Commenting on current year performance, Joe Mullaney, SofTech CEO since the March 2011 Recapitalization Transaction (described in the Form 10-K), said: "Fiscal 2013, our second full fiscal year since the Recapitalization Transaction, represented significant improvement on multiple fronts in our business including the following:

-- Experienced the first revenue increase in a current year quarter compared to prior year quarter from products and services since the quarter ended August 31, 2007;

-- Continued our investment in new products;

-- Won four new customers for our subscription based, Connector technology;

-- Increased EBITDA by more than 9%, cash flow from operations improved by a multiple of 10 times;

-- Secured a multi-million dollar, long term debt facility with reduced borrowing rates and principal repayments for two years;

-- Repurchased 16% of our outstanding shares in June 2013 (unregistered restricted shares held by largest shareholder); and

-- Aggressively pursued other alternatives for enhancing shareholder value while improving profitability.

In summary, we achieved organic revenue growth in Q4'13, strengthened our partnership agreement, improved our balance sheet while significantly increasing operating cash flows. Overall, a solid fiscal year and one that we believe we can continue to improve upon."
