Plaintree earns $2.54-million in fiscal 2018
2018-07-30 14:11 MT - News Release
Mr. David Watson reports
PLAINTREE SYSTEMS INC. RELEASES FISCAL 2018 AUDITED RESULTS
Plaintree Systems Inc. has just completed a profitable year.
The Company filed today its audited consolidated financial statements and management discussion and analysis for the year ended March 31, 2018.
For the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company posted after-tax profit of $2,547,514 as compared to a loss of $(2,639,634) and revenue of $19,005,680 as compared to revenue of $12,844,110 for the 2017 fiscal.
"2018 was an excellent year for Plaintree with sales increasing by 48%. We are excited to announce that this dramatic sales growth combined with the divestiture of the Firetrucks division, had earnings increase by over $5 million.
It's important to explain that, starting in fiscal 2014 through fiscal 2016, the market for all of Plaintree's product lines were either stagnant or declining, said David Watson, Plaintree CEO. The Mining industry went into almost complete hibernation, the Aerospace industry began its cyclical move to offshore as much as possible and funding for firetrucks by municipalities continued to languish at lower than expected levels. This all began to change in fiscal 2017. Commodity prices finally began to recover and the Aerospace industry began its phase of reshoring its manufacturing.
This has not only provided us with the excellent 2018 results but also given us a favourable backlog to begin fiscal 2019."

NPT.C (Plaintree Systems Inc) Due Diligence Report Most Recent Financials + Management Discussion Highlights. Found On www.Sedar.com Year End Results Will Be Released August 2018 Symbols: Canada – NPT / USA - PTEEF Price: $0.165 CAD / $0.14 US Common Shares: 12,925,253 Options/Warrants: 0 Insider/Institutional Holdings: 6,024,676 or 46.6% Important Announcements From MD&A and Most Recent News Release: Last News Release: David Watson, the company's president and chief executive officer, commented by stating: "Plaintree's biggest product line, our mining domes, posted strong revenues this fiscal year and leave us with a substantial backlog for next year due to buoyancy in several mining sectors. In addition to this, the product lines for all of Plaintree's aerospace divisions have increased in profitability over the course of this year. I would be remiss if I didn't comment on the strong growth of our foundations for unstable soils and flood zones. After three years of investment in marketing and sales for this product line, it is expected that we may almost triple our previous year's sales." Q3 MD&A (Page 10): These consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As at December 31, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $3,458,891 and, for the period then ended, the Company had comprehensive earnings of $1,746,353. As at December 31, 2017, the Company had working capital of $10,290 and $NIL cash on hand. These material uncertainties may cast doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. However, due to the recent improvement in the financial performance of the Company, management is reviewing whether the going concern note remains appropriate and whether it should be removed from future statements. In assessing whether the going concern assumption was appropriate, management took into account all relevant information available about the future, which was at least, but not limited to, the next twelve month period following December 31, 2017 Financials (CAD) ASSETS Trade Receivables: $4,909,029 Unbilled Revenue: $184,431 Inventory: $1,772,214 Prepaid Expenses: $72,344 Property, Plant & Equipment: $4,696,703 Intangible Asset: $561,359 Total Assets: December 2017 - $12,196,080 (March 2017 - $10,342,103) LIABILITIES Cash Deficit - $1,119,642 Trade Payables: $1,647,113 Deferred Revenue: $2,215,186 Current Bank Note Payment: $1,148,831 Portion Of Long Term Debt: $45,000 Due To Related Parties: $554,447 Deferred Government Assistance: $146,000 Obligation Under Lease Capital: $455,519 Long Term Debt: $92,925 Due To Related Parties: $5,565,044 Total Liabilities: December 2017 - $13,564,220 (March 2017 - $13,456,597) Nine Month Sales Performance Revenue: $12,488,416 (2016 - $10,033,364) Cost Of Sales: $8,672,752 (2016 - $8,352,694) Gross Margin: $3,815,664 (2016 - $1,680,670) Net Income: $1,746,354 (2016 - -$1,039,871) Earnings Per Share - $1,746,354 / 12,925,253 = $0.135 Trading at less than two times earnings Management Discussion From Q3 2017 Overview Plaintree Systems Inc.
