Alphinat has also pursued Cloud computing validations with major players in the industry in the USA as well as in Europe. The company is progressing in discussions with global partners for strategic initiatives that could lead to global distribution and sales.

Furthermore, Alphinat has made strong headway into partnerships for specific vertical markets with companies that have an established and captive client base. Management believe that these partnerships will reduce the SmartGuide sales cycle while multiplying points of contacts with potential clients.
For the quarter under review, the company recorded revenue and deferred revenue for a total amount of $471,208 (Revenue: $209,388 and Deferred revenue: $261,820).
For the 3-month period ended February 29, 2012, the Company recorded total revenue of $209,388 compared to $99,544 for the same period in 2011. This increase is due mainly to sales of new SmartGuide licenses as well as to increased revenue from maintenance and support resulting from the renewal of the SmartGuide annual license maintenance contract by the Direction Générale de Modernisation de l’État (DGME), the French government agency responsible for State reform, as well as by the government of Quebec.
Operating expenses decreased from $269,343 for the 3-month period ended February 28, 2011 to $255,175 for the 3-month period ended February 29, 2012. This variation is due mainly to the decrease in stock-based compensations.
