2014
MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Apr 17, 2014) - Alphinat Inc.
("Alphinat") (TSX-VENTURE:NPA), a leader in innovative Software for
the Smart Enterprise™, announces its results for the quarter ended
February 28, 2014.
During the quarter
under review, Alphinat has focused its efforts on nurturing and
expanding its distribution channels and on diversifying its
geographic and industry sector presence.
Alphinat has
continued to make strong headway into partnerships for enterprise
license sales, OEM agreements as well as for launching SaaS
services. We have seen significant uptake in sales with partners,
with a growing number of installed clients in various geographies
and industry sectors. Furthermore, during the period under review,
Alphinat has been involved in the implementation of SmartGuide with
clients in various vertical markets.
During the quarter
under review, Alphinat has seen OEM sales by partner CSDC continue
to progress with the addition of clients in the USA and in Canada.
During the same period, a large municipality in France ordered
additional SmartGuide licenses. SaaS sales by partner Vicrea have
also continued to increase at a steady pace.
During the period
under review, Alphinat received an order for delivery of a
SaaS-based solution from a private sector enterprise.
The Workplace Safety
and Insurance Board of Ontario (WSIB) and a client in Saskatchewan
have confirmed the renewal of their respective annual software
maintenance contracts.
In January 2014, the
Company finalized a contract renewal with an agency of the
government of France that allows France's SGMAP organization
(Secrétariat Général de Modernisation de l'Appareil Public), the
leading agency of the government of France for State Modernisation,
to continue to leverage SmartGuide and SmartGuide PaaS Edition to
deliver citizen-centric e-government services. The contract has
been renewed for three years with an option for a fourth year. This
new contract puts Alphinat in a direct relationship with the SGMAP
and allows the client to acquire additional software licenses,
annual maintenance and associated professional services.
Profit before
financing expenses and amortization amount to $14,160 for the
quarter ended February 28, 2014. The loss for the 3-month period
ended February 28, 2014 is $27,782 or $0.001 per outstanding common
share compared to a profit of $144,945 or $0.003 per outstanding
common share for the corresponding period in 2013.

Additionally,
Alphinat announces the issuance of 198,989 Bonus Shares as set
forth in the Management Proxy Circular dated January 29, 2014. On
August 7, 2013, as announced in its press releases, the Corporation
closed the first tranche of a private placement consisting of Class
A Units, each comprising a Class A Debenture accompanied by one
Bonus Common Share per dollar of Class A Debenture subscribed and
Class B Units, each comprising a Class B Debenture accompanied by
one Bonus Common Share per dollar of Class B Debenture
subscribed.
The Class A
Debentures bear interest at 10% annually with interest payable
quarterly and mature on September 30, 2017. They are redeemable by
the Corporation on or after September 30, 2015. They were offered
at their face value. The Class A and Class B Debenture holders have
the right to convert the debentures at the principal amount plus
any unpaid accrued interest into the next equity issue of the
Corporation. In the event that the issue was offered at a discount
to market the Class B Debenture holders are not be entitled to any
discount. Conversion of debentures will be conditional to prior TSX
Venture Exchange's approval and the conversion price will be based
on market price at the time of conversion.
The Class B Units,
including a Class B Debenture substantially identical to the Class
A Debenture, were offered exclusively to Alphinat secured lenders
(the "Secured Lenders") who advanced $500,000 (the "Secured
Indebtedness") to the Corporation in October 2011. The Units were
offered in the context of a Debt Settlement whereby in
consideration of the cancellation of the Secured Indebtedness which
bore interest at a substantially higher rate than the Class B
Debenture, and the removal of the security for the Secured
Indebtedness, the Corporation issued Class B Debentures having a
value of 120% of the Secured Indebtedness being settled. The
premium was offered in view of the importance of foregoing
described benefits to the Corporation. In addition, the Secured
Lenders were entitled to receive one Bonus Common Share per dollar
of Class B Debenture subscribed, of which 154,761 Bonus Common
Shares have been issued at closing and the remaining 198,989 Bonus
Common Shares, will be issued only upon approval by the
shareholders at a special meeting of the shareholders. In addition,
the Secured Lenders were entitled to receive one Bonus Common Share
per dollar of Class B Debenture subscribed, of which 154,761 Bonus
Common Shares have been issued at closing and the remaining 198,989
Bonus Common Shares were to be issued only upon approval by the
shareholders at a special meeting of the shareholders. The annual
and special meeting of shareholders was held on February 26,
2014.
