BasicGov Systems, Inc. Reports Q2 2010 Results and Business Highlights

BasicGov Systems, Inc. (TSX VENTURE:BSG) ("BasicGov" or the "Company") today
announced its financial results for the three months and six months ended June
30, 2010. All amounts are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.


Revenues from BasicGov, the Company's cloud computing solution for government,
were $68,668 in the second quarter 2010 compared to $69,889 in 2009 the slight
decline is due to a strengthening of the Canadian dollar relative to the United
States. The Company's annualized committed recurring revenues, a non-GAAP
measure, are currently US$300,000.


"Our revenues have remained flat over the last year as BasicGov has shifted its
focus to larger cities, states and government agencies which have a
significantly longer sales and implementation cycle. Through partnerships with
Salesforce.com and Carahsoft Technology Corp., we can now offer BasicGov to
larger cities, states and government agencies in addition to our current
customer base of smaller cities and counties," said David Roberts, President and
Chief Executive Officer of BasicGov. "By partnering with Salesforce.com we're
generating more sales leads while their Force.com platform ensures that BasicGov
is scalable, reliable and secure. And, through our partnership with Carahsoft,
we're marketing BasicGov to federal, state, and local government agencies
through Carahsoft's General Services Administration (GSA) schedule."


At June 30, 2010, 2010 the Company's cash position was $95,601. In addition,
subsequent to June 30, 2010, the Company established a line of credit with
Pender Growth Fund (VCC) Inc. in the amount of $250,000. The first draw of
$100,000 was made on August 5, 2010. 


Operating costs grew to $282,234 in the second quarter of 2010 compared to
$270,911 in the second quarter of 2009. This increase was a result of expanding
our sales and marketing efforts and product development that began in the third
quarter of 2009 that was only partially offset by reductions in the cost of
customer implementation. The net loss for the second quarter of 2010 was
$243,164 or $(.01)/share compared to a net loss in the second quarter of 2009 of
$183,868 or $(.01)/share. 


Operating costs grew to $619,160 in the first half of 2010 compared to $516,258
in the first half of 2009. This increase was a result of higher sales, marketing
and product development costs that were only partially offset by lower general
and administrative costs in the second quarter of 2010 and reductions in the
cost of customer implementation. This net loss for the first half of 2010 was
$568,087 or $(.03)/share compared to a net loss in the first half of 2009 of
$383,590 or $(.02)/share.
