Michael Jamieson, MAM’s President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “Continuing to execute on our plan, we delivered solid results including top line growth and an improved gross margin, all the while continuing to reinvest in product development, adjunct sales and support functions to advance our transition to a SaaS and DaaS-focused business model. Growing our top-line while developing and deploying new and enhanced modules and features to our product offerings is a dynamic proposition and I am pleased that we continue to execute. We introduced our first subscription-based service solution over the Internet in 2005 in the U.K., and we began marketing our first cloud system to customers in North America in 2013. Since that time, we have significantly expanded our cloud-based offerings with SaaS and DaaS revenue now representing nearly 43.5% of our total revenue.”
“I am particularly pleased with the progress we reported with Autopart Online, our SaaS, cloud-hosted business management solution for the automotive parts distributors and retailers. In Q1 we passed the 1,000 active user milestone in the UK, which represents approximately 10% of our current customer base. With the current trend for MAM customers in the UK choosing SaaS over the traditional perpetual licensing option, it does demonstrate that the automotive market is embracing the technological advancements in the form of cloud hosting, and our transition to SaaS in the UK will continue.”
“In the US we have now introducedthe SaaS and DaaS products that we consider to be the core pillars of the success we have enjoyed in the UK. These products include Autowork Online, Autopart Online and Autocat+, all of which are making progress and generating increased levels of interest, we are confident that they will gain further traction in FY2015. We continue to expect adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) for the year to increase by approximately 20% from the $4.2 million reported in 2014.”

Net income for the quarter decreased by $83,000, or 12.0% to $609,000, or $0.04 per share for basic and diluted earnings per share, compared to net income of $692,000, or $0.05 per share for basic and diluted earnings per share, for the year-ago period.
