Montreal, July 5, 2018 — Tecsys Inc. (TSX: TCS), an industry-leading supply chain management software company, today announced its results for the fourth quarter and full year of fiscal year 2018, ended April 30, 2018. All dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian currency and are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
“Fiscal 2018 was very much a year in two parts. In the first half of the year, our results were bolstered by strong bookings in our complex distribution business, offsetting slowness in our U.S. healthcare business. In the second half, our healthcare business began to return to its pre-U.S. election activity. Overall for the year, currency headwinds trimmed revenue by $1.3M and EBITDA by $900K compared to the prior year. Adjusted for currency and the tax adjustment of Q4 Fiscal 17, revenue rose by 5%, while EBITDA rose by 28%,” said Peter Brereton, President and CEO of Tecsys Inc. “As the company enters fiscal 2019 with a steady pipeline, we will remain focused on welcoming the return of healthcare clients and executing on opportunities within our existing vertical markets and customer base, including those with an interest in pharmacy solutions.”
Recently, Tecsys won a design competition from the Supply Chain Advancement Network in Health (SCAN Health) whose mission is to address key problems, challenges and opportunities of high strategic importance for health systems in Canada and around the globe. “We are very pleased that SCAN Health selected Tecsys for the Alberta Health Services’ perioperative services design competition,” said Mr. Peter Brereton, President and CEO of Tecsys. “This represents additional validation of the Tecsys’ solution to improve the performance of perioperative practices. The judges that assessed the competitive solutions were composed of an international panel operating in the healthcare supply chain space. We expect in-hospital solutions will be a growing part of our business in the upcoming years.”
