ITEX Announces Results for Third Quarter of Fiscal 2007

Operating income increases 16% to $423,000

 

Net Cash provided by Operating Activities increases 31% to $577,000

 

Bellevue, WA May 30, 2007 ITEX Corporation (OTCBB: ITEX), The Membership Trading CommunitySM, a leading marketplace for cashless business transactions in North America, today filed its Form 10-QSB with the Securities and Exchange Commission reporting its results for its fiscal 2007 third quarter ended April 30, 2007.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities and operating income showed strong gains this quarter even though we recognized a 5% decline in revenue from the same period last year. We attribute the decline in revenue primarily to the continued consolidation of broker offices and member accounts since the acquisition of BXI. said Steven White, Chairman and CEO.  Our margins, costs and expenses are right where they should be; allowing us to invest in our technology and revenue growth initiatives while we continue profitable operations.  Revenue growth is our number one priority. We introduced our new Executive Privileges Program to our franchise network at the end of the third quarter which we anticipate will assist franchisees in registering new member businesses and retaining existing members.  Increased member growth and retention will translate into increased transaction volume, revenue and net income.
