“Fiscal year 2023 was an exciting year
for our business. Our results represent the significant progress made across our organization, highlighted by our highest annual organic
revenue growth in more than a decade and first year of GAAP profitability since fiscal 2015,” said Roy W. Olivier, President and
CEO of Research Solutions. “Our customers continue to recognize the greater efficiency and cost savings offered through our Article
Galaxy platform and our recent acquisition of ResoluteAI expands these offerings and capabilities, providing us with meaningful cross-selling
opportunities. While we continue to see headwinds in the platform business, we are optimistic about our fiscal year 2024 and look to
continue to grow the business organically as well as through strategic M&A.”
Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2023 Results
Total revenue increased 16% to $10.0 million,
compared to $8.6 million in the same year-ago quarter.
Platform subscription revenue increased 22% to
$2.3 million compared to approximately $1.9 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily due to an increase in upsell
activity within our existing customer base and an increase in the total number of paid Platform deployments, including 20 added in the
quarter. The quarter ended with annual recurring revenue of $9.4 million, up 4% sequentially and 19% year-over-year (see the company's
definition of annual recurring revenue below).
Transaction revenue was up 15%, increasing to
$7.7 million, compared to $6.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Transaction customers count for the quarter was 1,404, compared
to 1,213 customers in the prior year quarter (see the company's definition of active customer accounts and transactions below).
Total gross margin improved 110 basis points
from the prior-year quarter to 39.4%. The increase was primarily driven by a continued revenue mix shift to the higher-margin Platform
business.
Total operating expenses were approximately $3.7
million, a $62,000 decrease from the fourth quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales and marketing expenses.
Net income in the fourth quarter was $376,000,
or one cent per diluted share, compared to a net loss of ($438,000), or two cents per share, in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA
was $825,000, compared to ($121,000) in the year-ago quarter (see definition and further discussion about the presentation of Adjusted
EBITDA, a non-GAAP term, below).
Full-Year Fiscal 2023 Results
Total revenue increased 14% to $37.7 million,
compared to $32.9 million in fiscal 2022.
Platform subscription revenue was $8.7 million,
a 28% increase over the prior year. The increase was due to upselling current platform customers and an increase in the total number
of paid Platform deployments.
Transaction revenue was $29.0 million, an 11%
increase compared to the previous year. The increase is primarily due to organic growth and also the acquisition of certain customer
contracts from FIZ Karlsruhe which became effective in the third quarter of fiscal 2023.
Total gross margin improved 250 basis points
over the prior year to 39.0%. The increase was primarily driven by a continued revenue mix shift to the higher-margin Platform business.
Total operating expenses were $14.5 million compared
to $13.7 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to higher stock compensation expense related to the transition to
a new program that the Company views as better aligned with shareholders’ interests.
Net income for fiscal year 2023 was $572,000,
or $0.02 per diluted share. Net loss in fiscal 2022 was $1.6 million, or ($0.06) per share. Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2023 was a positive
$2.0 million, compared to a negative $374,000 in the prior year (see definition and further discussion about the presentation of Adjusted
EBITDA, a non-GAAP term, below).
Cash and cash equivalents on June 30, 2023, amounted
to $13.5 million compared to $10.6 million as of June 30, 2022. There were no outstanding borrowings under the company's $2.5 million
revolving line of credit and the company had no long-term liabilities or other debt.

Use of Non-GAAP Measure – Adjusted EBITDA
Research Solutions’ management evaluates and makes operating
decisions using various financial metrics. In addition to the company’s GAAP results, management also considers the non-GAAP measure
of Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure provides useful information about the company’s operating results.
The tables below provide a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial
measure with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), plus interest expense,
other income (expense), foreign currency transaction loss, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation,
gain on sale of discontinued operations, and other potential adjustments that may arise. Set forth below is a reconciliation of Adjusted
EBITDA to net income (loss):
