Financial Results
Superclick reported net revenues of $1,447,855 for the first quarter
ended January 31, 2008, an increase of 90.1% from the $761,635 reported for
the same period last year. The positive variance in the Company's revenue
was driven by a 208% increase in installation revenue, and a 37% increase in
help desk revenue. Superclick added approximately 14,700 rooms to its help
desk for the period.
Gross profit for the three months ended January 31, 2008 and 2007 was
$646,734 and $370,992, respectively. The 74.3% increase in gross profit on a
year-over-year basis was driven by higher revenue across all parts of the
Company's business.
Selling, general and administrative (``SG&A'') expenses for the three
months ended January 31, 2008 and 2007 were $375,607 and $304,578,
respectively. On a percentage basis, SG&A for the quarter represented
approximately 26% of net revenue, compared with 40% net revenue for the same
period last year.
Research and development expenses for the three months ended January 31,
2008 and 2007 were $45,315 or 3.1% of net revenue and $37,684 or 4.9% of net
revenue, respectively. The three month year-over-year increase of $7,631 was
due primarily to the unfavorable foreign exchange effect as a result of the
stronger Canadian dollar compared to the United States dollar.
Superclick is pleased to report net income for the three months ended
January 31, 2008 of $178,348 or 12.3% of net revenue compared to a loss of
($61,471) for the same period last year. For the respective periods, net
income per share was $0.004 and ($0.002). On a fully diluted basis, net
