Sam Jackson, Managing Director, commented: 
 
 
 
 
"Trading for the period, as widely publicised across the sector, was difficult. 
However, I am pleased to report that since early spring 2009, although still 
subdued, sentiment is improving with a number of our retail customers expanding 
both organically and through acquisition due to opportunities presented by 
market conditions. 
 
 
We have invested throughout the current slowdown in key product areas in order 
to develop competitive and stronger solutions and, as a result, we are well 
placed to benefit as the market improves. 
 
With an exceptional client base, strong balance sheet and robust recurring 
revenues, I am confident of future prospects."

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT 
 
 
Our results for this year reflect the difficult trading conditions we have 
encountered as a result of the economic downturn. Particularly during the second 
half of the financial year, our customers became very cautious with their 
capital spending and consequently began to delay or reduce the value of their IT 
expenditure. We therefore undertook an early review of our cost base and put in 
place a number of cost cutting measures, including a 10% reduction in headcount 
in October 2008. Our year end balance sheet was strong, with significant cash 
reserves and only a small level of debt. 
 
 
Although IT spend has in general fallen sharply, the slowdown is presenting new 
opportunities. Some of our stronger customers are acquiring failing businesses 
and are able to consolidate the acquisitions rapidly and cost effectively using 
Prologic software and services, giving us additional business opportunities. For 
example, following their acquisition of 85 MK One stores, Internacionale awarded 
Prologic a GBP1.3m contract for store system upgrades in their newly acquired 
operation. 
 
 
Among many other smaller successful projects, following the implementation of 
T.M. Lewin's head office systems last year, we successfully completed a 
fast-track roll out of 140 tills into 68 stores. An enterprise system comprising 
head office and stores was also implemented at Famous Footwear and at Bamford. 
Financial Results 
Revenue for the year to 31 March 2009 decreased by 17% to GBP9.7m (2008: 
GBP11.6m) and included GBP5.1m of recurring revenues from annual licence fees, 
support and UNIFY managed services. There was a reduction in operating profit to 
GBP0.1m from GBP1.7m and a tax credit for the year of GBP0.1m (2008: tax charge 
GBP0.4m). Earnings per share decreased to 2.5p from 13.2p. 
 
 
Cash flow generated from operations was GBP1.7m (2008: GBP2.7m) and there was a 
net cash outflow before financing of GBP0.7m (2008: inflow GBP1.0m). The cash 
balance at 31 March 2009 was GBP1.3m (2008: GBP2.4m) and the year end net cash 
balance was GBP1.1m (2008: GBP2.0m). 
Dividend 
Although the Company believes that sentiment is improving, we need to ensure 
that sufficient resources are retained in the Group during the slowdown to 
continue to make the investments necessary to maintain our competitive lead. The 
Board have therefore decided not to recommend the payment of a dividend for the 
year ended 31 March 2009. We look forward to returning to a progressive dividend 
policy when conditions improve. 
Board Changes 
During November 2008, I was appointed non-executive Chairman, and Mark 
Quartermaine and Paul Clifford were appointed non-executive directors. The new 
skills and experience we have brought to the Board complement those of the 
executive team and will help in the further development of the business. Derek 
Lewis and Gareth Chick stepped down from the Board during November 2008 and we 
would like to thank them for their valuable contributions and service to the 
Group. 
Management and Staff 
The Company benefits from having a strong management team and experienced 
workforce that has been able to meet the challenges brought about by the 
downturn. I would like to thank all of our employees for their dedication and 
hard work during the year and look forward to their commitment in the year 
ahead. 
Outlook 
Our strong balance sheet and high level of recurring revenues provide us with a 
sound commercial base. Coupled with this, the significant investment we have 
made in product development means we are launching new functionality and 
services into areas of the market that we expect to show high levels of growth. 
We therefore believe that our business fundamentals remain sound and that we are 
well placed both to weather further market uncertainty and to take full 
advantage of an upturn. 
 
We will also continue to watch the market closely to identify any opportunities 
to make for infill acquisitions to augment the Company's skill set and increase 
market penetration.

MANAGING DIRECTOR'S REVIEW 
Market Overview 
The recent deterioration in our financial performance coincided with, and 
tracked the wider financial crisis in 2008. Activity fell very sharply as 
customers became increasingly concerned about the worsening conditions, and 
several significant prospects that were well advanced were delayed. Since early 
spring 2009 we have seen sentiment improving. Although activity is subdued it is 
by no means as low as during the recent unprecedented period. 
 
 
During the period, Prologic significantly increased its marketing activity. As a 
result, coverage in the trade press and at industry functions has greatly 
increased. Through regular press releases, white papers, opinion pieces and 
"thought leadership" initiatives the Company is effectively communicating its 
key strengths, which include stability and experience, product innovation, 
reduced cost of ownership and low risk project delivery. 
New Developments 
Despite tough market conditions we have continued to invest strongly in 
merchandising functionality, point-of-sale systems, eCommerce and the SaaS 
delivery model. We believe these initiatives build a firm foundation for a 
return to growth as the economic situation stabilises. 
 
 
Our consumer eCommerce platform is now fully demonstrable to prospective 
customers, allowing us to benefit from the rapid growth of online fashion sales. 
Ted Baker has already chosen this solution and, from the interest we have 
received from existing and prospective customers, we are confident of attracting 
further premium business in the current year. 
 
 
During tough economic conditions retailers focus on improving their 
merchandising practices. As like-for-like sales fall, fashion businesses become 
more focused on reducing markdown costs and maximising availability across 
stores. To address this pressing demand Prologic has developed new and 
innovative merchandising practices and has incorporated these into its products. 
 
 
This year we launched our "Software as a Service" model. The attraction of this 
for new customers is that it offers reduced initial capital outlay and risk. Its 
introduction may impact our operating profits in the short term, but we consider 
that the benefits derived from increased market share and recurring revenues 
will outweigh this. It will, in due course, also enable us to deliver our 
technology via UK and overseas resellers, opening up potential new markets. 
Outlook 
As a result of the underlying economic conditions, we expect our marketplace to 
continue to be challenging over the next period. However we remain confident of 
our market position, and we have a number of strong retail customers, some of 
whom are expanding rapidly as they take advantage of the weakness in the sector. 
We have invested throughout the slowdown in key product areas resulting in 
stronger and more competitive offerings to take full advantage of the more 
stable market conditions we expect to emerge over the coming months.
