Proginet Corporation (OTCBB: PRGF), a world leader in multi-platform file transfer solutions, today announced preliminary (unaudited) financial results for the fiscal 2010 first quarter ended October 31, 2009. Proginet expects that total revenues for the quarter will amount to approximately $2.2 million, compared to $2.9 million in the equivalent period last year. With operating expenses for the quarter amounting to $2.1 million, the Company expects to report a net income of approximately $80,000, compared to a slight net loss in the prior year. The Company’s cash position has also improved to approximately $1.6 million.
"We had a good start to the year and are pleased to have had a second straight quarter of profitability," stated Sandy Weil, Proginet's President and CEO. “Sales were mainly from our direct business in the government and financial sectors, but we had solid contribution from our OEM partners as well.”
“We are delivering our OEM product commitments and we have also launched a new enterprise version of Slingshot which is gaining more direct and OEM traction. We continue to see pipeline development from our alliances with Attachmate, Software AG, Beta Systems, and our most recent OEM partner, Inovis,” he continued. “We are continuing to focus on being consistent and persistent in cost management and profitability.”
“Over the past few months we have continued to ‘up our game’ in the areas of product development, QA, Tech Support, and assisting our customers in meeting their unique business and technical requirements,” said Steve Flynn, Proginet's Chief Operating Officer. “We are very excited about delivering to our customers and OEM partners new product features, currently in the planning stages for CFI 7 which we plan on releasing in mid to late 2010.”
Proginet points out that all estimates are preliminary, and that differences may arise between estimates and actual results, which will be available when the Company completes its review of financial results for the first quarter.
