Alphinat Announces Its Results for Fiscal Year Ended August 31, 2015


MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Dec. 18, 2015) - Alphinat Inc. (TSX VENTURE:NPA) announces its results for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2015.

At the beginning of the year under review, Alphinat has a sales presence in Toronto and Paris. During the third quarter of Fiscal 2015, the company proceeded to centralizing its sales structure in favour of a commercialization program centered on innovation and distribution partners. This action plan that started to deliver positive results as of the third quarter and is focused on three key objectives:

  1. Profitability: reduce expenses that are outside of headquarter operations;
  2. Quality: improve quality assurance of SmartGuide projects implemented by our clients and partners; and
  3. Innovation: finalize version 6 of SmartGuide that delivers additional productivity gains and agility to our clients for the development of their mobile web and Cloud applications.

Despite the early challenges we faced in 2015, Alphinat managed to meet important strategic objectives with the vertical packaging of three solutions built with SmartGuide. Two of these solutions, built by partners, are currently being commercialized in SaaS mode to municipalities and State level governments. Another solution, built by Alphinat, targets the financial services industry and will be the focus of a targeted SaaS commercialization campaign in 2016.

During the year under review, the Company has revised its criteria application for revenue recognition of license sales products as part of an agreement with a retailer. In light of its business practices with this retailer, it concluded that one of the criteria was not reached beyond doubt on some of the products license sales recorded during the year ended August 31, 2014. Consequently, the Company adjusted downward its licenses sales for the previous year, in the amount of $170,833 and increased the balance of its opening deficit of the same amount. This is explained by the fact that the increased scope of certain projects have lead to modified delivery terms.

For the 12-month period ended August 31, 2015, the Company recorded total revenue of $1,437,821 compared to $1,673,905 for the same period in 2014. The net loss for fiscal 2015 was $(395,592) or $(0.008) per (averaged outstanding) common share compared to a net loss of $(402,451) (restated) or $(0.008) per (averaged outstanding) common share in fiscal 2014.
