"We are pleased with our fiscal 2007 performance. In spite of a
weakened US dollar, we generated record earnings before interest
and other expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA").
Our new contract bookings continue to be strong. Cash increased to
$1.9 million from $1.8 million last year and our debt decreased to
$1.1 million from $1.3 million last year" said Phil Weaver, NUVO's
President and CEO. "We begin fiscal year 2008 on solid financial
and operational footing."
"From a product perspective, we are showing traction and market
acceptance of our Maxadvantage solution. Our partner channel
strategy, introduced a few years ago continues to produce results
for the company."
"During the quarter the Canadian dollar relative to the US
dollar strengthened from an average of $1.10 in the third quarter
of this year to an average of $1.04 in the fourth quarter of this
year", said Carl Smith, NUVO's Chief Financial Officer.
"Sequentially, this had a negative impact on revenue of $150,000
and a positive impact on costs of $50,000. It also resulted in
realized and unrealized foreign exchange losses of $48,000. Despite
the total negative impact sequentially of $148,000, we maintained
profitable operations and have now recorded seven consecutive
quarters of net income."
