CBP China Botanic Pharmaceutical Inc.

Certive Solutions Inc. (OTCQB:CTVEF) (CSE:CBP) - (“Certive” or the “Company”), is pleased to provide the following update on growth in its wholly-owned subsidiary, Knowledge Capital Alliance (KCA).

During the past year, KCA has been focused on selling its VMSG Dashboard branded performance management system to public health departments in the United States. The VMSG Dashboard is a performance management system designed specifically to assist public health departments in the development, implementation and performance management of the Strategic and Operational Planning process. The Dashboard facilitates quick and  accurate planning changes and is designed to allow both internal and external users to keep their plans up-to-date in real time. For public health departments seeking PHAB accreditation, the VMSG Dashboard has been designated as "fully demonstrated" by the Public Health Accreditation Board for Standard 9.1 applicable to most U.S. public health departments.

KCA’s customer base has grown from 27 health departments in 10 states to 55 health departments in 17 states in just over 10 months, and the opportunity pipeline has grown significantly from 45 to over 160 public health departments with an expected 300% increase in potential annual revenues. The VMSG Dashboard is a software as a service (SaaS) recurring revenue business model. As new public health units license the VMSG Dashboard, the recurring revenue grows. KCA’s recurring revenues have increased from $77,000 per year to $128,000 per year in the past 6 months, a 66% increase. KCA’s average client has 24 users. As a SaaS provider, operating overhead is minimized, and over 60% of all new gross revenue accrete to EBITDA and grow as revenue grows. An additional benefit as SaaS provider is KCA can continuously upgrade its service to all clients, responding quickly to the client’s changing needs. The U.S. healthcare market is changing as reform initiatives drive to lower costs, improve outcomes, and improve the general health of the population. U.S. public healthcare departments will work more closely with local care providers which Certive believes will provide opportunities for expanded services for both Certive and KCA. 

As KCA expands its presence throughout the nation, it is also expanding its presence at major annual conferences such as the National Association of City and County Health Officials which is attended by over 1,300 public health leaders. Recently the Company was invited to present to 44 health departments at TACCHO conference in Austin, Texas.
