Doug Croxall, Chief Executive Officer of Marathon, stated, "While pleased with our record year to date revenues, our third quarter was unsurprisingly very light. While there were revenue opportunities, we remain unwilling to compromise what we believe to be reasonable licenses to try and impact a particular quarter. It''s for that reason we''ve always advised that our financial performance should be evaluated on an annual basis, as opposed to quarterly.
Croxall concluded, "As discussed on our previous earnings call, we continue to refocus our revenue generation on licenses that provide a recurring revenue feature. The recurring revenue may take the form of fixed quarterly or annual payments by licensees to Marathon and should help investors better model future revenue potential."
