(TSX: TCS), an industry-leading supply chain management software company, announced today its results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2013, ended January 31, 2013. All dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian currency and are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and are unaudited.

Overall highlights:


--  A 26% rise in proprietary license revenue.

--  Continued to win in the SMB sector, with significant prospecting
    opportunities for warehouse management systems in this market space.

    Canada and the United States.

Highlights of the Third Quarter include:


--  Revenue was $10.4M in Q3, 2013 compared to $10.6M in Q3, 2012. The
    slight decline in revenue masks a 26% rise in proprietary license

    revenue resulting in a decrease in product revenue of 12%.
--  Services revenue rose by 4%.
--  For Q3, 2013 EBITDA was negative at $28K compared to EBITDA of $755K in
    Q3 of last fiscal year.

--  Net loss for the quarter was $543K or $0.05 per share compared to net
    profit of $305K or $0.03 per share for the third quarter of last fiscal
    year.

    end of Q3, 2012.
--  At the end of Q3, 2013 annualized recurring revenue in Canadian currency
    increased 4% to $15.4M from $14.8M at the end of Q3, 2012. Annualized
    recurring revenue at the end of Q3, 2013 represented 35% of the
    Company's revenue for the last 12 months.
--  Cash from operations amounted to $540K for the third quarter, 2013
    compared to $1.7M for the same quarter of the prior year.
--  Cash, cash equivalents and other short-term investments amounted to
    $7.7M at the end of Q3, 2013, compared to $5.2M at the end of Q3, 2012.

TECSYS also announced today that the Company's Board of Directors has declared a semi-annual dividend of $0.035/share, to be paid on March 29, 2013 to shareholders of record on March 15, 2013.

Peter Brereton, President and CEO of TECSYS Inc., commented on the results: "In Q3, we were pleased to see a significant number of new contracts from our client base and major wins in the health systems and heavy equipment dealer markets. We continue to be the market leader in health system supply chains in North America. Our year-to-date revenue and profitability are ahead of last year by 14% and 21% respectively. Our license fee sales are up 26% for the quarter and 70% year-to-date. Over the past year we have grown our human capital infrastructure substantially to respond to our growing demand for services. We have added 85 people and ramped up our expenses by $1.1M compared to Q3 of last year. Most of this was done over the summer and fall. It takes some time for this additional expense to generate revenue. Our strong balance sheet has allowed us to make this aggressive move. The opportunities ahead with our sales pipeline and prospecting business initiatives are both solid and continuing to rise. According to the leading industry analysts firm, the supply chain management industry outlook is positive and is expected to remain prosperous in 2013."

Highlights of the first Nine Months of fiscal year 2013 include:


--  Revenue for the first nine months, 2013 increased 14% to $32.6M compared
    to $28.7M for the same period of last fiscal year.
--  Profit from operations for the first nine months, 2013 was $1,012K
    compared to $720K for the same period of last fiscal year.
--  EBITDA for the first nine months, 2013 was $2,218K compared to $1,802K
    for the same period in 2012.
--  Net profit for the first nine months, 2013 was $704K or $0.06 per share
    compared to $584K or $0.05 per share for the same period of the prior
    fiscal year.
