Media Advisory: NXT-ID Demo's Wocket™ Smart Wallet Financial Transaction

SHELTON, Conn., June 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- NXT-ID, Inc. (OTCQB: NXTD), a biometric authentication company focused on the growing m-commerce market, releases a video of the next generation smart wallet, Wocket™, designed to replace all the cards in your wallet, executing a financial transaction.

Mr. Gino Pereira, CEO of NXT-ID, Inc. explains step-by-step how to make a Wocket transaction:

"All your important personal information is secured on a tamper-proof encrypted chip on your Wocket, so if you were to lose your wallet, there is no payment information available to be stolen. Using your Wocket is simple:

1. To access a card for payment, you would first verify your identity by using a spoken password (Wocket recognizes your voice), or by entering a PIN or image on the touch screen.

2. Touch the drop-down menu at the top left of the screen. You will see a list of categories such as debit, credit, loyalty etc. and select the appropriate category.

3. Choose the card you wish to use on the touchscreen and remove the WocketCard from your Wocket.

4. Swipe your WocketCard as you would any regular credit card.

Wocket is also capable of producing a "wocket number" which is a one-time use encrypted card number to prevent skimming attacks and protect your private card information. This technology can also be applied to online transactions, making card processing much more secure using today's existing payment infrastructure."

Aware, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2014 Financial Results

BEDFORD, Mass., July 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Aware, Inc. (NASDAQ: AWRE), a leading supplier of biometrics software and services, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2014.

Revenue for the second quarter of 2014 was $6.8 million, an increase of 53% compared to $4.4 million in the same quarter last year. Operating income before patent related income in the second quarter of 2014 was $1.4 million compared to $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2013. The increase in revenue and operating income was driven by higher sales of software licenses, software maintenance, services, and hardware.

Income from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2014 was $0.9 million compared to $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2013.  Net income in the second quarter of 2014 was $0.9 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, which compares to net income of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the same period a year ago.  Net income in the year ago quarter included a $158,000 loss from discontinued operations.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, revenue increased 42% to $13.4 million, compared to $9.4 million in the same period a year ago.  Operating income before patent related income for the first six months of 2014 and 2013 was unchanged at $2.7 million.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $1.7 million, or $0.08 per diluted share. These results compared to net income of $2.2 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago. Net income in the year ago six month period included $780,000 of income from a patent arrangement less a $273,000 loss from discontinued operations.

Rick Moberg, Aware's co-chief executive officer and chief financial officer, said, "The second quarter was an eventful quarter for us in three respects.  First, we were able to deliver solid operating earnings despite increased spending on new product development initiatives. Second, our engineering teams continued to make progress in the accuracy and scalability of our biometric matching technology which currently is offered through our NEXA product line.  And thirdly, we announced that we were going to pay a $1.75 special cash dividend in July 2014. We hope to carry the momentum we saw in the first six months of 2014 into the second half of the year."
