Financial Results
Revenue for the three-months ended September 30, 2013 was $1.31 million compared
to $826 thousand in the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, an increase
of 59%. Project revenue made up 65% of total revenue; the remaining revenue came
from follow on sales to existing customers. These sales include service and
maintenance billings and replacement products including wireless devices and
communication equipment.
Bookings for the quarter were $1.12 million down 12% compared to $1.27 million
in the three-month period ended September 30, 2012. Management believes this is
due in part to timing following the record bookings ($1.60 million) in the first
quarter of fiscal 2014. (Bookings year to date were up 19% at $2.72 million.)
At September 30, 2013 Vigil had a backlog of approximately $3.26 million
(including $1.45 million in deposits and progress billings, recorded as deferred
revenue on the balance sheet) a 20% increase compared to approximately $2.72
million (including $836 thousand in deposits and progress billings, recorded as
deferred revenue on the balance sheet) at September 30, 2012. At September 30,
2013, Vigil's backlog included 38 projects at varying stages of installation and
progress billing with an average project size of $86 thousand. This was up
slightly from the 37 projects with an average value of $74 thousand at September
30, 2012. Projects can include individual buildings or floors of multiple phase
campus construction.
The gross margin percentage for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was
45% compared to 49% for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Gross margin
was within management's usual expectations of margins of between 42% and 47%.
Margins have been higher in previous quarters due to a large number of one off
sales, which usually have better margins due to the lower labour component.
There were also a number of projects in the current quarter that included
subcontractor labour which is usually lower margin.
Expenditures for the three months ended September 30, 2013 were $577 thousand,
up 59% from $363 thousand for the period ended September 30, 2012. The increase
is primarily due to increased compensation costs reflecting higher staffing
levels. Staffing is now back to normal levels similar to those seen prior to the
recession.
Net income for the three month period ended September 30, 2013 was $22 thousand,
or $0.001 per share compared to income of $32 thousand, or $0.002 per share for
the previous year. The profitable quarter follows an increase in all operating
costs as staffing levels and related expenses return to normal levels. The
decline in profitability relates to the small decrease in gross margin year over
year as well as the increase in operating costs.
Detailed financial statements along with Management Discussion and Analysis have
been filed with SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
Financial information will be mailed to entitled security holders on November
29, 2013. Or, upon notice to the Company, entitled security holders may request
a copy of financials in advance.

Non-IFRS Measure
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, we are disclosing Adjusted
EBITDA, a non-IFRS financial measure, as a supplementary indicator of operating
performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before, interest, income
taxes, amortization, stock based compensation and currency gains or losses
including derivative foreign exchange differences. We are presenting the
non-IFRS financial measure in our filings because we use it internally to make
strategic decisions, forecast future results and to evaluate our performance and
because we believe that our current and potential investors and analysts use the
measure to assess current and future operating results and to make investment
decisions. It is a non-IFRS measure, may not be comparable to other companies
and it is not intended as a substitute for IFRS measures.
