 TORONTO, June 5 /CNW/ - 01 Communique Laboratory Inc. (TSX:ONE) today announced results for its second quarter fiscal 2009, which ended April 30th. Revenue for the quarter was $156,838 with an operating loss of $331,502 or $0.006 per share compared to revenue of $172,247 with an operating loss of $217,412 or $0.004 per share for the same period in 2008. On a year to date basis revenue was $223,101 with a loss of $636,513 or $0.012 per share compared to revenue of $259,729 with a loss of $509,426 for 2008. We completed the quarter with $1,330,112 of cash and cash equivalents. "During the quarter we continued with our 3 part plan to grow our company and increase shareholder value," said Andrew Cheung, President and CEO for 01 Communique. "We are selling the SecurePC and SecureKEY as part of our line up of remote access products. We continue to work with Hitachi in Japan as we wait for their sales and marketing efforts to pay off. We are continuing with our patent litigation against Citrix Systems Inc. (NSDQ:CTXS)." Operational Update: - During the second quarter we announced a "one-stop" bundle consisting of our I'm InTouch remote access service combined with a 3G cellular data plan that is very economically priced. Our direct sales team is marketing this bundle to potential customers across Canada. - Product Awards - As a testimony to the quality of our products we received another product of the year award. Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC) has named our I'm InTouch remote access platform as a recipient of a 2008 Communications Solutions Product of the Year Award. - Our direct sales team continues to market our SecurePC and SecureKEY along with the I'm InTouch suite of remote access solutions throughout North America. "We plan to continue using our direct sales team to sell to small-medium sized businesses ("SME") throughout North America," said Andrew Cheung. "We are encouraged by the interest that has been shown in our cellular-data bundle and our SecurePC and SecureKEY." Patent Litigation Update: In March 2008 the judge in the case issued a memorandum and order staying the case pending re-examination of the patent underlying our claims. The USPTO issued its first office action as part of the re-examination process in June 2008. We filed our response and Citrix filed their response. All the reports are available from the USPTO's web site. We are now waiting for the USPTO's next office action. The technology underlying the patent is very unique and has already gone through a vigorous prosecution process prior to the granting of the patent. We anticipate the re-examination will be successful and our plan is to continue the process to trial and if necessary any appeal by Citrix. Financial Highlights: Operating expenses for second quarter 2009 were $486,977 compared to $388,410 for the same period in 2008. The majority of the increase is due to an increase in a non-cash charge for stock based compensation of $83,101. The cash operating expenses to run our business for the third quarter 2009 are expected to continue at approximately the same rate as the second quarter. We completed the period with cash and cash equivalents of $1,330,112, a decrease of $345,618. Cash was used predominately to fund the cash operating loss, which after adding back non-cash charges for stock-based compensation of $84,851, an increase non-cash working capital of $100,340 and depreciation of $3,113 amounts to $343,878.
