CNWT Cistera Networks Inc Company (CE)

Cistera Networks® (OTCBB: CNWT), a leading provider of enterprise application platforms and engines for Internet Protocol (IP) Communications, today reported results for the three months and fiscal year ended September 30th, 2009 (all figures in U.S. dollars and U.S. GAAP).

Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 was $0.75 million, up 64% from $0.457 million in the previous quarter and down 41% from $1.28 million in the same quarter of last year. Net income for the quarter was $0.342 million, or $0.02 per share, compared with net loss of $0.347 million, in the prior quarter and net loss of $0.598 million, in the same quarter last year.

"We are very pleased to report a profitable quarter despite a very difficult economic climate," said Greg Royal, CEO at Cistera. "It is obvious that our restructuring is delivering positive results for our shareholders and that we are able to show a strong underlying business despite the current economic recession."

"We continue to make strong headway in the Federal, State and Local Government, and Healthcare markets and are positioning ourselves well for 2010. Maintenance revenues continue to grow and now constitute over $1.2M per annum of recurring business," says Royal. "We however continue to see market weakness in the US economy and do not expect business investment spending to recover until mid 2010."

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the third quarter were $0.355 million, up significantly from $0.347 million loss in the first quarter, due primarily to restructuring and a strong cost control. Gross Margins have improved from 63% to 73% of revenues due to a strong mix of software sales vs hardware sales.
