Given our recurring revenue model and strong gross margins, we are particularly energized by the revenue upside from these newly established client trials with well-known brands. We're also very excited to have expanded our SmartSMS product to now include a Facebook Messenger bot, thereby expanding our relevance beyond SMS text messaging to Facebook's millions of end users. With a stronger balance sheet from our recent warrant conversion financing, expanded product and IP portfolio and entry into new markets, our focus is now shifting to 2017 and capitalizing on this progress to accelerate growth."

3rd Quarter 2016 Financial Results:

Revenue for Q3 2016 was $2.2 million, representing an increase of 70% from $1.3 million in Q3 2015. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to significant continuing growth in SMS and SmartReceipt® revenues contracted with large enterprise customers.

Gross margin was 72% in Q3 2016, as compared to 78% for Q3 2015. Gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was 73% compared to 75% for the same period in 2015. The decrease in gross margin for the third quarter is principally due to higher cloud-based software licensing fees, short code maintenance expenses, personnel-related costs, and other expenses as they relate to the increase in revenues.

Operating expenses (excluding goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges) for Q3 2016 were $3.1 million compared to $2.4 million in Q3 2015. The year over year increase in operating expenses is primarily due to higher personnel costs as a result of hiring and staffing to support growth, as well as the LiveLenz acquisition.

Operating loss for the quarter was $(1.6 million) compared to $(1.4 million) in the corresponding period in the prior year. Comprehensive loss for Q3 2016 was $(1.6 million), or $(0.05) per diluted share, compared to $(1.3 million), or $(0.05) per diluted share in Q3 2015.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Loss, a non-GAAP metric (see note on non-GAAP Measurements) was $(901,000) for Q3 2016 compared to $(867,000) in Q3 2015.

Non-GAAP Measurements

This press release includes certain financial information which constitutes "non-GAAP financial measures" as defined by the SEC. A full reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to GAAP can be found in the tables of today's press release. Non-GAAP adjusted net income is supplemental to results presented under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP measures are used by management to facilitate period-to-period comparisons and analysis of Mobivity's operating performance and liquidity. Management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in trending, analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of Mobivity's business. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other similar measures reported in accordance with GAAP.
