Stuttgart, December 4, 2007 - Heiler Software AG, one of the leading providers of electronic product information solutions and catalog management systems, increased Group revenues in fiscal year 2006/07 (10/01/2006 - 09/30/2007) from 8.70 million Euro to 10.23 million Euro (+18%). The double-digit growth results from a strong increase of revenues in the fourth quarter from 1.93 million Euro to 3.10 million Euro (+60%). The growth stems mainly from license revenues which with 0.94 million Euro quadrupled in the fourth quarter 2006/07 when compared to the prior year and therefore reached a new record value. Altogether, license revenues for fiscal year 2006/07 increased from 1.76 million Euro to 3.02 million Euro (+72%). Consulting revenues for the fourth quarter 2006/07 also showed a strong increase from 1.02 million Euro to 1.43 million Euro (+40%). With 4.49 million Euro, consulting revenues for fiscal year 2006/07 stayed with 6% slightly behind the good value of the prior year of 4.79 million Euro. Maintenance revenues for fiscal year 2006/07 increased from 1.11 million Euro to 1.64 million Euro (+48%) and hosting and so-called Application Service Providing (ASP)-revenues increased from 0.74 million Euro to 0.88 million Euro (+19%).
The growth in revenues led to a further improvement of margins and to the best Company´s results since the initial public offering in the year 2000. Earnings before interest and income taxes (EBIT) improved from -0.30 million Euro to -0.17 million Euro and earnings before income taxes improved from 0.13 million Euro to 0.52 million Euro. Net income increased from 0.48 million Euro to 0.78 million Euro. Accordingly, earnings per share increased from 0.04 Euro to 0.07 Euro.
With liquid funds at fiscal year end amounting to 14.44 million Euro (prior year 15.45 million Euro) and shareholders´ equity amounting to 19.26 million Euro or an equity ratio of 87% (prior year 18.63 million Euro and 88%, respectively) Heiler Software still maintains a very solid financial position.
For the current fiscal year 2007/08, Management expects a double-digit growth - which is clearly above the software industry´s expected growth - and an over proportional increase in profits. For the medium-term future, Management plans an operating margin, being the ratio of EBIT to revenues, of 20%.
The complete annual report for fiscal year 2006/07 will be published at December 14, 2007.
