/THIS NEWS RELEASE IS NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES./
CALGARY, Feb. 13, 2020 /CNW/ - Sylogist Ltd. (TSXV:SYZ) ("Sylogist" or the "Company"), a provider of enterprise information management solutions, is pleased to announce its unaudited financial results for the first quarter of the 2020 fiscal year, ended December 31, 2019.
Q1 2020 Summary (Comparisons are to Q1 2019, unless otherwise noted)
Jim Wilson, President and CEO or Sylogist commented, "We continue to see recurring revenue growth and gains from our workforce efficiency initiatives as our gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA margins(1) have expanded. The Company continues to be aggressive in pursuing acquisitions that meet its acquisition thesis. We are also focused on several organic initiatives to boost recurring high-margin revenues.
This quarter also marks a transition in our executive bonus compensation agreements that are now based primarily on incremental improvements in consolidated revenue and Adjusted EBITDA(1) with the high watermark resetting every fiscal year end. To facilitate this change and for the Company to realize significantly enhanced Adjusted EBITDA(1) in the future, the Company paid executives a one-time payment of $12 million in Q1 2020. We believe that these new compensation agreements will be highly accretive to shareholder interests as Adjusted EBITDA(1) will continue to expand. As a result of this change, we saw Adjusted EBITDA(1) and Adjusted EBITDA margins(1) reach record levels in the quarter".

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(1) Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA per share and Adjusted Working Capital are non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA is defined as: profit for the period before stock based compensation, foreign exchange gains or losses, interest expense, bargain purchase price on acquisition, income taxes, acquisition-related costs, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA Margin refers to Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue. Adjusted EBITDA per share refers to Adjusted EBITDA per basic weighted average number of shares outstanding. Adjusted Working Capital is defined as current assets less current liabilities adjusted for deferred revenue.
This news release makes reference to certain non-GAAP measures. These measures are not recognized measures under Canadian GAAP, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by Canadian GAAP and are therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These measures are provided as additional information to complement measures under GAAP by providing further understanding of the Company's expected results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, such measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company's financial information reported under Canadian GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA per share and Adjusted Working Capital are provided to investors as alternative methods for assessing the Company's operating results in a manner that is focused on the Company's ongoing operations and to provide a more consistent basis for comparison between periods. These measures should not be construed as alternatives to net profit (loss) or cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of the Company's performance. For further information regarding non-GAAP measures used by the Company, please refer to the management's discussion and analysis of the Company, copies of which are available on Sylogist's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.
