Advantex Announces Results for the Three and Nine Months ended March 31, 2014

28/05/2014 1:00pm

Marketwired Canada


Advantex Marketing International Inc. (CSE:ADX) ("Advantex" or the "Company"), a
leading specialist in the marketing services industry, today announced its
results for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014. All currency amounts
are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.


"Our results for the current quarter are an improvement over the corresponding
period in the previous year, and we closed the gap between current year-to-date
results to the corresponding period in the previous year. This was an
achievement in a difficult operating environment reflecting primarily the
decision by our affinity partner Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce ("CIBC") to
sell a significant part of its credit card portfolio to The Toronto-Dominion
Bank ("TD"). We have a solid relationship with CIBC, and they support our
efforts to develop a parallel program for TD. We are in an advanced stage of
discussion with TD to operate a rewards accelerator program for TD's credit card
portfolio. A successful outcome will generate future growth for Advantex, and
counter the significant effect on our revenues in the aftermath of the decision
by CIBC," said Kelly Ambrose, Advantex President and Chief Executive Officer.


"The strategy of developing new affinity partnerships helped us financially. We
opened our relationship with Aimia Canada Inc. ("Aimia"), the owner of Aeroplan
loyalty program, in 2010, and current year-to-date this relationship gave about
12% of our gross profit, a 100% increase over corresponding period in the
previous year, which significantly offset the decline in the gross profit from
the program we operate in partnership with CIBC. The Company's refinancing in
December 2013 significantly improved the capital structure by reducing the fully
diluted common shares, and reduced the interest cost which in turn helped our
financial performance," said Mr. Ambrose.


"An additional positive development is the successful completion of our pilot in
partnership with Caesars Entertainment Corporation ('Caesars") and its Total
Rewards loyalty program, clearing the way for a full program roll out, in the
next twelve months, across certain cities in the United States. A multi-year
agreement with Caesars is under discussion. It will take time to develop and
launch this program, but it has a transformational possibility for Advantex,"
said Mr. Ambrose.


The financial results and their discussion are provided in the interim
consolidated financial statements, and management's discussion and analysis for
the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014. They are available under
Advantex's profile on www.SEDAR.com.
