    Mr. James Matthews reports

    ARMADA RELEASES ANNUAL RESULTS

    Armada Data Corp. has released its annual financial results for the year ended May 31, 2016, and the results have been filed on SEDAR and are available to view on SEDAR and the company's website.

    Selected Annual Information


    Fiscal Year Ended May 31, 2016May 31, 2015May 31, 2014May 31, 2013
    Total Revenue $2,258,188 $2,008,772 $2,260,200 $2,587,922
    Income (Loss) before taxes $359,015 $(640,434) $(137,853) $(424,721)
    Income Taxes $75,468 NIL $(102,289) $(122,504)
    Comprehensive Income (Loss) after Taxes $283,547 $(640,434) $(240,142) $(547,225)
    Comprehensive Income (Loss) per share $0.02 $(0.04) $(0.01) $(0.03)

    The Company's total revenue increased by 12% in 2016 from $2,008,772 to $2,258,188.

    The Company reported comprehensive income of $283,547, due to the following factors:

    Management's decision to close the brewing facility of Mister Beer on January 1, 2015 - the combination of no expenses for this division and disposal of its remaining assets meant that Mister Beer no longer had a negative financial impact on the Company.

    A sub-tenant was found for the brewing facility on November 1, 2015, to offset the rent expense of the lease obligation for these premises, and the Company is no longer responsible for utility, insurance and maintenance expenses for the same premises.

    Insurance claims increased drastically in May 2016 due to the Fort McMurray fires, and as a result, the insurance division revenue increased, which has carried over into June 2016 for fiscal 2017.

    Selected Quarterly Information

    Operations

    The Insurance Services division experienced an increase in revenue, from $909,656 in 2015 to $1,108,745 in 2016, or by 22%. The increase in revenue was the result of fires in Fort McMurray, Alberta in May 2016, which resulted in an unusually high number of claims processed.

    The Retail Services division revenue was down 30% to $227,038 from $323,012. The new CarCostCanada.com website and a new French-language site devoted to the Quebec market were not effective enough to stop the steady decline of membership revenues due to a competitor providing a similar service. Membership overall remained steady as a result of regular promotions and management decided to uphold a discounted membership fee to not lose further market share.

    The Dealer Services division revenue decreased from $695,017 in 2015 to $660,540 in 2016. Despite the larger decrease in membership sales, which drive the dealer lead generation program, and some manufacturer intervention on the part of an automaker that discourages their dealer-body from participating in any type of third-party lead generation program, this division managed to keep the reduction in revenue to 5%.

    The Advertising/Marketing Services division, which derives its revenue from the sale of online third party advertising on CarCostCanada.com and TheCarMagazine.com increased from $12,251 to $74,624. Management was successful in their efforts to search out additional sources of revenue in this division.

    The Information Technology division revenue decreased by 5% to $121,289 in 2016, from $127,649 in 2015. IT continues to offer technical support and web site hosting to hundreds of customers, and is developing new customer relationships on a regular basis, as well as offering new services for sale.

    The Mister Beer division's revenues were down from $107,790 to $17,578 or 84%. Direct product costs and labour decreased by 129%, from $166,603 to $(48,374). The net revenue for Mister Beer Inc. went from $(58,813) in 2015 to $65,952 in 2016. Management made the decision to close this division and production facility effective January 1, 2015. On August 31, 2015, the plant equipment was sold for $45,000, and on November 1, 2015, a new sub-tenant took over the premises originally leased for the brewery.

    Armada's consolidated statement reflects income this year, before corporation income taxes, of $359,015, compared to the loss before corporation income taxes of $(640,434) in 2015. Corporation income tax expense is $75,468 in 2016, compared to nil in 2015.

    Total expenses before amortization decreased to $1,857,802 compared to $2,137,421, a 13% decrease over last year.Management engaged in many cost-cutting measures to reduce expenses in 2016, including reductions in advertising, management salaries, computer consulting and rent.

    Accounts receivable increased to $417,171 as at May 31, 2016 from $267,182 last year, a result of the increase in Insurance Services revenue.Related party accounts receivable increased from $3,493 to $3,780.

    Accounts payable decreased 2%, to $250,001 as at May 31, 2016 from $254,762 a year earlier.Related parties accounts payable decreased to $537 as at May 31, 2016, from $1,469 last year.Corporation income taxes payables are $42,955 as at May 31, 2016 compared to $110,623 as at May 31, 2015. Related Party Notes Payable-current portion increased from 212,000 at May 31, 2015 to $281,000 at May 31, 2016, and Related Party Notes Payable - long term portion went from $81,000 at May 31, 2015 to nil at May 31, 2016.

    As a result of the income reported by the Company in 2016, the Company's deficit decreased to $(1,551,269) as at May 31, 2016 compared to $(1,834,816) the prior year. Earnings per share at May 31, 2016 are $0.02 versus $(0.04) per share at May 31, 2015.

    No dividends were paid out to shareholders in fiscal 2016 or fiscal 2015.Management does not plan on issuing any dividends until further notice.

    Liquidity

    Based on a year-end cash position of $231,242, accounts receivable of $417,171, accounts payable of $250,001, and current notes payable of $281,000, management believes that the company will remain in a debt position utilizing private financing to assist in ongoing operations of the Company.By closing the Mister Beer division, management has reduced overall expenses and commitments.The other divisions of Armada are poised for revenue gains this fiscal year as a result of new project and feature launches as well as more than one significant partnership that the Insurance and Retail Service teams are working on.Management believes that the data divisions will not only remain very stable and profitable but begin to make significant inroads in new verticals that will result from our partnerships, project releases and new revenue streams.

    Outlook

    The Company's outlook is to continue to increase sales, update and improve our data services products and services, and deliver significantly better results to our shareholders by way of the following:

    1. Build on the historical success of the Company's ongoing sales and marketing efforts focused on increasing sales at Retail Services, Dealer Services and Insurance Services. 2. Exploit market awareness and demand for new vehicle pricing information and dealer referrals that result from the additional competition within that market space; by putting more emphasis on outside partners, data outsourcing and our underutilized online magazine TheCarMagazine.com 3. Continue to improve our relationships with some of the largest insurance companies in Canada and partner with some of these organizations to produce new products and services for their vast client base. 4. Maintain operating expenses and achieve the economies of scales of an Internet based business. 5. Expand third-party fee-based online advertising by developing improved and more secure advertising

    The quarter ending May 31, 2016 finished with the Company recording revenue of $661,263 versus $463,056 last year, an increase of 43%. Income before taxes for the 4th quarter of 2016 is $97,589, compared to $(505,629) in 2015.

    Based on a year-end cash position of $231,242, accounts receivable of $417,171, accounts payable of $250,001, and current notes payable of $281,000, management believes that the company will remain in a debt position utilizing private financing to assist in ongoing operations of the Company.

Management believes that the data divisions will not only remain very stable and profitable but begin to make significant inroads in new verticals that will result from our partnerships, project releases and new revenue streams.

    The Retail and Dealer services division were competition-free for many years and had to re-group and restrategize in order to prevent further erosion caused by an aggressive competitor. Management expects CarCostCanada.com to start realizing market gains this fiscal year and with the overall new car market remaining poised for more growth nationally (and more specifically in the web-rich Canadian urban centres), the division plans to earn more members to enhance the new car buying process for the Canadian new car buying marketplace.

    The Company’s outlook is to continue to increase sales, update and improve our data services products and services, and deliver significantly better results to our shareholders by way of the following:
    1. Build on the historical success of the Company’s ongoing sales and marketing efforts focused on increasing sales at Retail Services, Dealer Services and Insurance Services.

    Very little for sale. Once we get Q1 numbers, the stock will gap up for sure.

    Some new CarCostCanada promo videos were released over the summer. This is a good sign since the last batch was made over 4 years ago when the old CEO was still running the company and ARD was trading around the $0.20 mark. Q1 results will be out either this Friday or next Monday.

    The videos were taken down at that link. However, they exist on another Vimeo channel and the marketing company's website.

    The company helps its customers buy a brand new vehicle for a lower price, but the struggle they faced was that many did not undersand their services. We were appraoched by CarCostCanada to come up with an idea to illustrate their product in a coherent and creative fashion, so we did it through humour. We produced a 5-part series that explains their list of services in a light-hearted and quirky approach; join Max and Bob to tell you all about it!

    ARD Q1 results came out early. The company earned $144,000 in Q1 or $0.008c EPS. They earned $283,000 total in 2015, so if the trend keeps up, the should be able to earn almost $500,000 in 2016 which is around $0.03 per share.

    The Information Technology division revenue increased 65% to $32,009 in 2016, up from $19,392 in 2015. IT continues to offer technical support and web site hosting to hundreds of customers, and to develop new customer relationships on a regular basis.

    Total expenses before amortization decreased to $432,503, compared to $447,913, a 3% decrease over last year. This is attributed to ceasing production at Mister Beer Inc. and continued cost-cutting measures implemented by management.

    Cash on hand increased from $115,573 as at August 31, 2015 to $256,580 as at August 31, 2016. Accounts receivable increased by 81%, $498,019 as at August 31, 2016, compared to $275,514 last year. Related party accounts receivable decreased from $8,484 to $6,340. Accounts payable decreased to $205,680 as at August 31, 2016 from $225,605 a year earlier. Related party accounts payable decreased to $nil as at August 31, 2016, from $1,017 last year.

    Based on a cash position of $256,580, accounts receivable of $498,019, accounts payable of $205,680, and current notes payable of $278,000, management feels that the Company is in a good position to meet all current and foreseeable financial obligations. With the closing of the Mister Beer production facility, expenses have been reduced. The other divisions of Armada are poised for revenue gains this fiscal year as a result of new project and feature launches as well as more than one significant partnership that the Insurance and Retail Service teams are working on. Management believes that the data divisions will not only remain very stable and profitable but begin to make significant inroads in new verticals that will result from our partnerships, project releases and new revenue streams.

    The Company’s outlook is to continue to increase sales, update and improve our data services products and services, and deliver significantly better results to our shareholders by way of the following:
    1. Build on the historical success of the Company’s ongoing sales and marketing efforts focused on increasing sales at Retail Services, Dealer Services and Insurance Services.
    2. Exploit market awareness and demand for new vehicle pricing information and dealer referrals that result from the additional competition within that market space; by putting more emphasis on outside partners, data outsourcing and our underutilized online magazine TheCarMagazine.com
    3. Continue to improve our relationships with some of the largest insurance companies in Canada and partner with some of these organizations to produce new products and services for their vast client base.
    4. Maintain operating expenses and achieve the economies of scales of an Internet based business.
    5. Expand third-party fee-based online advertising, by developing improved and more secure advertising methods.

    Selling has been constant over the last couple months, but I think we've flushed out lots of the old shareholders and flippers. Now there's a good support level at $0.12 and with another year of positive quarters coming, we should be able to trade at a more appropriate price level.

    Less than a month to go before Q2 results are out. There's a nice block for sale at $0.14 and then after that not much at all.

    The Insurance Services division experienced a 25% increase in revenue, from $280,719 in 2015 to $352,176 in 2016.

Cash on hand increased from $196,813 as at November 30, 2015 to $457,723 as at November 30, 2016.

    Based on a cash position of $457,723, accounts receivable of $334,324, accounts payable of $160,951, and current notes payable of $275,000, management feels that the Company is in a good position to meet all current and foreseeable financial obligations. With the closing of the Mister

    Beer production facility, expenses have been reduced. The other divisions of Armada are poised for revenue gains this fiscal year as a result of new project and feature launches as well as more than one significant partnership that the Insurance and Retail Service teams are working on.

    Management believes that the data divisions will not only remain very stable and profitable but begin to make significant inroads in new verticals that will result from our partnerships, project releases and new revenue streams.

    The Retail and Dealer services division were competition-free for many years and had to re-group and re-strategize in order to prevent further erosion caused by an overly aggressive new competitor. Management expects CarCostCanada.com to start realizing market gains this fiscal year and with the overall new car market remaining poised for more growth nationally (and more specifically in the web-rich Canadian urban centres), the division plans to earn more members to enhance the new car buying process for the Canadian new car buying marketplace.

    Outlook

    The Company’s outlook is to continue to increase sales, update and improve our data services products and services, and deliver significantly better results to our shareholders by way of the following:
    1. Build on the historical success of the Company’s ongoing sales and marketing efforts focused on increasing sales at Retail Services, Dealer Services and Insurance Services.
    2. Exploit market awareness and demand for new vehicle pricing information and dealer referrals that result from the additional competition within that market space; by putting more emphasis on outside partners, data outsourcing and our underutilized online magazine TheCarMagazine.com
    3. Continue to improve our relationships with some of the largest insurance companies in Canada and partner with some of these organizations to produce new products and services for their vast client base.
    4. Maintain operating expenses and achieve the economies of scales of an Internet based business.
    5. Expand third-party fee-based online advertising, by developing improved and more secure advertising methods.

    ARD hit a high of $0.20 today and then pulled back. Still cheap considering six straight quarters of profit.
