TaxAct Revs Up 9 Percent
TaxAct, the tax preparation software company purchased by InfoSpace, had pro forma revenue of $61.9 million a 9-percent increase from $56.8 million for the first quarter ended March 31. TaxAct, purchased on January 31 contributed only two months of actual results to its Bellevue, Wash.-based parent.
Actual results for the tax business included operating income of $22.1 million for the tax business on $4.4 million for the first quarter. Net income for Infospace was $11.4 million, up from $1.3 million in last year's corresponding period. TaxAct's operating margin of 55 percent was in line with the results the company had when it was independent. Infospace had $115.7 million in revenue. The rest of revenue comes from its search products, such as Metacrawler.
