Discussion of First Quarter Achievements

During the first quarter 2011 management's efforts were focused on repositioning Information Systems Associates (ISA) from a passive professional services company into a proactive selling organization focused on higher margin Mobile Data Center Management software based on ISA's proprietary and patented technology, building reoccurring revenue streams and turnkey data center management solutions. The preceding bullet points cover the success of these efforts. On top of these transitional efforts the Company managed to book approximately $100,000 in revenue for the first quarter ending March 31, 2011. 

Looking Forward for 2011

Management expects the repositioning and infrastructure changes implemented in the first quarter will begin to drive sales in the third quarter 2011 due to the software sales cycle in Global 2000 organizations and then accelerate revenue growth in the fourth quarter of 2011. It is also anticipated that an Alpha version of the Company's next generation Mobile Data Center Management software application will be unveiled in September of 2011. Pre-sales of this industry changing tool is planned for the fourth quarter of 2011 with the official release in the first quarter of 2012.

Joe Coschera, Information Systems Associates' CEO, said, "We are very pleased with our accomplishments in the first quarter. Now that a vast majority of the repositioning efforts are behind us, management can direct its resources on business development and revenue opportunities. Most importantly, it is a very significant mile stone for the company to have established a sales force and built a significant pipeline in such a short period of time."
