IBT Ibex Technologies Inc

IBEX Technologies Inc. ("IBEX" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:IBT) today reports
a significant decrease in its expected earnings for the fiscal year ending July
31, 2014.


IBEX was recently advised by a major customer of its IBEX Pharmaceuticals
subsidiary that it will significantly cut back its purchases over the next two
years. Although IBEX is not currently in a position to precisely quantify this
reduction in sales, it is expected to have a materially negative impact on the
profitability of IBEX Pharmaceuticals and hence IBEX. 


"One of IBEX Pharmaceuticals' inherent risks has been its reliance on a few
products and a few key customers. The possibility that there might be a short or
long-term change in the needs of one of those customers has always been apparent
to us and was one of the reasons IBEX sought to expand its product line and
customer base via acquisitions, such as the recent acquisition of Bio-Research
Products Inc.", said Paul Baehr, President and CEO of IBEX.


As at the date of its last publicly-filed disclosure (Q3/Fiscal 2013), IBEX
reported cash, cash equivalents & short-term investments of $1,367,333 and
working capital of $2,570,941. IBEX expects that it has sufficient resources to
withstand the impact of this sales reduction throughout Fiscal 2014.
