Mitek Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2013 Financial Results
| • | Signed 708 financial institutions to date with 318 customers live as of Dec. 31, 2012 |

| • | Increased Mobile Deposit® transaction usage over 25% for third consecutive quarter |

SAN DIEGO – January 31, 2013 – Mitek Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MITK; www.miteksystems.com), a leading mobile imaging software solutions provider, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, which ended December 31, 2012.
“We had a strong start to fiscal 2013 with record bookings for our Mobile Photo Bill Pay product and strong bookings for Mobile Deposit and our entire suite of mobile imaging products. We continue to see strong market demand for our flagship Mobile Deposit product with over 25% increase in transaction usage for the third consecutive quarter,” said James B. DeBello, president and CEO of Mitek. “With 708 banks signed to date, including the nation’s top retail banks, our mobile imaging market presence continues to grow. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013 we signed 144 banks and saw a record number of Mobile Deposit customer launches, which we believe is a leading indicator of our long-term growth. Importantly, we signed US Bank as our first major customer for Mobile Photo Bill Pay, and we look forward to their commercial launch early this year. We also continued to build our IP portfolio with the issuance of our sixth mobile imaging patent issued.”
Total revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was $3.3 million compared to total revenue of $3.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company signed a number of large software licenses for its Mobile Deposit, Mobile Photo Bill Pay and other mobile imaging products; however, a portion of the revenue from these licenses is recurring in nature and will be recognized in future periods.
Mitek Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2013 Financial Results
GAAP net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was $1.4 million, or $0.05 per share, compared to GAAP net income of $26,000, or breakeven on a per share basis, in the first quarter of 2012.
Non-GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2013 was $700,000, or $0.03 per share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $453,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
Total operating expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 were $4.7 million compared to $3.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in total operating expenses was primarily driven by higher investments in personnel to grow the business, sales and marketing expenses and R&D associated with product development.
The Company ended the first quarter of fiscal 2013 with cash, cash equivalents and investments of $15.1 million, compared to $14.6 million at the end of fiscal 2012.
Highlights
| • | Signed a strategic mobile imaging partnership with US Bank to deliver the first Mobile Photo Bill Pay product to US Bank customers in early 2013. |
| • | Sixth mobile imaging patent issued to the Company by the USPTO, bringing the total number of issued patents to 13 with 14 additional patents pending. |
| • | Announced more than 20 prepaid card initiatives from some of the most innovative banks, large retailers and wireless carriers by making the process of loading prepaid cards simple and easy with Mitek’s intelligent mobile imaging technology. |

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This news release contains non-GAAP financial measures for non-GAAP net (loss) income and non-GAAP net (loss) income per share that exclude stock compensation expenses. These financial measures are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In evaluating the Company’s performance, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to supplement financial statements prepared under GAAP. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide a useful measure of the Company’s operating results, a meaningful comparison with historical results and with the results of other companies, and insight into the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Further, management and the Board of Directors utilize these non-GAAP financial measures to gain a better understanding of evaluating the Company’s comparative operating performance from period-to-period and as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financials, are useful to investors because they provide a basis for meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s ongoing operating results, including results of operations, against investor and analyst financial models, identifying trends in the Company’s underlying business and performing related trend analyses, and they provide a better understanding of how management plans and measures the Company’s underlying business.
