biometric identity management solutions, has issued financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2015, as well as a corporate update to highlight the company–s progress since its last quarterly update on November 16, 2015.

ImageWare Systems partnered with Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise, to integrate ImageWare–s GoVerifyID with Aruba–s ClearPass Policy Manager — a multi-vendor, wired and wireless network access security solution for mobile and loT devices.

Received a notice of allowance from the United States Patent and Trademark Office that its “Multi-Modal Biometric Database Searching Methods” patent will be granted. This will represent ImageWare–s 11th U.S. patent.

“During the fourth quarter, we continued to make progress with our go-to-market partnership strategy,” said Jim Miller, ImageWare–s chairman and CEO. “As announced earlier this month, we integrated our GoVerifyID with Aruba–s ClearPass Policy Manager — a wired and wireless network access security solution used to manage over 65 million endpoint users. Not only does this partnership enable us to reach a large population on a global scale, it was also structured very differently compared to our past partnerships. In this instance, we were able to integrate the product and make ready for sale within a couple of days.

“From this point forward, we plan to execute our partnerships in the same manner in order to get our products out to the commercial market as fast as possible. We believe ImageWare offers the best all-around biometric product and according to Gartner, the world–s leading IT research company, 30% of organizations will use biometric authentication for mobile devices by this year. With the biometric space beginning to move into the mainstream, we believe that all the right pieces of the puzzle are in place for ImageWare to grow our business.”

Total revenues in the fourth quarter of 2015 were $0.9 million compared to $1.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, with the decrease primarily due to reduced software royalty revenue from our channel partners for our traditional identification card software.

Gross margin in the fourth quarter of 2015 was 40.2% compared to 79.0% in the fourth quarter of 2014. The decline was due to the write-off in the quarter of capitalized project expenses as their recoverability became questionable.

Net loss in the fourth quarter of 2015 was $2.6 million or $(0.03) per basic share, compared to a net loss of $1.9 million or ($0.02) per basic share in the fourth quarter of 2014.

At December 31, 2015, cash and cash equivalents totaled $3.4 million compared to $0.2 million at December 31, 2014. The increase is a result of the company–s convertible preferred offering completed in February 2015.

ImageWare will hold a conference call today at 11:00 a.m. Eastern time (8:00 a.m. Pacific time) to discuss its fourth quarter 2015 results. The company–s Chairman and CEO Jim Miller and CFO Wayne Wetherell will host the conference call, followed by a question and answer period.
