“The comparison of FY19 Q2 Operating Profit and EBITDA to prior year results is challenging given the impact of (a) $1.0 million of deferred professional services revenue recognized in FY18 Q2 resulting from the contract termination in that prior period and (b) costs related to the acquisition of OrderDynamics and stock-based compensation expenses of $0.2 million recognized in the current period. That said, we are pleased with FY19 Q2 profitability and will continue to invest in sales and marketing and research and development to take advantage of market opportunity” said Mark J. Bentler, Chief Financial Officer.
The Company has increased its dividend to $0.055 per share to be paid on January 11, 2019 to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 21, 2018.
