Vigil Health Solutions Inc. ("Vigil") (TSX VENTURE: VGL) announces the results of operations for the quarter ending September 30, 2009.

Business highlights

- Increased sales bookings 17% over Q2FYE09 to $1.36 million

- Grew revenue 16% over Q2FYE09 to $1.19 million in Q2FYE10

- Signed $770 thousand contract with corporate client, the largest deal in Company history

- Added a new corporate client bringing the total number of corporate clients to 19

- Reduced Adjusted Operating Loss by 95% to $20 thousand (compared to $428 thousand for the six months ended September 30, 2008)

"The two summer months of the second quarter saw slower than historical activity for the Company. Despite this, we had a very strong September and grew revenue and sales bookings in the quarter," stated Troy Griffiths, President and CEO of Vigil Health Solutions Inc. "While the economic conditions are only beginning to recover, I do believe we are benefiting from not only the general improvements in the economy but also the strength of the senior living sector as compared to other industries."

Financial Results

Bookings for the quarter were $1.36 million up 17% compared to $1.16 million in Q2FYE09. The increase in bookings is largely attributable to the large contract signed in September.

At September 30, 2009, Vigil had a backlog of approximately $3.18 million (including $1.15 million in deposits and progress billings, recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet) a 23% decrease compared to approximately $4.14 million (including $1.75 million in deposits and progress billings, recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet) at September 30, 2008. The decline is the result of more revenue being recorded than sales booked fiscal year to date. As well, with the current market conditions supporting more retrofit business over new construction there is a shorter installation cycle, which contributes to a lower backlog.

Revenue for Q2FYE10 was $1.19 million compared to $1.03 million in Q2FYE09, an increase of 16%. The increase in revenue reflects the larger size of the projects being completed. The average project size this quarter was $96 thousand compared to $65 thousand in the Q2FYE09. 10 projects were completed in Q2FYE10 compared to 14 in Q2FYE09. Project revenue made up 81% 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 wireless devices and communication equipment.

The gross margin percentage for Q2FYE10 was 44% compared to 43% for Q2FYE09. The gross margin is in line with management's expectations of annual margins of between 42% and 47%.

Operating expenses for Q2FYE10 were $607 thousand, up 4% from $585 thousand in the same quarter of the prior year. The increase relates to greater sales and marketing expenditures for trade shows, higher research and development investment and additional professional fees. The latter included higher legal and consulting expenses including negotiating sales contracts, exploring strategic opportunities and expenditures surrounding the Company's annual general and special meeting.

Losses for Q2FYE10 were $139 thousand, or $0.001 per share compared to a loss of $144 thousand, or $0.001 per share for the same period in the previous year. The decrease in losses reflects the increase in revenue, solid margins and stable expenses.

Non-GAAP Measure

For the six-months ended September 30, 2009, we are disclosing Adjusted Operating Loss, a non-GAAP financial measure, as a supplementary indicator of operating performance. We define Adjusted Operating Income as net income before, interest, income taxes, amortization, and currency gains or losses including derivative foreign exchange differences. We are presenting the non-GAAP 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-GAAP measure, may not be comparable to other companies and it is not intended as a substitute for GAAP measures.
