Summary of Sales Revenue and Net Earnings:
Titan Logix Corp.'s sales for fiscal 2013 totaled $16,493,151, a decrease of
$1,448,606 from sales of $17,941,757 in the previous year. This represents a
decrease in sales that were 8% below the record sales achievements of fiscal
2012. Earnings before income tax, for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013 were
$4,276,895 compared to $4,558,703 in fiscal 2012. Net earnings and comprehensive
income were $3,242,765 compared to $3,870,780 for fiscal 2012. Titan continues
to be profitable for thirteen consecutive quarters.
The consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2012 have
been restated to correct an error resulting from a misapplication of the
variance between the Company's standard cost rates used in costing its inventory
and actual inventory-related costs incurred. The restatement resulted in an
increase to reported inventory of $287,235 and an increase to net earnings of
$213,071. This is a one-time error impacting only the 2012 fiscal year.
In the fourth quarter of 2013 Titan's sales were $3,843,329 a decrease of
$1,288,058 from the fourth quarter sales in the previous year. The decrease in
revenue through fiscal 2013 is reflective of the reduction from peak market
activity experienced in the second half of fiscal 2012. The net earnings in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 were $616,371 compared to net earnings of
$1,092,052 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. This decrease in earnings is
due primarily to the reduction in revenue and a reduced gross profit.
Titan's sales outside of Canada, primarily to the U.S., were $7,914,182 in
fiscal 2013, a decrease of 9% from the record sales achievements of fiscal 2012.
Sales in Canada for fiscal 2013 decreased by 7% to $8,578,969 from sales of
$9,264,226 in fiscal 2012. This decrease is primarily a result of new tanker
construction in our primary market decreasing from the peak levels of the
previous fiscal year.
Summary of Operating Expenses:
In fiscal 2013, total expenses were $4,691,819, a 3% decrease from $4,842,309
the previous year. General and administration expenses were $2,349,422 compared
to $2,370,093 in fiscal 2012. Marketing and sales expenses were $1,783,995
compared to $1,638,066 in the previous year. Engineering expenses were $600,050
compared to $739,919 for the previous year. Total engineering expenditures prior
to the capitalization of development costs and the recording of recoveries for
funding received were $1,557,237 for fiscal 2013 compared to $1,061,661 for the
previous fiscal year. Titan had a gain on foreign exchange of $137,231 due to
changes in the value of the Canadian dollar as compared to a loss in fiscal 2012
of $18,936.
Financial Position
At August 31, 2013 working capital was $12,184,559 compared to the August 31,
2012 year-end balance of $8,844,641. Cash and cash equivalents were $5,060,168
at the end of fiscal 2013 compared to $5,060,318 on August 31, 2012. Short term
investments increased $3,497,009 to $4,197,009. Titan does not have any debt
except for trade payables, accrued liabilities and finance lease obligations.
Titan continues to maintain a strong balance sheet and a good cash position.
Business Outlook
Fiscal year 2013 was the year of the Stik(TM) with the release of the next
variants in the Stik product line - the Av-Stik(TM), Chem-Stik(TM), and the
UsedOil-Stik(TM).
The decrease in revenue through fiscal 2013 is reflective of the reduction from
peak oil tanker construction experienced in the second half of fiscal 2012. As
the market continues to experience this reduction, we continue to focus on
market penetration, retrofit sales, and diversification through development and
sales of our new products. We expect that revenue in the first quarter of 2014
will be comparable to or slightly better than 2013's first quarter revenue.
Titan looks forward to the opportunities available in Fiscal 2014. "The Stik
product line is key to Titan's success," said Greg McGillis, President and CEO.
"This will enable us to more fully diversify into additional markets, including
used oil collection, aviation refueling and chemical distribution."
The Company's strategy is to develop, manufacture, market and support the right
products to ensure its customers achieve a high return on their investment.
Titan continues to make sustained progress on the development and deployment of
advanced technology fluid management systems. In addition to ongoing Stik
development, we have strengthened our engineering group in order to work on
research and development of a next generation burner management system which we
expect to release in calendar 2014.

currently used in the oil and gas, waste fluid collection, chemical and aviation
industries.These technologies and their derivatives under development are
applicable to a variety of additional markets which Titan plans to expand into

of manual methods for measurement and control. Due to safety considerations, the
rising cost of many fluids, awareness and concerns about the environment and
