As I indicated last quarter, our primary objectives for fiscal year 2016 are to achieve consistent operating performance and to deliver solid annual results.

“Our Medical Graphics domestic equipment, supplies and accessories revenue increased 26% compared to the second quarter last year. We had another solid quarter of competitive account conversions as we attracted 31 new customers from our direct competitors, generating $1.3 million in revenue compared to 13 wins and $470,000 of revenue in last year’s second quarter. We firmly believe that the value proposition of our premium products and services is powerfully demonstrated as we continue to attract customers from our competitors. In conjunction with our ongoing R&D developments and upgrading our existing loyal customers, we are building a solid sales pipeline and expect our domestic business will continue to be strong during the second half of the year.”

 

Additional Fiscal 2016 Second Quarter Data:

 

·The Attachment Rate for domestic sales, which reflects the percentage of Extended Service Contracts that were sold during customer equipment purchases, was 34% for the fiscal 2016 second quarter, compared to the overall fiscal year 2015 average of 32%.
·Current and long-term deferred revenue at the end of the second quarter was $7.1 million, compared to $6.5 million for last year’s second quarter.
·International equipment, supplies and accessories revenues decreased to $2.3 million, compared to $2.8 million for the fiscal 2015 second quarter. Medical Graphics’ international revenue fell to $863,000, compared to $1.47 million for last year’s second quarter due to weaker demand in all markets except for Canada. Medisoft’s international revenue increased to $1.4 million for the quarter, compared to last year’s second quarter of $1.3 million.
·Gross margin of 54.2% in the second quarter includes gross margin of 56.7% and 42.2% for Medical Graphics and Medisoft, compared to gross margin of 50.7% for last year’s second quarter, which included gross margins of 54.3% and 32.2% for Medical Graphics and Medisoft, respectively.
·Gross margin for equipment, supplies and accessories was 51.3% for the quarter (53.7% for Medical Graphics and 42.2% for Medisoft), compared to 45.8% for the prior year’s quarter (49.3% for Medical Graphics and 32.2% for Medisoft). Gross margin for services was 67.1% for the quarter, compared to 70.8% for the same period last year.
·Second quarter 2016 general and administrative expenses totaled $1.37 million, or 14.5% of revenue, compared to $1.42 million, or 16.2% of revenue in the comparable quarter last year. This decrease is primarily due to lower Medisoft general and administrative expenses of $214,000, and higher Medical Graphics general corporate expenses of $166,000.
·Sales and marketing expenses were $2.5 million, or 26.9% of revenue, compared to $2.0 million, or 23.0% of revenue in the 2015 second quarter. This increase is primarily due to higher Medical Graphics sales and marketing expenses of $384,000 and higher Medisoft sales and marketing expenses of $139,000.
·Research and development expenses were $678,000, or 7.2% of revenue in the fiscal 2016 second quarter, down from $734,000, or 8.4% of revenue in last year’s second quarter. This decrease is primarily due to lower Medical Graphics research and development expenses of $82,000, and higher Medisoft research and development expenses of $26,000.
·As we reported in our Statement of Cash Flows, $435,000 of the $474,000 provision for taxes in the first half of 2016 is a non-cash expense from the effect of our deferred tax assets. At April 30, 2016, we had remaining net tax assets of $2.9 million.

 

Mr. Austin continued, “Medisoft revenue increased to $1.62 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to $1.15 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 and $1.44 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015. Medisoft gross margin for the quarter increased to 42.2%, up from 32.2% in the second quarter last year. We continue to make progress in configuring Medisoft’s business for consistent operational and financial performance. As we enter the seasonally slow European summer season for Medisoft, we are focusing our efforts on improving operating efficiencies and placing greater emphasis on further developing our direct core markets in France and Belgium. We remain fully committed to establishing Medisoft as the leading cardiorespiratory provider in Europe. We have made significant progress to this point and expect our efforts to bear substantially improved operational and financial results in the coming years.”
