"Revenue was up 24 percent over 2005, the heavy investment cycle that had suppressed our earnings began to normalize during the second half of the year, and we ended the year with backlog at $53.2 million, an all-time high. I'm especially pleased that both current revenue and longer-term recurring revenue backlog increased during the second half of the year. The dual strategy of increasing the number of products and services we deliver to big banks and productizing our industry-leading solutions for smaller financial institutions is working well. We look forward to continued improvement this year and we're excited about the opportunities that lie ahead."

  • In 2006, Corillian received certification under the new international security standard ISO:27001, which replaced the British Standard BS:7799 in October 2005. ISO:27001 is the most widely recognized international framework and standard for developing and certifying a company's security management system. Corillian is the first online banking company to receive the certification and was among a select group of only eight organizations in the U.S. to receive this international honor.


Financial Outlook

The company anticipates that first quarter 2007 revenues will be in the range of $14.5 to $16 million and GAAP EPS will range from a net loss of ($0.04) to ($0.01) per diluted share. Per share non-GAAP results are expected to range from a loss of ($0.02) to a profit of $0.01. Corillian expects lower profitability in the first quarter due primarily to seasonally higher payroll-related costs and a change in the mix of work related to subscription-based projects. Corillian expects continued improvement in profitability throughout 2007, consistent with our performance in 2006.

Reconciliation of GAAP results to non-GAAP Results

  • Stock-based compensation
  • Amortization of intangible assets
