Vancouver, BC, June 19, 2012--(T-Net)--Vigil Health Solutions Inc. (VGL.V) announces the results of operations for the fiscal year and the fourth quarter, ending March 31, 2012.
Highlights
"Vigil saw the second consecutive year of improved sales bookings. The increase was not sufficient to maintain revenue numbers which continue to be affected by the lower bookings seen in the last two years. Therefore, while we remain confident in the strong fundamentals of the senior living industry, in the latter part of fiscal 2012 we took steps to scale operations and expenses to meet the current level of demand. We believe we have a superior product and a dedicated team committed to delivering the best in innovation and customer service and we now need to see a sustained recovery in senior housing construction," stated Troy Griffiths, President and CEO of Vigil Health Solutions Inc.
Financial Results
Bookings for the year ended March 31, 2012 were $3.73 million up from $3.57 million in the year ended March 31, 2011.
At March 31, 2012 Vigil had a backlog of approximately $1.93 million (including $394 thousand in deposits and progress billings, recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet) up 34% from $1.43 million (including $521 thousand in deposits and progress billings, recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet) at March 31, 2011.
Vigil records revenue following completion of the installation and commissioning of the product at the customer site which is indicated by customer acceptance. The timing of the installation of Vigil's products is often dependent on facility construction schedules, which can result in a considerable lag between receipt of contracts and revenue recognition. The Company's backlog includes all contracts signed including those in progress but not completed.
Revenue for the year ended March 31, 2012 was $3.37 million compared to $4.38 million in the year ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of 23%. The effect of the ongoing new construction slump and decreased bookings in prior periods depressed revenue in the current fiscal. In fiscal 2011 the effect on revenue of historically low levels of senior construction was mitigated by the recognition of the largest sale in Vigil's history ($770 thousand). Project revenue made up 61% 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 sensors, wireless devices and communication equipment and were up 8% over fiscal 2011.
The gross margin percentage for the year ended March 31, 2012 was 46% compared to 42% for the year ended March 31, 2011. Gross margins are in line with management's expectations of annual margins of between 42% and 47%.
Operating expenditures for the year ended March 31, 2012 were $1.98 million up 6% from operating expenditures of $1.87 million for the same period ended March 31, 2011. Reflecting the historically low levels of construction still being seen in senior housing, the Company reduced operating cost in the last two quarters and anticipates further reductions in fiscal 2013.
Losses for the year ended March 31, 2012 were $425 thousand, or $0.036 per share, compared to $70 thousand, or $0.014 per share, for the previous year. The increased losses relate to the lower revenue however the majority of the loss ($307 thousand) occurred in the first two quarters prior to the Company decreasing operating expenses.

Non-IFRS Measure
For the year ended March 31, 2012, 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.
