Management Commentary
"We can't be more excited about our growth. We delivered over 10 million scientific articles to over 1,000 accounts in more than 100 countries, which proves that what we are doing makes sense, a lot of sense, all over the world. It also proves that we have the team, systems and resources to scale and deliver solid solutions to organizations of any size anywhere in the world. The task ahead for us really lies in continuing to grow the customer base worldwide while continuing to innovate in the products and services we develop. Our main goal is customer happiness, and we delivered on that goal while at the same time dramatically improving our gross margins, reducing our operating expenses, continuing to innovate with new products and services for our global customers as well as improve our cash position. We expect our US operations to deliver approximately $1M in adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2013, which is approximately a $3 million improvement compared to fiscal year 2012," said Derycz Scientific President and CEO Peter Derycz. "In contrast to the success of our US operations (mainly the Reprints Desk brand), we've experienced continued difficulties in our TAAG operation. We have responded there by replacing the prior executive and accounting management as well as taking a one-time impairment charge in regards to that acquisition."
Alan Urban, Chief Financial Officer, added "About half way through fiscal year 2012 we completed numerous improvements in gross margin and as a result gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased 7 points to 18.8% for fiscal year 2012. This improvement, along with our ongoing initiatives related to expense reduction and optimization of business processes, and with the impairment charges related to the acquisition of TAAG, Pools Press, and intellectual property licenses behind us, leaves us well positioned for profitability from US operations going forward."

Use of Non-GAAP Measure – Loss from Operations before Depreciation and Amortization, Stock-Based Compensation, and Impairment Charges
Derycz Scientific management evaluates and makes operating decisions using various financial metrics. In addition to the Company's GAAP results, management also considers the non-GAAP measure of Income from operations before depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and impairment charges. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure provides useful information about the Company's operating results. The attached tables provide a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
