VANCOUVER, B.C., May 22, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Moventis Capital, Inc. (OTCBB:MVTS), an acquisition and management company that acquires small and medium-sized private enterprises (SMEs) and provides resources and management to promote growth and enhance valuation, today announced financial results for the fiscal 2007 third quarter ended March 31, 2007. Highlights include 39% growth in revenue and a 47% increase in net income over the same period in the previous year for portfolio company PTL Electronics, Ltd. (PTL), Moventis' first private-company acquisition.
Fiscal third-quarter results are consolidated and include operations of PTL, which was acquired for US$6.1 million on November 22, 2006. Pro-forma results for PTL for the three months ended March 31, 2007, include revenues of CDN$4,034,594 (US$3,443,661) with EBITDA of CDN$516,950 (US$441,234) and net income of CDN$415,178 (US$354,368), representing a 39% increase in revenue and a 47% increase in net income compared to the same period in fiscal 2006, when PTL recorded revenue of CDN$2,905,776 (US$2,517,349) and net income of CDN$282,747 (US$244,951).
Chief Executive Blake Ponuick commented: "We're pleased with PTL's continuing growth and performance in the fiscal third quarter. Moreover, with approximately US$5 million in purchase orders already scheduled for fulfillment in the fiscal fourth quarter, we look forward to a strong year-end close for fiscal 2007."
On a GAAP basis, Moventis' fiscal third-quarter consolidated revenues were US$3,443,661 with EBITDA of US$78,328 after accounting for stock-based compensation of US$69,400. Net loss for the period was US$100,559. For the third quarter of fiscal 2006, Moventis was engaged in seeking acquisitions and did not record any revenue and reported a net loss of US$217,277.
Ponuick added: "Reflecting our business strategy, we are seeking to acquire additional private companies offering similar growth and profit profiles. We continue to see attractive multiples in the private equity market that would not only benefit our consolidated results going forward but help build value for Moventis shareholders.
"We continue to feel that providing pro-forma selected financial data for our portfolio companies, albeit on a non-GAAP basis, provides shareholders with a better view of the financial performance of these assets and therefore public-market valuation potential," Ponuick said.
Moventis began consolidating operations with PTL as of the acquisition date of November 22, 2006. The Company is providing the pro-forma quarterly year-over-year results for PTL solely for the purpose of communicating the growth trend of its portfolio company asset to investors and shareholders.
