VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA today announces its unaudited
consolidated financial results for the three months ended March 31,
2008.
Significant Events:
- Continued transition to high margin software revenue, while
eliminating low margin custom content revenues.
- Signed distribution agreement with Bell Mobility.
- Signed second order with a large Canadian based wireless
communication company for Mobile chalkboard(TM).
- Signed new Mobile chalkboard(TM) agreements with companies
such as Blackmont Capital Inc., Strategic Investment Group and a
leading European car manufacturer.
- Released new version of Mobile chalkboard(TM) that expands the
software's capabilities so that 'pushcast' recipients do not have
to be on a corporate BlackBerry� Enterprise Server, enabling
'extended enterprise' communications with business partners,
customers, shareholders and other key stakeholders.
Chalk continues to transition to mobile and earned revenues of
$423,933 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to
$690,738 for the same period in 2007. Chalk earned revenues of
$147,365 for software and $224,355 for services for the three
months ended March 31, 2008 and $201,323 and $480,408, respectively
for the same period in 2007. The main reason for the decrease was
our move away from content production including in-flight video
production to focus on our software.
The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was
$2,199,974, or $0.01 per common share, compared to a net loss of
$2,178,528, or $0.03 per common share, for the same period in 2007.
The slight increase in the net loss was due to lower revenues
offset partially by lower operating costs attributed to lower
production costs and general and administrative expenses, higher
interest income, and lower accretion expense.
