“In the fourth quarter, our revenues were within our guidance range, and our net loss and cash balance were better than our forecast,” said James T. Healy, president and CEO of LogicVision. “Throughout 2007, key customers renewed their contracts with us, some customers adopted our products enterprise-wide, and we signed new customers that could potentially grow into bigger accounts. As a result, our 2007 revenues increased 10 percent from last year, and new orders of $12.0 million in 2007 were 21 percent higher than $9.9 million in new orders in 2006. Our net loss for the year improved by almost 50 percent, due to the revenue growth and the 16 percent reduction in expenses we realized in executing our business plan for the year.”

“We entered 2008 with a 12-month backlog of $8.7 million. We intend to continue to focus on closing additional significant customer expansions and renewals in 2008, as well as closing potential new customers during the year. Our 2008 financial goals include recording solid year-over-year revenue growth, as well as achieving positive cash flow and profitability,” said Mr. Healy.
