Richard Ransom, President, stated, "Over the last year, our sales and marketing platform has expanded far beyond our traditional direct response television model. Today ICTV is proud to partner with over ten major North American retailers which distribute our flagship product DermaWand, as well as several of our other brands. We feel the investment in our omni channel platform has laid the foundation for ICTV to bring new products to market all around the globe. The work our team has done in this respect has positioned us to make the announced acquisition of the PhotoMedex consumer assets, including the world renowned no!no! hair removal brand, and creates the ability for ICTV to take advantage of similar opportunities in the future."
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were $4.2 million, compared to $3.6 million in the prior year quarter, and $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2016. The year over year increase is attributable to higher media related expenditures, increased international sales and retail and e-commerce sales as the Company continues to broaden its media footprint with its push into additional e-commerce and retail outlets in the fourth quarter. Total selling and marketing expenses increased to $2.3 million from $2.0 million in the prior year quarter. Significant quarterly increases include media expense of $238,000 and internet marketing of $153,000, which were offset by decreases in production expense of $78,000.

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $12.5 million, decreasing from $19.7 million in the prior year period as a result of a decrease in media related expenditures. Total selling and marketing expenses decreased to $6.6 million from $10.0 million, decreasing as result of media expense decreases of $2.5 million, answering and customer service decreases of $821,000, and merchant fee decreases of $188,000.
