MONTREAL, CANADA--(Marketwire - March 29, 2011) -Comamtech Inc., (the "Company"), (PINK SHEETS:COMT), today reported its audited financial results for the year ended December 31, 2010. Unless otherwise stated, all figures in this release are in US dollars.

The financial statements include and reflect the operations of its subsidiary, Copernic Inc. ("Copernic"), before the reorganization and until the date of its disposal by the Company on November 4, 2010. Following this transaction, the Company became a "public shell" company with no operating business and will remain so until completion of the arrangement (the "Arrangement") with DecisionPoint System Inc. ("DecisionPoint") as further described below.

Financial Highlights

  • The Company sold Copernic for an amount of $6.01 million. The net book value of this investment was $4.91 million, resulting in a gain on disposal of its operating subsidiary in the amount of $1.10 million.
  • The value of the Shareholders' equity is $8.25 million as of December 31, 2010 comprised mainly of cash ($4.27 million), a convertible debenture ($2.73 million) and a balance of sale of receivables ($1.57 million).

Recent Highlights

  • On August 25, 2010 Copernic and N. Harris Computer Corporation ("Harris"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Constellation Software Inc., jointly announced that they had entered into a definitive arrangement agreement ("Harris Plan of Arrangement") with Comamtech under which Copernic would ultimately be acquired and taken private by Harris. On October 25, 2010, at Copernic's Annual General Meeting and Special Shareholders' Meeting, the shareholders approved the proposed transaction. On November 1, 2010, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice granted a final order approving the Harris Plan of Arrangement. Following that, the Harris Plan of Arrangement closed on November 5, 2010, and the shareholders of Copernic became shareholders of Comamtech through an exchange of shares on a 1:1 basis resulting in Copernic becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Comamtech. Comamtech retained certain non-operating assets of Copernic having a book value of $2,896,961. This acquisition was accounted for at book values using continuity-of-interest method of accounting.. Consequently, the number presented for the current year include those of Copernic's prior to the Harris Plan of Arrangement and the comparatives were those included in Copernic's audited consolidated financial statements as previously issued.
  • On October 20, 2010, Comamtech and its wholly-owned subsidiary 2259736 Ontario Inc.("MergerCo") has entered into an arrangement agreement with DecisionPoint, whereby Comamtech would acquire (through MergerCo) all the outstanding shares of DecisionPoint in a reverse take-over.The Arrangement will be completed by way of a plan of arrangement under Section 182 of the Business Corporations Act and provides for the amalgamation of DecisionPoint with MergerCo. In consideration for the amalgamation, shareholders of DecisionPoint will exchange all of their shares of DecisionPoint into common shares of Comamtech, except that DecisionPoint shareholders holding its preferred shares will exchange such shares for preferred shares of Comamtech, which in turn, shall be convertible into common shares of Comamtech. On March 2, 2011, at the Company's Special Meeting of Shareholders, the shareholders approved the proposed transaction. On March 23, 2011, the Company announced that it had adjourned the request for final order and entered into a second amendment to the Arrangement including an amended plan of arrangement. The amendments to the Arrangement require a new special meeting of the shareholders of Comamtech to approve the revised plan of arrangement.
