Advantex Marketing International Inc. ("Advantex" or the "Company") (CNSX:ADX),
a leading specialist in merchant funding and loyalty marketing programs, today
announced its results for the fiscal fourth quarter and year ended June 30,
2012. All references to quarters or years are for the fiscal periods and all
currency amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.
"It is encouraging to report an increase in revenues and net income. The Company
increased merchant participation because it satisfies a need in the small
merchant space for cost effective loyalty marketing and business intelligence
which enables merchants to retain their existing business and target new
business - critical tools in today's economy - and provides merchants access to
unsecured working capital. For its partners, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce
("CIBC"), and Aeroplan Canada Inc. ("Aeroplan"), Advantex is their entry into
the small merchant world and enables them to deliver extra value to their
customers and members. The partners continue to give Advantex access to new
business segments which allows Advantex to expand merchant participation.
Advantex is uniquely placed to be a valuable partner to other service providers
who wish to sell their services to small merchants," said Kelly Ambrose,
Advantex President and Chief Executive Officer.
Financial Highlights:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fiscal 2012 Fiscal 2011 Fiscal 2010
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Revenues $15,896,000 $13,523,000 $11,961,000
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Earnings from operations before
amortization and interest (EBITDA
(i)) $ 3,214,000 $ 2,152,000 $ 2,451,000
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net Income/(Loss) $ 227,000 $ (492,000) $ 34,000
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
(i) EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which does not have any
standardized meaning prescribed by the issuer's GAAP and is unlikely to be
comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. In case of the
Company, for Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, per consolidated financial
statements for year ended June 30, 2012, earnings from operations before
amortization and interest from continuing operations plus net income/(loss)
from discontinued operations is the nearest equivalent to EBITDA. For Fiscal
2010, per consolidated financial statements for year ended June 30, 2011,
contribution from operations and profit before amortization and interest
from continuing operations plus profit/(loss) from discontinued operations
is the nearest equivalent to EBITDA.
"The Company expects to increase merchant participation and is confident of its
future financial performance. Agreements with CIBC, Aeroplan, providers of debt
- debentures and line of credit facility - expire ten to fourteen months from
now and we expect to successfully negotiate renewals," said Mr. Ambrose.
