Fiscal 2012 Full Year Financial Highlights
Revenue for the year of $22.7 million compared to $23.7 million in fiscal 2011. The majority of change in year on year revenue was due to a $0.7 million decrease in one-time software installation fees from the previous year.
Transactional revenue was $17.7million, compared to $18.1M for the same period last year.
Transactional revenue comprised 78% of total revenue for the year.
Generated a loss after income taxes of $4.1 million for the year, compared to a profit of $1.1 million in fiscal 2011. $1.8 million of the loss resulted from the Company recording income tax expense, compared to the recognition of an income tax recovery of $1.3 million during fiscal 2011.
Also contributing to the current period loss was non-cash impairment charges of $77,000 and $540,000 recorded in relation to our goodwill and intangible assets. These non-cash charges relate primarily to underperforming revenues associated with previously capitalized costs for our social stationery product offering, as well as changes in estimates in relation to the recoverability of goodwill.
Generated non-IFRS adjusted EBITDA1 of $1.5 million, compared to $3.6 million in fiscal 2011.
The Company ended the year with $4.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and no debt.

Notes:
1 - Non-IFRS Measures
The Company continues to provide all information required in accordance with IFRS, but believes evaluating its ongoing operating results may not be as useful if an investor is limited to reviewing only IFRS financial measures. Accordingly, the Company uses non-IFRS financial information to evaluate its ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. The primary non-IFRS financial measures utilized by the Company include adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is non-IFRS financial measure which the Company defines as net profit plus amortization, impairment, interest expense, tax expense, share-based compensation expense and unrealized foreign exchange loss (gain).
To supplement the Company's financial statements presented on an IFRS basis, we believe that these non-IFRS measures provide useful information about the Company's core operating results and thus are appropriate to enhance the overall understanding of the Company's past financial performance and its prospects for the future. These adjustments to the Company's IFRS results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of the Company's underlying operational results and trends and performance. Management uses these non-IFRS measures to evaluate the Company's financial results, develop budgets, manage expenditures, and determine employee compensation. The presentation of additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for or superior to net (loss) earnings or net (loss) earnings per share determined in accordance with IFRS.
