VALLEY COTTAGE, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 05/10/12 -- CreditRiskMonitor (OTCQB: CRMZ) (PINKSHEETS: CRMZ) reported that revenues increased 8% to $2.65 million for the 3 months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $2.44 million in last year's first quarter. Operating income for the quarter was $83,000, down from $219,000 in the prior year period. Cash and marketable securities increased $383,000 since 2011 year-end, to nearly $8.7 million.
Jerry Flum, CEO, said, "The Company continues to invest in building its sales and service staff, enhancing infrastructure, adding new data, and creating new tools for subscribers. For example, we added a new suite of reporting and analysis features to our service, creating a new reason for more of our subscribers to contribute their accounts receivable ("A/R") files to CRMZ. Adding more of this proprietary A/R data makes our credit reports on both public and private companies more useful. We believe that these and similar uses of cash will enhance our long-term results, but the increased expenses penalize our profitability in the short term."
