Exhibit 99.1

Ipsidy Announces Results for Year Ended December 31, 2019

AYear of Continued Progress Building Trusted Identity

LONG BEACH, N.Y., March 30, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ipsidy Inc. (www.ipsidy.com) [OTCQB:IDTY] which operates an Identity as a Service (IDaaS) platform that delivers a suite of secure, mobile, biometric identity solutions, available to any vertical, anywhere, today announced its results for the year ended December 31, 2019.

FinancialResults for the Year Ended December 31, 2019

Total<br> revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $2.6 million compared to $3.8 million<br> for the year ended December 31, 2018. The results in 2018 reflected the one-time supply<br> of Search™, our<br> Automated Fingerprint Identification System, to the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission, offset<br> by revenue increases in 2019 from new products and Cards Plus.
Net<br> loss for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $10.5 million compared to a net loss of<br> $10.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, principally as a result of a non-cash<br> charge for goodwill impairment loss of approximately $1.5 million.
--- ---
Basic<br> and fully diluted net loss per share for both years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018<br> was $0.02 cents.
--- ---
Adjusted<br> EBITDA loss for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $6.4 million compared to an Adjusted<br> EBITDA loss of $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, as the Company invested<br> in the technical and operational resources required to support on-going and future operations.
--- ---
Secured<br> approximately $3.6 million of additional equity and convertible debt investment during<br> 2019 and a further $1.5 million of convertible debt investment in February 2020.
--- ---

Refer to Table 1 for reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure).

Everything starts with trusted identity. Our identity platform offers a suite of mobile biometric identity services that our customers can use to verify identity (Proof^TM^) and authenticate transactions (Verified™) across multiple use cases, thereby creating trusted transactions.

We continued to make progress during 2019 in executing our Trusted Identity strategy. Ipsidy ran pilots and workshops with a number of reseller and technology partners and potential customers. We developed new implementation and deployment models in response to customer and market demands. The Identity solutions market is rapidly developing and increasing demand for verifying digital identity during remote onboarding and digital transactions can be seen in our pipeline. While remote working and secure access to corporate networks are not new, the scope and speed at which society is now moving workers and students to the virtual office or classroom, is staggering. We believe our products and services are well equipped to help those organizations adopting remote working and learning, and substantially improve how they can confidently grant access only to those who are entitled to such access.

The Company’s highlighted activities included the following:

Signed<br> LOI with local partners in the United Arab Emirates to establish business and operations<br> and commenced sales activities in pursuit of a number of specific opportunities.

Launched Proof,<br> our new identity proofing solution and made it available through Ipsidy’s new Identity<br> Portal and via integration.
--- ---
Launched Time™,<br> a mobile solution for tracking time & attendance with biometric & geo-location<br> certainty

We are carefully watching developments related to COVID-19 and have considered a variety of potential scenarios. Day to day operations have been somewhat impacted, by the requirement for all employees to work from home, for which we were already substantially prepared, and we are working to mitigate any impact to our customers and employees and are continually updating our plans as the situation develops. The extent to which Covid 19 will impact our customers, business, results and financial condition will depend on current and future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time.  We appreciate the support of our employees, partners and customers in these difficult times.

Additional analysis of the Company’s performance can be found in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed at www.sec.gov and posted on the Company’s investor relations website.

Non-GAAPFinancial Information.

The Company provides certain non-GAAP financial measures in this statement. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provides useful information about our period-over-period results. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it provides additional information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities and is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. We also rely on Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of our company and our management team in connection with our executive compensation. These non-GAAP key business indicators, which include Adjusted EBITDA, should not be considered replacements for and should be read in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net loss adjusted to exclude: (1) interest expense, (2) interest income, (3) provision for income taxes, (4) depreciation and amortization, (5) stock-based compensation expense (stock options and restricted stock) and (6) certain other items management believes affect the comparability of operating results. Please see Table 1 below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
