Lingo Media Corp. (LMDCF) (LM.V) Continues to Generate Strong Profits with Q3 Net Income of $631,730

Lingo Media is teaching the world to speak English and making investors sing happily in the process. The Company has announced an astounding 441% increase in revenue, over the same period last year, for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Revenue was $1,203,201 for the third quarter compared to $222,468 for the same period in 2014. Operating expenses, however, only rose by 69%, from $272,871 in 3Q 2014 to $462,455 in 3Q 2015.

Net profit for the quarter was $694,300 as compared to a net loss of $(179,146) for the same period in 2014. And total comprehensive income for the quarter was $631,730 or $0.023 earnings per share based on 27.4 million shares. For 3Q 2014, there was a total comprehensive loss of $(255,659) or $(0.012) loss per share based on 21.9 million shares. Income before amortization, share-based payments, depreciation, finance charges and taxes was $740,746 compared to the loss of $(50,403) in 2014.

“Q3-15 is the fourth consecutive profitable quarter for the Company representing revenue growth of 441% and a significant increase in profitability year-over-year for the quarter,” stated Michael Kraft, President & CEO of Lingo Media. “It is noteworthy that the revenue and profit in this quarter was almost entirely derived from the rapidly growing digital-learning software division. The legacy text book publishing income is generated throughout the year but is recorded seasonally in Q2 and Q4 as royalty revenues.”

Lingo Media is an EdTech (educational technology) company that is ‘Changing the way the world learns English’. EdTech companies combine information technologies with pedagogical insights to increase accessibility to education and personalize the learning experience. Lingo Media offers courses in English both over the internet and in traditional printed form through its two distinct business units: ELL Technologies and Lingo Learning. ELL Technologies is a global online English-language training company. Lingo Learning is a print-based publisher of English-language learning programs in China. Lingo Media has established a strong presence in China’s education market of more than 300 million students by forming solid relationships with key government and industry organizations. The Company continues its global expansion with aggressive forays in Latin America.

As part of its strategy to penetrate the Latin American market with its online services, in July of this year, Lingo Media negotiated a contract under which students who complete ELL Technologies’ online English language programs will be given Sistema Corporativo Proulex-Comlex (Proloux) certification. Proloux is a subsidiary of the University of Guadalajara, Mexico’s second largest university. In addition, the Company is launching an advertising blitzkrieg in key Mexican cities. It has inked an agreement with ISA Corporativo which manages advertising for Mexico City Airport and the subway systems of Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey.

The Company is also making inroads in Columbia. It has secured software licensing contracts with the municipal government of Caldas Department, Columbia. And it has been awarded a large government contract with SENA, an organization under the Ministry of Labour of Colombia to build an expansive library of digital English language learning resources and lessons. Also the Company has been selected by the Peruvian Navy to provide software licenses to ELL Technologies’ training products. As well as these Latin American initiatives, the Company has been engaged in a broader-based program of development. It has recently completed the development of ELL Technologies’ Winnie’s World, in HTML5 for the pre-kindergarten and the kindergarten market.

Traditional hard copy products have been equally successful. The Company has been conducting extensive teacher training initiatives and workshops. And it has passed an important milestone by co-publishing the 550 millionth unit of its basic English course with People’s Education Press in China. People’s Education Press is the publishing arm of China’s Ministry of Education. Lingo Media seems determined to establish the position of English as today’s lingua franca.
