Magor Announces Fiscal Q3 2015 Results

- Large Account Wins Leading the Way -

OTTAWA, March 30, 2015 /CNW/ - Magor Corporation (TSX-V: MCC), a technology leader in visual collaboration solutions, today announced its third quarter (Q3) financial results for the three and nine-month periods ended January 31, 2015.

"I am pleased by our growing engagement and progress with large accounts across the globe," said Mike Pascoe, President and CEO of Magor Corporation. "These large global and government accounts are major users of video and collaboration services. While their buying cycles are longer, we have put in the effort to get to the 'approvals and standardizations' needed to move forward in many of them. As announced during the quarter, the approvals gained within the Government of Canada were an essential step in ensuring eligibility to participate in their efforts to transform Government IT infrastructure and services. Similarly, efforts with a large Government in the Middle East over the last year resulted in our largest software revenues in the Company's history during this quarter. These accounts and others have now put in place the procurement approvals needed for Magor to grow substantial new business with our technology. During the quarter, we recorded a significant increase in software as the overall percentage of our sales. Increase focus on software sales is helping our company become more scalable without the increased working capital requirement that would be associated with hardware sales. In addition, the recurring portion of our revenue continues to grow, which provides the business with more predictable cash flow."

"During the third quarter we also saw good progress with our partners to address the needs of Public Safety sector organizations to increase their ability to access and share real-time information across disparate teams," continued Mr. Pascoe. "Magor's core visual collaboration architecture is uniquely suited to support multiple sources of real-time situational data combined with interactive video at any level of resolution required. This enables national, state and local Law Enforcement, and other key constituents in public safety to visually share the data needed, as it happens, for intelligence led immediate and appropriate levels of response, transcending any geographical or jurisdictional boundaries. This Distributed Decision Network capability provides a powerful interaction tool to augment the Public Safety/Law Enforcement Command and Control. Global and Domestic Security as part of overall Public Safety is commanding a greater percentage of government funding, creating massive opportunities* for software solutions that address these concerns. We anticipate that this will be a key platform for strong revenue growth in the coming quarters."

During the quarter there was continued focus on corporate financing including support from several insiders. "I am pleased that my on-going financial support has contributed to the progress of the Company to win large accounts," said Terry Matthews, Chairman of Magor.
