Our Subscribers Say...

I think Credit Today is fantastic. You cover many practical topics in the credit field that I use regularly. Just one recent example—a conversation on the ListServ about preferential payments—gave me tips that I used in an actual case. The specific information I picked up from this one discussion saved me $10,000, enough to cover my membership for many years!
- Steve Savino
Manager of Credit & Collections, ASSA Abloy Americas Division, New Haven, CT

Credit Today's Resource Directory and their online e-mail forum (ListServ) provide information on almost any credit-related topic you can think of. It is a great way to exchange information with other credit professionals. As the saying goes, "You don't know what you don't know."
- Scott Goen, Credit Manager, Big Lots Stores, Inc., Wholesale Division

"We've recently started using the ListServ tool within Credit Today. This is phenomenal and powerful forum for gaining immediate feedback, ideas, and suggestions, relative to any credit topic under the sun, all in a real-time e-mail format."
-Javier Vela, Senior Credit Manager, Global Credit Services, JDA Software Group Inc.

"Being a part of the Credit Today online community is like having the expertise of hundreds of credit managers at your fingertips. These credit execs are willing to help you solve topical business issues as they arise. In the current environment of ever increasing competing priorities which reduce our opportunities to meet peers out of the office face-to-face, this is the most valuable tool you can have on your desktop! It's important that we have a mechanism to reach out to our counterparts quickly to exchange knowledge as well as to stay on top of industry trends."
- Victoria Artis, Director of Customer Financial Services, Pfizer, Inc.

"Over the last 10 years I've seen Credit Today evolve from a monthly credit publication into a quality source of information and guidance for the B2B credit community. The website, with its user friendly form downloads, will take you from examples of new account credit applications to bankruptcy forms and everything in between.

The Credit Today ListServ has become the pre-eminent online forum, providing an opportunity for discussion and comments (and occasional humor) from an impressive list of credit professionals."
David Dungan, Director of Credit
Justin Brands, Inc. (A Berkshire Hathaway company)
Fort Worth, Texas

"There are numerous credit periodicals available to the credit professional today. How good is Credit Today? Is it relevant? I always have to read it late, or online because my credit analysts want to read it the minute it comes in. When my staff wants to read a publication before I have a chance to read it then something is working in that publication. We have cancelled our other subscriptions. When you have the best you do not need the rest."
Ron Woods
Corporate Credit Manager-World Wide
Thales Navigation, Inc.

"The newsletter, coupled with the website and the ListServ, are to us, more valuable than any other credit publication, bar none. I try to use at least one article out of each newsletter for departmental training/discussion sessions."
D. Mark Constantine
Corporate Credit Mgr
Fulton Paper Company

"I love Credit Today and read every issue cover to cover. For me, the greatest perk of a subscription is ListServ. I believe Credit Today's ListServ members may be the most knowledgeable Credit brain trust in existence today. I have saved and categorized hundreds of contributions on a wide variety of topics which I refer to often. It's an easy and cost effective way to network and learn."

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

VALLEY COTTAGE, NY--February 23, 2011 -- CreditRiskMonitor (Symbol: CRMZ) announced that for the year ended December 31, 2010 revenues increased 19% to $9.34 million and income from operations was $1.68 million versus $813,000 last year.

Jerry Flum, CEO, said, "We had strong cash flow, resulting in a record year-end cash, cash equivalent and marketable securities balance of $6.85 million at December 31, 2010 compared to $4.68 million at December 31, 2009, and we continue to operate the Company without debt. However, we were unable to maintain the pace of revenue growth that we achieved during the credit crisis years of 2008/9. Year-over-year net income and net income per share declined, due to the Company's nonrecurring reversal of its tax valuation allowance during the fourth quarter of 2009." The tax expense recorded in 2010 does not result in any cash liability because of the availability of unexpired net operating loss ("NOL") carry-forwards. This expense reduces the recorded deferred tax asset and at December 31, 2010, the Company had NOL carryforwards aggregating approximately $2.1 million, expiring in varying amounts over the next sixteen (16) years.

Other income, net 23,443 13,893

Income before income taxes 1,700,340 826,614
Benefit (provision) for state and local income taxes (687,030) 908,960

Net income $ 1,013,310 $ 1,735,574

Income before income taxes per share of common stock**:

Basic $ 0.22 $ 0.11

Diluted $ 0.20 $ 0.10

Net income per share of common stock:

Basic $ 0.13 $ 0.22

Diluted $ 0.12 $ 0.21

** Denotes non-GAAP financial measure. Because of the Company's reversal of its valuation allowance during the fourth quarter of 2009, as the Company had sufficient evidence to conclude that it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards prior to their expiration, the calculation of the Company's benefit (provision) for income taxes is not comparable between years. Accordingly, we feel that reporting pre-tax earnings per share is a better measure in this instance even though this is a non-GAAP financial measure.
