VALLEY COTTAGE, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 11/08/12 -- CreditRiskMonitor (OTCQX: CRMZ) reported that revenues were $2.82 million and $8.21 million for the 3 and 9 months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, an increase of 9% over the comparable periods last year. For the same periods, income from operations was $442,000 and $724,000, respectively, compared to $249,000 and $736,000 for the comparable 2011 periods. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at the end of the nine-month period increased $1.16 million to $9.44 million from the 2011 year-end balance of $8.28 million.
Jerry Flum, CEO, said, "We're still growing sales in spite of the current difficult economic environment. Our short-term results continue to be negatively impacted by our continued investment in infrastructure and new data content, as well as the addition of new employees to improve our service. Although this strategy impacts profitability in the short-term, we believe our long-term prospects are enhanced. Our balance sheet is strong, allowing us the flexibility to manage our company toward longer-term goals which create greater shareholder value."
