Following the Concuity sale, we will have a strengthened balance sheet of over $50 million cash and will target growth in our core Financial GRC business.  Our outlook for the fiscal year 2011 is for robust growth of 10% in revenues and continued earnings growth as the global economy recovers with encouraging signs of market confidence and stability building in the US and internationally in our target markets.”

Paul Byrne, President, added, “Trintech’s business continues to deliver strong adjusted EBITDA growth, which has been driven by increasing operational efficiencies, and improved productivity and asset utilization, as our solutions continue to drive value for our clients. With the definitive agreement for the sale of the healthcare division, we expect to drive additional value for our clients through a singular focus on the Financial Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) market. Combining this focus with our already highly profitable operating model and a strong balance sheet, Trintech is positioned for sustained profitable growth.”

Results Overview:

Revenues from continuing operations for the year ended January 31, 2010 were $32.5 million compared to $34.3 million for the year ended January 31, 2009, a decrease of 5%. Revenues from continuing operations for the fourth quarter ended January 31, 2010 remained unchanged compared to the revenues from continuing operations for the corresponding quarter in the prior year at $7.9 million.

Software license revenues from continuing operations for the year ended January 31, 2010 were $20.1 million compared to $19.6 million for the year ended January 31, 2009, an increase of 3%. The increase was primarily due to stronger GRC license sales in the US and some international markets. Continued economic uncertainty in some European markets is negatively impacting our normal sale cycles, with customers becoming more cautious, procurement processes lengthening and general uncertainty creating significant challenges to close new business.  Maintenance revenues from continuing operations continued to be strong from existing customers in the US.

Service revenues from continuing operations for the year ended January 31, 2010 were $12.3 million compared to $14.7 million for the year ended January 31, 2009, a decrease of 16%. The decrease was primarily due to a fall in professional service revenues from our GRC business in the US and European markets and a higher professional service revenue backlog available in the prior year.

Total gross margin from continuing operations for the year ended January 31, 2010 was $23.6 million, a decrease of 3% from $24.4 million for the year ended January 31, 2009. The overall gross margin percentage from continuing operations increased by 2% in the 2010 fiscal year to 73% from 71% in the 2009 fiscal year. Total gross margin from continuing operations for the fourth quarter ended January 31, 2010 was $5.7 million, an increase of 4% from $5.5 million in the corresponding quarter in the prior year. Gross margin percentage from continuing operations increased to 73% in Q4 of the 2010 fiscal year compared to 70% in the same period of the prior year. The increase in margin and margin percentage in Q4 and for the 2010 fiscal year was due to higher license revenues and a lower percentage of lower margin service revenues compared to the prior year periods.

Total operating expenses from continuing operations for the year ended January 31, 2010 were $21.2 million, a decrease of 15% from $25.1 millionin the previous year. Total operating expenses from continuing operations for the fourth quarter ended January 31, 2010 were $4.7 million, a decrease of 16% from $5.6 million in the corresponding quarter in the prior year. The decrease in costs was primarily due to headcount reductions and lower salary costs. There has also been a reduction in discretionary expenditure in all areas of Trintech over the last year due to the general economic environment.

Adjusted EBITDA operating expenses from continuing operations for the year ended January 31, 2010 were $19.3 million, a decrease of 15% from $22.7 millionin the previous year. Adjusted EBITDA operating expenses from continuing operations for the quarter ended January 31, 2010 were $4.4 million, a decrease of 14% compared to $5.1 million for the corresponding period in the prior year.

The provision for income taxes from continuing operations was $138,000 and $45,000 for the year and quarter ended January 31, 2010, respectively, compared to a credit of $356,000 and a credit of $243,000 for the year and quarter ended January 31, 2009. The tax credits in the year and quarter ended January 31, 2009 were primarily due to a deferred tax credit in the US resulting from the finalization of the purchase accounting related to the acquisition of the Movaris business.

Trintech’s balance sheet remains strong, with cash balances of $20.1 million (including restricted cash of $170,000) as of January 31, 2010.
