Segment Results
The Company has three operating segments, which consist of Crexendo Network Services, Crexendo Web Services and StoresOnline.
Crexendo Network Services
Revenue for the first quarter of 2014 increased 148% to $955,000 compared to $385,000 for the first quarter of the prior year. Network Services backlog, which is anticipated to be recognized within the next thirty-six months, was $7.2 million at March 31, 2014 compared to a backlog of $3.5 million at March 31, 2013.
Total Network Services segment operating expenses for the first quarter of 2014 increased 52% to $2.5 million compared to $1.6 million for the first quarter of the prior year.
Total Network Services segment loss before income taxes for the first quarter of 2014 increased 21% to $(1.5) million compared to $(1.2) million for the first quarter of the prior year.
Crexendo Web Services
Revenue for the first quarter of 2014 decreased 53% to $252,000, compared to $533,000 for the first quarter of the prior year. We anticipate that our revenue from our web service segment will continue to decline due to our strategic decision to limit our provision of web services to our enterprise-sized customers. As a result of this shift in focus, our backlog has decreased to $208,000 at March 31, 2014 compared to $1.3 million at March 31, 2013. This shift in focus will allow us to focus on our rapidly growing Network Services segment and to concentrate more on our website hosting segment and website development software platform.
Total Web Services segment operating expenses for the first quarter of 2014 decreased 59% to $478,000 compared to $1.2 million for the first quarter of the prior year.

Total segment income before income taxes for the first quarter of 2014 decreased 91% to $110,000 compared to $1.2 million for the first quarter of the prior year.
Steven G. Mihaylo, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "This has been a fulfilling quarter for us. The legacy revenues continue to decline and in Q2 most of the collections will be completed. 2014 will be the first year where most of the sales will be generated from the new telecom hosting model and our web hosting business. We continue to make strides and are maximizing efficiencies with our direct sales force, while continuing to add resources to our dealer network. Although we have been making progress, we still have work to do. The backlog for Q1 2014 rate of growth was lower in comparison to Q4 2013. We believe that is due in part to a number of customers that rushed to complete the contracting process before year end including some large orders at the end of 2013. Therefore, we had a strong finish in Q4 2013 followed by Q1 2014 weakness. The first month of Q2 2014 is looking like Q2 will be a more consistent quarter. I am encouraged in our ongoing efforts particularly in both the caliber and enthusiasm of our direct sales force and our dealer partners. We continue to see our dealer partner channel grow and contribute higher sales and become a reliable, consistent and important part of our Company and our sales growth."
Mihaylo added, "I continue to monitor our expenses very carefully and stress to our team, that we need to watch every penny. We will continue to grow the business both organically and through accretive acquisitions. We have several acquisitions that we are reviewing now. I am confident that we will continue to find appropriate acquisitions, we will see improvements in our direct sales and the continued growth of our dealer program will be the key to bring us to continued growth."
