Key Financial Information

Second quarter revenue was $1,944, an increase of $354 from $1,590 in the same three month period of the last fiscal year. The 22% increase was driven by the sales of work-alone safety monitoring products through the past year and their recurring service revenue, including Blackline's increasingly popular Loner Complete leasing program.

Gross margin for the quarter was $996 compared to $733 in the comparable three month period of the prior year. The gross margin percentage was 51% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to 46% in same quarter of fiscal 2015-the increase being attributable to service margin improvement.

Adjusted EBITDA for period ended April 30, 2016 was $(363) compared to $(357) for the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease in the adjusted EBITDA during the period was a result of increased wages and benefits due to the additional staff required to support sales growth, offset by the increased sales revenue generated in the period.
