Automated Benefits Corp. Increases Revenue 42% Q1 2012 vs. Q1 2011

TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwire – May 30, 2012) – Automated Benefits Corp.® (the “Corporation”) (TSX VENTURE:AUT), a software company dedicated to developing applications for the insurance industry, today reported revenue increased by 42% to approximately $2.36 million for the three months ending March 31, 2012. This compares to revenues of approximately $1.67 million in the same period last year, which represents an increase of approximately $0.69 million.

The net loss for the three months ending March 31, 2012 was approximately $1.16 million and represents a basic and fully diluted loss per share of approximately one cent. This compares to net income of approximately $57,000 in the same period last year, representing a basic and fully diluted earnings per share of approximately one-twentieth of a cent, and a decrease of approximately $1.21 million. This net loss includes transaction related expenses of $912,000.

The Corporation believes Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ is also a useful measure as a proxy for operating cashflow and facilitates period-to-period operating comparisons. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest income, taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment losses, stock based compensation, restructuring costs including general and administration expenses, and other non-recurring gains or losses including transaction costs related to acquisition. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ending March 31, 2012 was $(70,000) compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $104,000 in the same period last year.

“While we had revenue growth of 42%, the first quarter performance was significantly impacted by transaction related expenses,” states James R. Swayze, Chief Executive Officer, Automated Benefits Corp. “With the rollout of Symbility’s products to The Farmers Exchange in the USA, Direct Line Insurance in the UK, plus the acquisition of the claims business of Marshall, Swift & Boeckh, we anticipate significant growth in 2012.”

The Corporations operating subsidiaries, Symbility Solutions Inc.® (“Symbility”) and Automated Benefits Inc.® (“Adjudicare®”) report the following recent business developments:

• In January of 2012, Symbility announced that Farmers Insurance Exchange will be rolling out our software to the balance of their company.

The Corporation also announced today that 250,000 options were granted to an Officer in accordance with the Corporation’s stock option plan. Each option entitles its holder to purchase one common share of the Corporation at a price of $0.46 per share for a period of ten years from the date of grant. The options will vest in three equal tranches with one-third vesting immediately, one-third vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date, and one-third vesting on the second anniversary of the grant date. The granting of the stock options is subject to regulatory approval.

On May 29, 2012, 4,443,265 restricted shares were granted to certain staff, senior management and Directors of the Corporation in accordance with the Corporation’s Restricted Share Plan (“Restricted Shares”). Of these Restricted Shares, 2,823,625 were granted to officers and Directors of the Corporation. Each Restricted Share is subject to forfeiture as described below. For Canadian employees, the Corporation has agreed to loan each employee an amount equal to the employee’s Canadian income tax liability due upon the grant of the Restricted Share, repayable on terms equivalent to when the risk of forfeiture lapses. The approximate value of these loans is $160,000. There is no tax liability immediately payable for employees based in the United States and therefore no corresponding loan.

The risk of forfeiture of the Restricted Share lapses in accordance with the terms of the Restricted Share Plan. Each grant consists of three equal tranches with different forfeiture criteria. Tranche 1 of the Restricted Shares will have 20% of the risk of forfeiture lapse on each anniversary of the date of grant. Tranche 2 of the Restricted Shares will have the risk of forfeiture lapse upon the achievement of certain performance goals related to the integration of the operations of the Corporation and the Transaction over a period not to exceed two years from the Closing Date. Tranche 3 of the Restricted Shares will have 20% of the risk of forfeiture lapse equally over 5 years upon the achievement of certain financial performance based targets.
