SofTech, Inc. (OTC: SOFT), a proven provider of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions today filed its Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission and announced its fourth quarter and full year operating results. In addition, the Company announced that since the end of the fiscal year it had completed an $800,000 private placement and a $750,000 long term debt agreement. Lastly, the Company provided estimated guidance for fiscal 2015 operating results.
Fiscal Year 2014 Results. For fiscal year 2014, the Company generated revenue of approximately $5 million, incurred a net loss of approximately $(748,000) or $(0.85) per share and generated EBITDA of approximately $3.1 million. In the prior fiscal year, the Company generated revenue of approximately $6.4 million, net income of approximately $360,000 or $0.35 per share and generated EBITDA of approximately $1.1 million. The financial results of prior fiscal periods are less meaningful for comparison purposes due to the Company’s sale of its CADRA product line during fiscal year 2014.
Fiscal year 2014 represented the thirteenth consecutive fiscal year in which the Company generated positive EBITDA as depicted in the following table (in thousands):
Non-Cash Expenses Fiscal Net Depreciation Interest and Year Income(Loss) & Amortization Goodwill (A) Tax Expense EBITDA 2002 $ (2,680 ) $ 2,927 $ - $ 1,288 $ 1,535 2003 (1,852 ) 2,323 - 1,140 1,611 2004 (1,853 ) 2,585 - 1,015 1,747 2005 (1,425 ) 2,533 - 903 2,011 2006 (1,333 ) 1,936 - 1,217 1,820 2007 (1,222 ) 1,469 - 1,460 1,707 2008 (306 ) 1,430 - 1,302 2,426 2009 1,321 532 - 776 2,629 2010 673 176 - 605 1,454 2011 (222 ) 595 355 538 1,266 2012 444 156 - 323 923 2013 360 341 - 357 1,058 2014 (748 ) 284 3,305 253 3,094 (A) Goodwill expensed upon the sale of the AMT and the CADRA product lines in 2011 and 2014, respectively.Fourth Quarter Results. For the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014 the Company generated revenue of approximately $878,000, incurred a net loss of approximately $(163,000) or $(0.19) per share and generated EBITDA of approximately $59,000. For the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year, the Company generated revenue of approximately $1.6 million, incurred a net loss of approximately $(51,000) or $(0.05) per share and generated EBITDA of approximately $284,000. Again, the comparisons between quarters are complicated by the fact that the Company sold its CADRA product line half way through fiscal year 2014.
In the fourth quarter, the Company changed its accounting policy with regard to the deferred payments of up to about $1 million due to the Company from the sale of the CADRA product line in October 2013. For the first two quarters after the sale of the CADRA product line, the Company recorded these deferred payments under gain contingency accounting. During the fourth quarter the Company changed to fair value accounting as detailed in the financial statements because management believed fair value accounting more accurately reflected the true economic value that resulted from the sale of that product line. Fair value accounting increased the gain on the sale of the CADRA product line by $452,000 as compared to gain contingency accounting thereby reducing the loss per share by $0.52.
Capital Transactions Subsequent to Fiscal Year End. As detailed in our financial statements, subsequent to the end of the fiscal year, the Company entered into a number of capital transactions that had the net result of improving our liquidity, significantly reducing our financial risk and enhancing shareholder value. These subsequent transactions are summarized as follows:
The capital generated from the new shares sold at $5.00 per share and the new borrowing arrangements with lower carrying costs and no operating covenants will be utilized to pay off the Company’s existing loan agreement that is due on or before January 1, 2015 and to provide increased working capital.
Fiscal Year 2015 Outlook and Certain Estimated Results for the Completed First Fiscal Quarter. Our operating budget for fiscal 2015 is for revenue of approximately $5 million, a break-even bottom line operating result with EBITDA of about $400,000. For the first fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2014, we estimate operating results of about $900,000 in revenue, a net loss of about $(600,000) and EBITDA of about ($400,000). The first quarter’s performance was weaker than expected although the pipeline of near term business is stronger than at any time in the last several years. We expect our balance sheet to improve by the end of the fiscal year with increased cash and reduced debt as compared to fiscal year end 2014.
“The current management team took control of the business in March 2011 after the Company had defaulted on its $10 million loan and the lender was in the final stages of foreclosure,” said Joe Mullaney, SofTech’s CEO. “Since then we have been carefully but steadily improving the Company’s financial position while attempting to identify market opportunities that leverage the skillset of our software engineers. The financing activities completed after the end of the fiscal year will give us the capital and the time required to continue these activities aimed at increasing shareholder value.”
Mullaney added: “The capital raising activities subsequent to fiscal year end, the accounting related to the sale of the CADRA product line and a delay in the commencement of the year end audit all contributed to the delinquent filing of our Form 10-K. We expect to request a five day extension for filing our first quarter 10-Q but to file within that normal extension time period. Q1 performance was disappointing although it is normally our slowest period of the fiscal year. The pipeline looks robust, our maintenance renewal rate has remained very strong and we anticipate launching a new product in fiscal 2015 for the consumer market.”
The estimated financial results contained in this announcement for the Company’s first fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2014 are preliminary, and are subject to the closing of its financial books and the completion of the customary quarter-end review procedures.

Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements relating to, among other matters, our outlook for fiscal year 2015 and beyond. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “projects,” “predicts,” “potential” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on estimates, projections, beliefs, and assumptions and are not guarantees of future events or results. Actual future events and results could differ materially from the events and results indicated in these statements as a result of many factors, including, among others, (1) generate sufficient cash flow from our operations or other sources to fund our working capital needs and growth initiatives; (2) maintain good relationships with our lenders; (3) comply with the covenant requirements of the loan agreement; (4) successfully introduce and attain market acceptance of any new products and/or enhancements of existing products; (5) attract and retain qualified personnel; (6) prevent obsolescence of our technologies; (7) maintain agreements with our critical software vendors; (8) secure renewals of existing software maintenance contracts, as well as contracts with new maintenance customers; and (9) secure new business, both from existing and new customers.
These and other additional factors that may cause actual future events and results to differ materially from the events and results indicated in the forward-looking statements above are set forth more fully under “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2014. The Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors that may affect such forward-looking statements.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release also contains non-GAAP financial measures. Specifically, the Company has presented EBITDA, which is defined as Net income(loss) plus interest expense, tax expense, non-cash expenses such as depreciation, amortization and the goodwill write-off related to the sale of our CADRA product line, non-cash loss (gain) and stock based compensation expense. The Company believes that the inclusion of EBITDA helps investors gain a meaningful understanding of the Company’s core operating results and enhances comparing such performance with prior periods, without the effect of non-operating expenses and non-cash expenditures. Management uses EBITDA, in addition to GAAP financial measures, as the basis for measuring our core operating performance and comparing such performance to that of prior periods. EBITDA is also the most important measure of performance in measuring compliance with the Company’s debt facility. EBITDA is not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the text of, and the accompanying tables to, this press release.
