PREO SOFTWARE INC. (the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:PKM). The Corporation is
pleased to announce that at the annual and special meeting of shareholders held
on August 23, 2011, along with the incumbent directors, Richard Groome was
elected as a director of the Corporation. Mr. Groome is the Managing Partner of
Notre-Dame Capital Inc., specializing in equity financings for small and
mid-size emerging growth companies in the the technology, oil and gas,
manufacturing and mining sectors.
The Corporation also announces that it has granted 30,000 options at an exercise
price of $0.15 to Mr. Groome. The options are subject to the terms of the
Corporation's Stock Option Plan and approval of the TSX Venture Exchange Inc.
"We are absolutely thrilled to have someone of Mr. Groome's stature join our
board", said Gary McCone, President and CEO.
The Corporation is pleased to report the following summary highlights for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2011:
-- A 77% increase in second quarter revenues and a 117% increase in year to
date revenues generated from Software Licenses as compared to the same
period last year.
-- Gross Margins improved to 89% during the six months ended June 30, 2011.
-- Net Loss during Q2 2011 was 65% lower than Q2 2010 ($199,466 vs
$563,836) and 43% lower on a year to date basis. The decrease was the
result of higher revenues, higher margins and receipt of AVAC funding
which offset research and development as well as sales and marketing
expenses incurred during the current quarter.
-- During the first half of the year, the Corporation closed on a private
placement of convertible debentures for gross proceeds of $1,200,000.
-- The Corporation's gross cash and cash equivalents totaled $909,560 at
June 30, 2011, an increase of $466,559 over the $443,001 available at
December 31, 2010. Working capital was $706,523 (current ratio of
2.38:1) at June 30, 2011 compared to a negative working capital position
of $(787,350) (current ratio of 0.21:1) at June 30, 2010.
-- During the quarter, the Corporation entered into an agreement to license
Preo's Printelligence MPS technology to a major office solutions
company.
"As we shift to an entirely indirect channel strategy, there is no doubt that we
will forgo some short term direct revenue opportunities during our transition,
but given the size and quality of partners and interest we are able to generate,
I am convinced this decision is the right one", said Gary McCone, President and
CEO.
