Proginet Announces Preliminary Third-Quarter 2009 Financial Results

 

Garden City, N.Y.—May 13, 2009—Proginet Corporation [OTCBB: PRGF], a world leader in multi-platform file transfer solutions, today announced preliminary financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2009, which ended April 30, 2009. Total revenues for the quarter are estimated to be $1.8 million, compared to total revenues of $1.9 million in the equivalent period of fiscal 2008. The Company expects operating expenses for the quarter to be approximately $2.1 million, a reduction of almost $400,000 compared to the fiscal 2009 second quarter, and a reduction of approximately $800,000 compared to the fiscal 2009 first quarter.

“Revenues have not been at the level we had hoped for,” stated Sandy Weil, Proginet’s President and CEO. “The team has been working hard to close some key opportunities we are engaged in. Unfortunately, we were unable to make this happen by quarter-end. The economy is clearly impacting how companies are spending money and we’re seeing a direct effect on the Company’s results. We have continued with our plan to optimize the Company and reduce expenses. Operating expenses for the quarter have been reduced by more than 25% compared to the first quarter of 2009, and we continue to manage our costs aggressively.”

“There are a number of positives,” continued Mr. Weil. “Our partnership strategy is starting to show early signs of success. We executed major new OEM agreements with Software AG and Attachmate during the second quarter. These are both ramping up nicely with some good joint opportunities currently being worked on. In addition, Beta Systems, who were signed in the first quarter and have exclusive distribution rights in Europe, have successfully closed business including a six figure deal in Denmark, the associated revenues of which we have begun recognizing this quarter. We’ve also successfully implemented the RocketStream file transfer acceleration technology in CyberFusion Integration Suite (CFI)® and delivered a FIPS 140-2 compliant version of the software for the government marketplace.”

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 and its auditors complete their review of the Company's results for the third quarter of fiscal 2009.
